Check her out:

1997 LP Special, loaded with Lollar P-90s. I used it at my gig on NYE, and it totally rocks!

Cool lookin' axe bro' How about a tone report on those Lollars?

 

[Michael Patrick]

The Lollars sound great! Lots of beef, but they clean up well when you roll off the volume.

Here's a short clip I recorded with it:

I like it!

 

[ScreamingTrees]

Cool man! So, did it come with those tuners?

 

[Michael Patrick]

Yep, those Grovers were the tuners that were on it when I got it. What tuners would have been on it when it was shipped from the factory?

I think they put grovers back in 1997:

I thought they looked stock. I didn't see any extra holes or any marks on the back of the headstock...
