Hi all,
I just got my R7 3-pickup Black Beauty a coupe days ago.
This thing has THE most awesome neck I have encountered!
The ringing sustain is awesome. In short, it's easy to see why everyone talks up these Historic models. VERY nice!!!
However, I have never owned a 3-pickup model before and the middle pickup will obviously take some getting used to. Mainly, it's my right-hand technique that is affected.
Question: Is this something I will quickly get used to? I LOVE the guitar in all aspects except for the occasional annoyance of hitting the middle pickup with the pick.
BTW, I also love the tone of these 57-classic pickups! They go VERY well with my Mesa Boogie amp...
Will I grow to LOVE my 3-pup or should I move to a 2-pup model?
