After obtaining a beautiful guitar through a Craigslist trade I was immediately disappointed with the overall sound of the pickups. The Seymour Duncan “Blackouts” it was equipped with produced an extremely overdriven and distorted tone that was not at all what I was looking for, so I thought I’d try something new.

The following images will show how I transformed a cheap, crappy craigslist guitar into something I actually enjoy, inspired by Tony Iommi’s custom SG “Old Boy.”
