    I haven't had it in ages, and I'm not a huge fan of EMG pickups but I guess you find GAS in the strangest places! :pac:

    Aww, that was uncalled for. I just think Ken Lawrence is a good luthier..!

    Damn James Hetfield and his sunken career.. ruining my GAS.. :mad:

    Have to agree, the Ken Lawrence explorers do look mega swish.

    I'm sure it's a superb guitar but I just can't turn down the opportunity for a smartarse comment, it's a genuine disorder :D

    I think Fey's disorder is a lot more serious:

    only thing i like about that is the wood.

    Beautiful wood & cool looking headstock but what a horrible tasteless fretboard inlay!

    Yeah, not mad about the inlays. Apparently he can do anything you want for $6500

    I think for that kind of bread I'd be looking for some custom wound pickups - not EMGs!

    There's a Russian company that makes those for pretty cheap with any options you want. I think Eoin Madsen bought something from them
