Why has the bridge switched from the Hannes to the Hipshot? It's been a while since anyone commented on this but I can't find any information on the internet for the change :(
Hello! Is this an actual maple cap or a veneer only? How thick is the top?
Hi Alejandro, this body uses a quilted maple veneer top. It does not have a maple cap over the swamp ash body.
I have D’Addario nyxl 009, .011, .016, .026, .036, .046 set up on the 1-6th string. And a .60 and .70 on 7th and 8th (8th tuned to E). Currently the 8th string isn’t resonating and sounds dead even though it’s a brand new strings. What could be the issue with the 8th string?Should I increase/decrease string gauge?

I noticed it comes with .009-.072" strings. I just purchased one of these and will be doing some drop E stuff at times. I don't think the .072" will cut it at that low a tuning (either on intonation or tension). Will the nut be able to take a 0.076 or 0.080"? I'm trying to not have to make a trip all the way to my tech just for this unless absolutely necessary!
Anytime you change string gauges it is best to have your instrument setup for use with those gauges/tuning, this would including reworking the nut.
Could you swap these pick ups with Seymour Duncan Black winters? I have one of these and LOVE it but want to get another with those pic ups.
Shouldn't be an issue installing Black Winters into this, be sure to have a professional handle this for you if you are unfamiliar with the process.
