    Got a 99’ dot several years back that I’m going to put the Gibson 57’s in before I gift it to my grandson.

    The Gibson 57's were designed by Tom Holmes and as you hear in this video are awesome.

    I have the ES 335 Pro LTD in Iced Tea burst with Pearly Gates pickups. It is nice. I also like the Classic 57s and have them in a Sheraton.

      Hi Bro!!! I have a Sheraton as well. Do you think it really worth to exchange the stock pickups to Gibson Classic 57? I was thinking about it. Thanks!

      @@cleitonrocha81 yes i think so. I have two MIK Sheratons one with Classic 57s and one stock PUPs. Of course my guitars are older and they say the newer ones are better pickups. When i swapped my 88 Sheraton pups i had a luthier friend who happened to have handy some classic 57s off from a Les Paul and i also traded in my Sheraton pups so i got a very good deal and he installed them too. I can tell the difference in tone between the two. They were built in different factories but i think the tone differences relate to the different pups. The stock pups were not bad at all but Classic 57s seem better to me. There are options too for pups and i was thinking to go with Seymour Duncans on the other Sheraton but i have no rush to do it and the stock ones do not annoy me anyway. I would advise to swap if you intend to keep the guitar for a long time. If not the investment you make will only marginally increase the resale value. Some people swap the POTs and wiring too. All of these get you closer to a 335 and make a more enjoyable experience but you are still not a Gibson. It us worth the bthe tr

    Great pickups I was planning to put Duncan pickups on mine which are like a close cousin to the Gibson pickups (59's or like)

      I played Seymour Duncan 59 with good pickups too, but I liked gibson 57 better, so I decided to install them.

    Any reason why you installed the neck pickup backwards? Also your sunburst looks better than the one on my previous epi dot.
    Sounds great.

    🤔 should it sound like that ? The big boy distortion makes it sound not too good, depends on what you are using to make that noise possibly.

      I used a digital guitar combo fender champion 50 xl, I agree, it would sound better through a tube amp
