So what exactly is the count for each combi? Has this been discussed before?

Like: Matching headstock, RW, piezo, trem - 13 pieces in total.

What's the count? Anyone?

There is a thread around somewhere...

I think non-trem piezo is 13, trem piezo is 26. I'm not sure about the breakdown with matching/non-matching etc, I don't think that was released.

I tried searching for it... came up with nada...

Then what about the pickups? I read somewhere that they were actually the Virtual Vintage set from DiMarzio. but again, I remember seeing somewhere that the bridge pup was a Vitrual Hot PAF. is this true??? Because it sounds more like a virtual paf instead.

Regardless, this is still the best guitar I've owned... Just wanting to know more information...:D

Lionel, the bridge pickup is indeed a Virtual Hot PAF, and the neck pickup is a Virtual PAF Neck. As far as the count goes, there were 13 with the piezo/hardtail, and 23 with the piezo/trem.

I don't know guys, I think the "matching" headstock looks really cool on the 20th. Especially how the birdseye shows through the coloring.

Ok guys, a slight variation change in my RW20th... I got this out to a friend in between diaper changes, and managed to thow this neck pup in. this look is now complete, and I owe it mostly to petruccirocks02, who actually helped me get this pup via special order...

Ok, enough talking. For those who are curious how a 20th looks with zebra pups, look no further...

Damn, that looks super tasty! I'm glad that the pickup got to you okay. Enjoy it. How's the tone compared to the stock pups?

The tone feels tighter and more focused It's nice, but very contemporary... I like the stock pups, but this offers something different.

I do realise something though... The same pups on the JP6 sounds totally different. Mainly because the JP6 is basswood...:D
