More Pink
An Epiphone Les Paul, with particular nostalgic qualities to the members of the Plaid Guitar team. This guitar went through two major transformations in its life. We won't waste too much time or space on the first, but I will mention that during that transformation the tail piece was moved a considerable distance towards the tail end of the guitar. With the most recent transformation, the most notable change was of the color. The guitar has been spray painted pink, fret board and all. All of the original electronics have been removed. Both of the stock pick ups have been replaced with different humbuckers whose origins remain unknown. In addition to the two pick ups, this guitar is also fitted with a Meow Enterprise contact microphone. This contact mic is mounted in the guitar where the stock selector switch was originally located. The two pick ups and the contact mic are ran to switches from a Fender Jaguar, that enable the player to turn on and off desired devices. The output jack is ran straight of the body, and there are no longer any volume or tone controlling potentiometers. Overall this guitar is comfortable, solid feeling, pleasant looking, and generally nice to play.
*For updated information about the pickups, please see the comment section of this post.

cdog, i think the neck PU is from the bridge PU from a Jag stand (Dragster Jr?) and the bridge PU is the bridge PU from the Kramer strat-esque guitar
