Hi guys.
Well, thank you so much for all the replies and information. That's really very much appreciated. I haven't heard back from Customer Service yet but will be sure to pass on what they say if it adds anything.
I bought this from the 'Rockshop' chain in Christchurch, New Zealand. Must've...
Hi. I've asked about this guitar in the past but haven't come away with anything definitive. It's a '98 McCarty that I bought 'new' just eight years or so ago. It'd been in storage along with a second, fixed-bridge P90 McCarty at a large chain-store in New Zealand, and is now residing here with...
Spent a few days researching and have come to the conclusion that it's supposed to sound like that.. Neck and middle on the SS are just fantastic but I can't live with the bridge pickup. Strat bridge pickups are, I reckon, hardest to hit the target but I'll work on it a while and if all else...
The bridge position pickup on my Silver Sky is sounding thin and has an almost 'out of phase-like' tone.
Any thoughts as to what might be the cause? Was thinking I should maybe try re-soldering the connections?
Thanks.

By the way, I bought this 'new old stock' just a couple of years ago. It was one of two - the other non-trem - that'd seemingly been in storage for years.
Going to thin the herd but struggling to put a price on my '98 McCarty Soapbar Trem. With just 12 or 13 made it's quite a rarity but that's not the same thing as being desirable I guess. If you don't mind, could you give me any idea what I should be asking for it? Save for a single, tiny chip...
Hi guys.
Well, no. I didn't get it. Saw that a mate was getting into a bidding war with another guy and left them to it. My mate won. This is good news for two reasons. 1) I know where it is and have dibs and, 2) He'll likely sell one of his other choice pieces to fund it :-)
Thanks for the feedback (and the nice comment on the tone). Once bidding reaches reserve any Buy Now that might've been there disappears and the auction runs its course.
Watch this space... ;-)
This has come up for sale locally. Interested but haven't seen this model before. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
