My opinion of the VL2s has not changed. They remain in my R0 Historic LP. Since then, I have bought Stephens 1959JP, and am (still) waiting on a new VL61 set to try in my other Gibsons.

As for your Heritage 80, you can upgrade the pickups without worrying about compromising the value. Keep the originals if it makes you nervous, but it's almost certainly more with the Stephens pickups.

Ted,

The linked YouTube from around a year ago is really impressive--don't know if those are the Stephens Design VL2's or not. Now that some time has passed, how are you feeling about the VL2's? I recently rekindled my 'Beano interest', as well as getting back my Les Paul Standard Heritage-80 from my brother who has had it for 20 years (which helped). But, as reluctant as I am to put a soldering iron to a somewhat historic guitar, the pickups aren't quite the flavor I want. Advice?

no treblebooster for authentic EC tones. Try a jtm45 w/o mixer cap or try the bright ch with mixer cap and turn it up
