Guitar
Not a lot of love for these Norlin-era bolt on early-80's guitars in the collector's market but those who've played them know that these are good solid players, A lot of owners replaced the original pickups that came in these with Bartolini's or EMG's (like this one). But of course back in the crazy 80's everyone replaced the stock pickups in their guitars - we just did - admit it, you did too. 'Nuff said.
