"Don't hate me for loving you" video.

It is light sunburst with maple neck, has 3 sets of pickups [I don't know the name - they look like single coil but they are "split" or staggered].

The top three strings pick up is closer to the bridge the lower strings closer to the neck.

I searched and couldn't find what model this is, or if it s a custom - anyone know?

Insight about what those pickups do for the sound compared to regular single coil?

Thanks.

It's actually a G&L guitar. Those are interesting pickups, which G&L calls Z-Coils. Check them out if you get a chance. Interesting look & tone, a bit different than the standard single coil, humbucker, or p-90 style we are all used to.

Hope this helps, Leo actually was the brain behind G&L, check em out!

Thank you. I have never heard of these, which is not surprising, just thought the setup was interesting.

They are cool arent they? I like the look & tone of Jeff's stuff.

I wonder what amps they play, I couldnt tell what it was in the video. Looked like a boutique one of some sorts maybe. Rockin country is really coming on strong now days.
