Ive been looking for a magnum for months and months, on the point og giving up and this , so I bought it now, lol, needs a bit of work here and there, but is all in great shape really, what a nice neck, they must have been realy something when new, I always like the shape, and promised ill get me one one day,
and here it is, mine. tehn to cap it all I found your site, unreal,!!!!!!!!
what a great site, loads of info, ect, as it looks like a bit of work with the soldering for me, but ill soon have it looking even better, and sounding, any ideas on a easy to fit replacement neck pickup, for her, and types of strings to use,
thanks, Mark

Teapot, that is cool. I have a Magnum III myself and it has thundering deep bass tone. Enjoy your new toy...
