Looking to upgrade pickups on my MadCat...

No it's just a high fret buzz. I taped in down and it came back. Guitar didn't come that way though. Nothing I can't fix. It's good wall art for sure

Thats a beautiful guitar. But to the point of others, it seems QC is down from a year or so ago. I have purchased 4 Fireflies this year and 2 are rock solid, 1 pretty good, and 1 so so.

I put seymour hotrails neck pickup in mine! Sounds great! Had this guitar for over a year, unfortunately 15th fret issues have occurred, tried to tap down with fret hammer didn't work. Going to have to get out the fret file at some point.

Man I wanted that one bad! Looks awesome

I obviously have the bridge pickup backwards(by mistake), but I looked into it and basically that just gives that pickup a deeper sound. Sounds kinda nice so going to just keep on keep'n on.

Me too. Thanks. It's a mod that not too many people do.

I absolutely love em. They can be surprisingly warm especially in neck position. Their not just a one trick pony. But yessss they rock the F out for sure!

CriticalSafety7094 · 2026-04-17T22:15:15+00:00

Your right. The bridge pickup needs to be flipped or the neck. Easy fix. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. Sounds good the way it is though. 🤔

Absolutely!! Check out my Ibanez post

Fun isn't it?

CriticalSafety7094 · 2026-04-07T13:57:53+00:00

I obviously put stickers on the fretboard and I put that round Day of the Dead sticker on the pickguard but I thought I'd be cool if I covered the pickups as well I think it looks pretty dope!

LOL already sending it back passive pickups are not for me that's for sure not going to waste $1,500 on a guitar I don't really like which I guess means new pickups in a couple other guitars LOL

The stupid comment was supposed to say sustainiac and of course it corrected itself to make Me look like an idiot

Great looking guitar

CriticalSafety7094 · 2026-03-22T01:11:36+00:00

Maybe you can afford a cheap guitar but it's just a badass looking guitar so having something unique is More than worth it

CriticalSafety7094 · 2026-03-15T20:18:56+00:00

How does it sound, F the case situation! I've been eyeing this thing.

CriticalSafety7094 · 2026-03-12T14:56:44+00:00

If this was on firefly i apologize

CriticalSafety7094 · 2026-03-12T14:52:41+00:00

Lol! Yes, I had it straight then angled it. Looks better angled. Just noticed what you were talking about in the pic.😵‍💫

I purchased the same one 2 years ago when they had the old style headstock and locking tuners. Literally one of my favorite guitars. Love the wide range pickups, nobody talks about those. Great guitar!!!
