Hey I have owned a brownsville hollow body for a little over 6 months and I love it, but I looking into upgrading the pickups to fit a more modern pop/rock sound. I was just wondering if that was possible and if so what should I look into buying.
 
i have an old 335 knock off that i put classic 57s into and it sounds great. I was shooting for the closest to a real 335 and for a real cheap guitar the pickup upgrade had a huge impact. I'd definately reccomend them, although they can be spendy since they have that gibson name on them, i picked up the set i used off ebay after someone took them out of stock les paul.

The classic 57 has a nice clean tone, with some nice chiminess, probably not as high output as a set of burstbuckers or something that someone more suited to big distortion might use.
