Hallmark Sweepwings
The Hallmark Sweepwings appear to have the same pickups as the Custom 60. Zero fret as well. Does the Sweepwing and Custom 60 guitars sound the same? Are there easily heard differences in sound? Seem to recall that Bob Bogle was involved with the original design.

There's a nice pearl white one on ebay right now:

Pickups don't appear to be the same as the 60 Custom's -cosmetically, at least

Re: Hallmark Sweepwings
Well...... I went to the Hallmark site and realized I should do a little more homework before posting!!!!
The Hallmark guitar is a Sweptwing, not Sweepwing!!!! Also a 25 1/2 scale and Veenture, you're right the pickups are different from what I can see. I did see the one posted about on ebay and was curious about them. I know the Custom 60 is great!
