Guest DustyDeviada Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 A three pup humbucker beast to a double single coil, that's a bit of a leap!Yep! In my opinion everyone should own at least one humbucker equipped Les Paul and one good single coil equipped Fender, but that's just me. The 52 reissue Tele will be a great guitar too I'm sure, but a shame you had to sell both Les Pauls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MKII Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 I'm just going to play it cool for awhile, maybe wait till after christmas before buying anything. Although I'm tempted by a Gordon Smith with P90's. Then, I could by a Matamp combo which would go well with my D*A*M MKII and Red Rooster.Then my gear would be British and hand crafted!

Having neither yet, it could end up being costly!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DustyDeviada Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Fair enough. I've never owned (or even played, I think) a 335, but I'm not sure it could do what a Les Paul does in terms of low end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 lesterps - does that Lester not weigh a ton?I just put the Burstbuckers back in mine and they were at least twice the weight of the EMGs.You've got three of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Gold Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Another cadillac! I'm still sold on the double hums though.So is there still hope of a Tele of some variety? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Another cadillac! I'm still sold on the double hums though.So is there still hope of a Tele of some variety?On the assumption you're referring to my post - you just never know!!!My mate Ali refers to ownership a Les Paul, a Strat and a Tele as having "The Holy Trinity"I'm tempted to chop in one of the Strats for a Tele, but despite having messed about with several LP's, ESP's, Ibanez's etc, I've had the Fenders for a while and they are just so damn playable. The Sunburst one is very bright in tone, but the Red one has real bite and sustain - extremely versatile.I think for me, owning a Tele would just be for completeness.

Old Gold Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Hah, I was aimed at MKII to be honest, but hell, banter's banter I've just got the strat for bite/LP for mellow double-team right now. You're definately right about having a Tele for completeness though. They're bloody seductive. A jazzbox or semi would be welcome in my collection at some point however...First thing's first though: an all valve amp is required. I'm thinking Orange Rockverb, although I'd love to try out a Fender Supersonic. Slightly rare around these parts though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
