Gee....Thanks Pete...wanna trade?

 

[SBMM]

I've got a bunch of special ones coming with _flamed_ roasted maple necks... and they will have a push pull to split the neck humbucker!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

You mean these Pete?

 

[xjbebop]

That's what I get for being an early adopter....

I'm kidding of course (mostly...)

At least there's a price difference. Still a fabulous deal though!

I am very close to ordering one. I miss having a T-style. How close is that bridge pup to a tele?

 

[xjbebop]

A bit more Tele than normal bucker, but has it's own voice. Way more clean PAF than Tele actually.
It's quiet & rocks great (use that tone control!)

To my ears and amps, it's got a P90-ish vibe to it, but, still within that tele tone. Perhaps not as squwaky as a tele. I think that overall, the guitar really hits that Andy Summers kind of vibe with the perfect mating of the H in the neck and single in the bridge.

 

[edhalen]

I think it will make a solid blues guitar.

Crap, emergency vet bill just ate the guitar budget
