Doctor J Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Took some better pics of some of the crew. Tele for starters

I love the fact that the controls on this guitar a limited to a volume control (which works smoothly across the whole range) and a big toggle switch that does nothing except light up the LEDs in the "exhaust"!

Doctor J Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Thank you both kindly, it's got the nicest neck of any guitar I've ever played. Of course, I now have to ask, what's number one?

waynepunkdude Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 This But this is my fave Fender guitar, should have bought one when I had the chance
Big_Stu Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) My other babies which don't get near enough use. At one time I took my Slade fixation way way way too far!!!!! When Bo Diddley was going to tour here I bought this in NYC as I'd been promised a meet with him at The Robin. Sadly he had a stroke before the UK part of the tour was due to start & died a few weeks later. There'd be very little RnR as we have it now without good ol Bo. It now has the Electromatics back in & the chrome mounts. Edited July 1, 2011 by Big_Stu
Darkstrike Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 Here's my old lawsuit Les Paul, And my recently acquired Telecaster.
Doctor J Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 P90s and Teles really work together, nice colour too. Next up from me, Tokai ES130

Big_Stu Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 [quote name='Doctor J' post='1289730' date='Jul 1 2011, 11:33 PM']What are the humbuckers in the Tele and SG?[/quote] original John Birch customs from the early/mid 70's. The Tele has a Supeflux, the SG has a Magnum (as used by Tony Iommi & at the time the highest output pickup by a very long way - now? I dunno.)
Doctor J Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 Ah yes, I thought they looked like Iommi's alright, very cool.

I tried the PAFs because his custom one had them, they sound very Les Paul-ish if needed. It's coming up for a year since I won this at a fund-raiser gig by Andy Scott of The Sweet. It hadn't been played for a while & needed a bit of work; just found that the tone pot is on the way out, but I'm not sure if it isn't on a PCB. Edited July 5, 2011 by Big_Stu
Doctor J Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 You just can't beat the look of a white Tele
waynepunkdude Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 It is a great little guitar actually, I've posted a pic of it on FB and had a few comments that I know I wouldn't have got if I had mentioned it was a squier, weird what a label can do.
