Members honeyiscool Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 I will soon have seven basses/guitars, four of them Fender and three Squier. So no, you don't have too many. That said, to me, Fender isn't about Strat and Tele like it is for a lot of people. It's about the Jaguar and the Mustang, and I have one of each: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RufusFussbuster Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 Uh oh, I hadn't realized I have a Fender pile. Made in Mexico, Made in Mexico, and Crafted in China My wife had implemented a strict "No More Red Guitars" policy. Apparently, I'm destroying the decor of this room or some such. I broke the policy with that Tele Saturday. I love my wife. Thanks, Leo! Now I gotta go spread this stuff back around the room, so it doesn't look so much like a pile!

Members benzem Posted February 9, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 Jimmie Vaughan Strat Beautiful! Love that color with the maple board. What is the neck shape? Great pic! Had me confused for a sec:lol: How'd he do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members honeyiscool Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 Both of them are 24" scale, actually. The Jag has a pretty big body, so it's actually longer than a normal Strat from end to end, but the Mustang, that's a fun little guitar to play. Very light, and the neck is perfect on them.

Members kayd_mon Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 I love Jazzmasters - probably my favorite guitar! I always thought that if you were restricted to just one instrument company (for guitars and amps), Fender would be the the best one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought that if you were restricted to just one instrument company (for guitars and amps), Fender would be the the best one. Absolutely. Leo Fender designed some of the most classic instruments ever, and not only that, the Fender approach to electric guitars is the approach I like. The Gibson approach isn't quite me. Plus, you're not lacking in variety when you go with Fender. You have Strats in all different configurations, Teles in all different configurations, then you have Mustangs, Jaguars, Jazzmasters, Duo-Sonics, the variety is endless. The thing is, you can get an LP like thing going by going with an HH or a P90 Tele (some even have set necks), but trying to catch the Mustang vibe in a Gibson, is that even possible?

Members honeyiscool Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 you sir have good taste, and too the original poster... great guitars and amps. Hah, is that a '65 Olympic White with Lace Gold Sensor pickups? Mine are Hot Gold, if you can't tell. I've always loved the Olympic White finish, and I'm getting a Mustang Bass in olympic white to make up for the fact that I really shouldn't be spending more money on guitars at the very moment.

Yes, a '65 RI with a red in the bridge and a blue in the neck, i want a mustang bass as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members honeyiscool Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 Oh, how does that work out for you? I never liked the red much as a guitar pickup and it didn't stay in my (long-gone) Tele long at all. It found a new life as a killer bass pickup in a Bronco Bass, though. And here's my Musicmaster Bass: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cratz2 Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 Nice.... loves me some Fenders! I think I currently only own a stock (well other than pickups) Fender guitar, but I have three parts casters with Fender bodies and necks and another Fender body with a Warmoth neck. In addition, I have a JV series Japanese Squier strat that I love nearly as much as any Fender I've ever owned and a kinda ugly POS Squier. My next project will be combining a MIJ Fender body with another year MIJ Fender neck to make a Jimi Monterey Pop Festival tribute guitar. I currently have a Fender Twin II amp and Fender Tweed Deluxe and Tweed Champ clones. Overall, just half of my guitars and amps are Fenders so yeah... I like em.

Members D34dBaWx Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 I own 2 fenders and 2 squiers. All are very different sounding guitars. Other guitars just don't appeal to me really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members fiveoclockhero Posted February 9, 2011 Members Share Posted February 9, 2011 benzem - Of the amps you originally posted, which is your favorite and why? Could you describe their unique tonal characteristics? Which ones have the best natural distortion and do you like the Hot Rod's Drive channel? (a hotly debated issue, apparently) I'm trying to get a bead on the basic traits on the major Fender amps and it seems you own a few of them.
