Members voneville Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 Does it sound like a Tele? Or like a twangy strat? I might be experimenting soon. Was wondering if anyone had any experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarNed Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 I once installed a (already dead) dog's paw on my Strat. It was a long, long time ago, back in the day. It was supposed to be a sort of talisman, like Carlos Castenada wrote about in his books about shamanism. People thought it was cool. Then it began to smell. I had to remove it. Fortunately, it was not a permanent installation. I just used some twine and some braided hippy stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rocinante Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 I've been thinking along similar lines lately. I prefer the sound of the Tele bridge pickup but I like a Strat's ergonomics (balance, etc.) better than the Tele. Assuming the tonewoods are the same I imagine the new guitar would sound identical to a Telecaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, here's the deal: I used to dig hippy music(The Dead, Allman Bros, etc). I'm not going to bash to music, but this is a PERFECT example of why I'm not a hippy and while, I have strong liberal feelings and leanings, politically, I'd never call myself a liberal... WTF?!?! are you {censored}ing kidding me? I don't have an answer for your very intriguing question, but, Jesus Christ!!!! Why don't you take a freakin' shower and eat some {censored}ing meat, use some goddamn deodorant and shave your {censored}ing legs instead of putting some rotting piece of dead animal organ on your {censored}ing guitar!!! Gross... What's wrong with you people, seriously... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bjcarl Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 Originally posted by hondro shave his legs? SIGN ME UP Back when Jerry was alive(He'll always be alive, man:eek:!!!)... I saw the Dead 13 times...not a {censored}load, but enough to be somewhat of an authority... Jerry, Bob, Phil, etc ...ate meat, rode in limos, vacationed in the Caribbean, they were rich {censored}ing rock stars, despite what most hippies would like to believe... As far as shaving his legs...absolutely!!! Just like most hippy chicks should shave their moustaches... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faber Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 Re the original question: I havent had an actual tele pu in my strat, but I have played a strat with the Duncen Twangbanger in it, which is supposedly a tele style pu build to fit a strat without routing. It def had some of the tele wibe going, a brawnier, fuller sound than a stock strat, but it didn't sound *quite* like a tele. A very nice half way poit between a strat and a tele. I suspect, that you're not gonna get exactly that tle sound without the proper bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
