Members zygoat Posted December 6, 2011 Members Share Posted December 6, 2011 Gorgeous guitar, does it play well? +1000, that really looks nice man. I played a lot on my friend's dad's early 90s Tokai strat and they are solid! Put some nice PAFs in there and you're golden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members arthurdent'd Posted December 6, 2011 Members Share Posted December 6, 2011 IMO the Les Paul Custom and the Stratocaster are guitar design perfection. agreed, minus the Stratocaster part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Coach Posted December 6, 2011 Members Share Posted December 6, 2011 Customs are solid mahogany and with an ebony fretboard? Different enough from a standard to warrant both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members six acre lake Posted December 6, 2011 Members Share Posted December 6, 2011 Now I can get my Fripp on.

Members IRG Posted December 6, 2011 Members Share Posted December 6, 2011 335 is more versatile, I'll give you that A Les Paul with both pickups coil tapped, is highly, highly versatile. I know I can get a ton of different tones out of mine. I can get realistic single coil tones from both bridge and neck, or mellow jazz tones on the humbucking only neck, or heavy rock tones from the humbucking bridge, and anything inbetween.

I'm a sucker for bells and whistles on guitars The Epi Tribute models have the coil taps, plus it comes with Gibson '57 pickups in it. You'd have to do the mother mods though. Even cheaper is the Epi Traditional Pro, which has apparently pretty good pickups in it, also coil tapped. Might be worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
