Members jerry_picker Posted September 7, 2006 Members Share Posted September 7, 2006 Originally posted by Frets99 Beautiful guitars Jerry-picker. Most of all that natural Tele!! Thanks! That's a Protone Fat Tele...high recs as a player! I used mine over the weekend at an outdoor gig during a set that included Cream, Hendrix, Pink Floyd, and Beatles covers. NICE! (And they used to be cheap .) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members heem6 Posted September 7, 2006 Members Share Posted September 7, 2006 Heavily modded Affinity Strat, MII. I played this at the store and had never ( in 30 years ) found a guitar that played this nicely. Wonderful neck contour, un-naturally low action. Bought it on the spot for $130 on Christmas Special. Since replaced the black bridge pickup with a White, H/O Distortion pickup. Here's a song I recorded with it: http://media.putfile.com/Look-what-the-dog-dragged-in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Brian Krashpad Posted September 7, 2006 Members Share Posted September 7, 2006 Do basses count? Mine is an 80's MIJ Squier Precision Bass. Also, used to have this 80's MIJ Squier Tele: Had to sell that one to get my Fender '52 RI Tele, but it was my main guitar for a couple years.

Members mmcquain Posted September 8, 2006 Members Share Posted September 8, 2006 I loved their ProTone series. I had 2 of the blue (really looked green) transparent Strats with maple boards and also loved the "Bordello Caster" Tele Thinline (seen below with my son at age 2 - he's now 7 so I guess this pic is from about 2000-2001). I wish I'd never sold this one but I needed the money to help pay for my CS-356. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mmcquain Posted September 8, 2006 Members Share Posted September 8, 2006 Originally posted by SpiritOfTheAge Count me in, i have a protone with tex-mex pickups installed. That is a great guitar. I used to have 2 of 'em (one was upgraded with Fender Vintage Noiseless pups). I love the look (green with the wood flame showing thru) and the feel of that neck (I generally like ebony the best and maple second). Those ProTones had some of the nicest necks I'd played on. The Koreans really did some nice work on the ProTones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members pzkpfw Posted September 9, 2006 Members Share Posted September 9, 2006 I really like the '51, so I'd buy one any day just to put a lipstick tube and a good humbucker in it, and a warmoth neck and maybe a better bridge or something. I think it'd be pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members missfortune Posted September 12, 2006 Members Share Posted September 12, 2006 A repainted Squier MIJ Strat: Scored it on craigslist for $30. It'll need some work--the nut is busted in two, the switch and pots are noisy, and the tremelo arm won't stay screwed in. Did I say $30??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
