Members JRicoC Posted August 27, 2011 Members Share Posted August 27, 2011 I thought both setups sounded great; splitting hairs, really. I love your playing. I guess (if you're good) even a budget guitar with stock pickups can sound great ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Noak Posted August 27, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 27, 2011 I tried one the other day at BestBuy and it was really nice. The neck was 'over straight'/had back bow but aside from that it was lovely for very little moola. The thing about it is I have (for as long as they've been around) always picked one up whenever trying out an amp or something in a store. Now I just got tired of my old cheapo tele and decided to get one since I found one at a decent price.Neck had a bit of a bow to it and it played like crap, but a bit of adjustment on the truss rod changed that easily.

Members GilmourD Posted August 28, 2011 Members Share Posted August 28, 2011 Honestly, it actually sounded pretty good to me both ways (two different tones), but {censored}, DUDE!!! THAT WAS SOME TASTYPLAYING! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jamdogg Posted August 28, 2011 Members Share Posted August 28, 2011 Great review. I dig both pickups. Fantastic playing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ralph onion Posted August 28, 2011 Members Share Posted August 28, 2011 I bought one and the pick ups suck! Gave it to my son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members natasmi Posted August 29, 2011 Members Share Posted August 29, 2011 I wish more folks did vid's like this, great playing. I put on a nice set of cans on to listen to this and sadly, my 44 year old ears are worse for the wear. Not enough of a difference to me to justify swapping out the stockers, years of loud gigs do make a difference. Ear protection is your friend kids.

Members Floyd Rosenbomb Posted August 29, 2011 Members Share Posted August 29, 2011 Nice video! I like the aftermarket pickups better. What amp are you playing though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zappa74 Posted August 29, 2011 Members Share Posted August 29, 2011 They all sounded good. I'd be completely happy with the stock sound. Nice tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noak Posted August 29, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 29, 2011 What amp are you playing though? It's a Blackstar HT1-R combo through a home made 2x12 with V30's (THD copy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members benzem Posted August 29, 2011 Members Share Posted August 29, 2011 It's a Blackstar HT1-R combo through a home made 2x12 with V30's (THD copy). It sounds great. Nice playing. I liked both sets and thru my system could only maybe a slight difference in the bridge pickup, as you described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
