Took my new custom telecaster out on tour and it has cemented itself as my number 1.

@Freeman looks sick and I am very jealous of the custom tele

@Freeman hard to believe that the guy slinging beers at a brewery is the same guy slaying on stage! Congrats!!

[Vik]

@goosehd we're all in disbelief at that tbh

@GraemeE moved my AC30 out of the rehearsal space thinking I could play low volume at home and it didn’t work so well hah. Scooped an AC4 for the home rig and I love it!

[GraemeE]

@indigo_nico said in Guitars anyone???:

AC4

Id imagine even that could get pretty damn loud at home

[indigo_nico]

@GraemeE volume at 2 haha

First gig in quite some time tonight, where I'm playing electric guitar — breaking out the dream team for my best John Frusciante impression ️

[mikebarhoot]

nice PRSs!

[WhiskeySandwich]

@mikebarhoot LOL even though i'm not sure i get the joke! Funny, I thought it was always PRS getting called "fake fender", or in my case "fake gibson".

[WithBongInHand]

@SamD Oh nice! I’m new and didn’t know this thread existed! I’ll definitely be sharing.

Nice guitars and good luck at your gig!

[mikebarhoot]

@WhiskeySandwich Fender is going after PRS (among other makers) for copying…

[WhiskeySandwich]

@mikebarhoot Oh yeah I heard about that. I'd forgotten. I recall them taking a lot of shit for that. They think there can be only one guitar manufacturer? Can't they just be flattered? I hear imitation is the sincerest form.

[SamD]

@WithBongInHand Cheers, think I'll take all the luck I can get — it's been a while! Look forward to seeing what you've got

[WhiskeySandwich]

@SamD i do love the look of both of those, especially that raw/natural strat. is it cleared? or naked?

[SamD]

@WhiskeySandwich It's a very thin satin finish over an ash body, so you can feel the texture of the grain. It was part of a limited edition American Performer "Raw" series from a few years back, but I actually bought this one from @AdamJ . It's really resonant without the heavy poly coating, and much lighter than the tele — which my old back doesn't complain about at all!

[WhiskeySandwich]

As for the PRS/Fender debate: my take based on a very limited experience is that I prefer the shorter neck of a PRS and find the pickup location on the Fender a bit in the way for my strumming. I have no idea why but Fenders sound totally different too and i'm sure others have more eloquently described it, but to me its more tinny/raspy/thinner/springy and my PRS sounds fatter/rounder/but also cleaner. Anybody care to teach me about it?
