Strat or Tele?
>>65335619
For what purpose? They're both very versatile
>>65335568
Pic related for reference.
>>65335619
I love both, but Leo got the Strat just right.
>>65335649
I can't make sense of these inlays. Is it morse code?

>>65335649
Is that really a dildo?
I remember the person who bought that guitar because they posted some metal covers on YouTube. It was a dude with long blonde hair.. do guys really buy dildos? I didnt know that was a thing?
Friendly reminder: the kiddies who post in /gg/ threads have nearly ***zero*** experience concerning guitar. Playing, repair, new player recommendations, etc. The average age in these threads is around early 20s: green as shit grass.
If you have an actual question this is probably one of the most uninformed & least knowledgeable places you could ever expect a proper answer to come from.
Be weary of any advice given here as it's amateur & perfunctory at best.
Have a nice day.

No it's not the same, yours is that helpful australian guy, OP's pic is some dude with an ESP LTD, I think he posted some covers at one point, one of which was deafheaven, I remember that because deafheaven is garbage
>>65336118
Pros: they are all guitars
>>65336144
Yep that's the guy.
I like deafheaven though
>>65336177
Cons: they are all Fender guitars
>>65336118
Google. Only huge differences is that mustangs and jaguars are short scale. Everything else really just depends on the model.
>>65336199
>>65336144
pls post the video, maybe we could spot more dildoes in the background
>>65335979
No, the guy that has the guitars is ebowbro.
He's a helpful as fuck australian metalhead that had a flying V ESP too, not LTD and I doubt he would like The Dildo Escape Plan.
>>65336249
I second this. Need to compare my collection to his.
>>65336249
I don't have the link. I think it was private and he shared the link
I'll try and see what I can do later.
Btw, do guys really buy dildos? I never knew that was a thing
>>65336242
Aren't some mustangs 24.75" while older, student models are 22.5" ? Or is that some other mustang-like model ? (like the duo-sonic or musicmaster)
>>65336281

>All three Mustang-bodied models (Mustang, Musicmaster II and Duo-Sonic II) were offered with optionally the 21 fret 22.5-inch (or 3/4 scale) neck, or a 22 fret 24-inch neck, but the 24-inch was overwhelmingly more popular and 3/4 scale examples are rare.
>>65336281

Me neither, until I browsed /g/
I thought this place was just for straight white males
>>65336379
>the 24-inch was overwhelmingly more popular and 3/4 scale examples are rare.
I can see why.
I'd really like to see a reverse fanned fret 7 string, with an extra high A and a 25.5-22.5" multiscale, that's the only reason I'd buy something so short.
>>65336281
>Do guys really buy dildos
Most guys, yeah. I'm surprised you don't have any dildos at all. I mean, just sticking a finger or two up your ass isn't THAT fun.

I'm having tuning stability issues with my guitar when I use the tremelo. I think it has to do with the nut slots being too small. When i pull up on the trem the strings will stay slightly sharper, when i push down on it they stay flat.
It came with 9's on it which I have since upped to 11's without filing the nut. Do I need to file the nut?
>>65337276
All you really need is a allen wrench set, fret stuff, and nut slot files. If you want to set up other people's stuff then feeler gauges and radius cards are good.
Oh yeah and the soldering stuff. Buy some flux, and a set of helping hands.
As far as fret stuff goes polishing paper is nice.
>>65337361
Is this bait?
>>65337361
Yeah, but you only need to widen it so it's no big deal. Sand paper is enough. Best to do it with the strings loosened but still on the tuners so you can keep checking the width against your strings.
>>65336118

re thinking about it, it could be harmonics

What's strings size preference? I have some 10-52 i used to buy. Last place around went out of business, everything must go sale. I bought a bunch of regular 9-42 because that's all that was left. I put them on 1 guitar, i like them. How does one settle on a particular size?
>>65338751
No need to settle, really. Different strings sound different and feel different. Keith Richards plays with 7s.
>>65338751
String size doesnt matter unless you're tunning down
>>65338857
and if i'm tuning down should i buy thicker or thinner strings?
>>65338878
Thicker, unless you want them stupid loose.

>>65338949
>unless you want them stupid loose.
That's basically what Iommi does
>>65338989
yeah but i have fingers
>>65338844
It was more out of necessity and cause they were on a liquidation sale. i got the fat ones because when i was a dumb kid i thought light ones were for sissies. I continued to get them because i set the guitar i had up for them. I also downtuned, used like the fattest picks. Like some 14 years later i just still used fat ones. The 9s are pretty neat, they're easy as fuck to bend.
>>65338984
What kind of jazz?
I know Mike Stern uses a Yamaha Pacifica, which is similar to a telecaster, while Pat Metheny uses a Ibanez hollowbody with 1 neck pickup, and his tone is extraordinary and it's the most durable guitar I know of (touring wise).
In all honesty whatever feels right in your hands, you want your optimal playing when playing jazz, so get something comfortable.
>>65338844
I read an article about hendrix talking shit to jeff beck about using light strings. It prompted him to use heavier strings.
Same article said hendrix set a guitar's action like 1/2 inch high. Told people that's how all his guitars were. Just to fuck with them.
>>65335710
>>65338259
>>65338471
You guys are overthinking it. The markers are in the normal places on a two octave neck. The higher octave has four small inlays and one large one, the lower octave has four large inlays and one small one. It's just a design choice, it doesn't mean anything musically.
>>65338984

>inb4 wrong thread
>>65339232
Sorry for misreading your post.
Mike Stern and Pat Metheny like I said are great.
George Benson is cool too, an older player would be Jack Wilkins.
>>65338844
Keith Richards and Billy Gibbons use such light strings because their hands are arthritic clusterfucks at this point. Billy even has his Les Paul's completely hollowed out to lighten the load on his back during shows.
>>65338857
As much as it would make guitarists' lives easier, the gauge effects the sound a many ways.
Also this is getting pretty fucking straight boys

A PA system. You don't want to not be able to hear the drums. Get an amp that's just a bit louder than a drumset and you're good to go.

It does the things I want it to do.
Recording, touring, bedroom, etc. all have different needs.
Recording:
FX loop to experiment with pre or not.
The right tubes or the right sound if not tubes.
Touring:
The right amount of power and speaker versatility.
EQ can be simple, I'm not gonna be very picky here and I can always use a graph EQ.
Easy to repair, or sturdy af to never be repaired.
Weight.
I might even copy some recent dudes who use small pedal preamps and get a simple poweramp simply because of weight and ease of use.
Or racks, SS or Tube, doesn't matter.
I don't gig anymore anyway.
Bedroom:
Good tone while being quiet. An all tube 50W amp is never gonna hit the "point" of natural overdrive at a comfortable volume for example. Hell, even my 5W teletubie is too loud.
Small.
Preferably a combo instead of a head.
Also, I personally like tubes because I prefer to overdrive rather than use a "dirty" channel or distortion pedals to get the same sound in SS amps.
Although SS amps are great for clean playing at comfy volumes.

The Albert Lee would be cool looking if it had an appropriately shaped headstock to complement the body. Their headstocks are whats killing their looks in general though. But yeah, the Majesty, Armada, and St. Vincent models are abominations.
>>65341750
お、そっかー
あんまり好きじゃない、Rondoのこと

Thank you
>>65341790
I actually like their headstocks, it's what I would consider a more tension efficient version of the fender.
That Pucci signature was my favourite music man by far, with the piezo and everything. I almost bought one in... 2009-2010 or so, but decided against it in the end since I was traveling.
And the strat one is basically that, just with that weird teardrop like pickguard/pup plate.
In fact, I'll look for listings on that one, there might be one available and I'd buy it instead of another other "metal" strat I'm searching for atm.
>>65342026
They're functional with the straight string pull and all, but they're still ugly as fuck.
>>65341853
Objectively wrongです。I don't normally talk about it because people get mad, but, y'know, fuck you.
>>65341790
Dif guy but, I don't think the st Vincent one is too bad. I agree with your comment on headstocks.
I'd buy a guitar that looked like the st Vincent one of the body was scaled a little bigger and change the fret markers
I think the publicity it got, when it came out, as being for girls kinda ruined it
>>65336364
well Deafheaven... are we really surprised?
Not even hating. This kid is above average compared to the degenerates on here.
Beginner here.
I want to play one of my favorite songs, but I don't understand how to read what this guy on Ultimate Guitar posted. He put up the chords, but there are no chords being strummed in the song, but it's just single notes/strings (sorry if I'm not explaining this correctly).
The song is Apple Orchard by Beach House.
How do I read this? Do I individually play each string in each chord? It doesn't sound right. Or maybe I'm not doing this correctly.
pic related
>>65342417
google what a capo is if you want to play it with chords
buy one and put it on the 1st fret, you'll probably want to get one eventually anyways
if you want to play it how it is in the song, learn it by ear. beach house songs are easy
>>65342676
I have a capo and use it, I just don't understand how this guy is referencing the chords/tabs.
What does he mean?
But I guess I will learn it by ear for practice anyway. You have a good point.
>>65342883
the intro is the first two lines
the lyrics start on the F above you, changes to G at the word give, the G continues to the second line at "don't"
its kind of a stupid yet very convenient way to show chords in a song.
outro is the last 4 lines.
>>65341694
major pentatonic scale
What is the ultimate meme machine?
>>65342883
Even when there's no strumming, the music moves between chords. When the song is on a chord, the guitar part will play mostly notes on that chord. For example on the F chord, the guitar will play the notes F, C, A. Anything on the F major scale(or off of it really) is fair game though.
>>65343287
>he doesn't 11 string sweep
get gud faggot
>>65343287
Winrar. Wish I was autistic enough to count all those froots.
>>65343526
Okay, I think I get it now. So, he's giving us the chord to suggest they have the majority of the notes needed in the song, and all I would have to do is just filter those notes out, right?
>>65343800
Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say he's saying that, only that those are the chords of the song. It's not really his own interpretation or anything. Try fingering the chords and picking around for now. You can cop the feel of a lot of songs that way.
https://clyp.it/0chs0hnw
so i'm a mega poorfag and i play out of an orange practice amp i bought years ago. i've been messing around with just recording it out of the amp as neutral as possible and then running it through an amp simulator on my computer.
garbage playing aside could i probably get a passable tone out of the computer amps or should i give up now?
>>65344128
Outside of the clipping which you need to get rid of imo (unless you're looking for a lo-fi sound) it's kind of interesting sounding.
That said, if you want a normal guitar amp sound recording in the computer there's two options for you I guess:
Record out of the amp (does it have a "line out"?) and EQ it but don't use an amp simulator (otherwise it's two levels of amp and EQ and so on, hence why the weird but interesting sound you get).
Record straight to the computer from the guitar and use an amp simulator in there (VSTs applied over a direct recording in an editing program such as audacity/pro tools, or direct real time emulation like guitar rig 5).

Your collection was my dream collection as a teen.
I'm starting to realize it little by little now, and it feels weird (but fun) to acquire pointy metal guitars finally.
I also wanted an ESP Explorer (what were they called?), I really liked the design of the Atreyu player one all edgy with blood, and because of him I also liked the George Lynch guitars like the tiger and kamikaze ones.
And until Jackson started making 24 fret RRs the AL model was just perfect.

>I'm starting to realize it little by little now, and it feels weird (but fun) to acquire pointy metal guitars finally.
A lot of them are much more ergonomic than people expect. Vs are comfortable standing but tend to have garbage access or bad balance (exception being the SV and RR24), but Explorers are really comfortable.
>I also wanted an ESP Explorer (what were they called?)
The ESP EX or ESP MX250II? They have two Explorer designs if you don't include the Snakebite thing...
>And until Jackson started making 24 fret RRs
Jackson RR24 are really nice guitars, but ESP SV Standards aren't much more and blow them out the water.

If she goes bitch mode, she might want to have your gear or sell them for value.
So sell your gear to your best friend before you hand the divorce papers, then divorce her, and after that (you have to wait a bit) rebuy them (there needs to be a paper trail). You might have to give her the money from the sold stuff, but it's better than her lawyer selling them and splitting the money.

>>65341396
Sterling Ball thinks radically different equals innovation. I do like that they are including some features into every new model by default: stainless steel frets, 12db boosts on vol knob, coil split, etc. But some of their designs are plainly bizarre.
>>65341790
Majesty is odd as fuck but plays wonderfully. It's not until you actually play it that you kinda get why it was designed that way. I'm not sure if the black shovel was a good idea at all but they seem to have fixed that with the Artisan series. I can't complain about mine since I got it for much much less than what you find everywhere.
>>65342026
Love their headstocks. Would definitely recommend the JP series over any other Music Man. No matter if you care for DT or not, those guitars are really versatile and full featured and are a good deal second hand

Are vintage classical guitars durable or am I better off buying new? I'm not familiar with classical guitars.
>>65348072
>those guitars are really versatile and full featured and are a good deal second hand
I could have bought a new one at clearance for 800 euros, but didn't.
Now they are 1.2k used.
I'm a dumbass.
>>65349055
That's not vintage, it has cheap clear lacquer over it.
Some spanish/classic guitars have terrible action and the tuning pegs are shitty.
I actually would buy a yamaha or some big name one, and I'd try them beforehand of course.
I have had many, and really, handmade or local made from spanish or mexicans is really hit or miss because they are overpriced and lack good quality control, it's more "muh local delicacy" and blind pride.
Yamaha on the other hand sells concert grade spanish guitars and it reflects down to their entry level student aimed models which are also nice.
>>65349281
What Yamaha model would you recommend? I'm not exactly a beginner (been playing electric for almost 9 years), I just want a bit of change.
I was playing classical guitars at a store today and I honestly can't tell the difference between a $200 classical and a $800 one. The $99 Lyon one felt and sounded pretty shitty though
>>65349055
>>65349407
I'd give him 50-60. It's nothing special but it doesn't have a modly fretboard.
Just check the action before buying, since they don't have trussrods if the action is high, that's how it'll always be.
Things to look for in a classical guitar, since they have different qualities that might not be obvious, so:
Volume, it's hard to tell from the playing position but guitars do have a big variance in volume depending on their construction.
Action, terrible action makes for terrible chords and terrible playing, but you don't want it super flat like a superstrat because you lose volume (from buzzing).
Check the nut, cheap plastic makes tuning a chore because the strings get stuck. A nice silky bone or whatever material that isn't pvc is nice.
The saddle too, it can be replaced easily but you want something that lets the strings ring and sit nicely.
Neck is flat in the classicals, but it's easy to get it wrong and some chords can be unnecessarily hard to play.
In relation to volume, check that it has a nice bright tone but bassy in the 6th.
It has to sound like a beautiful wood chamber so to speak, like a classical instrument, if it sounds lame like a toy then it's not worth it.
Wood does play a role, Flamenco has a brighter sound but less sustain, Classical have a well rounded sound and more sustain.
This would be black magic dumb talk for electrics, but because these are acoustic, it is indeed important.
I had an used C40, it doesn't have a lot of volume and tone but the neck is comfortable. Paid like 30 bucks for it.
I'm not very well versed in models, but as with electrics, the sweetspot starts at around 300 for value for money with every brand basically.
I'd get a cheap one with good action, to see if I like spanish guitar, and then jump to a better one.
>>65349680
Thanks for the help. I asked the person earlier what model it is, but hasn't replied yet. I'll offer $50 when he does.
Thanks again.

Jesus Christ, yeah, you fucked up. I got mine second hand for $1200 and it was second hand but in excellent condition.
What would be the best cab to go with an OR100?
If my combo amp puts out a true 100w to the internal speaker, and has an extension speaker jack that runs in series with the internal speaker, wouldn't running an extension cab give me less wattage and therefor, less volume?
I'm confused as to why they would include this feature if it is completely useless

100W through more speaker surface is louder. Adding another cabinet means that the internal speaker will receive less power, but overall it'll be the same power going through more speaker, making it louder.

Does't really make you much less of a classical guitar beginner. For god's sake learn proper technique for both hands.

That's a fun game. Try to guess whose signature model is pic related
/gg/ I'm in a bit of a dilemma right now...
So I'm looking at buying a strat like guitar because currently I only have an LP around.
I don't wanna splurge and buy a middle-high range priced one (above 400) though.
So... at first I was kinda excited and thought about buying something metal oriented but I also like classic designs obviously:
>LTD-M1000
You know, superstrat, FR, 81-85 emg combo, neckthrough, etc.
found one for 300, black.
>Ibanez S470
Kinda the same deal just with Ibanez pups, their own FR (the s line one, which is ball bearing), and it goes for like 250, so cheapest option but since I'd be changing the pups, it'd come out the same in the end.
>G&L tribute guitars
Basically there's a bunch of G&L from the tribute line listed locally at around 300-400, obviously the more traditional of the bunch, basically strats/teles with G&L "improvements" (however you see them).
I'm not sure what to do, I'm leaning towards the G&Ls... anyone have experience with them?
What do you think of the tremol-no? Is it worth the 50 bucks?
I have an Ibanez RG with tremolo bridge and I really want to be able to change tunings easily.

Nice. My favorite /gg/ meme.
Wanna hear some bullshit?
Gibson has never produced a Historic SG Junior, because the vintage models are so inexpensive (3-5k, generally) that the people who would drop the money for a Historic model could just buy a vintage one.
And then they threw us poor fags a bone by putting out a sub-$1000 model, except for no good reason they put the controls in the wrong spot.
Bullshit man. I just want a fucking SG Junior the way they're meant to be.
>>65352279
I have an epi version of this bullshit.
It's great, I adore it, but it's a piece of shit.
I think they don't make it because who would drop money for that?
Remember the LP junior special they did a few years ago? it was like this, wraparound, single P90, junior backplate and electronics, etc.
I like them, I really do... but paying gibson money for something that never stays in tune and the intonation is all funky is a bit too much.
It works for epi money, but not more imo.
I'd just mod an Epi SG-400 and call it a day.
>>65351893
>What do you think of the tremol-no? Is it worth the 50 bucks?
They don't tend to be as stable as just using a piece of wood.
>>65352595
>I think they don't make it because who would drop money for that?
Are you kidding? Juniors are very popular models.
The reason they aren't made is because the price they'd sell them for is in the same ballpark as a real vintage model. It's not like a Les Paul where the vintage models are tens of thousands of dollars and the reissue is "only" six grand. And I suspect the reason they purposely gimped the Gibson USA version, which sold for around $600-700, is because they didn't want to establish a price precedent that would bite them in the ass if it became economically viable to produce a Historic model.
>>65351954
>>65352672
This.
If you want a solution where you can switch between float and dive you can get something simple like this. Much cheaper than a Tremol-no and much more effective.

You're either retarded or baiting.
There is no SG headstock. They all have Les Paul headstocks because they're all Les Pauls.
Pic related: 1961 Gibson Les Paul Standard
>>65352971
Ok, I'll jump into the shitposting train...
SGs and LPs and many Gibson in general don't share the same fucking headstock design? Not counting Vs, Explorers, 'Birds, and that gay ass looking Gibson without wings headstock.
>>65353014
Not him but early days SGs were actually called Les Paul because it was intended as a replacement of the original design. Which is probably why the 1961 SG you posted actually has a big Les Paul written on it instead of the classic design.
>>65353084
That's exactly what they were. They were branded as Les Pauls and sold as Les Pauls, and they carried over all four Les Paul SKUs.
It was during 1962 that they actually started transitioning into the SG name.
I wonder how many people even know that the traditional Les Paul was discontinued in 1960 and wasn't produced again until 1968. For seven years the SG was Gibson's flagship model, which just sounds inconceivable today.
>>65353014
Is that an early version of the vibrola tailpiece?
>>65353179
I don't know if the maestro was specifically an evolution of the sideways vibrola or if it was just a parallel design, but the sideways model (pictured) did come earlier.

Do you niggers use some kind of program for learning?
I tried learning to play more than 10 years ago but didn't take lessons so there was nothing I could do. It was impossible to practice because I had no idea what to do and couldn't play anything. I knew the basics with what you did with the guitar but nothing about really playing some music.

>>65354777
I just used youtube. I'm good enough most people don't believe me when I say that, if that means anything. As long as you critique yourself constantly and always try to improve your technique you'll be fine. Believe it or not my learning ability in this regard really improved when I started getting into counterstrike. It's all about self critique. When you mess up, think about why you messed up and try to correct that. Experiment with posture, technique, etc. all the time.
>>65354838
So why are you here?
>>65354853

Probably because he's been shilling his shit and himself for free too much on the captain's channel. Captain seems like a cool guy, and can actually play something other than shitty nonsensical rundowns over the neck... but this is what in my opinion has made him tired of Rob, because Rob can never go a full interview without interrupting and doing "his thing", notice how many cuts the usual review has?

Hi anons. I wanna start learning guitar and I think i'm gonna buy a second hand Ibanez for around 300€. What series or models do u guys recommend? Do u know some versatile guitars around this price?
>>65355404
If you want an ibanez, don't get a GIO.
Hi guys, I wanna start learning how to play guitar and I'm gonna buy a ibanez guitar for around 300€ (second hand). Which models do you recomend? Versatile guitars if its possible. Thanks in advance guys!!
>>65355434
I though a S series. Like s521 or if it's possible S770fm? Is that ok?
>>65355404
One guy will tell you not to get a gio, he does every time for some reason, even if we're not talking about gios and just gios
>>65355404
If you want a versatile guitar get one with more than one type of pickup.
>>65355464
Yeah their standard series is fine. The S770fm has a single coil which will give you more versatility, but depending in which condition the floyd rose is, it might be a pain in the ass.
>>65355497
because they're shit. they're super shit and no one should buy them. I'm totally unbiased and have absolutely no grudge against them.

They have consistently given Ibanez a bad rep amongst starters and plebs. Fuck them.

It's cool if you have a grail that is actually decent but most or nearly all of them will be shit and will eventually frustrate someone if they git gud
>>65355632
>Ibanez
>Not versatile
H-S-H with split coil is hardly not versatile. They aren't even high output pickups before you start spouting muh metal guitar.
>>65355632
everyone knows having written fender on the headstock makes it more versatile right
And surely G&L and Musicman are complete garbage. Because they don't have "FENDER" on it.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! It's happening! I got the mail! It's at the distributor and I just paid for it, it exists and it should be here next week!
>>65355632
> HSH
> not versatile
You can argue against them all you want because of pointy shit or metal garbage but don't go full retard. Some even have a 5 way switch.
A HSS strat would be another really versatile config
What do my tone switches actually do? All i can tell is one of them makes it sound a little blurred and maybe the other one is broken?
Or does it only make a difference when i dont have a clean sound?
>>65345656
What is it with Gibson owners and getting cucked. First it was SGcuck , now its LesPaulcuck
So, I've got a 7.3k neck pickup, and I want to keep it fairly close to the strings. What's the lowest resistance I can go with for my bridge pickup and still have balanced output? Ballpark. I've been agonizing over this too long.
>>65354949
The store were they do the videos is actually my nearest store, I've seen cap a few times, seams like a nice guy
A S521 MOL with Dimarzio air norton and tone zone for 280€ it's a good offer?
>>65354976
Eh, Mick and Pete get decent views. Much better players than Rob Chipmunk as well.
>>65355736
>H-S-S
Ibanez does that with a 5-way too.
>>65355759
Resistance isn't an absolute measure of output. 10-12k would probably work though.
>>65355404
Does it have to be an Ibanez?
Many RG and S series sell for around 300 used and new. They are all incredibly versatile.
Some are simple as 3 way switch double Humbucker which is the simplest, up to H S H with 5 way and coil splits.
Ibanez are some of the best value for money, they are also light and comfy.
Negatives: some people don't like their superflat and thin necks.
Jackson has the Dinky model in the 300 range used and new. The pick up configuration is just H H and 3 way only afaik. With or without trem too.
ESP LTD has the M and MH series, same deal as jackson. I find the ESP guitars to be heavier than the competition.
Schecter has also superstrats, same deal as the jackson configuration, but the bodies are contoured and beveled.
Then obviously Fender in their Squier form, Classic Vibe and Vintage Modified, retail new and used for around that price, classic fender configuration obviously, as versatile as any Strat.
G&L and Sterling by Music Man, are basically the new versions of the Strat design by Leo himself.
G&L are very Strat like, Music Man are stuck in the 80s weirdness but besides looks they are great guitars.
Check their import versions (aka thailand or korea or whatever) which hover around that price.
It's probably the most saturated market of guitars desu, it's hard to recommend a single one.
>>65355756
Some sort of correlation between bad decision making and owning a gibson.
>>65355795
Where? So I can steal it from you before you get it.
>>65355795
A 400€ guitar with 200€ of pickups wouldn't be a good offer you think ?
>>65355816
It doesn't have to be an Ibanez. I just say Ibanez cause i like them aesthetics. As long they are superstrats is ok. I will look for all the series and models u say! Ty anon!!
>>65355580
>they're super shit and no one should buy them.
This, you'd be far better off with a Schecter, Squier CV or VM, than a Gio, or a Bullet for that matter.
>>65355809
Yeah, I guess I could try to measure the output a bit better. Considering it's paired with a 6.5k bridge now, and doesn't overpower it by much, It might be lower output. Anyway, 10-12k seems like a lot. I think I'd have trouble finding a tele bridge with that much beef. I'm kinda hoping I can get away with as low as 8k... I guess I need to do some better measurements if I were to risk such a thing.
>>65355866
>As long they are superstrats is ok
