Thanks Deztone. I dont own many guitars myself, just the Gibson and a Fender Tele dark burst

a Gibson 59 Reissue would be sweet, or a 58 or 57 for that matter.. its times like this i wish i lived in the US, the prices are ridiculous in Australia (12 grand for a 59!)

Nope!

The one on the left is my pride and joy - PRS custom 22, 10 top, artist pack, no trem, wide fat neck, and the dragon 2 pickups.

Best guitar I've EVER played!

'88 Strat Plus, 2000 American Jazz, 2003 J-45, '82 Les Paul Custom and a '95 American Precision. None of them are in pristine condition. I would never sell any of them though.

It's a wonderful guitar, but my favorites are the LP Pro Deluxe and the Jaydee.

cheers boys, they do the job, and you could beat someone to death with the Prestige!! Actually Westone have brought out a new range fairly recently. Not sure what they're like. Check out therathole.com for loads of info on old Japanese guitars. There's a world of gimping out there....

I do Love the Lonestar Strat....

I played the prototype a little while before they were released... Back when Mike Lewis was head of R&D-product development at Fender....

they were Uhmmming and Ahhhing over exactly which SD model to use for the Bridge... we had a couple to choose from, trying them back to back....

If I recall correctly the final choice came down to a difference between Alnico III and Alnico V magnets on an SD Pearly Gates humbucker ... the texas specials were a given from the word go, but by god did they agonise over exactly what humbucker to use....

ahhh good times those.... played all sorts of lovely things ....

Yep, the Lone Star is a blast!

I've done all the 'super-strat' things (Charvels and likes), but after getting the PRS it just blew them out of the waters regarding fat, driven, yet clear and precise sounds, so I dumped them all...

Then after a few years I found myself lusting after those clean and half-driven fender sounds and went through a period of other 'super-strats' (Blades and stuff) but never really found that elusive FENDER sound I had imaged. Then one day I got to my dealer and in a corner this black beauty sat waiting for me. Got to borrow it for the evening and went to our rehearsal room, spent 30 minutes with my Blade to give it a fair chance to dial in THE sound, after that I plugged in the Fender and just hit a chord, and the thought that came up was 'Damn, this will cost...'.

This is the most all-round axe I've tried, it does them all, the humbucker can give any metal-axe a match, the Texas Special deliver all the crunch You'll need and the are wonderful at clean settings too...

This has become my main axe when out giging leaving the PRS home most of the time...

It's probably a little difficult to tell, but my Strat is also of the Lonestar variety, though in slightly modified form, as it sports a Wilkinson trem and Planet Waves locking tuners (Max, I still haven't fitted that roller nut - wha'dya mean "coward"!). Good guitar, and the one I play the most.

It's not quite there, needs a bit more overdrive.

On the show it sounds like they may have routed it through a Tube Screamer (original one of course)!

Hi, I'm new here, I found this site while looking for recording forums and have been lurking for a while. I'm from the States, and have found a lot of good information here. I've been playing in country/classic rock bands for years, currently working in two bands.
A lot of nice guitars displayed in this thread, below is a link to my guitar page.

Hi Scott, and welcome to the Forum....
Just one more piece of info for you..... sorry, it might seem like I'm being Picky.... but the banner crossing the Telecaster's page is incorrect./... it's NOT a rosewood fretboard., it's maple.

I guess you know this, but just haven't noticed the mistake on your web site.


Best regards
Max

Well spotted Max. I don't think the strat is tobacco sunburst either?

He certainly has the full set though!

newbie to SOS here
and couldn't resist the temptation

a few years ago if someone told me I would have a collection of guitars I would have told them they were crazy
little did I know what happens when after you put your feet in the water
it's not the most impressive collection,but still more than I thought I'd ever have hanging around
