This is my first non-Floyd Rose guitar, and I was a little hesitant about playing it live, but it made it through an hour set and stayed in tune, so I was pleasantly surprised.
I like those too, but I wish they would've kept that old Kramer Pacer looking headstock instead of that one. They quit using those a couple years ago though. Nice looking axe! Is it pretty Les Paulish sounding?
I don't know how Les Paulish sounding it is, as I haven't played a Les Paul in about 10 years, but I do know it's a much darker tone through my amp than all of my alder-bodied guitars. About the only change I am going to make is to replace the JB with a Distortion. I normally use a Jazz in the neck, but the 59 is growing on me. The JB sounds good, but I prefer the sound of the DD in the bridge.
I had been looking at these online for quite awhile, because I like the body style, but I don't like single coils and I actually use all 24 frets. I actually headed down to my local music store to buy an LTD DV8 and saw this, played it, and loved it. BTW, the DV8 was a great guitar, but not worth $200 more than this.
Always liked Pete Townshend's Schecter Tele (hence the PT) - and the riff to Emminence Front [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Wasn't his a bolt-on though?
I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood
The most human thing we can do is comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.
Very cool tele, I love the binding and the pickup layout! Speaking of Kramer, here's the Kramer tele I have in my stable:
I don't play this one much, but it's a versatile guitar. Ash body, Seymour Duncan Nashville pickups, and a Shadow Piezo bridge.
