I play mostly Blues.

Never had one before and Im looking for one that is great sounding (as much as possible) and dependable. Thirty to sixty watt. :icon_scratch:

Here is just a small sample. Ive had this problem too.  http://www.fender.com/community/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4390

http://www.plugin-band.com/news/Shawn.jpg    http://www.youropinionsarewrong.com/images/random/bucket-unmasked.jpg  THIS IS BRIAN CARROLL "BUCKETHEAD". There are no if's ands or buts about it. Its fact. There is NO big mystery about who he is or what he looks like.   

OK, maybe I didnt look at enough videos. I found some pretty good ones in the last few hours. This guy is insane ! I wish I had one quarter of his skill. :party07:

Never heard of this guy (Brian Carroll) till today. I looked up a bunch of videos of this guy and he has amazing, and I mean "AMAZING" technical skills and blinding speed. Unfortunately, like many others like him, his music just doesnt sound like music. It just sounds like a bunch of...

Damn, that sucks ! I just picked up a new never played Highway 1 Tele body dirt cheap but I hear the paint on the new Hiway 1's scratch, chip and flake off fo nothing.

Is there a problem with spraying polyurethane over Nitro Lacquer ?

I guess Im not very good at telling people what a pickup sounds like but when I want a tight clean sound I feel the need to pickup a Tele  :guitaristgif: The FRED is cheap, the best thing is to try it. Joe Satriani played it in his Surfing with the Alien albam (I think) try youtube. Sorry Im not...

I have mine in a chambered mahogany hardtail strat with a quilted maple top, maple neck with pau ferro fingerboard. I dont really know how to describe this one......... It's very different from most humbuckers. I love the sound for rock,hard rock and clean but its not good at everything. Its not...

I have been an electrician for 28 years so I was wondering if anyone has the stats on this cable? Anyone ever put a meter on this stuff ? I'll bet a million buck this stuff is made by a major wire manufacturer under another name and its a lot cheaper that way. I have found this to be true many...

I think I may the only one here that has a DiMarzio FRED in the bridge of my Warmoth. Am I the only one thats ever given it a try. :headbang1: 

I have a Strat with SRV's and I think im one of the few people that like them. They have a load and raspy voice. I also like the Fralin pickups in my Tele and they have a very clear bell like tone. For an all around good sound I would lean toward the Fralin's. Never had the others.

How many of you put a cover on the back of your Warmoth body ?  :sign13: I think about it from time to time but I guess I dont know why I should. I hate to put more holes in it. :sad:

I have an 81' G&L F-100 and a 97' Bonnie Raitt signature Strat and they both play and sound pretty good but they stay in the closet most of the time. My two Warmath Strats are my favorites for now. Till I finish my Warmoth Tele anyway. We'll see.
