    59 vs Wolfgang profile

    That’s my finding too - I defaulted to Wizards because my first guitars were Ibanez and my heroes at the time all played them. I went the opposite route at some point and got a big baseball bat blackguard Tele neck and it wasn’t perfect but it wasn’t the speed bump I thought it would be...

    59 vs Wolfgang profile

    All depends on your particular mitts, but the 59 is pretty gosh darn great. ‘59 w/ 42mm is what I just ordered in fact. Fender nut, perfect medium-chunky Gibson back. Good stuff. Haven’t played the Wolfy, but Ive played the SRV which is similar. Asymmetrical profiles do seem to fit my hand more...

    Interesting question, need Canadian help

    2k is horrific in the sense of - don’t friggin inhale it. It applies easy and cures hard and fast.

    Paul Davids and Dweezil Zappa talk Pentatonic

    Wow you can tell from the first lick Dweezil is wayyyyy outside the common pentatonic tropes. Very cool video. I always thought the little pentatonic section in Peaches En Regalia sounded very fresh

    I had the same thought but honestly it can’t be that big of a deal - you may not get “1 turn = 1 semitone” but I can’t imagine you’ll notice if that’s off +/- 10% compared to how much it already varies with a single ratio set

    Appreciate the feedback - I will pass on the offer to send them my way. Need 6-inline anyway.

    Also - anyone ever used Graphtech Ratio tuners? I like the concept a lot and it fits the emerging theme of the build which is “Modern Take on Classic Tele”… the FCH bridge, the slightly flatter neck radius and half scallops, microcoils etc

    I’ve only been messing with scalloped necks since last year and I really like it, you have my full endorsement ;) It’s certainly handsome. Where would a fella procure such a thing?

    New album: Bad Blood

    I’m two tracks in and liking what I’m hearing so far! This is unadulterated hard rock. Angus would be proud.

    What’s interesting is at some angles it really reflects more gold… it is really pretty.

    I like it too but it is definitely a leather brown / bronze color. I was expecting more Gibson Goldtop. I might order a different pickguard

    Deep gold pickguard landed. It’s darker than I anticipated, but I like it.
