I just discovered Darco 10's, made by the Martin Co. I'm really loving them -- tight and bright!

Boss RV-3
New bridge pickup for tele from a CS HR52 tele

Going to swap out the stock pickup from my Affinity tele and see if I can get closer to Phil Guy's tone (my dream tele tone).

Rooting for Canada, esp after last year.

I'm the OP for this thread. Thanks for all the replies.

My main issue now is at home. It's an apartment in a 100-year-old house, and the wiring is brutal. Plus we have dimmer switches, air...

$5 shipping to CONUS per item. If you buy more than one, I'll discount the shipping to reflect that. All in very good condition.

Danelectro FAB Distortion -- $10.00. Nice pedal on the cheap. Can...

It's not on your list, but I would recommend the Pro Jr. It's my grab and go amp for jams. It's only 15 watts, but it is freaking loud. I always get told to turn down. It's not heavy, either.

I...

I was in there on Monday but wasn't looking for a mic. Got several other things. Sad to see that store close. I'll check with him.

Thanks for the tip.

I'm looking for a used one of these mics. I can offer trades of pedals. The following are available:

Rocktron Short Timer Delay
Digitech Bad Monkey w/Humphrey mod (the "Badder Monkey")
Boss DS-1...

Thanks for sharing. What a fantastic guitarist. Underrated and sadly mostly unknown nowadays.

Very awesome vid! But isn't it a bit late for Java to fight this battle and pretend they're the hip young rebels?

Shh. Don't tell everybody, but the Affinity teles are a fantastic bargain. And they sound good. Not just good for the price, but good. I like it so much I've barely touched my strats since I got it....

I'd love to hear what settings you're using for delay, etc. I bought the RP50 with the same idea in mind - use it for reverb, delay, chorus, other stuff. I've never been able to get sounds I liked...

+1 on the Peavey Envoy. Sounds amazingly good live.

I've heard the SCXD, and it's a very versatile amp. Can't go wrong with either.

You said cheap, so I would recommend the Danelectro PB&J Delay. It's one of their "mini" series (you know, the little ones all named after deli food).

It has a stomp switch to go back and forth...

I'm not an expert on the prices, but if you look up those Japanese Squiers on ebay, they go for pretty high. You're right, they are generally considered amazing instruments.

You might try asking...

Depends on your needs, but I find the PJ to be plenty loud for a small venue. I'm always being asked to turn down at jams, and that's about 1/3 of the way up. I put a Ragin Cajun and JJ's in mine,...

OK, folks. I'm buying another Squier tele and have to move some stuff out to pay for it. These are all in very good condition, kept in smoke-free home and hardly ever gigged.

Paypal only, prices...

Like someone said there in the comments: perfection. Two thoughts --

1. It gives you an appreciation of how astoundingly good these 4 guys were.

2. This is one example where a tribute band is...

Took my Jimmie Vaughan strat to practice last night. After 3 months of just playing the Tele, I thought the Jimmie might be feeling neglected.

No pedals, no picks -- sounded great, and I really...

Has anybody used this to darken a maple neck/fretboard? I've got a BSB Affinity Squier. I love the guitar, but that neck is pretty pale, as someone said, like my grandma's legs in the winter.

I just found out yesterday that the lyrics to Groovin' by the Rascals do not say:

"That would be ecstasy, you and me and Leslie"

but rather:

"That would be ecstasy you and me endlessly"

Funny you should mention that solo, since that is one of the main recordings that made me want a strat. I love that glassy tone.

However, I'm also a big fan of Clapton's Cream era tone. But it...

I was a complete Strat guy till about 3 months ago when I got my first telecaster, an Affinity BSB. Since then, I have barely touched my strats.

Not saying I'll never go back, but for now, that...

I listened to the whole thing on NPR and I actually liked it. Which surprised me.

Nice sounds. How do they sound in the mix? I only ask because of my frustration with finding some great tone at home and having it disappear live.

What do you do to adjust for live playing?
