    Robert I whatched the vid and I was waiting for you to kick in the Marshall.
    I think it would really come alive through it. Nothing like the rich creamy tone from a Marshall and a humbucker.

    I'm envious Robert! That guitar sounds great!

    One of the biggest gear mistakes I ever made was to sell my old Hagstrom Swede. It was a 1974 model made in Sweden that I bought new in '74. It was a black one with an ebony fretboard as they were made then.

    I never cared much for the filter switch on mine. I installed a pair of original mid 70's Dimarzio Super Distortion humbuckers in it and wired the neck pickup (which was a Dual Sound) to an "on-on" switch I installed in place of the stock filter switch to use as a coil cut. Man, that combination rocked! Pure 70's rock tone...

    I really didn't need to see this video demo. Must...control...GAS...pains...
    Ah, nothing relieves the discomfort of GAS pains like the sound of the UPS truck rumbling down your street. It's like the musician's Beano.
