Okay, I'm fair to noob at guitar, so I'd like to ask a few questions about Les Pauls. Sweetwater is running a 36 month SAC deal and if I can swing it by the missus, I might set aside $25-40 a month on an investment in my playing. I've got a super strat from Hamer and a Mockingbird (with the Floyd Rose). I'd like a Paul to round things out a bit.
First up, can someone tell me in simple terms what coil taps do?
For mostly rock guitar playing, should I stick with humbuckers? Are the Alnico pickups the right answer, or should I look to some others?
When they talk about different neck tapers, do they mean the curve of the back of the neck?
Sorry if some of these are rube questions, but I'm interested in the Alpine White w/Gold Hardware Studio with the coil taps. If coil taps are not going to give me tone flexibility (or some other gain), I'll go with a sunburst model without the taps and save the $15 a month...
Thanks for the help!
I really need to just schedule one of my days off to go to Sam Ash or Guitar Center (they're both an hour and a half away), but I really don't like to go play their guitars knowing I can't afford to buy and will order elsewhere...but then, maybe they'll make me a similar deal if I explain my situation.
