Lol. I was just joking around with "sissy" , not a serious statement. Thats what a lot of die hard les paul players were saying when the weight relieved ones first came out. (Old dogs-new tricks) I have a weight relieved les paul and a solid one too. I like them both. Just something about the...

There's an old saying "if it's not broken, don't try to fix it" Leo fender got the stratocaster right and had tweaked it into perfection by 1957. THATS the guitar fender should be making. Gibson tweaked the les paul into perfection by 1959. THATS the guitar Gibson should be making. Ditto on the...

https://reverb.com/item/84024752-greco-ace-frehley-les-paul-1979-sunburst?utm_campaign=US-Shop_unpaid&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google Here is a greco Ace Frehley les paul custom from 1979. It is a thing of beauty man! It took the Japanese from around 1973 to about 1977 to really nail those les...

In the Japanese guitar lawsuit it reverted to just the open book headstock design. I think it was against Ibenez. So, Ibenez, Yamaha, Greco, Tokai, and other Japan guitar makers, just slightly changed the headstock and kept making the really good les paul copies. Not a peep out of Gibson after...

Gibson have been the law suit filingest mofos in the guitar business. I love les Paul's and V's but their guitars are way over priced. Back in the late 70's and early 80's Japanese were producing very close high quality les paul replicas and selling them for a fraction of the price. Actually at...

One reason it sounded too trebley may have been you setting the amp volume low on 2. The supers, and pro's, (or marshalls for that matter) sound better when you turn the volume on up to 5 or so, where you have way more head room than you need, and pull the volume way down on your guitar. The amp...

I love among amps too

I think the old fender pros, supers, vibrolux, and deluxe are hard to beat if you are gigging and you need one ampbto cover all bases....clean, slightly overdrive blues, and rock and roll. My favorite rock setup is a les paul with paf pickups going through a Marshall tube amp, but it's pretty...

Yeah, I had a silver face super reverb too. Awesome amp but heavy. The pro isn't much lighter. They are both 40 watts. Pro is 2/12's and the super is 4/10's. The super had a mid tone control and the pro just bass and high. I've never found myself wishing the pro had a mid control...it is voiced...

There is a reason those old strats are selling for way over 10k, when there are so many still out there. Most people don't want to get rid of them, and when they do people with money are willing to cough up the dough. They have vibe all their own that is extreamly hard to replicate in a modern...

For me it's tone, looks, and playability. To some looks aren't important, but for me, if the guitar is goofy looking i dont care how good it plays and sounds, it's not going to speak to me and have me playing it for hours unable to put it down Personally, I like mid 60's strats. I have played...

The beatles used throwaway lyrics most of the time. They got the chord progression, the melody, and the hook of the song together and mainly just hummed the melody until they would come up with a line the really liked. After that the used throwaway lyrics (words that fit the cadence of how they...

I would say drop the big money on a vintage Fender strat or a vintage Gibson les paul. Why? Because that's the guitars I love and they're the ones that inspire me. I still gig with my 1966 stratocaster. Also, top of the line guitars hold there value better than cheapos

Great tune. The only thing I have is the bass guitar is too hot and needs some eq to tame the mid frequencies down a bit. Maybe in the 250 to 500 z range.

Excellent! I love that groove.

Not trying to be a smartass, but why did you buy it if you don't like the tone coming from it?

Your Royer 335 copy is EXACTLY like the one I had...black plastic....pickups...finish. Same guitar. The one I had was a great guitar. I moved it on down the line though. A friend of mine had to have it.

Dont sell yourself short man. The guitar playing I've heard on your recordings sounds great.

Just want to thank everyone for the kind words!

We're both still alive and well! I knew I was still alive and well and It's great to see you're still alive and well...as well! ? I'll be in touch
