    Beck, Clapton, Page

    Page.......I repeat...Page....... Athough it was a million years ago when I saw Zep live, I was moved.......still am...... Page was indeed sometimes sloppy, as was Hendrix...... They both are still my favorite guitar players...... Beck equals " ego tech robot" (my opinion only.....)...

    c7sus is right....the toothpick thingy works.....at least try it, it would beat hell out of trying to dig JBweld out if you screw it up...not to mention be careful with anything that might totally melt the finish on your guitar.......gibs

    Gibson SG advice...

    I have a worn special, and I had to tighten the nuts right under where the strings are wound....they were loose as crap.......and when I changed those useless "brite wires"( or whatever those horrible strings are) to 10's, mine now sounds like a glossy expensive model........SG's are great...

    Are mexican strats total crap.....

    I bought a MIM Jimmy V two months ago and it does everything I want it to.... The Tex Mex pups are the biggest difference between it and my '84,'85,'87, pr '88 MIA (Fender serial numbers blow big time, and I haven't found the need to take the neck off to pinpoint the date yet)....The pups in...

    Ok, I changed my mind...

    So what you want is something that looks like the real thing, although it isn't, plus you want an imaginary neck thru design that didn't happen with the real thing, which would also make it not the real thing...... And, whatever it is you want, you don't want it to be a Gibson product, even...
