    Budget Les Pauls

    I'll bring my chambered LP to Jamfest next summer and you can beat on it. :D I don't find the upper fret access any easier on it than on my other LPs, though. Could be that the lighter body weight caused you to have a slightly differernt hanging angle, or something. :confused:

    Anyone looking for an Organ?

    I mean, really - who builds huge pipe organs on speculation? :eek: I had no idea. I wonder if the sale price includes installation? :D

    Found my PC's limit.

    Seriously, that you could get that much out of a dirt-cheap laptop...impressive. Especially when you consider what that processing power and memory would have cost you 15 years ago. :eek:

    I know what you mean, Lou. It's hard to put into words.

    can't get a good sound P90

    A little brighter, more "focused" sounding, a little snappier. In the neck position they are very warm and smooth.

    Is it a good electric guitar for beginer?

    No. It's way too large for a 5-year-old to play. There are tons of starter packs out there with junior-sized guitars. Plus that's way too much money to spend on what may end up collecting cobwebs in the corner.

    Question about my strat..

    Yeah, mine behaves just like a regular nut when I do deep bends. Strings bind behind the nut, causing them to go sharp until I give 'em a good tug.

    Tube Amp Comparison: Unbiased Ears Tell A Very Interesting Story

    That's funny. :D I'm always amazed that my beagle will lay down in the room, head not 10 feet from the speaker cab, when my rig is turned up to medium loud. Probably waiting to be fed. ;)

    Question about my strat..

    Not sure about this - I've never had my pickguard off. Wouldn't surprise me, though, if it were - from a production POV it would make more sense to have just one body rout.

    Question about my strat..

    The Tremsetter works OK, but it's not a cure-all. If it's set up correctly, it will pull the strings/vibrato assembly to what feels like a detent, right in the center of the vibrato's throw. So it's supposed to bring your strings back to the same spot every time. I find that it works fine for...

    Question about my strat..

    ZoSo, I have exactly the same guitar, with a black finish. It's a '91 model, an American made Strat Plus. I bought mine new in '91 and if I recall I paid about $950 for it. Lace Gold sensors, Hipshot Tremsetter, roller nut exactly like yours, locking tuners. Same tone pot with a detent at...

    Ok try this one - strat-ish guitar

    Wow. Really an ear-bleeder. But the girl has a couple of good licks mixed in there - she's got good command of her little finger. But she doesn't have the hand strength (or size, maybe) to play below the 6th fret, and she's playing up past the 12th mainly because her fingers are small and it's...
