Hi, this is my first post. I am not professional and I only have a Cube 20 amp, played at a pretty low volume to be considerate to the rest of the family (unless they are all out)
Presently I have a USA G&L S-500 which I am very happy with, but now I would like something completely different and was thinking of hollowbody or a semi-hollowbody. I assume that they would give quite a difference in sound.
I try my best to play a variety of music from old 60s stuff to blues (can't do the jazz thing...much beyond my ability level)
I usually play clean with a bit of reverb, as the dirty channels on my cube 20 don't really impress me much
Would a hollow body or a semi-hollow give me a big difference in sound. The S-500 that I have presently has the original ceramic single-coils, which according to reviews are very versatile. Will humbuckers make a big difference?
I understand that there are so many variables, but I am looking for something that is much different from the sounds I can get now. basically something more mellow or woody sounding.
What basic guitar design should I be searching for?
