    My Strat (pics)

    This is my main instrument - a 1983 MIJ '62 RI. I've only owned it for about 6 or 7 yrs; killer guitar, very light (6.5 lbs) and extremely resonant. Changes to it include: *Seymour Duncan pickups (hot rails; classic stack plus; lil 59) *Dunlop Flush Mount strap locks *GT Fat Finger *DiMarzio...

    Show off your Telecasters!

    I've recently gone back to just two pickups in my Tele; here it is setting atop my '66 Bassman (in custom Twin-sized 2x12 cab):

    This one looks nice - and yeah, the price is great.

    Oh yeah - Top loading the top three strings gives them more flexability as they are effectively shorter in length, they'll stretch and give easier. With the low 3 going thru the body, they're longer and more taut giving them the maximum 'snap' and the high 3 being shorter makes them warmer...

    Show off your Telecasters!

    I kept the 3-way switch, Krashpad - I like the middle setting on a regular Tele and was only really wanting the middle pickup to add to/soften the attack of the bridge pickup - I didn't want to add a blend pot, thus the mini-toggle with the resistor - I played with a pot to determine how much...

    Hello all

    Thanks for the welcome(s), everyone. I found The Fret through Robert and his site - I don't know how I found Dolphin Street, just cruising the 'net for gtr stuff, I guess. Yes - OKC is Lips territory (at least from way back).

    RIP GuitarOne

    As a self-avowed guit-mag junkie, I haven't really liked the GuitarOne mag all that much - having said that, I hate to see it pass as I'd been buying them and sharing them with students since the very first issue of it's distant past name of Guitar for the Practicing Musician... hate to see it...

    Callaham Strat bridge plate

    I like the Fralin/Callaham base plates for single coils - it fattens the lows and mids and boosts the output of the p'up a little bit - it's not going to turn a pickup into a monster by any means, but it does a nice job of fattening, etc. If you like a vintage output p'up for Strats, a base...

    Video - My Blue Deluxe Players Strat

    Nice Strat, Robert - great job on the vid playing as well; fantastic tones as usual - like others commented, I too dig the 'Clarity of Strat' that your tones have. Wonderful stuff; congrats on the new gtr.

    Any news what's new for 2007 in the Squier lineup?
