Tradition Tele copy....all ceramic pups, push pull in the neck, and bone nut stock!

The binding on this thing is spot on.
 
Cool Jerry Reed model. Of course I've been Jonesing for one of those too. What do you think of it? How does it play?
 
Its a great axe for pickin and grinnin...its also great for classic rock...the Neck pup is a little boomy but its great for rhythm work...also the neck is probably one of the best I have ever played, its SLICK and fast. My only gripe is that the coil cut doesn't sound too great, but it simulates enough. This played through my Delta Blues is awesome for lightly OD blues. I wan't to put new pups in it and wire it up different...the jack is a little iffy sometimes also. It was 350 dollars.
 
This is my agile al3000 with a gfs retro hot nashville pup in the bridge. Later I replaced 'em with emg 81 and 60. :)
 
Well, I don't know about a stone cold beauty, and I sure would love one of those Agiles or similar one day, but here is my black rock and roller:

Soon to be modded with Tone's old Dimarzio Virtual Hot PAF 'bucker (zebra) in the bridge and a 10k Lil' Killer rail pup from GFS in the neck, with a push/pull pot. I may try out creme strat knobs (Tone's again) to go with the Zebra pup. Might not work as well with the push/pull feature though.
 
Well, she's not near as sweet as what y'all have, but I like her. She's an Oscar Schmidt (by Washburn) OE30.

Did this thread existed before I posted my guitar? I thought I started this thread.

:confused:
 
My John Petrucci rates as a black beauty for me...

Now with GFS fat paf's installed, she sounds like a beauty too..

If I stepped on your toes I am really sorry......I didn't see a black guitar thread - either I'm blind or it went low on the list and I didn't scroll down...either way my apologies.

I'm guessing that Robert combined 2 threads because they are on the same topic.
 
ok that makes sense. :)

Lots of pretty guitars here. I got mine black because I can't decide what color I want. My carvin bolt kit may be black too.
 
Two of these aren't completely black so I hope you don't throw me out of the club. :)

Mid 90's Ibanez RG 450 and 91 Mexican Standard Strat.

E series Korean Strat. The pickups are the weakest link, but otherwise it feels and sounds great. The neck has a V to it.

Yep, I remember that photo or one that was similar to it. Auto drool!!!

I noted a few times I never name my guitars, but when I posted the pic, I noted it as "The Gift". It has a nice ring to it and that's now the guitars name. I've been playing it off and on for a couple of hours tonight and may have a jam session Sunday over at a coworkers house (Rocket, definition of coworker: One who works with another; a fellow worker.)
