Got CRAZY love for the white Jag with tort pickguard.

It's just that my Mustang is ALREADY in that color scheme. Kinda redundant to have two gee-tars in the same palette, no?

And nope, my Stang isn't equipped with humbuckers. God forbid.

Reason why I want a humbucker loaded shortscale is to ...

Need yer opionions please coz' I'm about to blow a wad of cash within the next few weeks. I need a backup for my 65 RI Mustang and the modified Telecaster just ain't doing it for me anymore.

Which do you fine folks ultimately prefer?

The (Mexican) Classic Player Jag HH in sunburst?

Or the ...

Playing BASS?

Ouch.

Damn straight 'bout your Twin. Personally, I'm a Vox guy (I'm a clean tone bitch).

Ever play that thing through some kind of ProCo Rat?

And if you have...what's it like?

Lucky, lucky, lucky...

Can't seem to find any of those in my area.

Best thing 'round my way would be Eastwoods and I never did have the balls to pull the trigger on a copy of a copy.

Muy teh kurtz.

What kind of amp are you using with that thing, if you don't mind my asking?

Someone pass me a Kleenex.

Or a moist towelette.

Good for you, dude.

Wouldn't expect much from a guitar shop, though. They'll fuck you over and I'm assuming you'll want AT LEAST the price you paid.

I would sell my left testicle for a Mustang in that color scheme though.

(Olympic) White on white/black/white guard with black pickup covers?

That shit's the tits.

What the fuck is WRONG with that bridge?

Looks craptastic.

And in serious need of some dental work.

Nor did I say that the popes sounded like coldplay. I may be young(er) but I'm not stupid enough to think the two groups are ANYTHING like each other.

The point I was TRYING to make was in reference to HALE. They DO sound like the popes when playing "fast" songs...but the "slower" ones...as well as ...

PERSONALLY, I've always been amazed as to how "open-minded" the UK Music scene is.

I mean, here in America, you'd never imagine Jack White hanging out with Britney Spears.

But over THERE, you used to have "fat dancer" Robbie Williams hanging out at Oasis concerts (before the Gallaghers decided to ...

Maybe...







Maybe not...

Hale?

Funny you should say that.

Hale's rep across the Pacific is more "Coldplay-ish."

Which probably explains why I don't like them. Chris Martin's voice makes me want to poop.

Don't think much of the popes either...but them's nuthin' but my measly two cents.

Which, as I said earlier, is what was throwing me off in the first place.

Wonder how that thing sounds with both pickups turned on. Do you folks think the "reverse" order (coz' buckers are usually in the bridge) has any sort of audible effect?

Oh...and if you like that shit...check THIS out:

I have a few connections with THAT particular indie "scene." (see my website)

If yer really interested, sir, PM me your details and I can try to hook you up with the soundz.

Been bugging me for a while now...

Okay...so one guitarist is obviously playing a Kurt-ified Japanese Mustang. From the sonic blue finish, the red guard...even down to that"K" shield that Cobain purloined from "K" records and adopted as his own personal ...

Thanks for the info.

I guess my question was too broad. Will have to be more specific in the future.

But generally (and I DO mean GENERALLY) speaking...which is shriller/twangier? The Duo or the Stang?

I know, I know...define "shrill" and "twang" right? Well...I can't. All I know is that between ...

Point taken. Thank you sir.

And I suppose my follow-up will paint me as some kind of sonic-neanderthal..

...but...

I own a 65 RI 'Stang.

I've tried out that HORRIBLE (what!?! it's an opinion!) GOLD Squier Duo reissue.

And I've never had the honor of futzing around with a genuine vintage ...

Not to sound like an insufferable know-it-all...

...but, my friend, Fender (and all the other big companies out there) is about two things:

1. Selling dreams

and

2. The ever-present profit margins

You say "Fender" to your typical Joe Schmo out there and one image will pop in their heads: Jimi ...

Check out Tina's bass.

And as for Byrne...watch/listen closely around 4:21 into the vid.

'Stang or Duo? Looks an awful lot like my 65 RI.

A post of no consequence. Just thought I'd share.

Noob here (waves)

I don't know what it is but that subtle decal of a cyclone on the 'stock is awfully interesting.

All about the little details, I always say.
