God I haven't seen a Westone Thunder in years - not that I've been looking, or seen any Westone in recent years.

Class guitars them, really like the body shape.


gonna start me on another ebay expedition now...

So many guitars! :shock: Do you have specific ones for gigging or recording? What's your favorite guitar and bass out of the ones you have?

I always thought the yellow one like you got was cool. I saw you video of when you first got it, what is your impressions of it now that you have had it for a while and set it up.

Here's my 90s Indian built Encore P-Bass, with a DiMarzio Split-P in it. I bought it after really fancying starting
to play bass again, Always mean't to go back and fit volume and tone knobs but haven't got round to it yet.
Pretty sad that bucklerash is taking off the dogs head. Same shit with the neck.

When you had controls on there how did that dimarzio pickup sound in it? I've been considering swapping a new pickup into my MIA p bass. I have experience with the Seymour Duncan 1/4 pounder and I like that pickup, but I wanted to see what the dimarzios had to offer too.

My favorite recording guitar, in theory, is the cherry sunburst Squier Standard Strat (Blacktop Strat neck) with Lace Chrome Domes. Lately, though, I've been using the Avril Lavigne signature Tele (pretty much stock) for just about everything. I also like the black Hello Kitty guitar with the Seymour Duncan Custom a lot.

I tend to separate my recording guitars with playing guitars, since I prefer to keep the former group in my bedroom for fear of losing them because I know it sounds kinda lame, but my recording guitars are my sound, you know. When I'm playing at band volume, though, I don't think tone really matters, so I just use whatever plays, handles, and looks the best.

The best guitar for performance is the Daphne Blue Squier Deluxe Strat, no doubt about it. It's also the only guitar that's actually floating right now, though, so I just choose a hardtail as my second guitar for Drop D or whatever, often the pink Hello Kitty, but I think the pink one (Dimarzio Super Distortion) is soon headed to my recording pile and will be replaced with the silver sparkle Jagmaster, on which I put the 22-fret Strat neck from the cherry sunburst guitar. I tend to require 22 frets for my performance guitars, and I do go up there sometimes.

For bass, I use the Badtz Maru Bronco Bass to record. I like to rehearse/perform with the white Mustang Bass.

Doesn't stay in tune. That's the only problem. I love the tone, though. I could upgrade the nut and tuners, and I'm sure it'd take care of the issue, but I'm contemplating just selling it and putting humbucker sized P90s into my Epi Les Paul Std instead, since that's a guitar that plays really well but sounds kinda blah, even with the Jazz/Custom pickups. The Jazz/Custom will then move to the Jagmaster.

I installed that pickup into my roommate's Jaguar Bass.

It sounds very good. It has what you'd consider a modern sound and is quite high output. Sits very nicely in the mix.

It's never had controls and the dimarzio la, i could never be arsed fitting them. Based on the everything full sound it should be reet though!

Are those GFS Jazzmasters as good as they look? I always find myself staring at them on their site, but I keep thinking I should just get a "real" one. I already have a cij jazzmaster, how do those GFS ones compare?

edit: I know I should search, but I was just hoping for a quick answer
