NGD - Charvel So Cal

Re: NGD - Charvel So Cal

I replaced the Distortion with a JB and installed a Tremol-no. This guitar is just about perfect now.

I could easily enjoy either of those in that guitar.

I agree with Mincer. The JB tends to be a one-trick pony. Sometimes it sounds great, sometimes not so. But the hybrid is very versatile and has a very pleasing tone, like a '59 that's gone through puberty and has some body to its voice, or like a '59's big brother.

Great clarity, very articulate, good highs but not piercing, more mids than the '59, a bit more power when needed, splits extremely well.

Give me a hybrid over a JB any day! (Although I do have one guitar with a JB in it that sounds super...I'm not necessarily a JB hater).

Very well stated! Its been awhile since Ive played my JB loaded guits, nor do I have any guitars with 59s in the bridge (lots of neck 59s!) so I didnt want to try and make a comparison.

This is great to hear!! Glad its tripping your trigger! In the right guitar, the JB is incredible. I have a stock one in my 80s Kramer and wouldnt dream of swapping it. Im sure that is why the JB has been around for ever, a staple in many guitars/guitarists arsenals and heard on tons of recordings

I also ordered a Jazz for the neck. It should be here in a day or so.
