    So I recently purchased a Steinberger GR4 from the classical Newburgh era, with graphite neck, composite fretboard, maple body, r-trem and seymour Duncan pickups. It is a full size Custom in the bridge and 2 hot rails neck and middle. The custom sounds great in this Guitar but the hot rails are...

    Wanna hear me play electric sitar and Indian guitar?

I play a Yamaha SA2200 also tuned in E-B and use a raga-scale: E G Giss A B D Diss E (that´s why I call it "Indian" guitar, even if it´s from Japan and has American Wolfetone Marshallheads pickups)...

    Here´s a clip from GuitCussion´s new CD Exit Wonderland. It´s a free improvisation in the studio. Brakophonic plays some frog-like jazz licks and I improvise over it with my Godin Artisan ST-1 - it has a Kahler Floyd and Dimarzio Area pickups (see avatar). In my ears it reminds of the Gateway...

    The Gibson Howard Roberts was once presented as a "fusion between an ES175 and a Les Paul". But the stock bridge pickup, a 490T, did not sound so good in this semi-hollow guitar. I changed it to a Dimarzio Air Norton, but was quite happy with the stock 490R in the neck for many years, even if it...
