I need to know what type of pickups Joe Walsh has in his green strat on the Crossroads festival CD. The intro part in Funk #49 just blew me away, I can't get that tone out of my head and I have to find out what those pickups are! A few people have said they are probably Lace Sensors, but I...

I like to anchor my hand on the bridge, and the low e string has a real sharp screw that is ready to shred my hand to pieces. Can these screws be ground, covered, replaced, or what? What do you guys do? Thanks.

Never thought I'd say it, but I like my tele more than my strat now, like it's playability more and has a nastier attitude. If you had to pick between your best of either, what would it be?

Rondo is really pushing the envelope on the prices of guitars. They have a real nice Agile LP sunburst clone for $129.99 & an Agile quilt maple double cut set neck guitar with 2 p90's for $159.99. I mean that is just sick. Here is the link. http://www.rondomusic.net/electricguitar-ss2.html

I just pulled the trigger on a small bodied semi hollow, it's an Ibanez Artcore AXD82p, which has a small type body for a semi-hollow, its shaped like an LP but maybe a bit smaller. It's a really great guitar, great sounding and great looking. The only thing I would consider changing on it at...

Below is the the difference as described by Fender taken right from their website. I just cant figure out where the $600 difference in price is. Anybody want to take a crack at it? What's the difference between a Mexican and a US Stratocaster®? The Fender® Stratocaster® guitar is quite...

This strat clone is 20 years old, but in very good condition. Has a very nice metallic blue finish with a black pickguard. The guitar itself has a lot of heft for a strat style guitar, its at least as heavy as my MIM fat strat. The tuners are excellent, this thing stays in tune for months. It's...

Been watching the Crossroads DVD quite a bit lately and initially I was not a big fan of Steve Vai's stuff (that was really my introduction to his stuff), but I've been watching it more and I must admit I've grown to enjoy it. I'ts fun to listen to, and his stage "shtick" with his bandmates is...

The coolest guitar I have ever seen is the Firebird, although I have never played one . What guitars would you guys love to have just because of how it looks but you just cant stand the tone or how it plays/feels?

I've been playing my LP more lately and am getting more comfortable with it, buy I don't think I'm ever going to really get into the neck humbucker just by itself. Compared to the bridge, its' just so murky & thick sounding. For the type of music I like, it's just kind of pointless. Maybe a...

Will be considering a S/S/S strat down the road and was wondering how the "Tribute" G&L's compare to the MIM's in sound & overall quality. Thanks.

I think the knee jerk reaction would be to say guitar. But, lets say we take EVH and give him a $99 squire and plug it into any amp & effects of his choice. Then, we let him choose any guitar in the world but we plug it into a totally cheesy $39 10 watt amp. What would sound better? I know...

I always feel comfortable whenever I play my strat, my '51 or even my Epi LP special II (flattop). They're just light & feel comfortable. But when I pick up my fullblown LP archtop, it feels like I'm wrestling with a bear, I just cant get comfortable with it, its just so damn heavy and blocky...

The bandleader from Jay Leno has an absolutely stunning and unique looking guitar. I have no clue what it is, all I know is he did not get it off the wall at a GC. It's a natural dark brown looking guitar and it just looks awesome.

I've heard tons of people on this site sing the praises of Agile guitars, so I finally took a look at them on the Rondo site and read a bunch of reviews on Harmony also. At some point I would probably be interested in a double cut with p-90's, if anybody has experience with one of those I'd be...
