Re: The Well XLVII: Butch Finally Does This...
OK man...you FINALLY have your own Well and that's the best title you could come up with?
I say you edit the title to:
The Well XLVII: Hide your chickens, cause Butch is 'bout to start pickin!I get weak in the knees at the sight of a vintage Fender amp! -
Re: The Well XLVII: Butch Finally Does This...
Ok Butch, where do we start...???
You've had a few problems recently with playing certain guitars and retaining your own identity, so my question is what guitar do you think you sound most like you, and what would a Butch Snyder Sig Model be like???
Do what I do. Hold tight and pretend it's a plan!Comment

Oh man, I bet I have made more than a few eyes roll when everyone sees my threads like "Which Tele?" or "What should I do to my Tele now?"Originally posted by stevie_bees View PostOk Butch, where do we start...???

Having played my Morse for over a year as well as others, I had an epiphany a couple of weeks ago. I noticed that, while the Morse felt and played fantastically, I always found myself trying to play like Mr. Morse himself, albeit badly.
When I always play my Tele, I sound and play like me; good or bad. It's all mental but at least now I can actually grasp it.
As far as a Butch Snyder sig Tele, it would be an Am Std model with a mini-humbucker in the neck that is loud and fat but can cut and jangle like a single coil when dig into it. The middle pickup would be a higher-output Strat pickup so I could lower it and have it more out of the way. The bridge pickup would be in the the 10k range and have a nice fat twang. It would have a P/G B-bender too. The switching would be a standard 3-way blade that works like a standard Tele would. I would have a mini-toggle in between the vol and tone pots to turn the middle pickup on/off.
That's about it....-ButchComment

Is it not the glory of the people of America that, whilst they have paid a decent regard to the opinions of former times and other nations, they have not suffered a blind veneration for antiquity, for custom, or for names, to overrule the suggestions of their own good sense, the knowledge of their own situation, and the lessons of their own experience?" - James Madison - Federalist #14Comment

Medium-Jumbo, U-shaped like a Nocaster, Quarter-sawn flame maple, 9.5" radius, Brisge type would be American Standard...Originally posted by tone4days View Post-ButchComment

Also, white top-binding like on the Am Deluxes. All finishes would be pastel, vintage white, daphne blue, sonic blue, surf green, mint green, etc. Pickguards would be white pearl...-ButchComment

That would be one crazy guitar, but I have ALWAYS loved binding on a tele.Originally posted by crusty philtrumOriginally posted by SecurbComment

Well of course...Originally posted by stevie_bees View PostDo we get a discount when they go into production Butch???
Adds the finishing touch. The only time I wouldn't use topbinding is with a white Tele or a blackgaurd Nocaster.Originally posted by trevorus View Post-ButchComment

I've got a replacement body being made for my Tele. It was originally going to be 1-piece ash, and I was planning top binding. My friend has gone and put a thick maple top on it!! It looks fab so far, but the top's so thick I think the binding would look daft.Originally posted by Butch Snyder View Post

About Telecasters - I am not an expert on them. They're just my favorite. There are many here on this forum who know a lot more about them and their pickups than I. I just know what I like....Sometimes...-ButchComment

I just want one of these!
I've found I don't use a whole lot of the accessories in a guitar.
What the heck do you use a B-Bender for anyways?Originally posted by crusty philtrumOriginally posted by SecurbComment
