Hohner g3t : question

Re: Hohner g3t : question

i have this
i have some very good sounds : strat and a lot of gain and harmonics
but
the tremolo (vibrato) and the intonation are not good
it's an old and used one from the 80's lol

so, i can have this

i will put : EMG SAV x2 +EMG85
the same pickups than i have in the black guitar

i can buy a boost EMG ?or another thing
do you know what EMG makes like boost or other ?


i have the Steinberger spirit deluxe in H S H : the sounds was horrible
very bad and so dark
so i put sh1 + vintage rails+splits+ sh4 and now it's a good guitar
the clean sound is not amazing but with some gain, it's good
the vibrato is good too

the HOhner is a very good guitar
solid body
the price is higher than the Spirit Steinberger

it's a better guitar than the Spirit
look for a G3T and you will have very good clean sounds and amazing sh4 if you change pickups
very easy to play with 9-42

Hohner and Steinberger are different
but Hohner had a licence for tremolo

I installed a SD custom custom in the bridge and it sounds amazing, great distorted sound, very full

My Steinberger Synapse has a 59/Custom Hybrid w/double screws in it. Very awesome guitar, though.

Re: Hohner g3t : question

Oh, man! I used to have one of those when I was a full-time pro musician in the late '80s.

I loved that I could just give the guitar just to any pesky fan to try, as the lack of a head would confuse'em so much that almost nobody would be able to play it, so I always got it back at once and almost untouched.

I had serious problems with the three-switches to select and change p'ups on-the-fly, so I ultimately got a 5-way switch and a push-pull pot to coil-cut the bridge p'up.

The Select by EMG p'ups were nothing to write home about, unfortunately, and to get strings to those instruments ranged from difficult in certain countries I used to play to impossible in others, so, at the end, I just had to let go. Too unpractical for the working guitar player workflow.

Oh, the memories...

Re: Hohner g3t : question

Old thread, and difficult to follow some of it, but I like the left-handed vibrato arm option on a right-handed guitar. Wish all strat-type bridges were like that.
