Spanking an Esquire

[Alvin Lee Fan]

Hey, how's it goin'?

Made a little clip recently of my Esquire conversion. This is a custom Tele that I converted to an Esquire with the schematic help from some of the guys here! Thanks bros

Anyway, my Esquire with a Rio Muy Grande bridge pickup. Forgive the sleazy wah stuff at the end, I need to work on technique. Haven't had a wah pedal in over 20 years, picked one up a couple weeks ago for some kicks.

I'm not in love with this pickup, I might try a DiMarzio Pre B-1 in there.

Re: Spanking an Esquire

great tune and tone man! I've been thinkin of gettin an esquire soon, for some reason simplicity really appeals to me now. I can't decide between a les paul junior or an esquire!

Thanks guys! The setup is the Esquire into a Rte 66 pedal used as a clean boost mostly, added the OD side towards the end there, into the wah, Sundown amp head, 2x10 cab with Emi speakers.

Re: Spanking an Esquire

Thanks again guys! I just got a Roy Buchanan CD and I'm inspired. I'm almost certainly going to sub a lower output pickup into this thing and try for that tone

Hey Al, fire up the beautiful custom amp buddy :smoker:
