Then I saw this new Fender Tele Deluxe Black Dove with P-90's:eek5: Anyone got any experience with these? The Pro Guitar Shop demo is giving me some hard GAS
Re: Thoughts on the Fender Tele Deluxe Black Dove?
I may be totally off, but I think you would be hard-pressed to replace the sound of a LP Special P-90 w/a Fender P-90 guitar. I have owned a lot of P-90 equipped guitars and I never got the Gibby P-90 sound from a fender. Now I did get some really great sounds from fenders w/ P-90s. If a P-90 sound is all you're looking for then, this should be wonderful...I just don't think it will sound like your old Gibby. I absolutely love Teles w/P-90s!!!! They ROCK!

It won't sound like a Les Paul Special.
It will sound like a Telecaster with P90's.
So it'll probably sound pretty good.

Well, there is a reason I got rid of it
It was a bit too dark and I can't stand a 24 2/4" scale anymore.
I love strats and teles now and love P-90's, so I figured, where could I go wrong?

If you like that P90 Tele idea, you may be pleasantly surprised by the Squier Tele Custom II. Just remember to upgrade the machineheads.

I get really nervous about P90 routs, because I like to change stuff around and see what I get. Gibson has the P94, which is a P90 in a full humbucker-sized pup. Am really digging this idea, leaves room for change.

aaaand none of them sound exactly like true P90's :smokin:
Of course neither will the Fender Black Dove Single Coils. That's what they call P90's

Just enlightening the poster who apparently thought that only P94s can do the "P90 in a humbucker sized case" trick.
There are lots of humbucker sized P90s out there - and I think GFS Mean 90s are the best.

I'd rather have a Fender JA-90.

Yeah, this one has been on my mind too. I've tried one before and it was awesome. The best Indonesian made guitar I have ever played. I'm just not sure if a want a chambered body guitar (even if just around the f-hole like on JA-90).
