milod Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I guess this may offer a little insight... I can't imagine playing Wildwood Flower with a flatpick on the 175, and I can't imagine playing Misty fingerstyle on the big flattop. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 To me having a bunch of guitars is cool but it is more of a distraction than the benefit, while some do add to the palate of tones sounds or whatever I seem to end up dialing things similarly. Being a relentless modder is also a distraction with every new guitar I get here comes a new project. I once heard somebody say, be careful that the equipment you own does not end up owning you and that is very true. I do try to let the guitar do it's thing, a set of single coils, will not respond the same way a set of humbuckers do. Usually it's a matter of tweaking the gain settings, and of course, the Q settings (treble, mid, bass) -- I know the sweet spots, so that's where I'll go, some times it's subtle, but yet different enough for the nuances to come thru I'm not really all that much of a modder, so that is usually NOT a problem. I'm not sure I related to the other comment, (be careful that the equipment you own does not end up owning you) but sometimes, it's a great debate on which axe comes along. Maybe that's part of what you are getting to. -- Milod --> Exactly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
