BSAKing Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Product ID he gives - assume serial # - comes up unrecognized..... Seems a little pricey but has a number of upgrades listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little pricey??? I had one just like it and it's a $275 guitar tops with the upgrades IMHO. They are OK but not worth his asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captmidnight Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 well the pictures look like it is a set neck and a P-90 pickup...BUT the write up says bolt on neck and humbucker. hmmmmm...wonder which it will be...lol Capt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfrets Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Nah...he can keep it , but if anybody finds a double-cut Junior (TV Yellow) with a P90, let me know. But I suspect at the going rate for one of those now, I could probably get a set neck version from Dillion for about the same price... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad1 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 well the pictures look like it is a set neck and a P-90 pickup...BUT the write up says bolt on neck and humbucker.hmmmmm...wonder which it will be...lol Capt Exactly my first thought too. But either way, $530 is way too much to pay for that guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluelake07 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Single-pickup guitars seem too limiting to me. Pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snookelputz Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 True. Only very few artists were good enough to go beyond the limitations of the guitar itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medic24 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Yeah, I been gassin for one of those..... but not for that price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layboomo Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 True. Only very few artists were good enough to go beyond the limitations of the guitar itself. Leslie West did pretty well with a Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

custer Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Single pickups are great for slide playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Lister Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 1 pup does not = a 1 trick pony A single does a lot of tricks with a little inexpensive "training" using push/pull pots and a 3-way or rotary switch. Those extra pup(s) look cool so they sell a lot more guitars, but may be added expense that many don't even need...? Hit every BLUE NOTE baaaby..., I'm going to play on:-" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L1Picker Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I was very excited to get my hands on one of those when they came out. When mine arrived I noticed that the pickup cavity had been routed well off center and all the pole pieces were offset to one side. It made an audible difference, especially in the high E. Sadly, I sent it back. It was a beautiful guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
