andrewjunior Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 thinkin bout getting a peewee, just for shits. makin a mini-me for my junior. wondering what the bridge on the peewee is. i can't tell from the pic on the epi site and haven't seen any better pics... I KNOW that it's not a great guitar. and i know it's not necessarily gonna be used daily... but i'm bored and i need something to do... plus, starting a ska band, and it'd be pretty rad to pull that out during a show.

deflepfan Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 The Pee Wee comes with one or the other of these bridges/tails/ Not familiar with the first, as to what it is called, but it is a fully adjustable bridge. The second is the wraparound, like the Junior, [/img] Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sjael Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I'd recommend the LP Express personally, it's a bit bigger, but it tunes to standard, rather than G (I think) on the peewee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animalfarm Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 EggMuffins wants to start a thread on mini-gits, perhaps a comment will appear. I have a J. Reynolds Mini-LP... I tune mine to G, and actually use it to play "Fool for your Stockings" by ZZ, and of course blues rhythm and leads. Lead bends take HALF or less the distance as regular git. Definitely fun to play. Break it out, folks laugh, then jaw drops when the tone comes out! Harder than H@LL to find one with 2 HBs, and a full set of Vol and Tone knobs, plus a tuneomatic bridge!!!!!

Reynolds is very cool! Have you tried using heavy strings and tuning it to standard pitch? What's the scale length on your mini? I've had good luck with a fairly heavy set (13s, IIRC, with a wound G) on my Synsonics Jr. Pro mini guitar. Old Ampeg Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to get home from a stupid business trip, then figure out ratdog's Image Shack tutorial:-({|= ... &, hey, I'm only a bass playing Aussie after all[confused] , but here is my Lobo Mini G (& if anyone can tell me anything about this sweet little geet I would be most appreciative... FYI, I picked her up in Hong Kong in 2001)... but, anyway, I'm really pleased some Epi-heads out there were kinda having the same thoughts about our 'Mystery Midgets' Keep 'em coming guys... eggmuffins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggs Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Epi-heads, If I could emulate a 'Death Metal Growl' on this Forum it would sound like this... SHOW ME YOUR MYSTERY MIDGETS C'mon, I'm sure some of you guys are 'packin heat' on this thread! eggmuffins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggs Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Cool... Thanks Peter ...& what do you make of the bridge PUP on the Lobo? eggmuffins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old_Ampeg_Guy Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I think this deserves a bump. I've linked a pic to my Synsonics Jr. Pro with Seymour and Schallers already (in a different thread), but I could link a better shot or try to post it inline, as most here do. It's not a terribly practical guitar, but it's fun! Anyone else have minis? Lotuses, or Sammys, or Rogues, or ?? Back in the '80s, Sammy not only made a two-pickup mini LP, but a mini P-Bass! (I saw both in a guitar store back then.) The scale was tiny, and I always wondered what gauge of strings it would take to get it near standard bass pitch. Probably impossible. eggmuffins, did yours come with that bridge pickup? It's interesting that the pickups are of two different types (you didn't buy it new, did you?).

I SAID...SHOW ME YOUR MYSTERY MIDGETS! eggmuffins, did yours come with that bridge pickup? It's interesting that the pickups are of two different types (you didn't buy it new, did you?) The 'LOBO' was absolutely brand new, & remains stock standard, from when I purchased same in Hong Kong in 2001... so, what is that bridge PUP about? (kinda akin to Peter's Steinberger examples)... &, could it be possible that this 'Mini G' might finally be the geet to 'stump' our most learned Epi-head Fraternity:-k eggmuffins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
