What do you think about the Sire Larry Carlton H7s? They look kinda like a 335.
TBH I wouldn't buy a semi hollow again that I couldn't lay hands on first. You could get a dog or you could get something that might be your favorite axe ever. More likely you get an average guitar but vs a solid body I think the particular instrument can vary more greatly among the same or similar models. A good semi or full hollow thinline really sings acoustically which translates to a great plugged in tone.
 
18 more fucking hours before this shit box gets here.

This has been a miserably long week.

Its going to be a very difficult night

Definitely going to need some weed and 101 to get me to bed later

Why does all my shit have to come from the west coast. Time and time again 2700 mile trip to NY

No decent used teles east of ohio? WTF

Franklin sent me a private offer of $639 on that red Ultra 2 body, I almost did it. I can't see the point of having two of them.

Glad you’re digging it. I’ve been pretty impressed with the ultra series I’ve picked up, $1600 is a solid deal for that.
 
Don't be afraid to throw some distortion at those pickups, they handle it well.
 
I am curious to know how much the belly cut helps.. I can not gel with a normal tele due to that, Les Pauls dont bother me though.
Only played tonight 3 hours sitting down
Didn't notice anything different.
Going to run it through a full practice tomorrow

Probably a dumb question, but do you regularly play a vintage style tele?
 
I’ve got this beautiful JWVann tele that just sits in the rack mostly. It plays great.

Never did.
I had a GL blues boy which i traded for this. My other is a squier affinity.
Which for $229 is a fabulous guitar
 
Sick. I wish my tele had a belly carve and that thinned out neck.
