ahhh that EJ and Code's guitar looks good :D
I've been an LP humbucker type of guy all my life but I can't decide whether to switch to singles or keep it hss. I'm borrowing a friend's tele right now with single neck and bridge and it sounds very fat. Maybe I'll just get a 3 single coil model and put very hot single pups in?
:dunno:
 
Find a good body and neck and go with HSS you get the best of both worlds!!
 
what's the word on 57 hotrods with mini humbucker? i dunno if i'd like tonezone but i've heard good clips.

IMO hot single coils still sound thin.

It's no humbucker no question about it but I think I'm kinda moving away from that super meaty juicy distortion sound. I'm just afraid I'll crave it again though.

If the body is routed for a HB you can always switch if the single isnt working. Just hearing the words "super meaty juicy distortion sound" gives me a boing boing!!!! :lol: :LOL: :D :thumbsup:

hahah yeah i like it at times but my writing style just started moving away from that a bit. haha. I'm craving me some sharp, bright open chord woody sound. Maple board strat mmmmhmmm :thumbsup:
 
Its a good time to buy one. A lot of great deals out there!! Happy hunting!! :rock:
 
Keep in mind that, if you do decide to go with an HSS style guitar, you'll want to run a custom wiring setup so the singles see 250k and the humbucker sees 500k. I'm currently doing that with some resistors placed in clever areas. I also run a push/pull to split the humbucker and my custom no-load tone pots.
 
This strat has been with me for years..Sold it once-big mistake! but i was lucky enough to get it back!

Teles always sound fatter than strats, imo, so don't judge your single coil experience with a tele.
I'd say get a tele and a strat :)
