NEW GUITAR

Speak to me, babies.

I want a new guitar. I love my telecaster but want to add to my collection.

No, I don't want to go Gibson, I want to stay Fender.

I also want "different."

Right now at the top of my list is the Fender Jaguar.

Here's my question:

Get the $600 Japanese one that features two humbuckers, or go with a $1300 American and then go to the trouble of replacing the humbuckers myself?

Wii is amazing, I got one last week. I think it's luck in getting one, we happened to walk into a target that got 12ish by suprise. And why would you buy a more expensive item requiring alteration when there's a cheaper one with the option you want?

Well, when I was looking for a new guitar, I swore to myself I wasn't going to be cliche and get a Stratocaster. Yet, a deal came along and I got me one. I have to say I love it. I might have the stock pickups replaced (I would love to replace the bridge single w/ a humbucker...), but it works great. But if you're really into getting something "different" from fender, here's some that I have found (though I haven't played any of these):

Fender Toronado

Reverse Strat (think Hendrix for right handers, sort of)

Fender Mustang

and of course the Jaguar. Hope this helps! Let us know what you get.

I would go for a Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster. It comes with vintage noiseless pickups and a nice translucent finish (as long as you get a color other than black).

I have both a Fender American Standard Strat and a Gibson Les Paul Standard and I end up playing my strat about 80% of the time. The Paul is a heavy guitar that I find a little harder to play. I can get the sweetest tones out of the strat.

I have a 52 Telecaster, a Highway Strat and a Toronado GT.
they all sound pretty good and it depends on the mood. of course the 52 is awsome and the highway is nice, but if you want "different" you should try the Toronado GT. go check it out somewhere.
(besides the fact that it sounds good it also very very good looking)
i must say, a Jaguar sounds very nice.

did anyone here tried or owns a Jazzmaster?

go for Gibson!... the models GODESS of the SG are awesone... i know that is a line for girls... but the colors are awesone man!

I actually got two Wiis.... I just walked into Target yesterday morning to buy leggings and POW! They had in a shipment so I bought two! I'm selling the other one off... I still need extra controllers though.

And go for the cheaper guitar.



~*wOOt!*

hey " The Turkey "

Is your tele mexican?"
How good does it sound?


Cus I'm Planning on buyin onee....

btw, I already have a standard strat

Taylor, why did you have $500 just lying around so you could buy two Wiis?

credit...

its a beautiful thing.
and she can prob. pay of the retail of the two with whatever she sells the other for.

i played Zelda today... very interesting

My Tele is Mexican, yes. I love it to death and as far as I'm concerned it's a far, far better value than the American one. The Americans are just made by Mexicans in California, anyway.

I know Stratocasters are pretty "popular" but I loved my Fat Strat... great guitar, not expensive, and had amazing sound.

Well, I tutor kids for 20/hour, which is kind a ridiculous price for me doing almost nothing. It's all under the table too, and I do at least six hours a week. So that's why I walk around buying Wiis.
