Need some advice on guitarsss!

Post by Sonic Viking »

I'm thinking about getting a new solid body guitar soon. But, I have no idea whether I should look into a Telecaster Deluxe with wide range pick-ups. Which I've heard that the new ones don't actually have real wide ranges or a Fender Mustang, both seem pretty awesome, and I've tried out both and I love their tones. If you guys can give some opinions or info about them that could help push me a little towards a decision. That'd be great :)

The G&L ASAT deluxe's can be 1500 for american and 800 for tribute, I believe. The tribute really is great, if you aren't one of those 'has to be in the usa' type. G&L does great stuff.

split the difference and try a Blacktop Jag.
I've played a friend's and was suprised by how cool it felt.
if you want the WRHB sound (that I dig), Curtis Novak makes some WRHBs that fit.
I'm thinking about putting together just such a guit myself.
Maybe partying will help.
