Well, Hendrix used an SG on Red House. So, I would expect your twin humbuckers and short scale, with 24 fret neck should do it in spades. Fuzz and wah into a Bassman or Marshall amp cranked up and you're there.

Man, PRS and flats, huh? Yeah, that's me! LOL I actually switched to flats on almost all of my guitars a little over a decade ago. At the time, I was playing my Gretsches a lot. I tried D'Addario Chromes first. Hated them from the get-go. Kept reading about these Thomastic-Infleds...

I play my '58 Twin out.... I used to play my '68 ES-340 out. I play what makes me feel good about the way I sound, or feels good to my hands when I'm playing. I don't think of price tags. If I thought of price tags, I doubt I'd ever buy much in the way of music gear... LOL

Yeah, wait till she starts calling you 'Old Man', like my son has... The little bastard. I remember the first time I ever saw or played a Gibson ES-140... The little 3.4 size student semi-hollow. My buddy walked up, I pulled it in front of me and said, "Does this guitar make me look fat'...

I love the King of All Amps.... My 1958 high powered tweed Twin. 80 watts of tweed juiciness on tap for any situation. I restored it a few years ago. It originally came to me like this:

I had a set of the first version P-Rails and this was my experience. All three sounds were okay. But, nothing that excited me or motivated me. That pretty much cured me of any desire to find an 'All-In-One'. I am now of the same mindset as DogRocketP, I want guitars that each do their own...

Only if you don't bring cables with you... If the wireless fails, you just swap in a cable. Isn't that the same as if you had a cable failure? Honestly, chances are, if I'm using a wireless, I'm bringing cables... in case batteries die, in case a transmitter dies, etc. If I'm using...

When I'm home, I still do use cables. If I was in a studio, I'd use cables. On stage with the rest of the band? Nobody out there hears any difference in tone! LOL But, that doesn't mean there isn't one, nor will I ever put anyone down for sticking with cables, for any reason!

Here it is: Wireless Case

I am a fan of the G30 system. Standard 1/4" cable was a huge, huge factor in my original purchase. The battery door on the transmitter is, however, a huge PITA. It is flimsy and a bit disappointing. I picked up a little neoprene bag for wireless transmitters. It has a couple of little...

Don't feel bad about those changes, to that guitar, at all! I have one of the yellow '17 SE's. I loved so much about the guitar... Except the pickups. So, I spent about 1/2 of the buy-in price (I got mine used) on just custom pickups. Then went with good pots and stuff, too. Now, it is...

I may have run some nut files through the slots to size them properly. Although, honestly, I can't remember. I use the Jazz Swing 10's. So, not a huge jump in size. But, sometimes I still need to do some touch ups. But, I use 10's on everything (except my Resonator) these days and am used...

They haven't even caused the mildest friction on my Santana SE.... But, I use Thomastik Infled Jazz Swings. They may be too cool to cause an explosion?

Despite the assumption I'm a Catholic.... Honestly, why would you pull the neck? That seems like adding more work that's unnecessary. If you want to preserve the body, cover it well before you work on the guitar. I have nothing negative to say about you restoring that guitar. In fact, i...

I feel all of y'all's pain! LOL A few years ago, I moved across the Country. I left a four-piece electric band and an acoustic duo. The 4 piece was making inroads into regional success and the acoustic duo was with an internationally known, multi W.C. Handy award winner. We were touring a...
