    (PICS ADDED) Tom Anderson guitars... interesting! NGD

    Nice pics! All my guitar money is going to Suhr nowadays, but eventually I'll get around to trying out an Anderson. Austin

    SOLD: USA Diablo/Centaura/Bastardization with Josh Gravelin Humbuckers

    SOLD!!!   Diablo body, chunky Centaura neck, Josh Gravelin humbuckers in rings (aftermarket obviously) and the original trem replaced by a Schaller. Body wear here and there as you might expect, but nothing egregious. Same with the frets.   Here are a couple pics:    https://imgur.com/x9kDrst  ...

    Weezer cover Toto

    That cover is a great illustration of what a great groove Toto has. Austin

    PSA/Ebay 2006 Hamer Studio with TREM and OHSC

    I remember this when it was new at Wilcutts; it had regular humbuckers back then though :) Austin

    Which Saddles Do You Like On 3-Saddle Traditional Tele Bridges?

    I like the saddles on my ClassicT Pro. It's a Wilkinson with massive brass swivel saddles. I tried replacing them with Rutters compensated saddles. Immaculately crafted, but thinner sounding, not in a good way to me. I imagine they would do quite well with Rutters massive bridge plate though...

    Songs that change genres while being played

    The Affiliated by Dukes of the Stratosphear (aka XTC). Pure brilliance in both genres (genre shift at 1:08).. Austin

    I remember Don Johnson totally embarrassing himself. But Eddie ain't bad.

    Loved both these songs when I was a kid  :lol: Of course, I've developed a sense of taste since then so his new song not so much. It's not an embarrassment or anything though. - Austin

    Tell us about your non-Hamer and not custom-ordered preferred axe

    I played an Albert Lee years back in a store (3 P90 model IIRC) and was just stunned by how incredibly comfortable it was. I believe the humbuckers in the HH model are the same ones they use the Axis, so it makes sense they would be hot and dark. Maybe just swap them out for something lower...

    Tell us about your non-Hamer and not custom-ordered preferred axe

    Yes, my T is alder. All the Pro series ones with rosewood boards are. I didn't have a strong preference in terms of body wood either way, but some reason I don't like maple fretboards, so alder was the only option. The JM's great, but it's more like a tele on steroids than the Thorn. The fact...

    Tell us about your non-Hamer and not custom-ordered preferred axe

    I have these: and a Pete Thorn model and another Standard (and no money LOL). My Classic T Pro is a bit unique in that it was part of a small special run with arm contours and belly cuts. Because of this, it plays better for me than any other T type (although, the T51 with its...

    One of my Suhrs. Can't really say that I have a fave though. Been really digging the Pete Thorn model lately. Shockingly (though not unpleasingly) bright with everything up to ten, but roll the tone back to around seven and the volume down a touch and it does the whole vintage 2-humbucker guitar...
