Re: acoustic pic ups (7 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
I use a seymour duncan single coil woody currently . Its a bit lacking in gain but if you use a di box into the pa its fine ,It lacks a volume control but a vol pedal solves that problem.however in comparison to my ovation with its built in peizo the sound isnt true acoustic but has a slight electric feel but this is ok as some of the songs we do in our acoustic set benefit from this .My resonator has an old p90 stuck on with double sided tape and it sounds great

Re: loopers? (12 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
I have a boss rc 2 which I find great for solo practice but I dont use it live as I find it hard to time the stop start as it requires a double click . The only live use Ive done with it was about a year ago when I needed to make a rythm track for a solo gig ,I got round the stop problem by having the engineer fade the finish for me from the desk

Re: American Strat or Mexican Strat? (35 replies, posted in Electric)
I cant comment on the mexican strat but I can re the mexican tele . I have a mexican blacktop tele and my freind has an american standard tele both are great the only decernable difference I can tell was the cost . from a personal view I prefer mine as it came with humbuckers and a reversed volume pot .all I can say realy is go to the shop and try both If you feel the american one is worth the money buy it I'll stick with the cheapy

Re: semi hollow advice (17 replies, posted in Electric)
I tried the dot and the gibson 335 when I was looking for a semi but I ended up buying the Vintage vs 535 as the slimmer neck felt better as I have small hands . I find it plays great and suits my style.

Re: Ovation Guitars (35 replies, posted in Acoustic)
I have an aplause which I gig regularly ,my mate has an ovation both are good but the electrics on the ovation are better I find that the aplause pre amp does geneate a little feed back where as my mates doesnt ,but youve got to look at the cost and the Applause is about £300 cheaper , and as we only do a couple of acoustic tunes in the set I find it ok in terms of playabuility and sound quality, the neck is very slim and playable much more like an electric.
