    Anybody play Dimarzio pickups?

    I won't change the pups in my Custom Shop LP's, but I have DiMarzios in 2 Strats and one Tele. The Area T's in my Tele are great. I have Area 58's and an Area 61 in one Strat and a Heavy Blues II/Pro 54/Virtual Solo in the other. The 2 are completely different animals, but both sound great. I do...

My other guitars are all Gibson Custom Shop, Partscasters (all Fender Am Std.necks and American or German...

    Like I said in an earlier post. If you want V30's or C90's(Lead 80's) that are still made in the UK. Mesa sells them on their website 8ohm or 16ohm. They are made special for Mesa by Celestion. Whenever anyone refers to Americans, they are talking about the USA. Wether they love us or hate...

    Are all Celestions now made in China???

    What's made in China, should stay in China. They treat their own people like shit, so why would they care about the quality of their exports. I have an Epiphone 56 Goldtop (made in China) and it's the worst piece of shit guitar I own. I'd burn it, but I'm afraid that it'll give off toxic fumes...

    Opinions on the PRS SE Custom 24

    Had a Custom22 about 5yrs ago. Got rid of it after a year. Went back to Les Paul Historics. It was a beautiful looking guitar, but didn't like the feel.

    That thin wire on the bridge

    Tone Pros makes a nice replacement bridge. It looks exactly the same except the spring is just for decoration and even if it breaks, the saddles stay in.

    My Warmoth Collection

    I know the feeling. Started with a Tele and it's turned into 2 Teles and 2 Strats. Used original Fender necks.

    Who likes the Gibson Les Paul?

    I like em! Also like Teles. Love the Fender maple necks, but for Rock, nothing beats a Paul.

    Wilder is right. I have 3 Mesa cabs set at 8 Ohms and all the speakers are 16 Ohm. It's an easy fix.
