Any guitar players on TW?

Guitar companies that make V- shaped bodies:

Gibson
ESP/LTD
Schecter
Jackson
Dean

Who else am I missing....?

 

Kramer made flying V's for a while...as does Ibanez and BC RICH...remember those!!!???

 

Thanks, I didn’t know about any of these.

Looks like Kramer has a sexy V, the “Nite-V”! Unfortunately, it’s not in the neck scale that I want.

I don’t see any current V models from Ibanez. They did have the V-Blade, maybe a decade ago?

B.C. Rich junior V has all of the stats I want, but it looks very cheap.

I know I’m picky, I guess I’ll have to get a Jackson.

 

oh my, sorry, I did not realize you were looking to buy one...yeah, Kramer doesn't exist...not sure what is up with Ibanez these days..and BC Rich were inexpensive but looked cool as heck...

You should do well with Jackson...or, Dean I think has a Dimebag Darrell guitar if I'm not mistaken...a decent guitar for under $1K....??? I'm a PRS guy strictly these days so not 100% sure what is out there so don't listen to me...

 

I appreciate the advice! I am a PRS lover myself.

 

Chapman makes one now too.

 

Thanks!!

It pretty much has all the specs I want... I’ll have to look up some demos on YouTube later.

 

Yanked my low E off and tuned the Tele to open G. Paired with my Les Lius and Deluxe Reverb, I'm having fun with the mid-era Stones tones:

Using my Boothill Amps F51 Champ clone I built from a kit a couple years ago: (not my video)

Snagged a great deal on a lightly used PRS S2 Mira - sure didn't need it, but I've never owned a PRS before and the price was right. Very light weight, and very comfortable to play.

 

Here’s my weekend office

 

Those ocd pedals are bad a $$. Heard the bigger one you have this past week and was very impressed.

 

When you say the big one do you mean the FullDrive 2 ?

 

yeah, I'm pretty sure it is the one you have perpendicular to the rest of your pedals...I could be wrong though...but regardless was impressed. my buddy has it in line with his vox amp and really improved his distortion tone.

 

In my case I use it as my light dirty and layer the ocd's. I'm running though a Fender Blues Jr iii.

 

interesting..i run through a deville and LOVE the distortion tone, but was not digging the vox distortion on its own. The OCD, it thought, was a great improvement. I can see why you would want the other OCD's for various "colors" with the blues jr though...good idea!

 

Try a Friedman BE-OD if you want some fat heavy tone it’s a cranked Marshall and then some.

 

What’s everyones go to song they play?

Mines Stevie Ray Vaughan’s
1.Little wing
2.life without you.

My two favorites to play on any guitar.

I play mostly improv stuff, but I've been working on Sultans Of Swing for a while and keep going back to it. Man that's not an easy song to learn!
