To me, It just sounds better when playing with a small group (bass and drums). It just seems to shine in that setting. But I think that's just because of the way I play (or the lack thereof). Quite simply, I am keeping mine!

This makes total sense to me. I use my DeArmond 2000 SC equipped Gretsch with great results in a trio or duo situation. I tried to play it in a 7 piece band, and it was bad, too middy, lost in the mix !
Tele295, I've never seen so many CC pups in one photo !
As a CC connoisseur, which one would you advertise for the best clean tone, complex warm and punchy ?
