which guitar beside my teles?
hi all
I own 3 teles: 52RI copper 97, highway one (lollar pups), Cabronitised MIM standard.

I play all kind of musics, from 70's rocks to reggae

I'm thinking of a fourth guitar, rather different. It should have a big sound, humbuckers probably....

First thought of Gibson but: 335 is too big, lespaul is too heavy,
My luthier told me about Parker, but too ugly...

I'm thinking of SG.... something else?

LP or SG Junior or Specials are nice.

SG - almost as comfy as a Tele, if you use a wide strap to counter the head-dipping tendencies...

You're not alone, my friend...

Actually, I'd slap a Bigsby or Maestro Vibrola on there...

Lp special (tribute to B Marley) and SG (txs F Zappa) are very tempting...

the new Fender Blacktop Strat



or a Jag



also, a Les Paul Studio is chambered (as are some other current models) so they are not so heavy. i have one and love it:

yep. I thought about prs too. In France, we have Godin who makes very nice guitars. But... Gibson is a bit of Legend isnn't it?

Sg faded series are so cheap. Very tempting. Does someone owns or tried one and can give me some infos about neck. (difficult to find a shop around for try...)

You want something different, but with 'buckers? But you typically like the tele sound? This is your ticket.

Wait a bit longer, buying a guitar when you're half-cocked may cause you impulse buy-the wrong axe!

Some of the photos in this thread have incredible looking guitars in them!
