Don't make it easier! Everybody deserves to suffer and chase their tail.

Good stuff.

Q: Are CVs / Rondos / Agiles / MIMs as good as, or better than Fender Custom Shop guitars?

A: Here at TDPRI they are.

You forgot:
Which color Pickguard should I put on my tele?
Do the white guards have a brighter sound and the black ones have a darker sound....

I'm sorry, but after 46 years of playing guitar, I have to disagree.

The best string to use is the one holding the note that you want to play.

Thank you very much, next show is at 10.

Don't forget...

Q: Which type of saddles sound better, steel or brass? A: Either.
Q: Compensated or straight? A: Sometimes.
Q: Are A2/A3/A5 Alnico pickups better in the neck/bridge of my tele? A: Whatever you say.
Q: What neck profile/thickness is the best ever? A: One with strings on it that's bolted to a body.



This thread is definitely running the risk of driving forum activity to a crawl...

If you don't play a Tele for half an hour, then don't play a Strat for 30 minutes, which one sounds better?

Just saw this one in another thread:

Q: Will having a tele with a neck humbucker route sound different than a tele with only a single coil route?
A: No, but it won't sound the same either.
