Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Re: P90 Guitar Search
The Revstars are really cool, I remember seeing Amy Shark playing one live and it sounded great. I'd have a look at G&L's ASAT Specials. I have an ASAT Super and their MFD pickups are wicked.

Re: P90 Guitar Search
That looks cool AF. Reg had a Revstar with Seth Lovers in it and it was a cool guitar. If they'd do a fat neck on one I'd be totally in.

Re: P90 Guitar Search
Those Revstars are very cool! They were above my budget though, and I wanted a chunkier neck. So I went for a 2020 Epiphone LP Special. I expect those Revstars will have better build quality though. My LP needed a bit of fret dressing, bridge adjustment, and nut slot adjustment on the 6th string.

That's the one I was considering. Loved that look.

Re: P90 Guitar Search
Just get that SE ONE. There's so few of them in the world and they're so good you can't lose.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

The higher end Revstars like this one have a chunkier neck.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Re: P90 Guitar Search
They look nice, but getting pricey and have skinny 60's neck.

Re: P90 Guitar Search
I'm thinking I may just put some nice HB sized P90's in my SE first, that would be the cheapest thing to try first.

Re: P90 Guitar Search
I wonder if there's such a thing as adapter ring for p90s in humbucker routes.

Re: P90 Guitar Search
I think the one Reg had for sale was a 420. I'm pretty sure The 320 and 420 have a slim neck profile with medium frets. All the models above that have a medium profile with Jumbo frets. I guess still maybe not fat enough?kdawg2a wrote:That looks cool AF. Reg had a Revstar with Seth Lovers in it and it was a cool guitar. If they'd do a fat neck on one I'd be totally in.
