Kind of New Guitar Day?

Post by ReidySetGo »

Just got my guitar back from Keith MacMillan who installed some Lindy Fralin Vintage Hots and set it up.

It's a Japanese Fender, I have just had refinished as the original fotoflame was cracked and looked awful.

I never use the bridge pickup on my other Strat so I wanted to do something like Kida Motifour's from the band Tricot.

Yeah for sure, love those dudes. I've been on a math rock and Midwest emo binge for a while now.

I think most people would probably think the same, i'm not really big into humbuckers either and its routed for sss so it would have had to have been one of those single coil sized ones.

No, I'm pretty sure they cancelled the NZ leg because they were toured out. I haven't really listened to much Chon. I missed them when they played in China while I was there too. I think they would probably be neat live but I'm not sure if their studio stuff does too much for me.
