Really envy guys who can do rockabilly stuff like that.. actual playing around 3:00

great for clean, jazzy style playing

dont like them for heavy stuff

not cos u wanna be like eric johnson right?

no lah, just curious whats differ from normal tele haha, guess the thinline cut really improve the guitar "acoustically" since ada reply its good for clean/jazz stuff

improve acoustically by loudness... well not gonna sound like acoustic for sure.
will give it a more airy feel, not electric yet not semi hollow...
i would rather go get epiphone es339...

a solidbody tele will have more punch and presence

whereas a thinline will have a scoopier voice, and natural reverb kind of effect

Coldplay's Jonny Buckland is a good example of using a thinline tele (his with humbuckers) which made for a softer, singing tone.

i wont say its an improvement of tele though, you get the "acoustic" but loosen the "cut" somehow. give and take loh..

dont know why, i love gregs playing but always never liked how he does things

too loud for my tastes

sigh getting old, should adopt more cats soon

yes and no

just think of it as a mellow tele, its no hollow body, nor a semi hollow, but just a tele without some of its signature attack

On a side note, EQing recordings of telecasters is a bitch

Was tracking some guitar parts for one of my project bands and the guitarist had a tele with the tone knob dimed (obviously ). After the session I had a devil of a time trying to figure out how to deal with the damnably piercing ice-picky sounds and salvage the material.

Note to self: set tele tones to 4 max. Beat the next guy who cranks it

add a pinch of delay lol

teles are nasty, they are like an ice pick parade ready to go, then they hate really bright amps and heavy attacks. somewhat the opposite of a strat really

haha add de-esser like vocal

strats can be super bright too, it's just that usually people dont go for the rear pickup alone

i dunno whats the point a tele with the tone on 4, might as well use a ibanez

ya, u use a tele based on what u want...not to force the tele to be something its not.

No, I use a tele based on what my guitarist has at his disposal if it were up to me, aku campak tele tu jauh2

u could have lent him one of ur atas guitars... like how mike clink bought that lp for slash to use on the re-recorded tracks for appetite

Cannot la like dat, I dont want to seem condescending. Besides, he's sooo in love with that damnable piece of wood, who am I to tear them apart?

aiseh, dont u want to create the next apetite?
imagine if slash kept the bc rich and jackson tracks on apetite... he'll be flipping burgers at burger king now...
but the producer saved his ass... and in return they both became legendary...

Aiyo, sedih aku baca bro, its been years since I gave up on the dream of making the next big thing in music...reality check had hit fast and hard, these days I just do music for the sheer joy of it n not much else

nm, then next best thing.. u saja retrack his parts with a les paul.
then when he hears the final product... u just say... u macam jimmy page la... buat tele sound macam les paul...

they can, but strats likes to be spanked

teles, once you start hitting it slightly hard = ice pick

hahaha dis concept I very like the racun is strong with this one
