Yes.. but only recently he switched.

All the "classic" Green Day were done on a Fernandes Strat copy with a Seymour Duncan humbucker.

CTS pots are the way to go for regular passives.
both gibson and fender have them, even the MIM.

price not sure...guessing around RM30-40 for malaysian prices.

welll, for a guitar that costs alot, its a small investment anyway to put in CTS pots.
else you can order online, about USD5-6 each, not including shipping.

Pot = potentiometer
ie an electrical device with adjustable resistance

used to adjust volume, tone... look at the volume or tone knob on guitar.

u cant say it like this just because u dont like their music...open your mind pls...if u dont like it...dont comment...
lol a noob that can never take sarcasm

what i mean was if you just want to learn those simple 3-chord song and don't want to progress to a more complex genre, why would you need to spend on an expensive guitar?

back in the day, i can play any nirvana/blink182/green day song just using a kapok. only when go jamming i could get my hands on an electric guitar. talking about someone who did not have money to spend on gears.

what's wrong playing an SX?

p/s: sorry for being harsh tongue.gif

@soulfly: last time i didn't have enough money to even buy an acoustic guitar tongue.gif until i inherited my sisters classical(i still use and take care of it now) the classical was in pretty bad shape but now i touch up change strings looks nice again thumbup.gif

just buy the best guitar you can afford now.
musical tastes always change, so just play what you want.
look at blacktrix...from green day to bls to justin timberlake tongue.gif

then when you start work etc, you can upgrade to an even better guitar.
