Pecan_Pie Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Those are purty - how does it sound? It actually sounds really great. Very warm cause of the humbuckers and hollowbody, but not muddy. Defidently sound great through a big old tube amp. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BolivarBaLues Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 (edited) Hey Giant Steps, love the handle. I'm a big Coltrane freak. Fender Tele with Harmonic Design Super-90 in the bridge and Harmonic Design Vintage Plus in the neck position. Epiphone Sheraton II with Jason Lollar Imperial Humbuckers. 1975 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe with Seymour Duncan Phat Cat in the bridge and Seymour Duncan '59 in the neck. Peavey Classic 30 tube amp cheap powered pedal board with a Boss TU-2 tuner, modified Ibanez Tube Screamer TS9DX, Boss GE-7 EQ (used for volume boost when I solo), and a cheap Bespeco volume pedal that I never use. I'm not big into effects; I've always said that the best effect is a good guitar player. And god help me if I ever start dropping the name "Line 6" or rambling on about modeling technology. Bleck. I've played in rock groups for over 20 years - did some touring earlier this year, playing Bonnaroo in three weeks, after that, picking up gigs here and there. Not hard to find in this town.

How do you like those Super-90 pickups? Do you retain any twang? I've been thinking it would be cool to get a tele routed for a humbucker in the neck, but use a Super-90 in the bridge and a Z-90 in the neck, What band are you playing with at Bonaroo?

I've been thinking it would be cool to get a tele routed for a humbucker in the neck, but use a Super-90 in the bridge and a Z-90 in the neck, What band are you playing with at Bonaroo? I love the Super-90s! Another musician friend of mine swears by them, too, and he has them in a Tele and a Paul. They do have a touch of the Tele twang, but that classic Tele tone is not readily identifiable. They're bright, but not brittle, have loads of definition. The individual notes of a chord are recognizable even with loads of overdrive. The dynamic range of these things is terrific. You can back off the volume half-way or so and get some cleaner tones and gradually introduce more attack and bite by increasing the volume. I suppose the sound is somewhere between classic Tele and a P-90, but with a bit more output than a Tele pickup. Hot enough, but not super-hot and certainly not overwound. The owner is super-nice and very helpful. He'll help you achieve what you're looking for tone-wise. As for the humbucker in the neck, that's a cool setup. They also have a humbucker version of the Vintage Plus. The single coil version is a great match for the Super-90, so I'd be curious to hear how the humbucker sounds in conjunction. When I bought mine several years ago, the owner had reccommended matching the Super-90 with the Vintage Plus single coil. I'm playing with The Tim Lee Band; Nightclub Tent, Sunday night at 7.

I'm planning on tweaking my board setup--- getting rid of some of the Bosses... get a Prescription Electronics DualTone, Fulltone Mini DejaVibe, and some other ones. Also, zvex makes some amazing pedals (Loop Junky, Fuzz probe [check em out]) that i wouldnt mind having. sorry about the length Quote Link to post Share on other sites
