Terry Kath loved to solo on his neck p/u and got a great, fat tone - the way I think a neck HB should sound. Here are a few examples, pulled from his extended solos on the Carnegie Hall album (each about a minute long and ~2 MB).

so out of the original 800s, not the re-issues, which had the best sound and why?

I'm loading up some Webers into my new 2x12 cab and I have two questions.

If I come up with a 2xEL34 Franklin, should I change the name to something completely different or work the name Franklin into it?

I know this may sound weird but I'm wondering if a C-5 is hot enough to keep up with my other guitars for a heavy, drop C metal tone. I've got a JB in my McCarty Standard and am putting a Custom in my Custom 22. I want something ballsy for my singlecut but don't want to double up on the same pickups in different guitars. While I realize they won't sound the same because all my guitars are different in body shape, I just want some extra diversity. I do not want a Duncan Distortion especially. If I could find another pickup I would be happier. Any suggestions from people who have actually tried the C-5 in this particular situation let me know.

$407 (shipped!)for a Avatar w/ Celestion V30's is crazy, i see these go for this price or around it all the time.

I've heard that these 80's era II series Fenders can be some quality finds. How much do they usually go for on ebay or pawn shop? Are they worth seeking out to find these over a 90s' DRRI?

Hello everyone, i played with my band yesterday, (we play metal) and i had an discussion with the other guitar player about guitar tone.

On the Mark IV model, and possibly on others as well, when did MB switch from the more rugged tolex/plastic corners to the smoother tolex/leather corners?
