I'm looking for less raw sound of Stevie Ray and the sweet sustain of clapton which is better Pearly Gates or 59' or a combo of both in my les paul standard.

dimarzio chopper and dimarzio megadrive.

... to put a seymour duncan duckbucker and a hotrail in a humbucker frame,
this is an idea of my brother, and yes it's tempting ...

What do you guys think of the 496R and 500T?

Hey. I have an EPI SG G-400 that I want to toss a new bridge humbucker in. It is made of a couple very resonant pieces of Mahogany - much more lively than most Gibson's I've played lately. How would a C5/'59 hybrid sound in this guitar? I'm looking for classic marshall rock tones, ranging from AC/DC to Fair Warning era Van Halen. Is this a yes or no? THanks guys.

just hunting for my next guitar purchase when i came across these two. man, i'm in love with that strat!! anyone have $10,500 they can loan me for the strat LOL. yup, they are $10,500 each...CRAZY!

OK...

One of my students that I teach guitar to just had his parents buy him a low cost strat. I played Mayall's 70th Bday party and he fell in love with Buddy Whittington's tone. I personally own a Clapton Strat and absolutely love it but thats my only experience with strats... I've never even played another one. What pup suggestion would you guys suggest to help my student get a great blues tone like Buddy Whittington's tone?

These are for my son's Epi Les Paul, he just busted a peg and they were pretty cheap tuners anyway. What should he get? Thanks.

I know Kim used a Guild guitar and chris used les pauls alot live (and ben was known to use some mosrite-looking basses sometimes). But, I'm wondering if anyone could let me know what kind of amps and stuff they used.
