Would you prefer a mass produced guitar (like a PRS) or a guitar built like you want it by a small builder (Like PRS used to be)?

Tone Tubbies?
I am about to purchase a Crate/Ampeg V1512 Combo and a ceramic tone tubby hemp cone speaker is offered as an upgrade. How much will this improve the tone of the amp particularly in warming up the clean tone? I have been offered the amp at such a discounted price (old friends with the dealer) that it is cheaper with the upgrade than it would have been without it normally. I know nothing about speakers but these seem to have a pretty large fan base.

First review of my Vox AC30 Custom Classic
Alright...this will be installment one of the Vox AC30 Custom Classicd. This won't be as in depth as installments two and three (to follow after I've had more than a few days to mess with it...probably at the 2 and 3 week periods)Well I hooked my tube screamer up to it for the first time this morning and let me tell you it was the most transparent beautiful overdrive I've ever heard. It almost brought a tear to my eye how perfect this sound is for me. my favorite tone thus far is blending the normal and top boost channels together, both low volume, cranking the master, ..normal volume on quot;brilliancequot; and the top boost channel on quot;standardquot;. Very glassy pristine clean tone, EVEN WITH THE LES PAUL!! With my Les Paul, there was NO true clean tone on my mesa/boogie. The pickups (which are only Duncan 59's, not high output pickups) pushed it into overdrive so easy. This one stays quite clean even when strumming hard which is something I missed about my Les Paul through the Mesa/Boogie, the clean tone. I switched to a pretty medium reverb (by Fender standards) and a pretty deep tremolo, and switched the tube screamer on and I swear I heard God talk amongst the swirling wonderful reverbating beauty of that overdriven tone So far I'm really loving it and the fact that the reverb and tremolo are footswitchable make me very happy. Add to that the fact that the cable for the footswitch is freakin 20'!! I'm so tired of little 10' footswitch chords...I unraveled this thing and fell in love with the footswitch before I even plugged it in..I knew I would be able to get a bit further from my amp than I normally do (not that I will, but I could!)

Michael Kelly guitar vs LP
I have a Michael Kelly Patriot Q that I cant say enough great things about.. It plays like a dream, sustains forever, sounds fantastic and was very reasonably priced. I have never got to play the Kelly thru my main amp rig (peavy Ultra plus and carvin cab) and have been wondering how it would sound and how it would compare to my LP? Well, today, I got to do a back to back comparo.. OMG!!!! The Kelly sounded amazing!!! Almost all the same full chunky sound but with less mud. I thought the LP would be brighter because of the thicker maple cap, but to my suprise, the Patriot has a more cutting tone.. Even more of a suprise is the tone I was getting from neck pups.. Im a tinkerer and change pups in everything. I hadnt had the time or money to change the neck pup in the Michael Kelly. But I was getting some of the sweetest and most musical tones out of it. Im just blown away!! I wanted to get a couple more LPs to have a variety of pup combos, but not anymore.. Ill save a pile of money and get a couple more Patriots! Plus, the patriot has a bigger fretwire which I like too.. Im amazed and Im stoked!!!

Well, I caved in... new amp in the arsenal ; )
I'm going into the studio tomorrow and I needed a good amp to record with (aka, not the Vibrolux Reverb). Ever since I played a Crate V32 Palomino, I've been thinking about how great it sounded for the cash. I want an amp to get me by until the Fargen comes back home all repaired. I was also looking for an amp that would be relatively cheap and all around very good sounding (that was the difficult part). I talked to my singer / fellow guitar player and he told me that if I ever wanted to sell the Crate that he would buy it off of me (I was initially trying to find a quality amp for him, never imagined I'd actually pony up the cash for another amp).

DiMarzio Evolution Update
I put the Evo. in my strat yesterday, and I must say that I'm not impressed at all. It is very bright and it sounds harsh to me. I tried it with a 250 pot to see if that would help, and it did a bit, but I still can't get a good sound out of it.
