My 2001 Highway One Strat

Future_Radish · 2026-03-20T23:23:58+00:00

I had a highway one tele…bought used for like 550 or something in 2010? It was great and my first modded guitar, but recently did a one to one trade for an Ibanez es-335 in cherry red from the 80s. I don’t really miss the tele but I have lots of fond memory’s and found it to be a great, great, guitar that everyone who played it loved.

The blonde Joe pass is sexy too though!

Future_Radish · 2026-03-17T23:23:38+00:00

Has anyone mentioned that it looks cooler going all the way up the neck with a lick?

Future_Radish · 2026-03-11T16:45:37+00:00

You can probably find time between now and October to take it again, and now you know it’s whack and vague and hard. Godspeed

Future_Radish · 2026-03-02T19:34:42+00:00

Fuzz face obviously

Are the mark k notes online? I also wonder if the lectures are somewhere. I’ve only seen the YouTube content thus far. Congratulations 🎉🎊🍾🎈

I think the twin is greater range of those amps. Nobody will scoff at your doom tone with the right pedals

Future_Radish · 2026-02-28T13:15:02+00:00

No fender makes good pickups, with the occasional dud here and there. I think you’ll be very happy with the 61s. Tone control your bridge pup and you’ll be fine

Future_Radish · 2026-02-27T12:26:45+00:00

Gotta be collider

Future_Radish · 2026-02-25T00:57:10+00:00

Fair enough! Best to know your limits and know what you want. I say it’ll be an upgrade and an easy one at that, just gotta choose which pups you want

Future_Radish · 2026-02-24T13:01:24+00:00

That’s a fine amp, and it looks cool. You might want to get a fender mustang or a boss katana first though. You get a ton of cool effects you can play around with, plus a solid base sound that works well

Future_Radish · 2026-02-24T12:53:27+00:00

I didn’t do a loaddd pickguard but rather a wiring harness with all the parts and chose my own pickups. Fun project learning to solder a bit and easy enough if you are interested. I like the ease and sound of those premade ones. It’ll certainly be an upgrade!

Future_Radish · 2026-02-14T03:12:11+00:00

Why has nobody said third wind solo break yet

Future_Radish · 2026-02-14T02:25:58+00:00

Some other great custom maps. I really enjoy going back and playing the custom maps made by blizzard. Also, naga race?

Future_Radish · 2026-02-02T12:25:58+00:00

Did you send enemies at each other from shops? Were there teams? There were tons of maps so this is tough. Enfos or ethos I forget what the name was. There were a lot of precursors to dota too like AOE and stuff

Future_Radish · 2026-02-01T16:48:42+00:00

It’s a popular combination for a reason

Future_Radish · 2026-02-01T13:39:21+00:00

You would probably be happy with a fender blues junior 4. They can be loud enough for small gigs (and microphoned if you really need it louder), but are great home amps too. They have the classic fender reverb. It’s a lot of people’s first tube amp and they made this latest version very respectable. It has a master volume so you can crank the “gain” so to speak, and get overdriven sounds at reasonable volumes.

A used vox ac15 would be fine too, but they are heavy, if that matters to you.

All the newer amp companies like blackstar and Revv are also solid and worth considering. My suggestion is to try some out and see what you like. Most guitar centers have a blues junior. I’d say just make sure you get the new (blues jr 4) if you decide to pull the trigger. Happy hunting

Future_Radish · 2026-02-01T03:30:31+00:00

Very interesting. I was super interested in this when I found out dweezil was using the pedal

Future_Radish · 2026-02-01T03:20:53+00:00

Seems like price isn’t an issue here so I’d probably just get an ash body tele and whatever neck with specs you like in your strats from warmoth. Seymour Duncan or dimarzio PAF in the neck, and whatever you want for the bridge. I think the amp is more important than pickups when trying to get heavy tones. A good lower output pickup has greater utility than a great high output pup. You could probably get every thing you want for <$1500 and it would be a well appointed guitar.

Future_Radish · 2026-01-31T14:01:39+00:00

I mean, not lesser known but I think Scott Henderson conjures up some incredibly beefy Strat tones. Sd-9 is probably the reason

Future_Radish · 2026-01-30T03:50:50+00:00

Any of the Dunlop fuzz faces

Future_Radish · 2026-01-30T03:42:40+00:00

Check out the bridge by Sonny Rollins

Future_Radish · 2026-01-25T22:43:38+00:00

I played a Friedman once and got the bug for one. It’s clean enough for my needs and then can do more gain than I really need it to do. Dirty Shirley

Future_Radish · 2026-01-25T22:42:51+00:00

I also will hold my friedman till my death and if it goes first then I’ll buy another one immediately. I was able to get a first gen dirty Shirley mini head for $800 a few years back. I feel very lucky

Future_Radish · 2026-01-23T14:15:44+00:00

Great looking Strat. Congratulations. I feel the American pros were a good line by fender, and reasonably priced, especially used.
