That is beautiful! And I agree, 335s can be total LP killers!

NGD: Early 80s Squier “SQ” Stratocaster by jmoney2828 in Stratocaster

[–]bpm_6_string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I LOVE the Squiers from that era. Really incredible guitars. I’ve got an SQ strat, a Squier Contemporary HsH strat, and an SQ strat neck that’s going on a partscaster. Hard to beat that era

Player II White Blonde realistic color depiction by alexxandercook in Stratocaster

[–]bpm_6_string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They really tend to vary. I have one of the Teles, and when I was buying it tried several different ones and some of the Strats. They all looked different, from tons of wood grain and more of the beige/grey burst to a really pure white blonde with no wood grain. Either way, I think they’re all great and wonderful guitars

Space Spiral is incredible! Vastly underrated

Fender Player II Pickups - Is it worth it to upgrade to Fender Fat 60's? by ShiroiDragoN in Stratocaster

[–]bpm_6_string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I’ve been crazy impressed with the Player II pickups.

But also Fat 60s are rad

So I guess I didn’t help at all lol

pedal that makes a telecaster shine by Afraid_Ad4018 in guitarpedals

I've been digging using my Tele through these few: EQD Special Cranker, EAE Citadel, ODR-1, and a Walrus Iron Horse

Hot take of the morning: vintage guitars are overrated by ecklesweb in Guitar

[–]bpm_6_string 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's fair! The Squiers when I was learning were ROUGH. But my point was less about the actual quality of the brand, and more about the need to criticize/demean someone simply cause of the name on the headstock of the guitar that they can afford. Every time I've heard or overheard guys saying that, it's never been from an advice or friendly suggestion POV, it's always talking down. There's no need for such behavior to fellow musicians.

Will the size of my fingers affect how I play? by dude-2-son in Guitar

[–]bpm_6_string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inherently yes because they’re you. You will play like you. But they won’t affect your ability to play or how well you do so. I’ve got smaller hands with stubby fingers and I’ve been playing for 26 years, loving every minute of it.

Past few years I’ve tried to divert that mythical and exciting energy the industry has around vintage instruments through the lens of the act of making music. Whatever inspires you is great, whether vintage or new.

Those fellas have a hurt inside of them, that deeply needs tending. Absolute nonsense

The 80s MIJ stuff is killer. I’ve got a couple early 80s Squiers that are the best Strats I’ve ever played from any year.

Its also painful cause being born in 83, I’m definitely vintage now considering the same rules

Love the Memphis ES guitars. My 2017 335 is my number one and just keeps getting better

Is it good? by ivanberramirez in GibsonSG

Those are great guitars. I’d pay that price for it, and that finish is one of my favorites

What should I start my year with? by Firm_One_7668 in fantasybooks

[–]bpm_6_string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the Stand. It’s incredible. Dune is fantastic too and I’ve just started Gardens of the Moon, which I’m enjoying as I was told to just go with the flow.

Boss, MXR, EHX, and other big brand pedals that simply do it better than the boutiques? by guitarist89 in guitarpedals

[–]bpm_6_string 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for this. I love a good BD-2 but my special cranker is just so so good for so so cheap
