First time..

What's Hot
JetfireJetfire Frets: 1687
So my back up guitar is in having a set up fret dress etc and I mistakenly assumed I had a spare B string for my main gigging strat guitar which I didnt. Bugger. So fridays guitars coulsnt have been more mismatched in my Ibanez prestige with dual high output pick ups and my Fender Tele with single coils. I think it was 7th song in to our 25 song set and my B string goes. So time to whip out the Tele I have had since 1992 and never gigged live. 

Now I want to gig with nothing but teles and single coils.....

    They're also first class at keeping a baying mob on the defensive.

    B string
    Is that something in the region of 011-014 for the second string or a humungous sixth string for down-tuned cookie monster filth?
    Be seeing you.

    Normally, at this point, I would behave like Auntie Wainwright from Last Of The Summer Wine and coerce you into buying something. ;)
    Be seeing you.

  • Personally I'd have struggled through on 5 strings than play a tele.  ;)

    A good Tele on the edge of breakup with some guitar volume in reserve is a vibrant and versatile thing. Thing is the sound is so common that you hear it all the time and dismiss it - big mistake.
