SouthpawGuy Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Yes, but for how long....... Order please gentlemen !
brentrocks Posted October 3, 2009 Author Posted October 3, 2009 Yes, but for how long....... ..in all seriousness, if you ever see me sell: 1. the Gary Moore 2. the H 357 3. or the H 150 Custom.... then things are REALLY BAD!
pro-fusion Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 Brent, that is one of the most interesting guitars I've ever seen. I don't think I'd have any use for it, but it certainly draws attention.
brentrocks Posted October 4, 2009 Author Posted October 4, 2009 Brent, that is one of the most interesting guitars I've ever seen. I don't think I'd have any use for it, but it certainly draws attention. thanks Chris!! I spent some more time with it this morning. This guitar clean is thin toned...it is a really cool sound (very stratty/tele-ish). It fattens up quite a bit when it is gained up! the action is perfect...the tone is unique (for a Heritage) and the look is priceless. I really like it alot!!
rjsanders Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 friend of mine hates S-style guitars. hates the look. scorns the ergonomics. doesn't particularly care for the sound. but he's a Chapin freak. so, he had Bill build him one anyway. wonderful guitar. eventually, tho, he sent it back for a mod: 3 lipstck pickups (Mare or Lollar, i forget) with the wacky/infinitely variable Chapin wiring - awesome sounds. i would love to hear that Custom
brentrocks Posted October 4, 2009 Author Posted October 4, 2009 i will try to do a small demo vid later
rjsanders Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 i will try to do a small demo vid later xlnt! request to include clean tones, too... (& i loved my R-55 - what kind of speaker's in it?)
brentrocks Posted October 4, 2009 Author Posted October 4, 2009 xlnt! request to include clean tones, too...(& i loved my R-55 - what kind of speaker's in it?) i think its a Celestion?
rjsanders Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 i think its a Celestion? IIRC they came stock w/a custom Eminence, but a Celestion was an upgrade. a GT-75 or -85 or something. i even tried an EVM-12L in mine and it was great! - but it added about 20lbs to it...the lil amp responded really well to speaker changes & i liked 'em all...
rjsanders Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 xlnt, Brent. very unique and appealing tones. for compare, here's my friend's w/pic & clip linked: http://www.thegearpage.net/board/showthrea...ick#post3267009 were you using ch1 or ch2? amp tone settings? guitar tone knobs full on?

FredZepp Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 Cool. Thanks for the vid.. I do think that this would do a great job on some jangly/ alt. rock kind of stuff. REM or T Petty . or any Rickenbacker type sounds. I do hope that you keep that guitar forever, because it's ultra cool... but if not.. you've got my number
shook494 Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 That thing sounds awesome!! Very cool sounds coming out of the pups. Thanks for the video.
tulk1 Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 Brent, that is one cool guitar. If it just had a different headstock!! With the youtube compression it's tough to hear much difference in the distortion/od tones. But those cleans really came thru, giving a very good example of what that guitar is capable of doing. What a very strange and exciting beast that guitar must be. With those single coils you're going to need to learn a couple country licks! Bet it'd sound amazing! doing some Dwight or Alan.
rjsanders Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 jus' guessin' - set tone knobs in Ch 2 to bass 2 mids 8 treble 4-5 and go to neck p'up: i'll bet you get jazz sounds, too! :glasses10:d
big bob Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 were not worthy, were not worthy thats one rocking little guitar, nice find!!

tulk1 Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 thats where i draw the line...NO COUNTRY! Now now, youngster. Keep an open mind. Some of the greatest guitar players on this planet have chosen country music to express themselves. It ain't all pickup trucks and d i v o r c e.

brentrocks Posted October 6, 2009 Author Posted October 6, 2009 yeahman - imaginate with lipstickery nice use of volume swells!!!
rjsanders Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 nice use of volume swells!!! a reg'lar maestro. on one of his albums i have he's depicted w/a black beauty. woulda loved to hear this tune on *that* (tho the vol knob was likely an issue)
SouthpawGuy Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Go Brent go ! The clean tones are very "stratty", and it looks very different indeed.
