The studio 900 rips! I just snagged a used one from gc last week. I was planning on returning as I just wanted to try it out but I might need to keep it around and sell some shit!
That lester is a beauty. I love the unique grain on the back. My concern would also be the frets. The shorties on my AJ Silverburst drive me nuts, I just can’t dig into bends on it like my other lps. A real shame they switched to these low frets.
I played one of those new olive dark studios at...
Ha! Quite a coincidence. I went to guitar center yesterday and saw this sweet black Martin tucked away between some entry level gear. Picked it up and couldn’t stop playing it. Guitar felt great and the back of the neck was really cool looking. Been on my mind since.
Could be a really cool rig. I had a 3203 for a long time. I don’t know much about the Friedman IR line but if you could connect it to the 3203 fx loop bypassing the 3203 solid state preamp, you’d have a full tube setup! I bet it would sound killer.
It’s been a while and I no longer have the amp but I used the Tonefreak Naked OD which paired perfectly with it. I bet the MXR fat sugar would also pair well.
I have 3 of them lol, the original, dinosaur and orca. Call me crazy but I hear a subtle difference between them. I gravitate to the dinosaur version.
…and go ahead and flame me but the purple Hammett wah is also killer sounding!
