I'd honestly love to learn a "real" instrument... like clarinetplayer. I guess using guitar tabs makes me feel like I'm "cheating".Originally Posted by Bandwagonesque
What's funny about GS's gear is that almost everybody I know who plays a Ric has a Tele as a back-up. Both are really good at getting that twangy, jangly sound. I think Rics can be very tempermental sometimes, and supposedly a pain *********** when they need restringing thanks to the R tail piece... Teles make a solid backup.
Rics are cool but they can be very limited. I love their sound, and if you want, you can take the attenuators off the pickups and they'll really, really scream. One of the Rics I want most is a 650F, with that beautiful wood and maple neck. They also have mini humbuckers, so it's a different ball game altogether.
