Hey Cato. THe Blues Junior is a Texas Red Special Edition. difference is it as a Celestion Vintage 30 instead of the jensen speaker design you get in the black one. I'de say more bottom and mid-range with this one. i just LOVE it.

Ok..the strats, BLack one is my pride. 87 hand made American Strat with Nitro Finish. just an amazing strat. The White one, i sold last month, was a 93 american strat. the tele..now, that's a Custom made for me by a Luthier in Alberta Canada. it's just an insane guitar, mohagany body, spatle maple top, Birdeye maple neck with early 50's style custom wound pups. Incredbile Tone with slightly more bass then the average Tele thanks to the mohagany body.

Dude...nice Guitars!

But you gotta try something...

Callaham Vintage Styled "CG" Saddles for American Standard Bridge.



If you look closely, the Lefty Candy Apple Red Strat in my collection has these, and I used the black screws, springs and the black hieght adjustment allen wrench screws for a nice look...

But the improvement or change in tone is dramatic. The saddles address a common complaint with late model USA Stratocasters, which is usually described as being too thin and nasally in the bridge position, etc...

Anyway, the Callaham saddles really warm the tone up without getting it muddy and they are absolutely worth experimenting with...


And welcome to the DLRARMY !!

I guess you really can't see them clearly in the pic I posted...

I'll take a couple close ups and post them...

[ELVIS]

Is that your Frankenstrat ??

How do you like that MXR GT-OD? I've been curious to check one out.

[al3d]

Elvis...yes, that's mine. it's a hobby of mine actually..

indeedido, the MXR GT-OD is a REALY good OD. one of the best i've heard. it's for sale if you want one..ahah. i have 3 OD..no point keeping 3. the MXR was part of a "kit" when i bought the BLues Junior..i tried it and never used it after that.
