Joe. Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I don't check this forum much. Are you a Chappers fan? Oh god yes I am I watch his YouTube regurlarly. I don't think I'll ever own one of his guitars purely because I'm a huge Gibson and Les Paul fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Hard Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Fender Starcaster Strat, which is modified to accommodate an angled humbucker Fleabass. Hoping to get a new bass this summer. Maybe I should be looking at guitars though, because the one I have now is very shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slydren Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I have an Ibanez RG120 that I repainted and put Guitarheads Hexbuckers in, a stock Dean Vendetta but I'm gonna put an Invader and a L500XL in, a custom made ESP (my first guitar), and an Ariana acoustic.

I don't think I'll ever own one of his guitars purely because I'm a huge Gibson and Les Paul fan Gibsons are fantastic, I have to say that. Chapman guitars are also amazing. They're geared to different players though. Gibsons are classic, and you're really paying for an amazing USA-made instrument. Chapman on the other hand has some really fantastic Korean-made axes that are affordable. I've been able to try most of the Chapman range, and they're incredible. They're also really geared towards shredders too. I would probably get the ML-1 Bea if it had a tone knob. I love everything about it except for that. I use the tone knob quite a bit in my playing, so it would suck not having that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any guitar by Vintage is a good second guitar, IMO the best Gisbon copies out there (other than Epiohone obviously) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shtrudel Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Got myself a 2014 Squier Precision - Matt Freeman signature. Spoiler Plugged directly into my Fender Rumble 60w (of the old models, which only has a speaker and a basic EQ), it sounds rather dry. HOWEVER, plugging it into my Zoom G2.1u first (yes, it's a multi-effect for ELECTRIC guitars), maxing the compressor, adding the slightest gain possible and messing around with the EQ, I get a killer tone from that. I also have a Gibson SG Special Faded, the very low-end of the Gibson brand. I don't touch it as often since I'm mainly a bass player. (Fun fact: It's not that I play bass because I don't qualify as a guitarist, it's that everyone around me play guitar because they don't qualify as bassists, I'm not even kidding) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPbilliejr Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I own: 2018 Gibson BJA Les Paul Junior Maraschino Cherry 2012 Gibson BJA Les Paul Junior Doublecut (SD Antiquity P90) 2006 Gibson BJA Les Paul Junior Sunburst (Lollar P90) Tommy Thayer Epiphone Les Paul White Lightning 2000s Copley Acoustic 2004/7 Humbucker Fender Stratocaster (SD SH-4 JB) BJ Guitars Strat Copy (L500xl) Marshall DSL40c Vox AC4tv8 On 10/9/2018 at 1:07 PM, Joe. said: What’s the BJA Signature like? I’ve not seen any in a shop Honestly it's probably the best of the three Les Paul Juniors BJ has done with Gibson. The neck is closer to a 59 profile than a standard slim taper (may vary due to manufacturing). The weights of these are all over the place, mine is 6.8 lbs but I've seen examples of almost 9 lbs. The case is designed better despite losing the beloved leopard print and lock combination latch from gen1/2. The padding is thicker, the supports are in the correct areas, bigger cavity for storage. The top vinyl is not the easy to knick/damage material from past either. The electronics is really where this one shines. The pots turn so nicely compared to the rocks they used to put on the USA Gibsons. The 57 classic sounds just like a PAF should. It reacts to exactly how you're hitting the string(s). The H90s from the originals were just one trick ponies that were too hot to be versatile. The wiring I think isn't to standard 50s roll off, but swap the capacitor and/or change the wiring to that and there's not much else to tweak. The only changes I'm doing are strap locks, Knob Pointers, and maybe white bell knobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is silly, but it is a humbucker fender strat, that's the best description for it. It is not an hsh, hss, sss, it has one humbucker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad its a great guitar, I just couldn't entertain owning it as that sort of price tag would make any guitar my one and only, and it just doesn't seem versatile enough with one pickup, is there routing for a neck pickup?

There is not, it is a regular Junior body with a humbucker route in the bridge only. Honestly if you're looking for that, the 2010s-2012 les paul special is what would suit your needs.
