Same goes for a plain traditonal solid state or tube amp. There are many digital amp modelers with tons of good effects nowadays. But i always find myself tweaking with them and not really getting any playing done. Through the years i find that the more gears i have , the less creative i become. Too much options leaves you thinking and trying to get the optimal tone that will never satisfy you. Simplicity has its advantage.

Oh yes...been there also, but with one of those All-In-One multi effects pedals. Spend most of my time just endlessly "experimenting' but really not getting anything useful done...it just had to go. Straight into a decent valve amp sounds so much more vibrant - but acknowledging that we need a little help here and there, I went for individual pedals (analoguewhere possible). However, I found myself gradually drifting back into the badlands of over-complexity, so I recently stripped my pedal board right back to the basic necessities - now I am back to playing and really exploring what my guitars and amp can really do. It's fun.

I've been speaking Spanish daily for 30 years now, since I moved to Mexico. I still have an accent. It's not a question of pronunciation or articulation, it's more a question of rhythm. I still use the same rhythm in my sentences as in French, my native language. You can change instruments, but your hands still "pronounce" the phrases in the same way. I think what's important here is how you feel. Does it feel good ? Oh yeah ! Grab it, period.

I agree with you 100%. I started with a Strat with 3 single coil pickups. Over time, I modded in many different ways. It now has one Humbucker in the Bridge location, and that has been liberating. I ride both the Volume and Tone Pots. 😎 The Bridge is the most harmonically rich location for a Pickup, as far as overtones go, and that provides with the widest options in tone/timbre. Some Pickup Switches can bleed the sound of one Pickup into another, causing some degree of "Phasing" between the Pickups. This can be easily tested by setting the Pickup Selector to one Pickup, and tapping on the pole pieces of the other Pickup with a metal paperclip. If you hear the tapping from the pickup, it's bleeding sound. Another thing to consider is if you use a Modeler, having multiple Pickups can be detrimental because you typically dial in the perfect Preset on a particular Pickup, and switching to a different can compromise that tone.

A Tele with only the bridge pup is quite a tone machine when you trick out the wiring. I've seen them with 1meg ohm pots for Volume, no-load pots on the Tone and Varitone cap switch on the three way. It's amazing what you can squeeze out of that thing into a tube amp but I really had to ride the tone and volume controls. Wanted one every since I played that guitar.

An anecdote I found on the net regarding the meaning of TV yellow. Not the meaning that we all know, but actually that it was to be a response to Fender Telecaster. That being said there is (for me) something similar between a tele and a Les Paul Junior or Special. They are basic electric guitars as opposed to Strats or 335 or Les Paul Standards. That being said I do enjoy your videos. Beside being an incredible player, you show some passion and know what you are talking about.

The biggest thing that playing a single pickup guitar for a while taught me was that guitars with multiple of the same style of pickup is more for speed and convenience than actually getting more sounds. You can make the bridge pickup sound like the neck pickup by rolling back volume and tone, but it's quicker to just slap the switch. That made me prioritize a humbucker/P90 guitar over two humbuckers or two P90s.

Late 1950s Juniors forever. My 1st choice when i turned professional in 1966. Everyone who sold a cherry double cut said it belonged to Peter Green in those days.... haa.....also bought a Junior TV for £38 and it was like brand new...... a 59 Special (Steve Marriot's Pink one, i gave him the Burst Tele he used on Ogdens Nut for it) i converted it to single volume, single tone. Absolutely right Chris everything you said about the way you play a single pu., combine that with the unique way you must play in a 3 piece group....guitar heaven. Then in 1970 swapped a mk2 Jag for a 1955 GoldTop (ex Barney Kessel) but hardly ever used it. Sadly just sold it after 54 years.✌️🇬🇧 8:59

It's scary how good that guitar is, especially with the electrics swapped for better stuff, a Faber bridge and a Lollar Dogear. All in all, i have under 750£ in that guitar 😍

A interesting mod for those who like to color the tone with the volume control is a reverse treble bleed with a low value cap wired to the opposite lugs as a treble bleed. You get some really interesting tones that way by slightly backing off the volume. Personally I hate treble bleed circuits as they do the opposite of what I want to hear backing the guitar down. Adding a cap that way is similar to the capacitance of a long cable.

Coincidence is a funny thing, I myself bought an SG Jr about 4 months or so ago and it's become my main guitar, I've noticed a huge improvement in my playing. It definitely pushed me to experiment with right hand positioning and actually utilising my tone and volume knobs. I love the single pickup vibe so much I converted my Mexi Tele into an Esquire. If I could do it to my Strat I would too (but I've got your Radioshop set in there and I love them too much...).

First off, gorgeous playing as usual, and just a great sounding guitar. T'be honest, to me the best sounding rock and blues guitars I've heard by far have been the Les Paul Juniors and the early Fender Esquires with the Broadcaster bridge pickups. However, it does seem to me that people are hesitant to approach the problem of making these guitars something that can be tuned. It would be interesting to see you do a video on an Esquire with a traditional bridge versus having it with a Mastery bridge which allows you to keep it in tune with modern round wound strings (unwound G, of course). And then it might even be even _more_ interesting to see you do a demonstration of a Les Paul Junior with a traditional bridge versus having it with a Hipshot BabyGrand bridge which should keep it in tune no matter what strings you use. Maybe these bridges don't sound as good. Maybe that's why they're not used as much as I would think they'd be. Who knows? If people heard these things next to each other then they could make up their minds for themselves.
