Cool Guitar
I love this guitar! I have heard some mixed reviews of it in the past when it comes to tuning issues, but I cant complain. I really like the hard-tail bridge and the Seymour Duncan Invader, as well as the basic simplicity of it.

What Else
I have a staggered pickup in mine. Made from swamp ash, very light. A bit different from other tele's, doesn't really "Twang" much.

old 50s teles really run the gamut from gentle twang to almost les paul jr type sounds... it was really the early stagger pickups in the late 50s teles that brought the twang in a serious way.... all of those old fender pickup variations are killer... I have a broadcaster style flat pole that's hot and thick in one of my teles and the other one has a really underwound early stagger that twangs and chimes really well in that alder body... the alder, steel saddle and staggered bridge pickup combo brings maximu country twang.... the early specs are definitely rounder and sound more "rock"

The new "Blink-182" sound.
Tom Always uses these in his signature/ES-333 guitars. It comes stock in the Gibson and Epiphone Tom Delonge signature guitars. There is a rig rundown on YouTube where Toms's guitar tech says what he uses.
The Gibson Dirty Fingers humbucker is something different. They have immensely high output and have amazing clarity. They tend to be very loud but they are wax-potted to reduce the amount of feedback obtained by high gain or high amounts of output. this is especially handy if they are in a hollow body guitar which tend to get much more microphonic feedback.

amazing clarity are not 2 words I would combine to describe the dirty fingers, but informative review anyway
So I always wondered if these pickup were ether hand wound, machine wound , scatter wound or over wound coils etc... ?

Great effects, a little old but works great.
If you think of a sound or hear a sound you can make it on this.

Love this guitar. Decent weight, like the 70's start neck.
The stock pickups sound awesome, however I put a Seymour Duncan JB SH-4 in mine.

Sounds great. I have a 1996 model. Top dollar.
I have a Seymour Duncan JB SH-4 in mine rather than the single coil

Love the sound of this pedal
Is a great pedal for a bit of drive. Are somewhat expensive but are a good bit of gear.

I keep getting tempted by these to add some mean to my ac30s when I can't run them at 10

I think this is an amazing pedal and should be on all pedal boards.
These pedal can be pricy but is well worth it.
