Bookmark or Share- I don't wanna be in a band anymore! | Telecaster Guitar ForumI was ganged up on by two members the other day. They angrily DEMAND that I stop playing this Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf crap that NOBODY knows, and NOBODY wants to hear (but me) and play more Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and crowd pleaser stuff. The bassist want's to do a rap tune. They ALL want to include Parliament/Funkadelic in the repertoire.
- Gibson GA-40 (or Clone) vs Fender Tremolux 5E9 (or Clone)?Tonewise, not really the same. The later GA40s have some kind of dark magic going on, a denser, hotter sound somehow than the Fender. Neither one is better; they're just different. The Fender would certainly have the better tremolo, if that's the deciding point for you. A friend of mine has the Trem de la Trem.
- What's your favorite blues record? | Page 5 - Telecaster Guitar ForumWhen I turned 16 in 1985 my dad gave me his Chevette which had a cassette player. On my first day out I drove my punk rock/metal buddies to East Town Mall in Madison WI. I found Muddy Waters' Hard Again in a cassette cutout bin for fifty cents. That was a game changer and is has remained in regular rotation to this day.
- Slide material: Brass, Glass, or Chrome? - Telecaster Guitar ForumNashville, TN. homesick345 said: glass is maybe warmer, chrome maybe brighter. I like both, brass is in-between and sounds great.

- What's your favorite blues record? | Telecaster Guitar ForumAnd before there was a thing called Delmark there was the mighty fountainhead called Chess from which came the genius of Muddy Waters, Little Walter, Sonny Boy, Howlin Wolf, Otis Rush and so many more. and so on & so forth back to WC Handy and Geechee Wiley. A long way of saying I don't have one favorite or even 20 favorites.
