The toanez were pretty good, but how much is the pickup and how much the rest?

I like his wordlessness. A good lesson to all those that blather on and on in youtube vids.

Horrible vibrato!

The Stratty twang you hear is the Filter'Trons.  It's a Les Paul into a Marshall style amp, they don't usually sound like that!!!

Great stuff.

The Tronebuckers seem to have fuller/fatter sound than the TV Classics. Or is that just the difference in amps?

Great sounding ams though.
