This is done with my '89 Gibson Les Paul Special which has a set of BK P-types. Played through a Diezel Einstein having a Lexicon MX200 in the loop.

This combination of Guitar, Pickups and Amp just sings!

It's more heavily inspired by "Django" but not 100% on the original, who could play it properly like Joey anyways

I didn't like it much, as P-types are so noisy... but it's got a damn good cut tone on the bridge and woman tone on the neck.
It's got locking tuners and a Schaller Roller type bridge now, stays in tune very nicely...

Your guitar looks so nice, and it sounds great as well. For my next guitar, I think I'll be choosing between either one of these, a tele or an SG.. hard decision :P

btw, what strap is that? It looks like it could be nice and comfy, I'm still using those cheap Ernie Ball polyweb ones :oops:

Yeah, thanks ... I also think it looks very nice, much better than nowadays' "faded" look. SG might be cool, you could put a humbucker sized P91 in the neck position.
The strap is just some leather, has no label. I have a very nice Heritage strap which I got for free when I bought the Shiva (I got that Heritage strap, the Crunch Box and a nice speaker lead with the Shiva).
Straps are a science on their own, especially on those 'big junk of mahogany' guitars like the special is.

Would you guys say that this sounds in any way "cold" as Diezels are said to be?

38thBeatle · « **Reply #11 on:** June 02, 2007, 08:57:31 AM »

I certainly wouldn't have said it sounded cold no.

Seriously smokin' tone --- hope to sound 1/7th as good myself someday!

Dude that's spot on. There is one lovely ass tone!

Stunning tone there, sounded full and warm, really well defined too. Just listened to the original and your playing is pretty spot on there Hunter. Awesome stuff.
