Hey all,
I just bought my first LP. It's named Guitar of the Week... it's a classic w/ a mahogany top. This guitar also has cream binding around the headstock.
Another note. I'm having issues w/ the guitar on gigs. With my previous guitar (Matt Guitar Murphy Cort) I would dig in w/ some screaming bends and it would SCREAM! Note I'm using the Seymour Duncan Twin Tube Classic for my overdrive tones. So... When I'm soloing I go for that screaming bend and my new LP isn't delivering. It seems to me like there is some serious compression going on when I really want to dig in. I'm wondering if this is a pickup issue. Maybe the heights are off or the action/truss rod are not in an ideal place. Can someone tell me ideal pickup heights for PAF pickups and getting some screaming sustaining tones?
