Raymond - That was the one I tested. Almost bought it on the spot too. Slept on it and decided I want this color.

Re 335:  Feed the GAS!

cool. when i tested that one i said mahina yun neck pickup because may plastic cover pa kaso ayaw naman nila patanggal. Sana pagbalik ko meron ng ganitong color.

your GAS=

got to jam with the staff at lazer this evening. I think it was a one and a half hour jam. and I picked up the GB avion 3, Kuya Allan used a nice sunburst GB Formula, and Kuya Richard used a GB Fairline. what a freakin' awesome jam. we went from some funky blues, some reggae mixed with a bit of blues soloing, some funk, some satirical stuff. overall a great jam.
GB's are really great sounding guitars. can't believe how awesome the AV-3, Formula and Fairlane sounded.

Sir Deltaslim, a few months back or maybe a year ago, I read an article on Yahoo! Philippines about an interview with a Pinoy blues player andthere was  also a link of his youtube page, I watched his Derek Trucks covers and it was awesome  I forgot his name, but when I saw your username (Deltaslim), it kinda sounded familiar. so was that guitar player, by any chance, you?

Oh, you must be talking about this guy: youtube.com/deltaslim.

Not to be confused with "mr.deltaslim" a newbie here on philmusic.

Uy! Anjan na pala. Congrats. Will read your initial post and listen to the clips after I get back from the mall.

  WOW. Sir deltaslim, you're the man!!!
I wish I could find that yahoo article. Damn. If I were in front of you right now, I'd probably be on both knees 
the videos with you playing slide was so cool.

dude great job on your FA2!  just a question, does the neck pickup groove have a provision for a humbucker?

[AnodBiomech]

^^ when i change the stock 5-way selector switch (meron kasi syang mid pickup) to 3-way, ang naging prob ko is yung wiring (wala talaga ako gaanong alam sa wiring nung sa selector switch kung san ko isasalpak yung pang neck pickup & bridsge pickup ) ... bago ko inalis yung hinang ng 5-way tinandaan ko na lang kung saang paa ba, ang malaking prob is kung pano pag nasa mid position yung selector (combining bridge & neck)

although bihirang bihira ako mag neck position sa tugtugan, ang ginawa ko na lang is jumper the mid position & the neck position is the same (neck pickup only)

oh my bad, but i don't know how to fix

[maxi_musikero]

pero tatanggap ba siya ng humbucker sa neck position?

[AnodBiomech]

what you mean tatanggap? di ko ma gets bosing

[maxi_musikero]

what you mean tatanggap? di ko ma gets bosing

i mean yung butas sa neck pickup position, kasya ang humbucker?  sorry hindi din ako masyadong marunong magtanong. 

[AnodBiomech]

ah hehehe hindi bro, single coil size ... humbucker in a single-coil size pwede rin

[fusionenigma]

Here's a quick soundclip of the guitar straight into a Fender Silverface Princeton Reverb. (Note: Strings are stock 9s, so it's a little brighter and slinkier than I usually like. BTW, Clip was recorded w/ iPhone voice memo app so it actually sounds better in person/live. It also sounded better w/ ZT Lunchbox ).
