prs guitars , uhm i really don't know why 

[lastikman]

GIBSON and les paul styles

[wonson3]

Every guitarist should like a Gibson Les Paul. If you dont like the looks, at least you should be liking how it plays and sound. It has its distinct tone IMHO.

I understand people seem to dislike this or that but please share out your thoughts why you'd be not "liking" it.

I also didn't like PRS the way it looks and all those hype. But after I played it for a few, I understand PRS. I like the weight, the feel and the tone.

I didn't like all Fender Strats. Now I have 56 custom shop.

I don't like FRs bridges and all the yada lalala and/but now I have one.

I used to like a Boss mt2 but I don't find the tones attractive and got a better ones. -fullbore metal

My point is this thread will be useless read if you don't give your reason why you don't like it. Unless you are banking up posts like what I'm trying to do right now.

umm.. NO

I'm starting to dislike floydrose bridges.  First of all tuning the darn thing sucks ass.  Second, if you're careless enough, you get to lose the small parts while replacing the string.  I've had my worst guitar nightmare 2 days ago with my newly bought floyded guitar.  Now I need to go to the machine shop and remove the nut (if that's what you call it) kasi naputol nung hinihigpitan ko yung string.  A big F.you floydrose!!

only happens with cheap floyd rose copies imho. the real thing doesn't do that. but yeah, it's a pain to tune if it's not properly set-up.  in my experience, original floyd rose, takeuchi and gotoh are really easy to tune. they are stable. same as the Ibanez zero trem. I really like that one.

yes, come to think of it ... the sound of a good Les Paul is impossible to hate.

if you love Slash's tone, yep... Les Paul. Jimmy Page? Les Paul

Eric Clapton, SRV and Hendrix? OK, not a Les Paul, but a good Les Paul can get really close to that territory.

OK, so you are one of those "modern guys" and you like bands that dont play slower than 180 bpm ... still, a good Les Paul can nail those Nile, Dream Theater, insert whatever modern band here cause i am too old to find any of those technical acts exciting.

Besides, with genres like that, it has a lot more to do with the amp than the guitar (they cover their sound with so much gain, what you have left is a guitar's response and whether its using a single coil or humbucker PUP)

now, the Les Paul isn't infallible, cause there are other things you could dislike about it:

1.) shape = its a "classic" shape
2.) neck = i prefer the strat neck too
3.) your very very unique taste in tone and music (you know, you are the type who hates stuff people like). it wont be a surprised you'd like the extreme fuzz pedals (i like them too, but i like the sound of a Les Paul as well).

same thing with good stratocasters.

I guess i am just a very mainstream guy, and every song ive liked that has a guitar in it has Les Pauls and/or Strats in it... i might also wanna sneak in a Tele.

i think some people hate them because they have not heard the good ones, or well, because of the stuff i mentioned.

funny though, i have not owned a good Les Paul ... i did own a very good Orville Firebird (it can sound like a Tele!).


-*-

and another +1 to the stuff about Floyd Roses ... those stuff we complain about only happen to the bad floyd roses (there are so many of them, sadly)i.e.

1.) hard to set-up
2.) gets out of tune often
3.) kills sustain

those stuff are from bad Floyd Roses. if you have a good one ... man, its amazing.

i have only owned one guitar with a really good Floyd Rose, and i couldnt use its features. it was a 1996 USA Dimebag Signature i sold to a guy from France.

-*-

sadly, a lot of us are not experienced enough to really hate the way something sounds (me included).

as for looks and playability though, we all are entitled to that

amen to that bro. you explained everything very well (inc. about sa floyd rose)

nangaasar lang ako sa Les Paul vs. Strat tingy. It is really imposible to hate these guitars: Strat and Les Paul (basic to ng Rock n' Roll e, ano ba? mapa-anung genre ka gugustuhin mo ang mga to) Everyone basically "liked" or have been inspired by these guitars in some point of their lives. Nagbago man ang taste(developed in time) pero basic to e. Esp. when you're just starting out. You look up to you "basic" guitar idols and you try to cop them

OT: I admit of being a noob when it comes to floyded guitars so thanks for the enlightenment.   I may need to buy a real Floydrose bridge and have it assembled to a luthier since wala akong katyaga tyaga kung ako mismo gagawa.  Any idea how much a real Floyd bridge cost?

BTT: The tremolo effect maybe?  Sounds techno of some sort...

A real FR is expensive. I don't remember the price though but you can get cheaper ones that are also as good like GOTOH and Schaller. Also, try to upgrade the block to a Brass block. It gives more sustain as I've heard.

BTW, GOTOH Floyd Rose is around Php7,300.00 in Guitar Salon (It has a brass block already).
