I have had one of those musical revelations moments yesterday.

I get them when I listen to a song that is just so deep..its hard to explain.

Basically after listening to that one particular song, all I can do is sit and think about it, I cannot be doing anything at all other than sitting still and basking in its awe, its quite strange.

Well this happened to me yesterday, and the song was 1983 (A Merman I should turn to be).

its so true...and so magnificent..and so beautiful.

I was wondering if it was my amp or what, but when I would put the amp into "neutral" eg. 1-1-1 or 5-5-5 or 10-10-10 on its equalizer, it would sound exceptionally middle-y.

It distorted well, and gave me a humbucker crunch (especially when I set my switch on humbucking mode :p) but unless I put it like 10-1-10 or something like that it wouldn't sound real good. Like people look for that "hot" overwound pickup sound, that sound was burning my hands of it was so hot. It was strange coming from a single coil, I would have thought it was modded or something.

Well anyways I always had my pickups pretty high, when I set them down lower....man did that strat shine.

It sounds like a vintage strat! Not only that, the versatility of the guitar gave me options to alter my sound to a 60's British-invasion tone, and a surf rock tone on the rhythm, and a Hendrix scream on the lead!

I am still astounded that I payed $150 for this guitar. Due to the fact that this guitar is 4 years old and a Squire, I can assume that Squire guitars are amazing.

i only had to do a little work on it, and the "tuning" problems everyone faces with those guitars is just because there is only ONE tremolo spring on that thing, put two or three in and it becomes a rock when it comes to tuning.

Man that thing keeps on surprising me.

Ok, I would like to announce to all of you that I am going to create the new generation TPU Power user sig. It is going to be based off of the new tpu logo, and once that comes out so will the sig.
