I now have a Suhr Classic, but I hope to check a G&L one day...
I have tuning stability problems with the Suhr though, I don't understand how so many players uses high end guitars (Suhr, Tom Anderson, the latest AZ series from Ibanez...) with classic trems instead of Floyds and always stay in tune
For our latest gig, which was private, I used my Tom Anderson instead of the Suhr for "Comfortably numb" :
No soundboard recording this time, but I like this solo more than the Casela one, more restrained and more controlled... But the Casela crowd was much better, 1800 people that are there for you vs 300 tourists and a few friends for the re-launch of a hotel :
A question for Tom Anderson owners : is their Drop Top classic, with three single coils and a maple neck, close enough to a real Stratocaster ?
Agree on that, crossed one in Singapore a long long time ago. Neck was absolutely perfect, nice jumbo frets.I can Highly recommend these, very underrated.

I've NEVER worked so hard on a small set of presets... After porting them to the Axe-Fx III, I've reviewed tons of things, added new stuff/scenes etc., changed many sounds countless times... And these four last days, I've recorded myself playing all the songs from start to finish over backing tracks, then reamped the DI track with critical ears while tweaking the presets again etc... Here's the short version (I won't share the 2:20 hours one, lol, there's still stuff I need to play better etc.).
These are a SERIOUS upgrade over the Axe-Fx II versions. I still want to fix some things : the piezo sounds etc., and the alternate versions of the piezo presets, for standard electric guitar or electro-acoustic ("wish you were here", for example, is available in three different versions)
This was played on 5 months old strings (I know, I know...)
Fractal Audio Forum exclusivity : excerpts from last night rehearsal, where I was testing all these new sounds. This is an unlisted video, please don't share it elsewhere

Thanks, I'll check that, hoping, as it's Glenn, that he also tested clean sounds?Don't feel bad. Glenn Fricker just did a vid about the differences on guitar between the audible differences between old strings, new strings and boiled strings. The verdict, almost no discernable difference whatsoever. He was most surprised as he's a huge fan of fresh strings for recording. A similar vid of old, boiled and fresh strings for bass did produce a noticeable difference.
Ok, i am about a year late to the party here and not quite sure how I missed this, but wow... incredible voice, great look, perfect addition! I hope she's still a part of your show!Let me introduces out new backing vocals singer, Joelle :
If this guitar is much brighter than your other one, it’s either the pickups or the electronics that are different. The fact that the problem exists with a known-good pickup suggests it’s the electronics.Hi guys, question regarding Suhr guitars which are my main guitars for this project (I have another big concert soon, Axe-Fx III this time). I have two of them, the Orange one (traditional vibrato) which you can see in the videos above and a green one, S6-J Series, with a Floyd Rose.
My issue with it : I thought that the stock bridge pickup, a Suhr Doug Aldritch, was faulty, because it sounded weak compared to the SSV+ on the Orange Suhr - I had to make much more efforts with legato playing etc. So I removed a DiMarzio AT1 from my Ibanez J Custom to put it on the Suhr. To my surprise, it sounded weak on it too. On the J Custom it has enough power and the legatos etc. are effortless. So what can be the cause ? The electronics ? The guitar also has that small switch that plus the bridge pickup directly to the output, but I don't think it can be the problem. And my technician can't find any fault in the electronics - the SC pickups sounds like they need to, although that guitar is much brighter than my other Suhr. Maybe it's the Gotoh Floyd ? I'm considering ordering a sustain block from Floyd Rose (although they didn't respond to my email in a week). I would like to use the S6 because of the tuning stability
Yes the other pickups are fineIf this guitar is much brighter than your other one, it’s either the pickups or the electronics that are different. 5e fact that the problem exists with a known-good pickup suggests it’s the electronics.
Am I right in thinking that the other pickups behave as expected?
The bridge pickup is the only humbucker. Make sure that the guitar's wiring isn't doing something surprising, like putting the two coils out of phase.Yes the other pickups are fine
Ah, this is new and specific information....I need to do much more efforts with my left hand compared to any other superstrat guitar I have
