Hi All,

I've been too busy with work and playing the guitar to post some pictures, but here is the new HTC that came through last month.

If that HTC was a baseball player, it would be suspended for 10 games. Love the TC on steroids!

Is that the "Trans Red to Dark Red Burst" finish?

Very nice, whatever it's called.

That is indeed what the finish is. It is a really nice, rich color that goes well with the ash top.

Hi Garret:

It seems to be M1 in the middle and TM2 ? bridge position, but:
- what is the neck pickup?
- Why is not a M pu?
- do you have a demo (mp3) or similar to hear the guitar?

I'm so interesting because, maybe will be my next TAG adquisition.

Thanks in advance

Hi Javier,

You are right about the bridge (TM2) and middle (M1)! The neck is an HO1-. I wanted a more traditional humbucker neck position sound. I really like the sound so far, but I need to live with it for a while. I got a classic over a drop top primarily so that I could change pickup size and configuration easier. So, if I don't like it I could go with an M1 neck or even go back to vintage singles to make it a more traditional model.

I don't have any mp3's yet, but might work on that as soon, and will definitely post them here when I get something recorded.

Sweet guitar,
How do you find the tilted M in the bridge to sound?
Congratulations on your new baby.
