Hey Brokin as promised a quick demo of the city limits. bridge to neck pup. Haven't had a chance to intonate or give it a decent setup yet and its running stock PBG hardware other than the toneriders. so I'll probably upgrade the bridge, tuners, electrics and a bone nut. I chose a warm channel so you could hear a bit of a warmer tone. Excuse sloppy playing !

Noisy bugger ain't ya Woks, they sound similar but not quite the same as the Seymour Duncan stacked HBs that I just sold to fund the Tonerider Pure Vintage set
haha no worries DK, it's hard to compare pickup sounds when everyone runs different amps and effects

And it gets monstered by YT or SC, I put a remix of Ride Ride Cowboy up on SoundCloud and in the silence at the end of the track there is significant white noise that isn't there in any of the tracks in the DAW or the master, so it is an artifact of the SC compression algorithm, YouTube does the same.
Just by the by it looks like Sound Cloud is in financial strife and may not survive past the end of the year and Photobucket has a new policy to prevent 3rd party sharing which means those of us who post or pics on here hosted from PB may find them getting blocked
hey guys, yeah i run a jet city tube 20w amp i dont have any effects pedals so basically the sound that you hear from my vids are just pure guitar and of course my terrible playing haha. but when i record (through my phone) it doesnt sound as good as in person. do you guys notice that? i know my phone wouldn't record the best but i didnt think it would've made that much of a difference. Anyway i am learning (trying) some red hot chilli peppers and some Stevie Ray Vaughan do you think the blues set or city limits set?

Hi brokin, a very good mate of mine has been a long time Fender Strat and Musicman owner and we compared his $2k+ guitars to my PBG kit guitar through his Marshall amp.
My guitar has the Tonerider City Limits pickups. We wanted to compare them through the same amp, but by the time we unplugged his and plugged mine in we decided that the difference was so negligible that we couldn't tell which was best.
He was so impressed he asked me to make him a Tele style guitar with the some Toneriders in it and now he wants me to make him another one with Toneriders.
I don't even bother trying other brands anymore. All my guitars have, or will eventually have Toneriders.
No connection with them just a happy customer.

Just consulted Mr Google and came up with this for the SRV Strat, don't forget he had a fairly high action and used fence wire for strings both of which would have had quite an effect on his tone.
Fender Stevie Ray Vaughan Strat Features:
3-color sunburst design with polyurethane finish.
Maple neck with deep, thick oval shape.
Solid alder body.
Fender/Gotoh vintage-style tuners.
Pao ferro rosewood fingerboard.
21 frets.
Dot inlays.
3 Texas Special single-coil pickups.

Tonerider Hot Classics are supposed to be close to Texas Specials but until I get the Tele finished they are just sitting there looking pretty dressed in gold.
