jaguar i can get that real good surf tone but a jazzmaster has a better low end twang but the real tone comes from your fingers!! |

I'm using a Squier Jagmaster that I rewired to for parallel and split-coil operation. Both modes provide a real nice surf tone. Charles Bandla |

Over the years, 'have played surf on a JM, Jag, Strat, Mosrite, SG, LP and 335, with pretty much equal success. In this opinion, if you go into a Twin Reverb, one can do little wrong. Maybe a litte less success on the SG and LP, but remember, the original "The Endless Summer" album was played on a 335 and Gretsch bass. |

I like it. I go back and forth between my Gretsch Duo Jet, my Jaguar and my Strat. All three are pretty good for Surf. —The artist formerly known as: Synchro When Surf Guitar is outlawed only outlaws will play Surf Guitar. |

I built my favorite surf guitar, back in 1993, and still love playing it today. |

I go back and forth between my Fender Strats, and my Ibanez Jet King. I put Kent Armstrong P-90's on the Jet, and it surf's like hell. |

Currently my vote would go to my iBanez Jet King (JTK30):
Even stock it cuts through in a mix extremely well. Mel —Mel |

In terms of tone, I tend to gravitate toward Jaguars. But as far as what I own, it's a Tele w/Bigsby and a fake Jazzmaster copy with Gretsch Hilotrons. — |

Not sure if anybody already mention Gretsch Silverjet with Deharmond PU as I didn't read all the posts of this thread. I use myself that surf green Fender Jaguar CIJ that I have on my avatar and my vote went to the Fender Jaguar. Last edited: May 03, 2010 06:16:08 |
