RE: the road worn series
A guitar that looks like it's been around the block, for the player who hasn't.
Isn't buying one of these akin to the doctor/lawyer who suits up in leather to ride his Harley on the weekends?
Go buy a Squire and get some custom pups from Wolf.
Or get some active pups from EMG.
Re: amps
I have a
Line 6 Flextone XL. It is a sim amp, or modeling amp, and has a buttload of simulated outputs built into it. It's fun, but I am also looking for a "deal" on an old "evil twin".
