I am looking to upgrade my guitar but I can’t come to a concrete decision. I currently play an Epiphone Wildkat Studio which I have enjoyed thoroughly, but I feel as though a different instrument would allow me to broaden my range further. It’s a very bluesy guitar with a beautiful fat and clean sound, so I’m looking for something that will contrast greatly with it. I think I’m looking for something that can really whine and scream, but chug hard as well. A Strat seems like a good idea, but I haven’t found one that really felt right in my hands. And I’ve tried some Teles, but they don’t chug as much as I am looking for. If anyone has any suggestions, my ears are open.
And the 24-08 models can independently coil split either pickup. So in the middle position you can have either dual humbuckers, dual single coil, bridge single coil and neck humbucker, out bridge humbucker and neck single coil.
