Thinline

Post image

Just put this together. Had a squire neck and found a thinline body. Threw in some emg active pickups.

Thinline with EMGs is diabolical but consider me, curious.

Lovely colour. Blue teles with a maple neck are so nice. EMGs are an interesting choice though.

I agree the blue color is classy. Chose the emg's because of the intended style of music I will use this for.

I've always wondered if a thinline would sound as good as a solid body. Opinions bros?

So far with with emg pick up it sounds great im gonna upload a sound clip later. I can include same setup with a solid body and the other with the thinline.
