It was back to the '62 RI JM for writing sessions with Weite this week. Amazing sounding guitar but action is a tad high still, despite various attempts to set it up. Couldn't be arsed to schlep my Les Paul. 

thats an amp setup and a half Ben!

It's been this one for me today. My pair of Gibsons are my daily runners, but every so often this guitar reminds me how much I love it.

Ta, yeah, it’s the other lads’. I just borrow it unless we have something coming up in which case I cart my shit over there. The Custom 20 is a really good sounding amp.

I've been playing all the Teles today, but mostly my new Kithara Astral (the one on the left).
~35 year old set of Filtertrons, plenty of bite

What is the MandoTele like?

@KDS it's a cheapie but perfectly playable, intonates well and surprisingly resonant.

The main drawbacks are the neck is a touch slim, the frets could be taller and the string balance isn't great with the e strings having lower output than the rest (a well known issue on these). A compressor largely resolves that issue. 
You can get replacement pickups but they're wildly expensive compared to comparable guitar pickups (£180-220 for a pair)

I've now got this which is a much nicer instrument all round but would cost 5x the price new.

Been playing this all day.

Whacked my OTS 20 mini through a pair of old Peavey Scorpion speakers today, sounded clear and they break up later than my Eminence Gruvnor speaker in my other cab. I actually prefer the openness of the Scorpion's speakers. 

My Navigator 335 copy is hard to beat. So many tones in this thing!

Is that a TSP in the middle? I’ve considered buying one potentially, but no shops ever seem to stock them.
