Hey all. First post here. Been playing a while and in fact started out with an SG 25 years ago, had a Junior in between as a back-up but have pretty much been all Tele since then. Anyhow I have my eye on playing some rockier stuff next year and treated myself to the Special, and tried it out this weekend in my current band. The tones are all in there, but obviously had to fiddle about with all my usual amp settings. It took me a while to work out how differently all the pedals were reacting too. What sorts of pedals are people using? I noticed my clean channel (straight from a Blues Junior) was pretty weak, and that I was jumping to the JHS Prestige (one of those 'always on' pedals like the EP Booster) as my base tone. Previously I'd been using that as my main overdrive lol. So I'm guessing I need a pedal to jump up a notch. I wondered about a Morning Glory and was kinda hoping JHS offered a double double with a boost like the Prestige then Morning Glory but not seen one yet.
Anyhow, I was expecting to have to tweak a fair bit and gotta say how much I have enjoyed playing it so far. Love the shorter scale and it's a beast with the fiestier stuff.
