zdogma,
I've been thinking about getting a Ghia. I have a 1x12 cab w/ a Celestion Blue and wondered what it might sound like, thanks for posting these. What guitar and pickups are you using on these? I like the tone of ghiabluebridge more than Ghiacelestion-blue, fyi.

Ghiacelestionblue is an LP studio, 490R. It's a bit muddy, I find. That's with the tone control wide open.
Bridge clip is LP studio with an overwound lollar bridge humbucker. I guess the handwound wins.
I'm waiting for a little clearer neck to try, should arrive in the next few weeks.
Again, apologies for the playing, it is pretty uninspired, but I find it hard to play in front of the computer.

OK Z dawg..'mornin' !
Got 'em to load this AM, great tone, I agree the Lollar kill's the gibby, I have a '96 Studio and while I can live with the stock bridge pup that neck pup is aweful !!! DARKKKKK ugh, I don't play it much but if I change I'll try WRC Darkbursts in it.
Ya fooled , me !! we been talkin' Tele pups and I was expecting Tele tones, fired it up and said "that a Lester.." LOL Man, don't appologize for your playing, that type of noodling is great for me to hear the components. I have slow ears..sounds funny but I do not like 10,000 notes... I like one note solos with feel, tone, vibrato and soul !!!! It's where that note lay's, order your self one of Bluzsteels newest CD's, HE know where to put "That note", very tasty, not flashy, appeals to me and after hearing those licks I think you'll agree. his site is in his autograph, heckuva nice guy ta boot. Did ya hear from Jerry?
Later, Curt

I liked the first one with the Lollars. That is the tones I am after. How did you have your Ghia set and what tubes are you running?
I have a Emenince Red Fang in mine and Mullard EL84's and a Mullard 12ax7 in V1.

Straight blues-Tubes are 5751 in V1 and V2 (cause the lester has a lot of output, I usually use a 12ax7 with the tele) JAN 5y3 rectifier and NOS ge EL84's. I have some band clips that sound a bit better, but I can't get them onto the computer yet (only 1 track comes thru). Volume about noon, tone 1 oclock.
Curt-will try to get some tele sounds. No word from Jerry yet but the mail didn't bounce this time.
