Is mentioning any instantly dismissed, pre-2000 Squier that ended up shitting all over Fenders really fair, though?

I think the Burns headstocks are a rare example of bootleggy shapes that I think actually work, proportion-wise.

Yeah... You generally want to pair an amp with speakers that can handle at least a bit more power than the amp can output for that very reason. I have no idea what that vintage of Vibrolux packed out of the factory but I doubt they were living that close to the edge.

Headstock logo and my friends signature. Same spot as the Marr Jaguar. http://c1.staticflickr.com/1/375/18027947313_85207c6ffc_z.jpg headstock by punkacc9 , on Flickr So what neck did you end up using? Surely you didn't plug the truss rod route on the Squier one, you posted earlier. Looks dopes, btw.

I'm sorry if this post isn't super useful but given all the equalization and effects at your disposal, you should be able to get any kind of guitar sound that you want out of a pickup, so long as it isn't broken.

I think the MS-20 and MiniBrute are too different to be compared directly. The MS-20 is flat-out a way more powerful studio instrument than either of the Brutes but I'd be worried about trying to program it live, unless I was doing improv sets. The MiniBrute with it's arpeggiator and full sized keys...

Arturia Microbrute.

Maybe run it rough a delay for double squelch bonus points.

Other than the Renaldo sig, yeah.

I'm not crazy about the idea of jazzblasters but I can imagine how the singular finish option and the prohibitive price might have deterred many of the people that really are into this configuration from buying one.
