Interesting choice. I’d argue that the Tele is the most versatile of that bunch - it can cover a fair bit of the ground that the other two do as well as doing its own thang. Les Pauls look cooler though and 339s cooler still… Or you could get one of each? Welcome!

But not as sexy as the bassists. Another Basschat moon lighter. Im terrible at guitar. Have tinkered for many tears but my little fat fingers don’t wanna play. However, during lockdown I wrote a lot and composed bass guitar and keys for my new songs with my new project. The others liked ‘em! So now I’m playing a Squier tele that has seen better days but doesn’t belong to me. When I find some magic beans, I’ll buy something for myself. Torn between ES-339, Les Paul, and a Tele.

Just to share the music of this wonderfull guitar player:

Good afternoon, @Nothingman , and ... Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share.

Nice trio to have to choose from. Normally, for me, I’d have whittled that down to the 339 or Tele. However, I’ve recently been drawn into LP GAS again, after many, many years (just the aesthetics, I haven’t played one or anything). Hoping some magic beans come your way soon.

Wot 'e sed ...

These are direct replacements for Gibson SG and Les Paul (according to the review comments). https://www.thomann.de/gb/grover_135n.htm I suspect that Epiphone use a variety of hardware up to and including GIbson OE Grovers and I doubt they alter the drilling rig to accommodate different sizes so my guess is that they’re a common fit. The only way to be sure of course is to compare the specs of these (and other Grovers) against the physical dimensions of the ones currently fitted. At £58 for the set, I’d be tempted to fit these anyway as a minor upgrade.

Thank you, Crusoe! Will have a look at this one

First finish on the body. Love a nice piece of walnut.
