Psychadelic Rock Guitars
 
I would like to know all of your input on what guitar you find best suited for psychedelic space music from the outer worlds. No earthly Les Paul's please, just equipment that will send your ass floating to another planet. Personally I love the sound of a Gibson ES 335 (or its many counterparts like Samick RL's and whatnot) with high reverb for those spacey solo's, and able to handle the muddy sound of overdriven riffing.

So basically just tell me (or everyone else that cares) what guitar you have found to work well for this type of music. :beer:

Im curious, does the semihollow part actually change the sound any? I mean it looks to small to make any noticeable difference. ( in comparison to normal Tele Custom)

Why is it that everyone seems to spell psychedelic wrong? But anyways telecasters are great for psychedelic music, I myself use a RI '72 Telecaster Custom with brass saddles

If you noticed I corrected myself in the thread right after making it. Just am not able to change the title.

clean definitely. Overdriven the sustain is noticeable, distorted no not really.

Enough overdrive though can take he place of distortion.

I think Chris in KINSKI was playing one of those the other night, the tele thinline... I tend to play a Parker Nitefly for everything, it's super-versatile for live tho not always as delicate as I want in the studio, the twang bar is creamy and dreamy, and it stays in tune
