    Just put a J Mascis MIJ Jazzmaster on layaway :) 

    Very cool!  But start saving up now- the amp set up to go with it will set you back a bit, lol:

    Bruce's tele looks more naturally reliced that Ed's to me. 
    If I remember correctly from that same Fretboard Journal issue that talked about him having a high output p90 under the guard stated that Ed's tele is a real deal 50's and not some custom shop relic job.

    And if memory serves me correct, bruce retired "The Tele" and had fender and his own guitar tech make him replicas of the guitar.

    So if that is all correct Ed's actually has a more natural relic...what a world
    That s some solid info.  Thank you 
    I am a certified guitar nerd, especially when it comes to the Boss, Eddie, and Neil young's gear.
    Love it!  What pedal do I need to get for that Eddie sound?  
    This may have changed, but I remember reading forever ago Ed doesn't use pedals? Maybe they still do, but 10c used to have a page with info on the gear used. I remember even basic diagrams of how it was all hooked up.
    Anyway, I remember they said Ed didn't use pedals. He sets up the gain on the amp to be on the edge of distortion. When he wants a clean sound he strums lightly, when he wants a heavy sound he strums harder. And that's how he changes between the clean and dirty sounds.
    That was probably 20 years ago when I read that, so who knows if that's still the case. 
    i think you are right. back then he played that schecter tele with hiwatt amp. with 2 guitars already he did not need to do much. was basically the 3rd guitar with a cleanish, edge of breakup kind of tone to be in the middle of mike and stone. 

    i am not sure how he is doing it now, but his tele, that sg, and some different les pauls all with p 90s, and a few strats i think, into his old fender amps. i do not remember him using any pedals. he doesn't really need to with a keyboard and 2 guitars already. 

    i think his best clean tone i have ever heard was when he was soundchecking immortality on the immagine in cornice doc with that pete townshend les paul. stunningly amazing tone right there. 
    I haven't seen that video since it came out.
    Is the PT Les Paul that one with a third pickup in the middle? Did he have that back then?

    yeah that is one of the PTs he had. i think he had a cherry sunburst, but this one is the red one, #5.

    in the video it looks like he has the pickup selector in the middle position but i have no idea how that thing is wired up. sounds like he has a phaser kind of effect or something on it later in the video.

    Sounds like he changes pickups a few times and definitely a chorus kicking on right at the end there.

    Just bought this guy. 1996 MIA 50th anniversary tele.

    Been trying to pick up and learn again after about 20 years. Sold my other MIJ fender to put towards a move and spent $100 on a squire. It’s been about a year, but spent that time trading up. Find a good deal on an upgrade and buy it, then sell my old one for a little more than I paid. I’m probably only the original $100 into this after doing that for a year and buying/selling about a half dozen guitars.
