I never knew there are so many different guitars. Can  you tell a difference in the way that play or sound? *I mean electric versus electric or acoustic versus acoustic*

Electrics it depends more on the electronics.....mainly pick ups.....and acoustics depends on construction and tone woods. In the end the player determines the most unique part of a sound.

Doesn't the finish also make a difference in the sound of the acoustic?

An EBO, used to have an EB-3 myself. Liked it a lot. Played with a guy for quite a while that used a Rick like that. Have any problems with the neck set on that Kramer? Those things tended to collapse in on themselves.

My main axes at the moment are Jimmy Vaughn Strats modified to personal specs played through a Blues Junior, Hot Rod Deluxe/DeVille, or Hot Rod DeVille/Deluxe all modified to personal specs. My basses are a Hofner knock off, a Jazz, and a Precision played thorough a Rogue 120/15 Mini-Combo, an Ampeg 115, or a Peavey Alpha tube head through a Peavey 1516 cabinet.

I bought that EBO brand new in 1969! I really loved that short neck! It let you fly like you were playing lead! But I loved the Rick sound for punch and hard driving stuff.

The only problem I ever had with the Kramer was the bridge. It popped off once. But man, the battery for the pickup is in a really bad place - inside the body up above the sound hole - really hard to change in a hurry!

Bass being more a sideline for me I like the short scale necks. I love the sound of a Jazz though. It's got that bass register of a Boesendorfer or a Steinway going on. I forgot about the bridge thing on those Kramers. That's another common problem on that guitar.
