Following the droolworthy thread posted by audiopaal on his new Nik Huber Redwood it got me thinking, can I get one awesome guitar to do everything I want?
I know a lot of the instructors use custom models and just wondered on the benefits, can I get all the tones I want from three guitars into one or am I compromising in each area? I really love the feel and tone of my strat neck pickup, but love the dirt and sustain of my Les Paul bridge HB, I love the feel and the neck of my Tele and love the crunchy biting bridge PUP.
Can a British (It would have to be British!) hand made custom model really compete with the technological vastness of Gibson or PRS?
One guitar would certainly be easier for me to handle but any of your experiences, recommendations or thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks biggrin.gif
