Wow. Beautiful guitar Vinny!

Vinny, since everything remains the same, do you notice the acoustic difference also in the amplified tone?

Better pix of the two Campellones side-by-side would be nice.

Mark did you another solid by making them sound different. Variety is the spice of life!

I will make sure TI's are on your Deluxe when it ships out. Mark didn't have any TI's in stock so I just told him to slap a set a Chromes on it. Put away that whiskey jug. TI's by sundown. Don't want your laser accuracy marksmanship diminished Sir 007. Neither does the Queen.

Chromes are not that bad. I got them on the SF. I didn’t want to waste a good set of strings.
Although one issue..
When I tune to a Standard tuning the intonation is spot on, up and down the neck. But when I drop D tune, I have to make the low D “flat” in order for the octaves from 3rd fret on up to match. My 165 doesn’t have this issue and I never had this problem with other guitars or TI strings. Weird.

chromes are completely different from thoms jazz swings...
chromes have hex core..thoms round---big difference!
chromes are stainless steel wrap...thomastiks are pure nickel-huge difference
chromes are flats for people that really don't like or know flats...very roundwound-ish...they are initially bright (but fade quickly) and have some grit to the wrap
thomastiks are vintage mellow and stay that way..they are thin inner core and therefore low tension/stiff feeling...their double wrap of pure nickel is also softer and smoother on the fingertips
this is not conjecture...its design!!
cheers

TI's and Gibson (or Campellone )....the perfect combo. Oh and a Henriksen too.

Plain steel high E's and B's are all pretty much the same regardless of manufacturer.
-
I agree, but I don’t have any of those either.. only 12 and 16.

My guitar made the Campellone hall of fame. Check out the great pics Mark took on the last page of his gallery. Also check out the black face beauty. That black face is really appealing.
Mark had knee surgery Monday. Prayers for fast healing so he can get back to the chisel.
