Hey Aaron. Cindy Cashdollar plays a Remington triple. Three weeks ago she played it on Prairie Home Companion (and has done so numerous other times; last week she played a Stringmaster T8 on the show. You could spin that info a number of ways but I'll read it to say that the Remington holds its own. For the little I've heard it I'd say that it sounds smoother with less bite than the Fender--I don't know what pickups Remington uses but if they are the GeorgeL humbuckers that could account for it somewhat.
----and to acknowledge that I'm speaking with my mouth full and my mind empty, I know nothing of the Playboy and I realize that it is no doubt a different animal from the Remington pedal and non-pedal 4-legged models. Hence, just some useless information. Oh well. [This message was edited by Jon Light on 31 January 2004 at 06:12 AM.]
