Title: Norton vs moe joe
Post by: aselix on April 11, 2017, 01:22:39 AM

I like the Norton, with the harmonics and whatnot, but I find it a bit too "modern" sounding and a bit too big.  Thinking the Mo Joe would be a good alternative...or the fred?  Think a vintage Norton type sound.....

Thanks

IMO, you should try the Air Norton. Have you tried a FRED before?

Hi,

I'm gonna second FRED, and if you want a little bit more open and slightly brighter, give a PAF Pro in the bridge a try out.
AN sound equally as modern as a Norton, I'd think if the OP thought Norton is too modern, AN would be too.

HTH,
Cory

Yeah, I think the Fred may be what you are after.
