I reckon when they get banned so fast is because their IP matches another banned user.

Wasn't Prince's Tele a knockoff? Also a lot of the rhythm parts from the Revolution era (at least live) were played by Wendy Melvoin on a Rickenbacker. Freddie Stone played a 335 as well as various members of the Funk Brothers. Steve Cropper played a Tele. The guy who played guitar on Stop Making Sense used a Strat. I've heard St. Vincent lay down some funky grooves on her own model as well as Jaguars and Jazzmasters. Most of the guitarists with P-Funk have played Strats but I have also seen DeWayne McKnight with a PRS. EWF's current rhythm guitarist plays a Les Paul.zvenx wrote: ↑Tue Apr 30, 2024 8:58 pm Indeed, Nile's is a Stratocaster and Prince was a Telecaster.. I think either (and as someone else said, a funky player can deliver on any ax), but for sure I would start with either (I tend to in theory prefer Strat for it, but in practice I find myself playing funkier with a Tele.. though when I am recording in my own studio since I don't own a strat or tele, I mostly use my Ibanez S-540 or Herman Li E-Gen (yes I know neither designed with this purpose in mind)).

Ultimately it's more about the feel and the chops, and any player can deliver etc. but I'd recommend something with a fixed bridge and single coils.

Freddie Stone often played a Tele.
I think Tele and Strat are good for funk
