Later iterations have featured coil-tapped humbuckers for single-coil tone variations. Paul’s hollowbody guitars are fully braced and completely hollow, like a violin. Trey describes it as having “the bite of a Strat and … the meat of a hollowbody.” All while the superior tonewoods and hollow chamber lend a woody, natural tone and unparalleled sustain. The scale length gives the guitars a twangy Fender-ish bite and vocal quality while the pickups give them that high-output, compressed, mid-range-heavy hard rock sound. Furthermore, so many of the mass production guitars made today are variations on the basic Fender/Gibson ideas that there are hardly any mass production guitars out there with the 25.5″ + dual humbucker combo (notably, several of Jerry Garcia’s guitars featured this rare combination). Strats and Teles usually have single coils and Gibsons generally have a 24.75″ neck scale, so the Languedoc doesn’t fit neatly in either category. Languedocs are unique for many reasons, one of which is that they have a 25.5″ neck scale like a Fender Stratocaster or Telecaster but dual humbuckers like a Gibson Les Paul, 335, or SG. ![]() ![]() ![]() There are a few others that have made occasional appearances that are not (yet) included here Trey’s acoustic guitars are at the bottom of this page. Below is a rundown of Trey’s most frequently-used Paul Languedoc guitars, with a brief description accompanying each picture.
