I've been considering a 350 Liverpool for some time & was wondering if they feedback any less than a 330/340/360 due to not having a sound hole. Much as I love the 330's a smaller body would be a blast.

You might want to defer your decision for a little while Dominic as there may be another option for you to try out before too long.

The factory posted shots of unfinished guitars/bodies a few months ago which looked to be intermediate in size between a 325 and 330. See pics below. There's been much speculation (as yet unconfirmed by the factory) that finished guitars using these bodies will be appearing soon. If they do, they might be right on the money for what you're after.

Hmmm, looks kind of like a Capri! Still the (early) Liverpool has a the best body ever & 24 frets which I prefer for slide work. Man, I really wish they still made them with 24 frets. I'd be selling all my non Rics for a brand spanking new one in fireglo.

Anyone have feedback on feedback of a solid top vs slash?

I've never experienced much feedback with my 330. Theyve got a solid center like an ES-335.

I use feedback in my playing a lot and since my 370wb & 330's resonate so well they just feel alive when I really drive them. With the full band going I do get too much feedback with certain pedals and due to practice space limitations my speakers are right behind me.
