  • Magnet Swapping!!!

        How do you obtain magnets?? Can you buy them, or do you have to steal one from a different pup?

            I've got a link on my other computer for a source...I'll see if I can dig it up. It has A2, A3 and A5. A4 is harder to come by, I've got one just waiting for the right time and project.

                  Thanks for the tips. You think swapping an A2 into my JB would give me a fuller sound? Any links for mags appreciated. I didn;t see them on the other site.
