Re: Hot Rails for Tele + 4 way Switch Help This might make it easier: 1 = Black from Bridge 2 = Black from neck 3 = To Volume Pot 4 = To Volume Pot 5 = Green from Neck Since everything is working properly otherwise, I'm thinking the issue with something with the switch itself. Thanks for...

Re: Hot Rails for Tele + 4 way Switch Help Hm, nada? Did I break a rule or is the pic just horrible? Maybe this will help: I'm thinking either, the yellow jumper by the bridge needs to go or that I should move the bridge wire to the very last lug. Suggestions?

Hey all, So I'm working on a Tele build which is about 95% done. However, I've run into an issue with wiring the guitar up. I with the Hot Rails set with a 4 way switch, so I was following the diagram SD has posted...

Been a very quiet lately, not that I was ever super active here. But still, NGD! Jackson RR3, very lightly used condition. Got her earlier today, once I got the Floyd in tune couldn't put her down. Debating if I should put Ernie 10s on now or play with the D'Addario (I think) 9s for a bit, after...

Hey all, I've been playing with the idea of getting a pedal to use to add spaceyness/echo/size whatever you want to call it to passages. Make doomy chord progressions take the next step, have melodies sound like they are bigger than one guitar's work, that type of thing. I currently have a...

Picked this baby up today. Don't think I did too bad for $350. The 490 set might end up getting swapped out for something else later, I'll leave them in for a bit to see how I gel with them.

I've been looking into some guitars on Craigslist, one of them being an LPJ from 2014, with silver covered pickups and a coil tap. I asked the seller and he claims it is stock. I don't necessarily think he is lying, but did these ever ship with that configuration? I remember the black EMG type...

Anybody have any input on this pedal? I'm interested in possibly getting one to replace my TS9, as the ERD is true bypass. How does it compare in terms of touch sensitivity? IME the TS9 is not terribly responsive to pick attack alone, decent but nothing to write home about, but does well with...

So EVH is releasing a replica of the "Circles" guitar Eddie used in the Unchained vid. You can read about it here, it's just a different paintjob compared to the other Frankenstrat models out. What's interesting is this: Did DiMarzio lose the patent protection on the double creme pickups? Or...

So, I have had a Jackson JS32 DKA-M for about three weeks. After the initial setup, the Floyd was working great. I kept it with the original .09 gauge strings it came shipped with for about a week and a half, then I swapped over to 10s. Up until yesterday, it was still working just fine...

Hey guys, So Sunday when I was playing my Dark Terror I noticed the light on it went out, still worked fine otherwise. Played through it fine, came back for a second helping and it lit up, so I figured there wasn't any issue. Yesterday, worked fine. Today, light won't go on again. This isn't a...

I bought an eight string guitar a few months ago, and the previous owner had put really thick strings for the F# and B strings. The F# was definitely around a 90-100 gauge string, the B probably a 70-75. The B string from the EB 8 string set fits fine, no buzz, but the F# is terrible on the open...

Re: cHECK THIS OUT..550.00 BUCKS FOR A USED tELE NECK! I don't know man, $500 for a maple neck? How much better is the wood than the regular American line? You can get a much more tonally and visually exciting neck that will play just as well from USACG/Warmoth with exotic woods. At that price...

Re: Post Pictures of Amazing Guitars This guitar belongs to Dave from Revocation. One of the best spalted tops I've seen.

So, I have an Epiphone SG Special from 2008 in my collection, first guitar. Basswood body, I believe mahogany neck and rosewood fretboard. They've changed the woods since, so that's why I'm not 100% on the neck material's origins. I've upgraded the pickups ages ago to an SD Jazz/Distortion set...
