I have the following for sale. Two Celestion G12T75 16ohm speakers pulled out of an original JCM 800 cab. Used condition. Asking $35 each. Two Celestion Vintage 30 16ohm speakers. These are practically new. I've only played through these in 2 gigs at "loud" volumes. Other than that...

First the gear: 1977 Marshall 2204 master volume superlead. 4x12 marshall cab HSS bastard caster strat 500k vol/tone pots. I'm having a hard time achieving just the tone that I want from the bridge HB. I guess the tone I'm looking for is close to a JB in a LP but a little more open and not as...

This guitar is simply amazing! Classic 3 barrel bridge, custom shop 59 pickups, 4 way switching plus S-1 switching gives this classic tele 6 pickup options. In case you're not familiar with this guitar, see the specs at http://www.fender.com/products/search.php?partno=0141502389 Seriously...

So I'm trying to pinpoint a problem with my guitar. I've done all the intonation work myself, but ever since getting a new neck for my strat, I've been running into problems. It seems like the b and g string both seem to be "off" on certain frets, yet it is in tune at the 12th fret and the...

I recently bought a Johnson stereo footswitch for my Laney VC30 212 combo. The footswitch works the way it should. 1st switch changes between the overdrive and clean channel, 2nd channel turns reverb off and on. The only issue I have is an audible pop that is loud when switching. When I...

I have a mahogany body strat with rosewood fretboard "bastardcaster" that needs new neck and mid single coils. The sound of the strat is kinda weird in that it's a hard instrument to "dial in." For example, here's how the guitar reacted with the following bridge humbuckers. Custom Custom...

Hey, just wondering if anyone knew of any online american reputable dealers/stores that sells the Laney VC30 footswitch. I've been looking for this footswitch for ever. I've heard that a Marshall stereo footswitch will also work. Is this true? The footswitch turns the reverb on and off and...

I originally was trying to get some SD single coils, but recently aquired a dimarzio HS-2 hum cancelling single coil. I've never used hum cancelling single coils before, but I figured I'd give these a try. I heard that Eric Johnson uses them so what the heck heh. I was wondering if these...

This is the first time I've ever encountered this with any pickup. I bought a duncan 59 bridge humbucker with the nickle cover. I opened up my strat and lo and behold, the mounting legs goes down way too deep. I compared this with my other duncan pickups and for some reasons, this duncan...

I have a Nickel covered bridge JB pickup for trade. There's is almost a full length of lead left since I almost never cut the leads and carefully tuck the excess lead carefully inside the guitar cavity. The nickel plating may have minor scuffs on it, but the pickup is practically new. It has...

Hi, I just have a question. I have a strat that I've been trying to tweak for so long. It has 2 single coils and a humbucker in the bridge. I've tried a JB, custom custom, and now it has the aph alnico II in the bridge. I liked the custom custom, but the tone was just a bit to focused...

I was playing my guitar through my Laney VC30 the other day and noticed something. The speakers had this high end fizzle to the sound when the amp was set to about 7 or 8. The more the speakers were pushed with the natural gain of the amp, the more the speaker had thiis really high, trebly...

I was wondering what pickup positions did Hendrix mainly use? His tones seem bright to be the neck or the neck / mid position. I'm thinking it's the bridge mid combo he's using, especially on "Hey Joe" and "Little Wing". Srv's instrumental cover of "Little Wing" sounds to be the bridge and...

I have a nickel covered, wax potted JB bridge pickup in almost mint shape (only few weeks old) for trade. I may even possibly have a wax potted, nickel covered custom custom for trade depending on how much I like the alnico 2 bridge I'm getting to replace it. If I like the custom custom more...

I'm looking to buy a set of Kinman noiseless single coil pickups for my strat. I'm looking for either the blues or woodstock models. Tom
