I'm building a semihollow with two P-90s. I love the "Deaf Eddie" wiring on my Tele and so I'd like to come up with a plan for "Gibson style" wiring that incorporates in/out of phase and series/parallel options. Attached is my first draft. A guy on a different forum roughed out the push-pull...

Looking at a couple of options for wiring my DIY tele build - it's a two single coils set up - bridge pup is a GFS lipstick and neck is a Duncan vintage SH1. I've mostly looked at two options: 1. the "Bill Lawrence" mod that gives you the standard tele switch positions, plus "neck plus bridge...

I've got a Vox AC 4 - there are tons of AC 4's; this is the one with a 12" speaker. Bought it used, but I think it's no more than 2 years old if that. If you're not familiar, this is Vox's small tube combo amp with two 12AX7 preamp tubes and one EL84 power tube. The speaker is a Celestion...

Currently using a modelling amp with half a kajillion effects. Considering upgrade to a Vox tube amp. This is affordable (barely) but will leave little left over for effects. I usually play clean, sometimes mildly crunchy, almost never full overdrive/superdistortion - but I do like to have just...

I got a sweet deal on a pair of Seth Lovers for my Ibanez AS73 (semihollow, their incarnation of an ES335) Knowing that wiring f-hole semihollows is a bit of a hassle, I am hoping to only do this job once. Option one: Sort of tepmted to pull the existing PUPs out and splice the Seth Lovers...

Explained in another thread how I am just getting back into guitar after a 32 year layoff. https://forum.seymourduncan.com/showthread.php?321322-Prodigal-Guitarist-Ibanez-AS73&p=4110072&posted=1#post4110072 Amplifier choices have changed a lot in 32 years. After a lot of searching and trying...

After a 32 year layoff, I randomly decided to pick up guitar again. Honestly it's been gnawing at me for years and it was finally my son's piano lessons that pushed me over the edge. So I picked up an Ibanez AS73 - their ES335 knockoff if you aren't familiar with their model designations. 32...
