I have a 7-string mahogany guitar w/ a JB in the bridge and a '59 in the neck. I am noticing that the '59 sounds kinda bright, and not as full as I'd like it to - almost single coil bright & thin. Is this normal? I rewired my guit last night using the schematics via SD site and all went well. I...

Mistake in title: should be 3-way switch 2 volume 1 tone! So after playing multiple HH and SS guitars, I find that I don't really use positions 2 & 4 on my HSS Strat. I'm not too worried about this, since I have a SSS Strat that I plan to keep with a 5 way switch. My question is: are the...

Hey all, After installing some DiMarzios in my HSS Strat I am looking for a 560 pF capacitor as well as a 300K ohm resistor for a treble bleed circuit (per Dimarzio's recommendations). After searching the net, I'm not exactly sure which ones of these values to get, since there are so many...

So I've decided to go back to the sweetness that is the '57 Classic in my alder/maple HSS but I'm having a hard time deciding between the neck and middle SCs. My main contenders are the SSL-1, the SSL-5 or the Fender Tex-Mex SCs. I love the tones and boldness of all of these but which one...

..... bridge humbucker for a alder HSS Strat (w/ maple neck). I currently have a DiMarzio Tone Zone with 2 Fast Track 1's in there, and it is too compressed, not loud, tight or punchy IMHO. The FTs are a little too thin sounding to me as well, so I may be looking towards some Quarter Pounds in...

Hello all, Yes, it's time for yet another HSS Strat pickup suggestion thread!!! So, I have an alder MIM Strat w/ maple neck. The pickups in there now are 2 Texas Specials and a Pearly Gates (A2 mag). I'm looking for medium to hot pickups all around. Single coils and a new humbuggy as well. I...

I can probably push $1000 at the very most. So I'd like to know what would be a good quality electric guitar at these prices. I'm looking at a couple of models: Gibson Les Paul Studio Faded (Cherry) Epiphone Les Paul Goldtop Fender Tex Mex (Jimmie Vaughan) Fender Highway One (HSS) PRS SE...

SOLD I'm looking to trade my 1999 Peavey Wolfgang Special (USA) for some specific items, but I am open to any offers as well (+/- cash.) The guitar is in great condition with very few dings on the back of the guitar. The unfinished hard rock maple neck is in great condition as well, and...

.......... more "forgiving" when placing pickups? And which woods are harder (aka pickier) to match pickups to in your experiences? Also, how does a solid body of one wood compare to those guitars that have tops? Just trying to learn a little more about geetars!

So last night I was up ( I work nights) and trying out the R30's direct out into my old Boss BR-8. One thing I did note is that I had to adjust my settings to be a little brighter than I normally would, but I'm diggin' the tones from this amp! The clips are with my MIM Fender Fat Strat with...
