I just had a new (to me) strat (surf green '60 closet classic) and I want to try this combo : Surfer neck RWRP Surfer middle Twang Banger bridge but when I play it the tone is horrible with the low E (sounds like I have a tremolo pedal running !) and the 4th position (neck and middle PUs)...

I just put some Phat Cats in my PRS Santana and man , those PUs rock !!! After several trials to get the right tone from this axe , I finally found its voice . My Santana sings now !!! The Phat cat is a real jaw dropper . I'm a big P90s user for years and I never thought I could get such a...

I have a set of Duncan P90 supposed to be coming from a PRS Mc Carty . One of those PU is supposed to be RWRP . Is there any way I can check which one is RWRP ?

A friend of mine came home with a nice Baker B1 guitar , carved top, Seth Lovers equiped , great playing and sounding !!! I'm stuck with the tone and playability of this axe and yes, it's a GAS attack !!! But my friend told me that "Baker guitars" is no more owned by Gene Baker but by Ed Roman...
