    Odd Reading

    Hi all, I've noticed that my Les Paul had been sounding off form of late, so did a quick reading check to see if there were any wiring issues, and found that although both pickups read fine individually, I'd get an OTT output reading of 15k - 17k when selecting the neck position. The neck is...

    Mega Ohm Reading

    Hi all, I recently had a pickup I sold come back to me due to no output, and a DCR of over 100M, which I'm completely baffled about. It's intended to be a Strat style neck pickup, circa 6k, and to the best of my knowledge was fine before it was posted out as part of a set, with no apparent...

    JVM Mixed Loads

    Anyone know if this is ok: The manual for the JVM says 2x8, or 2x16, and Marshall aren't responding to my Twittering.

    Celestion Neo Creambacks

    Anyone have any experience of these? I did do a quick site search, but that seemed to bring back just the odd mention of the standard version, and lots greenback results. I've a spare spot that needs filling, and I'm tempted, especially if the 10% discount eBay just sent me is usable against...

    Trimming Humbucker Covers

    Hi all, I bought some covers that have turned out to be far deeper than I'd hoped, and would like to trim them down, but haven't come up with any ideas on how to do so, other than to seek the help of nearby hardware stores. Failing that, I'm guessing that I'll just have to make do with the...

    Aria Pro II LP Wiring/Board

    Re: Aria Pro II LP Wiring/Board It'll be getting gold covers for the pair of pickups I've made for it, but the suggestion was to see how it looked with just the double cream, and it turns out the rings aren't cream: ...And the poker chip is black. Why do I get the feeling this is not...

    Aria Pro II LP Wiring/Board

    Hi all, I'm doing some work on a client's Aria Pro II LP, which will include removing the stock circuit board, and I'm wondering on how best to go about it; I'm tempted to snip the wiring close to their respective solder joints, rather than having to wait on the solder to melt with the iron...

    Noisy Strat Scratch Plate

    I'm gettting lots of [microphonic] noise via the scratch plate of my Peavey Predator Strat copy, and if what Google tells me is correct, there's not a great deal I can do about it without replacing it for a multi layered one :?:

    NGD... Sort Of... Ideas Solicited.

    My testing guitar/rig/doodah: Unfortunately, having waited an age for the luthier to do certain bits I don't have the confidence/tools for, I'd overlooked him surface mounting the neck and bridge (it's intended to be able to simply slide pickups in, and out under the strings for quick...

    Single Coil Strat Pups Wot I Made

    Hey all, I'd appreciate some feed back on whether the recording in the link below is of reasonable quality for listening back to a quick demo of the Strat pickups I've been making. It's reamped through my rig, with all fx off, eq at zero etc, and just a single SM57. To me it sounds a little...
