First off I don't have a specific budget right now. Just asking for names to look into. When/if I ever play bass for a gig it's either through a Mesa M6 Carbine or my buddy's Fender Supet Bassman. The Mesa is currently in my possession but it's doesn't do quiet very well haha. I generally stick...

Re: G&L Tribute Legacy

A couple months ago I bought one of these things with the intention of just using it as a beater. This particular guitar happened to be the guitar center/musicians friend mahogany body flamed maple topped variety. I think I paid 299.99 for it. Imagine my surprise when it turns out to be one...

Ordered this on a whim, to try something different in my horizon (maple bolt on ash body rosewood board). I honestly don't really know what I want for this guitar, just know I wanted to try pups I haven't used before, so I'm hoping for a bit of luck haha.

In the interest of trying something different with this particular guitar (ESP Horizon maple bolt on neck ash body TOM) I'm curious what you might have to say about these sets in that guitar. Specifically chosen because they are what I have...lol. Thanks.

I'm thinking about eventually looking into distortion pedals, maybe even buying one, in order to add a little bit of variety to my dirt sounds. Right now all I'm really asking is what kind of pedals you all like (that would be useful for hard/heavy rock, into metal). Thanks

I've had this guitar for quite awhile, and I love it. However, I very rarely play it, and never in a band type setting. It's decidedly a metal guitar, (currently have a set of blackouts in there) and the bands I've been a part of it just doesn't fit. When I play it on my own I do love the feel...

And I think I'm in love. I've been meaning to try them forever but never got around to it. I was at my local GC demoing an EVH 5150 III (which has me questioning my choice of amps as well). Picked up an epi slash lp and proceeded to destroy my idea of what I go for in pickups. I've found that I...

Specifically the blue/gold and gold/gold. A buddy of mine owes me some money (90$) and wants to give me these pups instead. They're supposedly brand new never been opened. Now I'm tempted to agree for the mere fact of experimenting but I literally know nothing about these pickups, so any...

Is there such a thing? Or something similar at the least? I love how a pickup like that sounds in a guitar like mine (alder body maple neck) but I'm not sure I want to cut out the body in order to fit a humbucker. Part of what drew me to this tele in the first place is the look. And I'd really...

I've got an old ESP horizon that I just got new pups for. Ive got an invader for the bridge to give a test run with, and a custom made (by a friend of mine) pup for the neck. Assuming the neck pup is color coded as a Duncan, I would like to wire it up like esp does their 5 way switches on two...

A buddy of mine just gave me, literally just said "here, take it, I don't want it," a Mexican j bass. The catch being, it needs to be completely rewired, new pups, and a new bridge. I already have the bridge covered but I really know next to nothing about bass pickups, I isually play guitar and...

Anyone have an idea what kind of pups may have come stock in this guitar? I tried looking through the esp site archive but I wasn't able to find what I wanted to know. Idk if that's just me missing it or something else entirely. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yay or nay? I've never tried it in this guitar and I have one laying around. Mahogany body maple top. Maple neck zr trem.

Mahogany body bolt on maple neck fixed bridge. I've been planning on putting d activators into it whenever I find something for the guitar that currently had my d activators in it. However I've suddenly (like 5 minutes ago) started wondering about the DD. I love it in my ec1000, and what I...
