I'm looking for a Kustom K200A-4 guitar amp head. It'll have 16 knobs with effects like "Harmonic Clipper", "Selective Boost", "Reverb" and "Tremolo". I'm interested in just about any color or condition, dead or alive. K200A-2, A-3, or B-4 would be of interest as well. Thanks!

I just got my P-90s tonight and put them in my Les Paul Deluxe. The neck pickup looked a little goofy because it sat so low. I shimmed it up with some dense foam so it's about even with the pickgaurd. The bridge pickup I also shimmed that if I go any higher you'll start to see the bottom of...

Is it possible to wire a telecaster with a 4-way switch so the extra position would yield the Esquire "dark" tone preset. I searched like crazy on Google. I found a few people who have asked, but couldn't get any answers. ******************************************** I THINK I got it! It...

Does anyone know a source for the control knobs that gibson used on the 1968-197? Les Paul Customs. They look like Blackface Fender amp knobs. I know they use them on the Angus Young SG...

Does anyone have a wiring diagram of how essentially throw the Esquire/'52 Tele cap setup in to a standard Tele using a 5-way switch. I believe schematic 2S39 at http://www.geocities.jp/dgb_studio/tlmod_e.htm has exactly what I would like to do, but I am not good schematics. Also, will a 5-way...

New Les Paul Deluxe showed up today. :dance: The bridge pickup looks funny though. It almost looks backwards, but the best I have is anecdotal experience with regular humbuckers. Does anyone out there with actual Les Paul Deluxe experience know if this is okay?

Should I have any reservations about having a nitro finished guitar sent in the winter? I was thinking about getting a new LP Deluxe Goldtop, but I'm worried about winding up with a crazed finish or other problems. Lately, the highs have been in the 20's lows near 0. I know it's wise to wait...

Does anyone have any reccomendations on good books for valve amps? The biggest electronics project I've ever done was dropping in a set of Seth Lovers, 500K pots, Orange Drops and 50's wiring on my Les Paul Standard. :grumble: Pretty lame I know, but it came out looking and sounding better...

Well after getting talked into some Seth Lovers, Orange Drops, and 500k pots for my '97 LP standard, I'm starting to look towards dumping the Nashville Tune-O-Matic. Some quick measurements against my '74 told me that I will need different studs to pull this off. I found some at Stew-Mac , but...

I'm sure you probably get these questions from new people all the time. I have a '97 Les Paul Standard that I've owned since new and is completely stock. It plays like a dream, but is somewhat lacking in tone. I feel the level of output to be somewhat excessive and the tone rather...
