    Pickup height: A "failed" experiment

    Hi everyone! Today I don't come to ask something, I come to share some insights I got from an experiment. As some of you know, I own a Fender Start Jimmy Vaughan signature, loaded with a 59/Custom Hybrid in bridge and 2 ssl-1's on neck and middle positions. Overall, I'm satisfied with this...

    Help with damaged Floyd Rose bridge!!

    Hi everyone! I have a Washburn N1 model, which I had modified a year ago. Now, it has a Schaller tremolo, locking tuners and new pickups. The thing here is that the bridge was total CRAP!!! The saddles wore out really fast, one of the string blocks (and its screw) was broken for no reason at...

    Seymour Duncan JB vs DiMarzio Super Distortion

    Bridge humbucker to pair with SSL-1s on an strat

    Any tonal differences if you flip the pickup?

    I know that some DiMarzio pickups present some tonal differences when the pickup is turned around, but most of them don´t. However, what about Seymour Duncan? Does the sound change? If so, in which models?

    Should I swap my Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates neck pickup for a DiMarzio Liquifire?

    Hi everyone! I have a modified economic version of the Washburn Nuno Bettencourt signature guitar, made out of BASSWOOD, but with a MAPLE/ROSEWOOD neck/fretboard. I wanted this guitar to be a perfect axe for rock/metal, but with a touch of versatility. It formerly had a six point tremolo, but I...
