Have an Albert Lee SSS hard tail. Looking for neck and middle pickups that would match up well. Also really need them to be hum canceling.

I have fallen in love with the Seth lover pickups in my Ibanez talman, and am looking for something similar for the bridge position in my EBMM albert lee, as well as something to balance with it in the neck and middle spots. I want to stay with single coil size pickups, so I don't have to hack...

I have a "68 bassman that I would like to convert to blackface specs. I remember somewhere Lew had a really clear list of what was involved. I was wondering if some one could post that info again in this wonderful new amp forum.

I just got a used Invader, cause the price was right. I've always thought the Invader sounded too muddy, and after installing it in my Ibanez (which is quite bright) I still believe the same thing. So I want to try some pickup modification on this thing. I would like to try putting an A5 magnet...

Subway Guitars Their refret seems to be a very good deal( $100 or more cheaper than most of the good locals). I was just wanting to know if any of y'all had ever had dealings with them. I'm swapping pickups in one of their Jazz Bass copies for a friend. There are no objectionable quality...

I know, most of y'all know, that the Custom series of pickups all share the same coils, and just have different magnets. It would be cool to have a list of all the Duncan pickups that have common coils, and what are the differences otherwise(potted/not potted, allen screws etc.). I've heard a...

The question is in the title. I'm looking for something to go with a Mesa Blue Angel head. I described the tones I go for in that tone thread posted earlier. Any help would be cool. I would especially like to know if anyone has compared the Recto 2x12, and the Avatar with mixed speakers.

Does anyone know what kind of amps Paul's band was using during the Superbowl halftime show?

I've been really wanting a Tele lately, but I don't have a lot to spend. I was just wondering if any of y'all have any thoughts, on this model. It seems to be a Sam Ash exclusive (unfortunately), but the birdseye neck, abalone inlays, and stock SD Alnico II Pros, are really doing it for me. The...

Anyone tried a callaham baseplate for strat bridge pickup.http://www.callahamguitars.com/partsstr.htm

Its time for me to change some tubes again. I was wondering if y'all have some suggestions for good 12ax7's or equivalent. I would especially like to know if you've compared them, tonewise. I've heard the JJ's are kind of dark compared to others, but I'd like to know which ones are bright also...

Malden Guitars These look really cool and they are getting great reviews. They're also really cheap, for what you get.

I pretty much always use two basic types of distortion pedals. One for basic overdrive, usually some type of Tubescreamer type, and a heavier high gain sound. All my amps are single channel, non-master volume, so I kind of use this set up in the way you might use a 3 channel amp. It would be...
