    Beer Spilled on Amp

    A couple nights ago while jamming, I managed to knock a beer that was sitting on my Fender DeVille, and it fell down into the guts of my amp. I cleaned it out pretty well and let it sit. It didn't work at first, but after it sat for a few hours it made noise, and still does so. It runs quietly...

    Helped needed in amp search

    Hi there, SDUGF, it's been awhile since I last posted, but as I need a bit of help in my search for some new gear, I figured I would come to the best place I know these questions. I'm looking for something that can give me some smooth British drive. I've in the past used an Fulltone OCD and...

    Pedal Sale - Distortion, Chorus, Delay, OD

    The Distortion+ is in 8/10 condition. Works very well, bought it a couple weeks ago, just doesn't suit me. $50 shipped The CE-5 has some pretty heavy marking, I'd give it a 6/10, but it works great. $45 shipped The Analog Delay has only been used a few times, it's nearly mint. There are very...

    Page in a Box

    Hey there, as the title suggests, I'm looking for a pedal that can get me that early Zeppelin sound(ideally somewhere between RAH and TSRTS). I'm not looking to sound exactly like Page, but I'm looking for something in that area. I'm somewhat torn between going the fuzz route or the OD route...

    Strat Neck Issue

    I've noticed this since I got my American Std. Strat, and I've decided to adress what I think is a problem. The neck is making a slight obtuse angle with the body. I'm not talking about a warp in the neck, but from the neck joint the neck begins to raise at an incline forming an obtuse angle...

    Distortion: Amps and Pedals?

    How do you get your distorted tone? With your amp or your pedals? I'm kind of curious as to what others do, I'm in a situation now where I'm in love with the cleans my Hot Rod DeVille has to offer, but the dirty channels aren't doing it for me. I'm heavily considering selling my HRD and picking...

    Voodoo Lab Micro Vibe, Boss CE-5

    The Vibe works fine, it just doesna't agree with my Fuzz Face very well. The Boss works great too, chorus just doesn't fit my needs anymore. The Vibe is in pretty new condition, it even includes the original box with warranty slip, manual, and a CD from Voodoo Lab. There's some padding...

    MIM Fender Strat

    Selling my 2004 MIM Strat. It's a great player, and compares pretty well to my American Std. I picked this up about a month ago, so I'm the second owner, but it hasn't seen much use since my USA Strat gets most of my attention. Just selling to fund an amp purchase. There's a couple points of...

    Crybaby Isn't Crying Anymore

    As the title suggests, my GCB-95 doesn't want to work. It turns on fine, but it constantly sounds like it's fully stuck on the back position. The footpedal moves around as it normally should, but it won't make any changes. I opened up the back and didn't see anything abnormal, I've tried...

    Splitting an HB in Strat position 2

    Hey guys, I'm planning on putting a JB jr or a Hot Rails in my strat, and I'd like to have the full HB in position 1 and have it split in position 2. I have an idea of how to go about this, but I just want to make sure that I'm using the right wiring diagram. Thanks!

    Texas Specials - Love or Hate?

    Hey guys, what's the thought around about the Fender Texas Specials? I'm not looking to exactly nail SRV's tone, but I think his tone his something I would use as a guide to explain how I want my strat to sound. I've been reading a lot of mixed reviews about the tone, but I've mostly read people...

    My Strat needs more Low End

    I'm looking for a set of strat pickups that can bring more fullness to my strat. I switched the Fat 50s out for 2 SSL-1s and an SSL-5, and they're too thin sounding, and did the opposite of what I wanted. I'm looking for fullness, I still want strat tone, but I want it to sound really full while...

    Middle Pickup for Strat

    I finally decided to take the shot on an American Standard Strat with a maple board(ngd post coming after Christmas), so I'm starting to think about pickups. I'm not a huge fan of the fat 50s, so I decided I'll Seymourize my strat. I'm primarily looking to get some 60s style strat tones out of...
