    FS/FT: Plush REP-3 Delay, Minty

    Mint condish Plush REP-3 Tube-voiced Delay here, never even been stepped on/engaged by foot. No Velcro ever applied. If you’re not familiar with these, they’re designed to sound like a tube driven tape delay unit. Pretty good sound if you ask me. I just have too many delays right now (if there’s...

    FS/FT: Boss PH-3 Phase Shifter

    Pretty decent phaser, just too many bells and whistles for me. Hoping to either score some cash for this thing or find something cool in a trade! Interested in other pedals, pickups (mainly passive humbuckers), etc. Whatcha got? $50 shipped Con US (PayPal gift preferred or +3.5% for fees) or...

    WTT: Gibson 490R for DiMarzio Illuminator neck

    Nickel covered Gibson 490R (Alnico 2) neck pickup for trade. Currently installed in my Les Paul as it is still in use. Full length single conductor lead (or pretty darn close to it as far as I know). Definitely more than enough for a few more installations. Looking for a black (or nickel...

    Les Paul neck pickup for "fluid" tone?

    Les Paul neck pickup for "fluid" tone? Les Paul neck pickup for "fluid" tone? Kinda random, but would anybody happen to know what neck pickup John Petrucci might have been using around the time that he released his "Rock Discipline" video? I'm pretty sure he used the Tone...

    Les Paul neck pickup for "fluid" tone?

    Not sure if this has been addressed here before, but... If I want that "liquid/fluid" type of sound out of a Les Paul in the neck humbucker (think Slash's solos on GnR's November Rain), what type of output/EQ curve, etc. should I be looking for? It would be paired up with a Custom 8 in the...

    DiMarzio Chopper & Fast Track 2: Split vs Parallel?

    Hey guys, I was just talking to Aceman about something related to this a few days ago, and... Currently I have my Strat wired up with a Chopper in the neck, Fast Track 1 middle, Fast Track 2 in the bridge. I have 2 mini switches installed, 1 wired to the neck and bridge for coil splitting, and...

    DiMarzio Fast Track 2: Does mine sound right?

    LONG POST ALERT: I'm pretty well confused at this point. Just this past weekend, I installed a full set of DiMarzios in my Strat (Chopper, Fast Track 1, Fast Track 2, 500k volume, 250k tones, neck on switch, coil split switch for neck & bridge). The Chopper is phenomenal and has me falling back...

    DiMarzio Strat-sized Humbucker pairings

    Re: DiMarzio Strat-sized Humbucker pairings Alright, I did it. Got the Chopper in the neck, Fast Track 1 middle, Fast Track 2 bridge, YJM 500k High Speed volume pot, kept the CTS 250k tone pots, coil-split switch for neck & bridge, and a "neck on" switch to give me the "7 sound Strat"...

    Would you buy this pickup?

    Re: Would you buy this pickup? Looks like this is what I will most likely end up going with. 1 mini toggle for "neck on" and 1 to split the neck & bridge. I have everything I need except 1 of the DPDT on-on toggles. However I may end up getting a 4PDT for that one instead, so I can do...

    Would you buy this pickup?

    Re: Would you buy this pickup? Question: Is this unique to the Chopper only, or all of these DiMarzio blade/rail types?

    Would you buy this pickup?

    Re: Would you buy this pickup? Oh, yes... The Chopper has arrived. And no, I didn't pay full price for it either. Now my set is complete. Reverb.com rules!
