I just received 7 basic A5s (magnetized- polished) from Tone Kraft on Ebay. They were shipped stuck together side by side- can I assume this won't de-magnetize them at all since they are all the exact same magnets?

I wired a Duncan Classic Stack (original one) standard: red/white together, green bare ground, black hot, and wired a DMZ 36th Ann. neck standard: black/white together, green and bare ground and red hot. When played together they seemed to give the classic skunky sound (as in wrong). So I just...

I can't locate a simple wiring diagram: Strat- 3 single coils 1 master volume 1 tone for both neck and bridge, middle pickup- no tone could someone please steer me in the right direction? thanks k

I have an H/H Strat and I use the neck p'up 95% of the time. I have a 3 switch (original Strat style), 1 vol, 1 tone. The problem is that I only want hum cancelling options. Can I wire my 3 way switch (original Strat style) to get: position 1)- Series position 2)- Parallel position 3)- any...

Try this instead- http://www.reverbnation.com/KurtKish Here is a recording of "Old Hag You have Killed Me" and Old Hag with the Money"- two Irish traditional tunes The neck pick-up is the PAF Master which I slightly degaussed to A5 in it. The bridge pick-up is a 36th Ann. Bridge (DP223) which...

Here is a recording I'm calling "Two Hags" (which is "Old Hag You have Killed Me" and Old Hag with the Money"). The neck pick-up is the PAF Master which I slightly degaussed to A5 in it. The bridge pick-up is a 36th Ann. Bridge (DP223) which I de-Aired and replaced the A5 with an A4...

I have searched degaussing so much I almost degaussed my ass of. Can I assume degaussing and A4 (using a Ceramic from a DMZ Super 3) would a) simply lower the bass, mids and highs equally or, b) lower (weaken) the bass and highs a bit, but lower the mids a bit more (somewhat scooping the...

The short of it: The slugs that are used in the 36ths (Airbuckers) are regular DMZ slugs and ARE NOT not the type which are manufactured to be thinner on the bottom. (the DMZs I've de-aired had slugs which were thinner on the bottom) I've aired and de-aired plenty of DMZs in my time. I wanted...

Here's my first recording (that I'm satisfied) since I dedicated most of my playing time to classical pieces. Thanks to Paul Gilbert for leading in this direction This one is played with a clean, lush reverb/delay sound. (I will post more with both a Crunch and Saturated tone.) please enjoy-...

I was wondering if anyone ever tried a magnet swap in an Air Norton (for the neck position of a Strat- or any guitar)? I was thinking an A3 might really improve the boomy bass end. - any thoughts on the matter?

Do A2 magnets play better with certain gauge pick-up wire? I'm thinking of swapping out the A5 to an A2 in a Dimarzio Humbucker from Hell, which I think has AWG 41 wire. It's been said that the HfH has similar specs to the DMZ Super 2 but with much lower output. For instance, what AWG is used...

I want a med/hot neck pick-up that I could also run parallel. All things being equal (same guitar), which pickup would give me more high end (when in series). My guess would be the AN. However, the JB surprised me when I put it in the neck. The lows were not overwhelming (considering it's...

Sometimes it's the simple things you can't find! I have an H/H, 1 vol 1 tone, 3 way toggle guitar. I know how to wire it the most basic way- BUT- I want to wire it so the bridge pick-up by-passes the tone pot. So, the only question I really have is- where does the hot wire from the bridge...

Which would it be- A3? A2?
