    What's factory wiring of HSS Strat?

    So how does an HSS Strat come wired? What is position two wired as? Is it full humbucker and single or is the humbucker tapped (the slug, no?) along with the single coil? I want to know what's standard procedure here.

    hum canceling prevention

    I'll be buidling an H/S/S strat with a Blacktop Fender body. I like the large pickup cavity that allows for getting fancy with pickup choice. Anyone know if the added space will affect tone/resonance at all for better or worse? Copper tinning suggested or does the paint job in this following...

    Good HSS coil tap?

    What are some good bridge humbuckers to coil tap in a HSS configuration? Maple neck 60th Anniversary MIM Strat will be used. Currently Tex-Mex in all three positions.

    HSS coil tap JB?

    I love the JB in my other guitars. I'm thinking of installing a full-sized JB with a coil tap in my 60th Anniversary Mexican Strat. I am equally as in love with the twang of the bridge position single coil and its smooth split position. Needless to say, I want to have my cake and eat it, too...

    Weird out of phasiness

    Soldered a Jazzbucker into the neck position of my Squier Super-Sonic recently. I think I got too stoned from the solder, because I ended up messing the whole deal up. I even screwed up the bridge JB that has been in place for six years. So...I took it to my local luthier, I pay up, he says...

    Those dang screws!

    Okay... ordered a duncan jazz pup used, didn't come with screws. Squier mounting screws are too fat (440 measurement). AND...the hardware store guy DROPPED one of them into the crack in the floor. SO... where can I order three (3) mounting screws for humbuckers!?!?!? LMFAO that this is so hard!!

    Name That Mystery Pup

    I found a mystery pickup in my basement today. It was given to my brother about ten years ago. I vaguely remember being told it was a either a DiMarzio or Gibson/Epiphone. There are no brand markings anywhere. Here's the pictures. Help me solve this mystery...

    What's comparable to Jazz neck pu?

    Looking for a cheaper option for a neck pickup, to compliment a bridge JB in a Squier Super-Sonic (rosewood fretboard, basswood body/reversed Jazzmaster shape). Possibly other brands than Duncan (keyword: cheaper) It's a dual humbucker guitar. I like to play some Chicago blues or Clapton style...

    JCM900 + KT77s

    Just replaced the old GTEL34s with JJKT77s in my JCM900 4100 model. So...awesome. A little less driving punch but it's compensated with a more chimey, articulate tone. There's also a ton more head room on the clean channel, making it a lot more useful. I'm pretty happy.

    JCM900 tube troubles

    The tubes in my Marshall JCM900 (Groove Tubes) are about 8 years old and HEAVILY used. Just the other day I realized I left the amp on by accident for a few hours (D'OH!). Today, when I clicked it on from standby the tubes started humming like crazy through the speaker. I got scared so I shut...

    Vox Cambridge 30 demo

    Was about to bid on one on ebay the other night, thank god I didn't. I found one and demo'd it today before buying an old Traynor 15 watt. I can't believe VOX put their name of that crap made by Korg. It's lacking all of that VOX soul and character and way over priced at around $350 used. I've...

    New Amp Day!! Vintage!!

    Just picked up a 70's traynor ts-15. For under $120, it's the loudest 15 watt with KILLER breakup on this one channel beast! I finally found a cheap, small amp with equally awesome dirty and clean. here's a pic of another one I found online...

    broken tailpiece! D'OH!

    I have this guitar: http://halifax.kijiji.ca/c-ViewAdLargeImage?AdId=46801305&img=http://kijiji.ebayimg.com/i11/02/k/000/79/ca/4c56_18.JPG?set_id=1C4000 It's made by "Talent", a Gibson/Baldwin student guitar. It's a solid copy of an LP Junior, except for the wraparound tailpiece that has...

    My Dream Amp...

    My dream amp would have the overdrive of a Vox and the cleans of a Fender. Does ... this .. exist... in any combination of tubes + amp or anything? Right now, I'm on my wits end with my JCM900 -- terrible gain clarity, and dark muddy cleans.
