Hey guys ! I plan on changing pickups on a Gibson Flying V Pro I own (so full-on mahogany body and neck with rosewood board), I want to make it a high output one (currently stock classic'57/burstbucker 3 set) so I'm leaning toward the Distorsion set, especially since the guitar has a stock...

My 2 main guitars are a Les Paul Classic and an SG Standard. I always prefered the LP, although often favored the SG because it's more comfortable when playing in band situation. Now that I'm only playing at home, I can really hear the differences between the 2 guitars, and sound wise alone...

Hey guys ! Always found the Firebird a very sexy and attractive guitar, especially the original Gibson model (fav finish :Blue Mist), but when I tried it, I found the neck to be "very long" if you know what I mean (in the seated position, I guess standing there's no issues) and don't care much...

Hi guys ! Until now, I've been plenty happy with my pedalboard which was in the same configuration for a while. There was just a little space in it that I decided to fill with ordering a Volume Pedal, Boss FV30H in this case (all the other ones that are not mini, are too big). My plan is to...

Hey guys ! I've been obessed with getting a P90 guitar for quite a while. I like the P90 sound, and although many consider it sits somewhere in the middle between humbucker and single-coil Strat sound, I agree with this but to me P-90 it's fat enough it's actually leaning a bit more toward...

Hey guys, I don't know if there's a rule of thumb with such a thing, but what can you expect when you take an A2 magnet pickup like a Burstbucker 3, a Slash, a Pearly Gates or whatever and swap the magnet for an A8 one ? I'm asking since it's being said A8 is supposed to have the sweet treble...

Hi ! I went to a store for trying some pedals this morning (and eventually bought a flanger by the way) and I've seen Gibson Les Paul Classic Antique Burst 2007 limited edition with P90 (like this one ...

Hi people ! I just bought a Flying V Pro 2016 Ebony (like this : http://www.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/2016/USA/Flying-V.aspx). Very light guitar, loaded with Classic 57 in the neck and Burstbucker 3 in the bridge. Nothing wrong with those A2 pickups, but I prefer to turn this axe...

Hi guys ! My pedalboard is currently equiped with the following pedals : Front : Morley Wah-Maxon OD9-MXR Phase 90 Loop : Boss CH1-Boss DD7 I play Gibson guitars through Marshall JVM205H. Since the Helix HX came out, I'm really tempted to buy that one and use it for replacing my entire...

Hi guys ! I've got a Les Paul Classic currently loaded with Slash Alnico II Pro set. The neck Alnico II Pro will stay in place but I'd like to try a new pickup in the bridge (not that I dislike Slash bridge, it's more for the sake of changing the scenario for a while and see which I prefer...

Hi guys ! I'm about to try the V30/G12T75 thing in a Marshall 4*12 1960A cab. Obviously, I know about this X pattern thing and that's what I'm aiming to do. Having said that, I wonder how other options would work ? I guess having G12T75 on bottom and V30 on top would make the G12T with...

Hi guys ! I always been an humbucker/Gibson guitar kind of guy and lately, I've been thinking about getting at some point a Strat to change the scenario a bit. Now I'm hesitating with 2 options : -either go with a S/S/S config, then I'll have single coils on every position and the guitar...

Ok guys ! I've never had a P90 loaded guitar and as an humbucker guy, looks like a Prail would be a good choice to have a "best of both world" kinda pickup and more important, an introduction to the P90 world. I have a 2013 70's tribute SG in which I'd like to put those Prails. There's...

Hi guys ! I have an old Jackson JJ made in Japan (LP double cut shape, alder body, maple neck, rosewood board) that used to satisfy me back in the days, but since some years I play on Gibson Les Paul and SG and my Jackson now sounds muddy, muffled and overall lacks clarity, precision and even...

Hey guys ! Like many others, my Gibson guitars got PCB electronics inside and therefore quick connect pickups. For the first 2 guitars like that (1 LP and 1 SG), my luthier bypassed the system by soldering on the pots the Slash set for the LP and the Seth Lover/Hybrid 59 Custom into the SG...
