Hey, folks, I'd like to find somebody with something cool to trade for my trans. red (wine-colored) Gibson Explorer. Among other things, I'd love a Soldano Series II preamp or Supercharger G.T.O. pedal, a Mesa 20/20 power amp or a TC Electronic G-Major. I'm also looking for '80's (USA)...

Can anyone (SD folks?) help me? I have a SD Pickup Booster, fresh out of the box, and I've tried to use it thusly: Gain knob dialled hard counter-clockwise to 6db. Resonance switch set to "0". 9v AC adapter in, power LED fully lit. I'm running my guitar into a Lehle Dual switcher and then...

Anybody have any faves beyond the usual 57?

Okay, folks... You've been given the opportunity to advertise ONE piece of gear to the guitar community at large to your heart's content. What's the one item you most want to evangelize to other players? Maybe it's the best amp you've ever used. Maybe the best guitar. Maybe it's an item so...
