    Dimarzio Illuminator Bridge Alternative

    I've had the Illuminator set in my PRS SE Floyd Custom 24 for a few years now. Good for the most part, but want to try a different bridge pup. The main thing I don't like: the notched mids, cocked wah, upper mid spike, vocal "aww" sound, however you want to describe it, but you get the idea...

    Diezel VH4 Pedal---Does It Measure Up?

    Does this one live up to the hype? I know it's based on the VH4's channel 3, like the AMT D2. I would imagine the Diezel comes closer, while costing more. Any opinions out there, other than buying the actual amp? I understand a pedal only gets you in the ball park.

    Diezel VH4 Pedal and AMT Electronics D2

    I was about to pull the trigger on AMT's D2, and stumbled upon Diezel's VH4 Pedal. I understand that no pedal is identical to the amp it emulates, but reasonably close is good enough for me. Has anyone compared these two, and how similar are they to the actual VH4's channel 3?

The 3 I'm considering are the following: Fulltone Wah Pot, Chase Tone Tru iCar, and CTS McCon-O-Pot 2. I do want it to have the...

    Mogami Gold or Lava Cable Clear Connect 2?

    I'm trying to decide between a Mogami Gold and Lava Cable Clear Connect cable to run from my guitar to the first pedal in my chain (usually my Decimator G String). The length would be either 18' for the Mogami, or 15' for the Lava. I know these are both good quality, but can anyone out there...

    Pegasus vs Perputual Burn vs Illuminator

    I'm really torn between the Pegasus/Sentient and (DiMarzio) Illuminator combos for my PRS SE Floyd Custom 24. Then, to complicate things, I stumbled onto the Jason Becker Perputual Burn bridge pickup---I assume it would also pair well with the Sentient. The Pegasus and PB both seem very...

    Vox V848 Mod Question

    I recently got a killer deal on a used Vox V848 Clyde McCoy reissue ($80, near mint condition, with the carrying bag). It works fine, and I like the overall tone & sweep, although I realize there are differences compared to a vintage Clyde. I don't really want to get a "build a Clyde" kit---this...
