Re: Middle pickup on/off in series with a 3way toggle. Here's my thought. Here's what I currently have: Here's Brian May's wiring: Can I throw the middle pickup circuit from #2 into #1 to make:

I'm having a hard time finding schematics for the specific wiring I am hoping to do, so I figured I'd come back to the old source of all my information on the subject. Here's the situation: I have a telecaster that has a middle pickup route that I haven't used in about a decade. I've had it...

For a Warmoth LPS I put together a few years ago, I'd gotten a pickguard blank and cut out a custom design. I plan on painting the guitar, and would really like a blue pearloid (or pearl, not sure if there's a difference) pickguard for it. My problem is that a) I don't want to go through the...

I have a Bigsby B700, and got a Chet Atkins arm for it. The only problem: I have no idea how to take the original arm off. Has anybody done this? I can find plenty of resources that tell me the arm can go on any Bigsby, but I can't find anything that actually says how you take them off...

I have a 50watt plexi-style amp. It has the usual 4 inputs; 2 volumes with 2 inputs per volume. The first volume is bright, the second volume is dark. I never use the second volume/set of inputs. I was wondering if it would be possible to somehow convert that for use of a reverb. If a tank...

I've been wanting to do some touchup work on my platinum Gibson LP Studio, but I can't find info on what actual paint shade or pms color it is. Does anybody have any info?

I saw an on/off/on switch, and I was wondering what kind of applications that could have with a guitar. If I understand it correctly, does it basically work the same as a 3-way switch, except the middle position is off? In other words, could I wire it so that the 1st position is the bridge...

Alright, I need some advice. I've always gone for more classic rock tones in my guitars, but now I'm trying to get something a little edgier. I'm reworking my tele to handle some harder things. As far as pickups go for it (based soley on the fact that these are the ones I have that aren't...

Hey everybody. I've collected quite a few pedals over the years. As far as distortion pedals go, I have a TS808, Guv'nor, Blues Driver, and DS-1. While each one has it's own character, they really all do the same general thing. I figured I'd look around and see if there's a mod out there to...

Alright, so I've stripped and repainted my guitar, and now it's time to name her. I was originally planning to just have a custom truss rod cover, but I figured... I already repainted the entire guitar, why not go all the way with it and put the name across the headstock, like Les Paul did...

I've been trying to find where I can just have a basic amp logo made, but I'm having a hard time. Everything either requires massive order sizes or artwork. All I want is to be able to make a Marshall-style logo. I don't even care what the lettering is like, I just want a name in white...

Hey guys, I picked up a Squier Esprit about a year and a half ago to have as a backup to my Les Paul, and also to use as an experimental guitar to practice refinishing, etc. I've stripped it down, repainted it, and am now ready to start reassembling it from the ground up. I'm not sure which...

I'm not sure which forum this should be going in, but I figured this seemed as good a choice as any. I'm looking for a good hand held routing tool. I'm getting into a little project where I'll be adding a pickup spot, as well as adding an extra cavity in the back for the extra knobs to come...

I've had a Fender Dual Showman Reverb that I got off ebay for about 6 years now. It's a silverface, the guy said he thought it was from somewhere in the early 70's. It had some issues, most prominently a very noticeable clicking noise, as well as it being cosmetically beat to heck. The tolex...

Have you ever had to completely change the way you looked at the guitar world? Find that one guitar that just makes you question all you've held true? I recently picked up a Squier Esprit off ebay for extremely cheap, because I thought it looked cool. I was anticipating it being just another...
