I bought two sets of pickups for builds I was doing then cancelled the builds. The sets are: Custom Custom trembucker, and Alnico II Pro neck. I'll sell both sets for $200 or one set for $115. Shipping $10 for all, $7 for one set.

I like the sound of the Hybrid on computer speakers but haven't heard one in the flesh. I've had 59 necks and they're Ok but would like something with a bit more attitude, without losing clarity.

I have a Warmoth Velocity body: transparent red on alder, routed for 2 humbuckers and a Wilkinson tremolo bridge. The bridge comes with the body and inserts are already installed for this bridge (bridge is in black). The neck is rosewood on birdseye maple, Warmoth style 3+3 headstock, 24-3/4"...

I'm particularly interested in hearing from anyone with experience using Pyramid's 12 string sets, but I'd like to hear about whatever you all are using.

I want to get a good single coil sound out of a dual Humbucker guitar; so I am thinking about a coil tap on the bridge and maybe the neck pup too. Specifically, the single coil sound I really would like to get close to in the bridge is a Duncan Broadcaster. What bridge pickup would be best for...

I've decided on black hardware, and a pau ferro fretboard with black trapezoid fret marker inlays. If you were limited to these colors, which would you go with - fire engine red, royal blue, candy yellow, olympic white, or jet black?

This is a Warmoth Velocity body and Warmth-design neck; Custom Custom Trembucker and Alnico II Pro; mini Schaller locking tuners; Wilkinson trem; and I think it all went together very nicely.

Guitar straps from Original Fuzz are a major discovery for me. I love nice straps - and these are the coolest ones I've found yet. They make less expensive (but very nicely done) seatbelt and canvas straps, but their Collections are where the really nice stuff resides. These straps are made in...

These are sort of unique. I purchased them as New Old Stock chassis' (unused, and without cabinets or speakers). All I know is that they were made before Fender stopped production on the all-tube Champs in 1982 - so they are probably late 70s or early 80s vintage Silverface units. I built them...

My Pedaltrain Metro 16 with hard case arrived today. I just finished putting the board together with it that I've been planning around my H&K Tube Rotosphere. The Rotosphere is an exact fit on the board, and leaves no room to spare at all in the case... but it fits like a glove. It's almost like...

When I did my first Warmoth build I didn't really know what I was doing, and used a regular sized Screamin' Demon with a vintage Strat sized bridge - so the string spacing is wider than the pickup pole pieces. Does someone know if the adjustment & mounting screws are in the same positions...

I love my Hughes & Kettner Tube Rotosphere, and I had it on my big stereo board with 12 other pedals. But that board was just too big to take anywhere, and I didn't use most of the effects in combination anyway. So I decided I needed a smaller, simpler stereo setup (with the Rotosphere being the...

I really like this pickup, and I have a guitar with one of them in the neck position (it sounds great at the neck - way different than in the bridge position). My question is: would another Demon in the bridge pair up well with it? I know this might sound like an obvious "yes", but I'm wondering...

I have a Screamin' Demon for the bridge, as this is one of my favorite Humbuckers. What Strat type pickups would be good with the Demon for neck and middle? I'm not really a high output kind of guy, so vintage or moderate output levels would suit me best (and the Demon isn't a high output...

The new premium line of picks from Gravity Guitar Picks just started shipping, and I have a few. They come in most of the same shapes and sizes as the regular Gravity acrylic picks, and they come in 3 different thicknesses - 1mm, 1.5mm and 2.5mm. Compared to the acrylic ones, these have less...
