Hi Guys! So i have 2 late-model Toronados before Fender discontinued them. They have a Gibson style bridge, 24.75" scale length, alder bodies, maple neck/rosewood fingerboards and dual humbuckers. I'm going to swap the pickups in them, and was wondering if you guys had any input? I generally...

Hey guys! I just got a Schecter Corsair (which i love so far), that's pretty much like a Gibson ES-339. So it's a semi-hollow, maple body, mahogany neck, ebony board. I actually really dig the rock tones (i use it for punk/rock, as well as clean stuff), but i wanna replace the Duncan Designed...

Hey folks! Haven't been around in a while, but i have a couple guitars that i'm not sure what pickups to throw in, so i figured i'd pop back. ;-) I got 2 Schecter Stargazers, which are basically their 006 model with a retro (kinda Rickenbacker) look. They both have ash bodies, maple necks and...

Okay, so long story short i was going to get an American Tele as i wanted to put dual humbuckers in it for a fun project. On the Fender site they say that all the standard and deluxe American Tele's are already HSH routed, but this doesn't seem to be the case unless i'm missing something. Like...

Anyone compared the 498t and Custom 5? If so, any opinions on which one you like better and why? Looking at putting something like this in an alder bodied guitar with a maple neck and rosewood board.

Hey folks! I have a strat-like guitar with a semi-chambered mahogany body, 24.75" scale, maple bolt-on neck and rosewood board. It has a H/H configuration, and i'm looking at replacing the bridge pup. For moderately heavy rock (think Isis, Cult of Luna, Tool, Failure) what your...

Okay folks- So i just got a new Amer. Standard Tele in trade. While i've always liked Tele looks, i've been more of a rocker. So i'm gonna "rockify" this Tele and i'm looking for some input. Basically i'm torn. While it is currently in standard Tele configuration with 2 single-coils, it is...

Okay folks, so i played a Tele the other day and fell in love with it. Only issue is being a standard tele, it has a single coil bridge and neck. Now i play primarily heavier music, so i was curious for those who've tried them, how do the hot rails sound in these? Does it beef them up at all...

So i have a Schecter C-1 that came stock with a '59 in the neck and a Custom Custom in the bridge, and while i really like the '59 i'm still not sure on the Custom Custom. So for heavier, articulate distorted tones, what would be other options for the bridge? The guitar is a neck-thru with a...

Got a Hagstrom Ultra Swede, and it has a fixed bridge, baswood body/flamed maple top and maple neck. I'm looking to change the pickups. I play primarily heavier rock and some metal, with cleans thrown in here and there. Tuning usually standard or drop d, c would be the absolute lowest. I have an...

Have another project i'm working on, and i want to put some new pups in an American Tele HH. It has an alder body, maple neck/rosewood board. Basically i'm looking for something in the bridge with a good heavy tone and sustain, and the neck something that is nice for leads but can clean up as...

Okay, so i'm doing a "project" on this start which i love, it has a mahogany body, humbucker/single/single pickup configuration, and a maple neck w/rosewood fingerboard. I'm using this for stuff from heavy rock to alternative. I'm doing a little routing work and putting a Fernandes Sustainer in...

Okay, one more to throw at you folks... I just got an Ibanez FR1620 in a trade, and want to change from the stock pups but this isn't your average Ibanez in that the body is ash. It's got the Wizard maple/walnut neck and rosewood fretboard, fixed bridge and 25.5" scale length, HH...

Hi everyone! My name is Daniel, and I hate to ask a question on my first post, but i've been lurking around here for some time as i've used a Duncan set in 2 of my guitars so far and had a question for my new guitar. I recently got an Ibanez SZ4020FM (discontinued model), and the specs are as...
