    WTB PRS Dragon pickups!!

    I'm looking for the originals found in late 80's/early to mid 90's Custom 22's. Can trade for whatever few cheap pedals I may have or cash. Let me know what's up! We can hopefully work something out. :)

    Operate wah pedal remotely: Is it possible?

    My scenario: I'm finishing up my rack setup and am now at the point where I need to decide what to do about my wah situation. Generally I don't like wah but use it occasionally, but whatever. My favorite sounding wah pedal I've found is actually the Dunlop Bass Wah. However, my ultimate goal...

    I wish to fatten up my Gus 600

    Before I begin, guitar specs for those unfamiliar with this axe: Alder body Flame Maple top Maple set-thru neck Rosewood fretboard 22 frets Original Floyd Rose tremolo Distortion bridge pickup '59 neck pickup 1 volume knob mini-switch used to toggle split modes The guitar itself rocks in...

    No output after pickup install/body mod

    Get this.. I gutted out the old pickups from my Charvel Fusion Deluxe last week and stuck in a new passive pickup without any problems and liked the results. I decided to buy a stacked 'bucker for the neck slot (1 hum bridge, 1 single neck) and it wound up being too large for the original rout...

    Would the Seymour Duncan boys make me a 7 string Full Shred??

    I'm curious as hell about these thingies. I jammed on an Ibanez RG2160 (which has a single TB-10 and has the same physical features as my two 7 stringers) through my rig, more or less (JSX head w/ Mesa Recto 4x12 cab) earlier tonight. Holy crap, I'm in love...with TONE!!! Again...Hhehehe...

    I came across an old school pack of D'Addario strings..

    You know, before they went all hippy-like and used all that environmentally friendly packaging stuff. It's like digging up fossils or something. :eek: Is there any value left in these old packs?

    PC based oscillocopes: are they worth it?

    I've been curious about oscilloscopes in general as well as biasing amps lately. While interwebnet searching, I came across some PC based items that seem promising, both in functionality and affordability. Does anyone have experience with these? Are there any other recommendations out there?

    Controlling JSX amp head with a GT-8

    Is this feat possible? Would I have to go the route of the Axess Electronics CFX-4 and basically control my JSX via MIDI? Will the GT-8 allow this? Has anyone attempted this before?

    Who wants to help me pick a set of pickups for my Fusion?

    Yes, my Charvel Fusion Deluxe, with the somewhat highly coveted all maple neck!!! :D It's time for me to pull the EMG's out of this thing and give it a major revival in tone. Those unaware of the Fusion look here for specs: poplar body maple neck/fretboard original floyd rose 1 bridge HB, 1...

    Only three of my four pour tubes seem to be burning

    What in the hell is going on here? Oh, this is a Peavey JSX I'm dealing with here. I noticed this problem about ten minutes ago while I was on the phone with someone. This is bumming me out. :( EDIT: damn typos...power tubes. It's supposed to be power tubes in the thread title.

    My NS-2 is killing everything

    And I do mean everything. All I have is guitar --> NS-2 --> JSX. Nothing else. When the NS-2 is on, it completely kills any amount of balls I have. When it's off, it's all good. I thought the Roland battery that came with the pedal was just bad, so I pitched and replaced it..same results...

    Any idea what the impedence on Marshall 1960's carb speakers are?

    I'm too lazy to open my own cabinet up. What are they, 16 ohms?

    Who can provide a better floyd rose: Carvin or Warmoth?

    Their 7 string tremolos are pretty much the same price, only Carvin doesn't supply the locking nut (which is no big deal since I'm wishing to only replace my tremolo anyway). Neither of the two appear to be originals, just liscensed copies. So in true pissing contest fashion, which company...

    Has anyone replaced their Lo-Pro tremolos with original Floyd Roses?

    This will pretty much apply to the Ibanez guys out there. I don't like my Lo-Pro Edge tremolos. They can't hold their tune for crap. I want original floyd roses on these guitars. Can the two be swapped without any required modifications? I'm looking to do this with my two 7 string Ibanez...

    Major GAS attack here (within half an hour)

    Major notes: - guitar on ebay I desire - it would make an excellent backup to my main axe - I am saving towards my relocation campaign that I will execute in the near future The price isn't that bad right now. However, I do have my limits. Your thoughts?
