Well I've had this baby for over a year and I figured it was well over due for a quick review! This pedal was originally modded for Lew, but when I bought it John gave it the once over and tweaked a little further. The pedal now has a Fulltone pot, Fulltone inductor, tweaked unity volume...

Hi, does anyone know any Canadian guitar shops that sell Martin acoustics? Preferably shops with websites, or at least an email address? Hope someone can help!

We let the band before us use my Peavey Bandit last night and they somehow managed to blow the speaker! They were playing clean, but it turns out had turned the volume up to 8 with no speaker cab attached, and apparently the speaker didn't like that! So! Option A: I get a new speaker! I...

I've read that as a approximate rule you can work out a complimentary Pot/p'up combo by multiplying the Pick-up's DC resistance by 40... e.g.1: Vintage Staggered, DC resistance 6.5k 6.5 x 40 = 260 So by this theory 250K Pots will work well... e.g.2: '59 Model (neck), DC resistance 7.43k 7.43 x...

I need a pick-up for my Martin 000-15, preferably one that will be as faithful as possible to the natural sound. Any suggestions?

I tried out a Mesa Rect-o-verb combo on Saturday, looking for that great sound I've almost been getting from my Sansamp GT2. I had a good play with it and hated the 'Modern' mode, (way too smooth for my liking!), but loved the 'Raw' mode on full gain! I love the way it sounds kinda like...

Aloha! Ok, I'm looking for a Wah pedal with the following: - Good build & tone quality - True bypass - Step-on switching (not classic rock-forward switching) - 'Good' fixed sweep balance OR adjustable sweep Don't worry about price, I'll let my credit card worry about that! :) Thanks for...

Ok, I'm gonna build a soundproof room-within-a-room in my garage. I've seen two ways suggested to constuct the room: Method 1: WALL ACOUSTIC WOOL STUDWORK RESILIENT BAR P'BOARD*|SOUNDPROOFING MAT|P'BOARD* e.g. method 1 Method 2: WALL <gap> P'BOARD* RESILIENT BAR ACOUSTIC WOOL & STUDWORK...

Howdy! Can you recommend me some good FREE Recording/Arranging software for PC? I've tried using eJay (a friend gave it to me) but it's next to useless. Thanks in advance for your help! Kip

During Alice In Chains' Unplugged set, Layne used a vocal effect on the end of Sludge Factory. It looked like either an alternative mic or a small box that he seemed to sing through into the regular mic. Any idea what it was?

Sick of paying hundreds of pounds a year on rehearsal studios we're gonna start practicing in my garage, but we're gonna need a PA for vocals. So what would you recommend? My initial thoughts are: Kustom 80w complete PA - £190 Carvin StageMate S400 - £370 Fender Passport Deluxe PD-150 - £580...

Ok, some of my band's songs have pretty heavy riffs which kick-off the song then repeat under the verses. Obviously when the song starts the volume of the guitar has to sit just right in the live mix, but I have a voice very similarly pitched to the guitar, so when the vocal starts, even though...

Has anyone bought a custom-made wah pedal circuit board from Stuart Castledine at wah-wah.co.uk? If so, what did you think? I was thinking of buying an "Adjustable board" with Q, Mid, Gain, and Volume controls...

I want to True Bypass my Crybaby Wah, and I was thinking of getting the Torres Engineering True Bypass Kit... http://www.torresengineering.com/trubypswitfo.html ...I figure with the Torres kit at least I'll be getting decent quality parts. Is it worth it? Or shall I just try it from...

Ok, I know we're talking opposite ends of the scale here, but what do you guys think of... - George L's (high-end/price) ~ & ~ - Venom Adder (budget) ...patch leads?
