Hey guys, I've got a 2 conductor bridge pickup in my faithful old Schecter. The pickup that came out of it was a 4 conductor so I've got a push pull pot open for something. I was hoping you guys might have some ideas. The guitar is a thick, chewy dark guitar. I have a pickup in the bridge now...

Since noticing the pics on my review didn't have a good shot of the guitar afterwards, here it is. Very happy with both the sound and look of my Strat now. Couldn't help myself for putting the Billy G sticker on the pickguard. It will come off easy enough.The fret buzzing that comes with...

So I wanted something new for the bridge position of my Strat. And I thought to myself how can you go wrong with a Seymour Duncan/Billy Gibbons approved Pickup? I have waited a bit before sharing this as I wanted a minimum of a couple of weeks with it and some serious screwdriver time. I...

Hello all, I have an American Special Stratocaster with a Wilkinsin V100 trem and it seems like whatever adjustment I make the g string goes sharp when I use the trem. I have tried having the aft of the bridge 1/8" out from the body (everything stayed in tune that was except for the G, but the...

Now the hard part: pickup is here but the new covers and knobs aren't. Now I gotta make myself wait til they arrive to install this because I'm not a big fan of taking Strats apart lol.

Still in love with my Epiphone (inspired by Gibson) Firebird. Realistically probably the closest I'll ever get to a Gibson Firebird. Any if you out there with Firebirds that have the mini humbuckers ever feel an SG vibe? When I plug in to my drive channel (modified Marshall/Friedman BE...

Now the waiting begins. I also ordered black strat knobs, switch tip and pickup covers so I'll have the black on white pickguard thing happening.

Has anyone got a Red Devil yet? Opinions? I'm wondering just from looking at the difference between the Pearly Gates DC resistance and the Red Devil DC resistance.

Hello all. I was looking into hotter output pickups for a Firebird and ran across this pickup being mentioned SM-2. Are those still in production?

I've had the MS-3 for about 3-4 weeks now and it just keeps getting better the longer I use it and understand it's capabilities better. NO amp sims (didn't want any), but has effects, 3 pedal loops, control jacks for expression pedal and to change your amp's channels, MIDI controller, and all...

Hello all, As I get settled in to Firebird land the idea of trying a humbucker in the bridge position has already struck me a few times. I also would like to try it without routing out for a full humbucker, so I was thinking of a single coil size humbucker (I'm lookin' at you Red Devil) in a...

Have any Forum-ites played a Slash Firebird? If so, what was your opinion?

Hi everybody, After years of hard tailing my Strat with a Wilkenson VS100 I've decided to let her float again (within reason). Can anyone inform me on the finer points of adjusting the pivot poles to lower the entire bridge? It could easily go down another 1/8th of an inch. Thanks in advance...

I believe they are 3/4" This is just slightly smaller than a 1936. Marshall 1936 29.5" x 23.6" x 12" Sourmash 1936 30" x 20" x 12" I like how it can do the amp stand thing so easy. (No idea how bold text got turned on lol).

New Cabinet Day! Thanks to Bob at Sourmash Cabs. I love the look of the Origin cabs but not the build. So I got a 1936 style cab made with the same grill cloth etc. Also the first time I've had v30s and I'm loving them!!
