    Different speakers maybe?

    Hi All, Lately I've been stepping out in front of my amp during sound checks. I've noticed that once I have my amp sounding just the way I want it to on stage, once I walk out past the fronts it sounds terrible-ragged, trebley. I'm using a Marshall 1936 cab w/ one Vintage 30 and a Heritage.(Ive...

    Static has me stumped.

    Hi, I have a 2000 Les Paul Classic ebony finish. A while ago, maybe a year, I started noticing a scratchy/staticy noise whenever I pulled the guitar across my body while playing. Lately it's become worse. The worst area is the toggle switch cover screws. But just rubbing the finish on the back...

    DSL or Vintage/Modern: which one?

    Hello, I need some advice. I was all set to buy a DSL 50 when I find out about the new Vintage Modern. It'll be rather difficult for me to try the VM (i live in central Maine). So I'll probably have to wait and rely on reviews and forums like this one to help me. I already know that I like the...

    Mesa F-50 ?

    Hello, What do you all think of the Mesa F-50? I like the small size cabinet, the simplicity and the price "seems" reasonable. But how do they sound? I need an amp that can cover a lot of different types of music. Thanks, Pick

    Which P-90 for LP bridge

    Hi All, I'm trying to decide which P-90 to put in the bridge of my Les Paul. I've been using a Vintage neck and a Hot Neck in the bridge position. It's been working ok but I'm getting tired of the "chain saw" tone when I use a lot of gain. So I'm thinking either a Hot Bridge or the Custom...

    Where can I find a Gibson "rollover" bridge?

    Hi all, I'm trying to find a Gibson rollover bridge for my old Les Paul. The bridge looks just like a regular stop tail piece but with one "set screw" on either end of the bridge. Thanks.
