I am in need of a 5 way switch that will fit in the tiny cavity of an Ibby ironlabel s series HSH. There is about 1 1/8" of clearance from the floor of the cavity to the cover. Anybody know where I can find a factory part or have suggestions?

After deciding I want to be a Marshall guy again, I spent some time checking them out. It's been several decades since I had one. Finally narrowed it down to something new: JVM and DSL. Liked them both VERY much. As it turns out I am a Marshall guy. That sizzle is in my head and my blood. I...

Anybody own one and have an opinion? Played one the other day and really liked it. Seemed a little trebly, but it wasn't my rig so maybe not the guitar. How different from mahogany is walnut?

Honeymoon is finally over with my les paul. Gonna try some mag swaps to get the 490t and 498r to play nicely together. I'm going to get an A8, A3, UOA5, and maybe some others to play with. My question is this: What is the difference, tone wise, between the rough, smooth and polished magnets? I...

I need to stop looking at Craigslist. Don't know what he means about 6v6's and el84's, looks like a 60 watt red stripe to me. Great price though. Sweet cab, though it needs an EV or 2. http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/msg/5232440425.html

After 25 years of changing strings with a pair of vice grips, I decided to fix up the JT-6 bridge on my Charvel 88 Custom. Replaced the bridge string lock screws with with nonstripped/smashed/mutilated replacements from Dave at Frets on the Net. Awesome guy and a great and unique source for...

I've been intrigued by this guitar for a while. I have yet to find an example to examine/play. Anybody know anything about them? Are they weight relieved? Rosewood or baked compost/misc. wood fingerboard?

Keeping Portland weird I guess. I think I want this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hovercraft-amps-Dwarvenaut-Art-Series-Jenny-Jo-Oakley-Cadaverina-De-Caffa-/331347615702

First Post! I have a Charvel 88 custom that I need a new pickup for. I was thinking about a 78 custom shop. The guitar is mahogany with a rosewood finger board. I want a moderate output full spectrum pickup that cleans up well, but can roar a bit too. The guitar is older and fairly warm...
