Hey all, I stupidly sold a set of Duncan LiveWire Hot for Strat pickups a few years ago and have been having a hankering for them again, found an NOS set on Reverb for what works out to over $400 in local money for me, plus shipping and probably local and import taxes, since I would likely have...

Hey guys and gals... Looking to try a Duncan TB-59. The guitar it would go in has a Floyd term on it, so I need the trembucker spaced pickup. Let me know what's out there! Thanks!

Hey all. I'm hoping someone here can help. I'm wanting to build a pedal switcher / Bypass Loop box that will allow me to use my stereo pedals. First, a bit of background for clarity: I am using a Marshall JMP-1 Preamp and Peavey Classic 50/50 Power amp for my rig these days. In the effects...

Greetings friends. I haven't been around much lately as my world has taken me away from forums in general, but I have a question and am looking for some advice. I have a guitar, a 1987/89 Ibanez Mutt of a 540P "Power" model that is quickly becoming my go-to to all kinds of tings. I primarily...

Hey guys. Anyone know where I can get my hands on some ceramic magnets? I have a JB I want to change to a triple ceramic arrangement but I can't find any online anywhere and I've used up all that I could salvage from some old pickups. I guess mostly I need the smaller ones for the outer edges...

Re: Using mini toggle as selector switch. The plan was to build a minimalist guitar. It’s an HS Strat with a single volume, and the tiny toggle fit the aesthetic, sorry about the sideways pic.

Hey all, I'm feeling a bit stumped. I putting a guitar together for a friend, it's a Strat-a-Like with a hum bucker in the bridge and a single in the neck. I have planed to and drilled to mount an On-On-On mini toggle to use as a selector switch to get either or both of these pickups...

Hey all. Does anyone know if the Duncan Distortion uses 3 magnets or just 1? I have a vintage one in my Rhoads, but I don't want to open it up to see. I like its tone compared to the JB that came out of the same guitar and was thinking to do a mag swap in the JB so I can return to guitar to its...

Hey all. I'm looking for a DiMazrio Evolution Bridge, DP159 (i.e. not EVO2), F Spaced in black or possibly Black/Cream with enough lead to be used in the bridge position of my Ibanez Saber. I have a Tone Zone, reg spaced, black to trade. It has about 10" of wire. The Saber is mahogany bodied...

Hey all. I have some speakers for sale: Qty 3: Celestion G12M-25 Greenback, 16 Ohm, Current (Chinese) Production, very low hours at low volume. Saw most of their use when I was playing on a church worship team. No even broken in yet. New, these are $125 out in the wild. These are practically...

Hey all. I have been using a Marshall JMP-1 preamp as my main tone for about 3 years now. A few days ago it bit the dust and repairing it would exceed it's replacement value. So I'm looking to replace it with something different. Problem is, I can't think of many decent rack preamps. One that...

Hey all. I'm looking to move my 1989 RG750VP. I've been getting away from Basswood guitars and spending more time with my Saber and my Strats lately. This is an amazing guitar that deserves to be played more than I have been. It's almost completely original. I have added Schaller Strap locks...

Hey all. I'm having a song dilemma that I'm hoping one of you would be willing to help out. I'm playing at a Christian youth convention in August and really want to do a particular song, but I cannot find tab for it anywhere. Not online, the book is LONG out of print and I can't find any used...

Hey guys. A few years ago when I was having a financial crisis, I sold my Peavey Millennium bass to a friend/customer of mine, George. It started life as a standard imported 5 string Peavey. It's always been a very comfortable and playable bass, especially since I am not a great bass player...

Hey all, I'm looking to get my hands on a couple of EMGs in Black. I need a humbucker, ideally a 58, but a 60 or an 85, even an 81 would be great too. And I need a Single. I'd prefer an S, but an SA would be fine too. I'm not concerned too much about the looks as long as they are not trashed...
