    Invader-Distortion: opposite orientation.

    My Invader set and my Distortion set magnets have the opposite orientation. I tested it with a spare magnet. So it is not possible mix the sets following the schematics, I thought all bridge and neck Duncan pickups would have the same orientation. I bought them new and I have only opened the...

    Which cheap wood is the heaviest?

    There is a beginner-pack 11 years old asian strat copy that is heavier than any of my guitars, even a copy P-bass very heavy. The wood seems hard and clear. Is it possible they made it all maple? what else? iron?

    This guitar is the craziest thing!

    53 frets per octave! :scared: Invented by a man from Uruguay following Pithagoric amd Ptolemaic theories. I want to see somebody playing this.

    Advice for a bedroom closed back metal amp or direct recording device?

    Well, as my damn direct recordin Demonizer has blown out again, I am looking for one substitute. I like thrashy crunchy passive humbucker metal sounds, the demonizer sounded pretty good but it is a pain. I do not know very much about small amps. I cannot have a big one now. I have found I only...

    My Demonizer pedal STOPPED WORKING!

    EDIT: It was just the adapter. Not its fault at all. It was connected to a 133V source instead 120V. Replaced by an euro one. This damn thing has failed twice with almost no use. The first time was repaired under warranty (a faulty diode). Is it possible that a tube has failed (it uses 2...

    What is your opinion about the Peavey Transtube thing?

    I have a Peavey 212 Special and I do not like using that tube simulator knob at all. It cancels a lot of treble and most of bass, and makes the sound less responsive to my ears. I like it just for some cleans. Any of you find this feature nice? Is it me and I just prefer a solid state tone? I...

    Expensive pickups in cheap guitars?

    What do you think about that? I think expensive pups will not improve enough to worth the change, but not sure: I have a beautiful and comfortable LTD F-50 collecting dust because sounds almost dead. It also is noisy and microphonic. I have been thinking of selling it but I just cannot do this...

    Take a look to this picture, please

    I want both pickups in series at switch's middle position. Is it right?

    Another weird wiring question

    Can it be done? Wiring two humbuckers with a three way switch as: neck,neck+bridge in series, bridge. It is not necessary changing between parallel and series. Thanks

    Treble CUT at Volume Knob??

    Hello, I have a strange idea::scratchch The guitar has 2 pickups, 1 three way switch and just 1 knob. Is there any way to wire the potentiometer for acting like a tone knob too? I want to cut treble as the volume is turn down: the lower the volume, the bassier the tone. Would the treble...
