    Uh OH. FREE STUFF.

    Alright folks. I got a deal. I have a Tech 21 Double Drive, OR a 59/Custom Hybrid. Your choice, it's FREE for anyone who can resolve this unfortunate issue. I recently got a Vox Cambridge, great amp, did the 56 mod. Thanks again Chris, good business. Well, somehow, I accidently broke a pin off...

    Pickup This Deal

    Pretty CRAFTY. You dig? Alright, up for auction are TWO pickups, yes that's right FOLKS, the entire package. One 59 neck pickup and one 59/CC Hybrid pickup. In return I would like an AP2 pickup, preferably neck position. Regardless, will entertain all offers. Both pickups were purchased less...

    Bass Pickups

    I am looking for replacement pickups, all three slots, for a Squire Precision Bass. I would like to fix it up, as it already is in excellent condition. I have an Ampeg SVT-3 Pro running through SWR Henry 8X8. I think the pickups are weak. Looking for smooth pickup, with moderate attack. Would be...

    Tube Amp

    Looking for 15-30 tube amplifer, smooth tone. I'm new to the low watt tube combo, so go easy on me. I hope to keep it under 250, preferabley $200. Nothing fancy, no parade here, a couple of knobs will suffice. Can be home-made with the inclusion of photo's. Working, non-working, it doesn't...

    Solid Tube?

    Is it possible to turn a solid state into a tube amp. I have a Presonus tube preamp in the fx loop, but would like to add more texture. The amp is a modified Marshall 250DFX. The modifications were done by a friend, but I'm not sure to what extent, other than replacing capicitors, using...

    Have I been mislead?

    I would like to think of myself as thrifty, but after reading comments knocking 100 watt amplifiers, I am beginning to wonder. I've thought about purchasing an Orange AD30, but at the point, I am happy with my setup. I have stellar hearing, or so I have been told. So here's the setup. I have a...

    Foil Tape

    I am having issues with foil tape. The guitar was already shielded with paint when I purchased it, but since some of the shielding has begun to wear, mostly due to my poor soldering skills. Everytime I touch the foil my guitar buzzes like no tomorrow. Is this normal? Kind of like touching a...

    A4 Magnets

    Where can I purchase an A3 or A4 magnet? Does anyone have any they would be willing to sell? Good results? How is the A8 in relation? Anyways, I live in San Antonio. Would Sam Ash, or any local music shop carry these magnets, or is this uncommon, something that has to be ordered? Thanks in advance.

    59/CC Hum

    I am having issues with, dare I say it, HUM. I originally had a CC in the bridge, nothing is placed in the neck position. With the CC, there was obsolutely no HUM, but for some odd reason, the 59/CC combo is causing a considerate amount of hum. Enough hum to pull my ass from the couch. I'm sure...

    Bajabers?

    I recently installed a 59 in the neck position to join the 59/CC I have placed in the bridge. Well, I can't get a sound from the neck position, nor the blended position. The bridge position was fine. Normally, if the neck pickup is disconnected, or not placed, the 2nd position blend still works...

    59/CC Hybrid (Double Screw)

    First and foremost, I would like to thanks to BACHTOROCK for spreading the good news amongst the masses. You can have both folks. Anyways, on to my question. I was wondering if this pickup combination would sound good. Double Screw 59/CC Hybrid. The twist here is the way in which the screws are...

    Pickup Surgry?

    I currently have a 59 in the bridge position of my Ibanez GIO (basswood, maple neck, rosewood fret) Nothing in the neck. I swapped the A5 for an A2 magnet. I love the sound that I am able to get from the clean channel, but I prefer the distortion of the Custom Custom. The 59 seems too edgy when...

    Urgent! I think?

    I am replacing the magnet in my 59 with an Alinco 2. When I attempted to pull out the magnet, some of the wax from the pole pieces came off. :smack: It is the wax inbetween the magnet and the black plastic piece. Did I do something wrong? Why did they use wax around the pole pieces? How do I...

    59 set

    I recently purchased a set of 59's. Needless to say, I was not satisfied. There is no issues with the humbuckers themselves, but more so a matter of preference. Anyways, I am entertaining all offers for this set, and possibly for the 59 neck itself. Again, these pickups were purchased within the...

    Not Too Shabby

    Okay....Some of you might have pondered the results of a bridge pickup in the neck position. Well, nothing exploded, so far, so good, right? I placed a 59b pickup into the neck position of my Ibanez GIO, while a custom custom sits in the bridge position. The clean sound was very full, brilliant...
