All, My wife has started playing bass :headbang: However, the only bass she liked was the Ibanez GSRM20, a short scale bass. Beautiful, but krappy electronics. Tonight it started shocking her when plugged into my '72 Twin Reverb. If we turn it in, it's a cheap bass, and I'm...

Usually people buy a guitar and then choose pickups for it. This time, I specifically want the Full Shred set. So my question is: what would be a great HH/HSH guitar to buy with the specific purpose of housing the Full Shred set? I was thinking basswood body type "Dinky" setup, maybe, but...

I'm selling my 1972 Fender Twin Reverb. Make me an offer. I am only parting with it due to economic circumstances. http://www.puresimplicity.net/~delahunt/music/twinreverb.html Keep in mind the sound clips on my personal website are very old, and the amp was in bad need of a capacitor job...

All, For your amusement: a Behringer CT-100 disassembled, with pictures. I was repairing the battery box. Enjoy! http://www.puresimplicity.net/~delahunt/music/ct100.html

Several questions, if you don't mind (and thanks in advance): 1) Anyone used the 5/2 pickup? In what guitar? What did you think of it? 2) Do you think there would/could be a market for the 5/2 but as a stack pickup?

Has anyone ever tried a Hot Stack bridge pickup in a basswood body guitar? I'm wondering how the combination works together. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

OK, so I'm selling my Fender Lite Ash Stratocaster. Used but in good working condition, and the 3 x Alnico II Pro Staggered pickups sound fantastic! Only mods are locking tuners (from a Fender Showmaster Blackout, new direct from Fender), Schaller strap locks (original strap buttons are in the...

Per the Full Shred description, " tone that's fat and chunky, yet perfectly defined for speed riffs. Gives tonal control in high-gain situations." I am going to buy a Showmaster SSS soon. I apologize in advance, as this is not the first time I've asked this, but, excluding he YJM set, what set...

I have a '59 neck pickup (reverse polarity) and Pearly Gates Plus for sale, both from a used Fender Showmaster. They were working when pulled. Either separately or together. Hoping to get $35 each (despite both requiring a Custom Shop order, technically, if you wanted to buy them new), but...

Here she is after installing the Jazz neck and Full Shred bridge. A special thanks to MJ, who wound my Jazz neck RP.

For sale: '59 neck pickup (reverse polarity), black, and Pearly Gates Plus bridge (black) from a stock Fender Showmaster. Both are four wire. I'll post pictures when I get back from work. I don't have a price in mind so please make me an offer. Can be sold together or individually.

Re: Can't eliminate extra noise OK, first, this is through a BOSS BR-80 and a cheap set of USB speakers. Second, when I play it unplugged, I don't hear nearly this much extra string sympathy noise on the higher (geographically) strings. Third, I've noticed that my thumb tends to arch against...

I'm having a problem where I can't seem to reduce the background noise of my playing. I'm trying to play something fast and I can't seem to get the higher strings that are not being played to stop ringing in sympathy (not because I'm accidentally touching them). Here's the lick: 4/4 tempo=70...

Yes, shameless plug. I have created a Fender Showmaster page on Facebook for fans, players, etc. When I get my newly-purchased Showmaster, I'll be utilizing this page heavily to show mods, share pictures, and post videos and audio. FB Fender Showmaster Page Have a good day!

I have been bitten by GAS again. I recently bought a Fender Showmaster HH and I am going to put the Full Shred set into it. I want to buy a Showmaster SSS and drop three hum-canceling pickups in it and basically configure this Showmaster SSS like the Showmaster HH: for leads. What would you...
