    New DMM day

    Yea the Harbor Freight thing was sposed to be a cheap hold over. But man...touching the leads together to check for zero( or however much resistencr of the leads needed to be deducted from measurements) the reading would dance all over the place. Then after a short time it stopped reading and...

    Is this a mislabelled bridge pickup?

    Just to add. I had no idea there were such a thing as counterfit Duncan pickups. I learned that here. Which was why I bought my 3 recent pickups through authorized dealers like sweetwater and the freind. If it were not for here I am that guy who searches ebay for the lowest price. So your not alone.

    OOOO steel wool and fret wear

    Best feeling neck I ever had was a 74' strat neck with a C shape that had been refretted and the fingerboard was unfinished. Shoulda never sold that build.

    OOOO steel wool and fret wear

    Damn....I got a whole bag of it. Ive done the backs of half my necks and all my rosewood fingerboards with it. I mask off the pickups though. I usually do it right in the middle of the music room then sweep up the shards afterward. Lol

    Humbucker for HSS strat

    Put the 500k volume in today. I think with the tone disconnected and the 500k volume the SD sounds good now. The singles are a hair brighter but they suck anyway.

    PRS DGT-15 vs Peavey Classic 20 MH Guitar Mini Amp Head

    Peavey classics are sweet amps. Never played a 20 but the 50 2x12 was a great bluesy sweet amp.

    OOOO steel wool and fret wear

    So I allways use 0000 steel wool to polish frets if they are oxidized. Anyways on my ongoing strat saga. When I first got it back I steel wooled the frets shiney and also got a little aggressive and removed the poly skin off the fret board( thick 70s style poly on maple fingerboard) Now I Keep...

    What are the chances?

    Ill bet it was the inlay. That that frequency vibrating through hit just right.

    Are FaitalPRO speakers any good?

    A local PA provider around here swears by them. He has old W bins loaded with them. Another good company is B&C they will match up speakers for your cab specs if you call them.
