    Post your new pedals

    Re: Post your new pedals Just picked up this used SD-1w on eBay for a good price. I already have a regular SD-1 on my pedalboard but I wanted another to carry with me when I'm not using the board. Such a useful pedal. Never leave home without one! And scored this 1983 PH-1r earlier in the...

    Hi guys, long time no see! Simple question.... If you could choose between a Sampson era Matchless Lightning 2x10 combo and a Tone King Imperial 20th Anniversary hand-wired 1x12 combo which would you pick and why? Cheers!

    Custom Shop Whole Lotta Humbucker vs retail SH-18

    Re: Custom Shop Whole Lotta Humbucker vs retail SH-18 I have a set of the original UK custom shop version. They look like this. Long legs and no logos as you say. I've no idea about differences between the CS and regular production versions.

    Pick ONE Guitar

    Re: Pick ONE Guitar My 1996 Gibson Les Paul Standard. I bought it new in Feb '97 when I decided to get back into playing with bands after a long layoff. It's been my number one ever since. Loads of gigs and rehearsals and memories and it's my go-to guitar. Nothing special to look at but it...

    UGD -Epi G-400 Custom

    Re: UGD -Epi G-400 Custom Great score Scott. I love mine. As we discussed elsewhere I went with 3 '59s and it sounds great, though I'm sure a C5 will rock in the bridge. I wired mine as standard HH with a push/pull on the neck tone that combines the middle pickup with the bridge. I also added a...

    Post your main guitar

    Re: Post your main guitar It's an old pic, so my apologies if you've seen it 1000 times before. The cherry sunburst '96 LP Standard on the left has been my number one guitar since I bought it new in early '97. The honeyburst '91 LP Classic on the right has been gaining ground since it...

    Post your amp collection

    Re: Post your amp collection Marshall JMP 2104 Combo - I love this amp to death. I had one I bought new in 1980 then sold a few years later when I thought I needed 2 channels and reverb. Regretted that sale for years. Picked this one up on eBay in 2007. The open back fills a room beautifully...

    Whole Lotta Humbucker Pickups - Genuine or not???

    Re: Whole Lotta Humbucker Pickups - Genuine or not??? Hi Hobgoblin, They look genuine to me. I think they're one of the early sets from when they were sold as a "UK exclusive". I have a set I got direct from Seymour Duncan's UK distributor and mine look like this..... It looks as if yours...
