Re: Coil Split WLH So I guess this is the one that I need. How will it sound with the 500k vs 300k (I guess that's what comes stock)?

I had a Les Paul years ago with coil splits. I really liked and used the one in the neck a good bit. I never found a use for it in the bridge though. My main SG that I play now has a WLH neck and Custom bridge. I would like to split the neck with a push/pull volume like my Les Paul was. I don't...

Has anyone tried the 57s with an alnico 5? I have Duncan's in all my my guitars but I was thinking about leaving the stock ones in one of my SGs. It's a cheap fix and if I don't like it then I'm not out of much money. I'm just a fan of alnico 5 mags in my JB, Jazz and WLH pickups. I've even...

I've been wanting a DSL40 for awhile and I found a good deal for one on C.L. with a speaker change. It's a little drive to go check it out though. I was wondering what y'all would think the Weber Ceramic Bluedog would sound like in one and would it be an upgrade over the original celestion? Thanks

Has anyone ever used a 920d? If so was it gtg? I have 2012 American Deluxe with the N3 pickups and S1 switch. I don't really use the S1 switch and the N3 bridge is just not hot enough for me. Instead of changing pickups on it I think I would rather keep it like it is and just buy a loaded...

I have a SH-5 Custom bridge and a WLH neck in my SG. It really does everything that I want it to. I use the Custom for everything from 70s leads to 90s metal. Also I really like the WLH for cleans and it's awesome for my blues playing. I can even get early Black Sabbath tones out of the WLH...

Re: New Fender N3 Pickups I love my N3 set in my 2013 deluxe. I really like having the three different alnico magnets 3,2,5. But would I buy this set to put in a Strat? Heck no

Re: MXR pedals

I've been looking for a new tube amp. I live about 150 miles away from a music store, so I can't just go try one out. I need something loud enough to play over drums. I play mainly blues, 70s classic rock and just a little metal. My main guitars are SGs and a Strat. I really would like to have...

Re: Fender Amps Would I be better buying something like this used for blues, classic rock or buying a something new like the bassbreaker 30r?

I've had amps from Orange, Marshall, Vox, Peavey and everything in between. But I've never had a Fender and don't know much about them. So that's next on my list to try. My question is I'll be playing blues, classic rock and a little bit of 80s metal and I'm wondering which would be the best...

Re: Real/Fake fender?

Re: Real/Fake fender? Another question about strats, I found a 2013 American with the big Stratocaster logo. I can't find any info on it and I was wondering what it was.

Re: Real/Fake fender? Yeah something just doesn't look right to me. A woman has it for sale on Facebook for only $250. Advertised as an American Strat.

Can any of you Fender guy's tell me if that logo looks legit. I'm not familiar with fenders that much and I know the logo doesn't resemble my 2013. Thanks for any help.
