Hi Guys apologies if this has been discussed already but I did a search and couldn't find anything. I read an interview with Eric recently and he mentions he's now using sd pups. Does anyone know which model he uses? Thanks spidey

Hi Guys I've read some real good reviews of WCR crossroads pups. Any of you guys had first hand experience? I'd be very interested to hear your views. thanks.

some of you guys may remember my post a couple of weeks ago where I mentioned that after using my PGs in my main Les-Paul for a year I heard a live recording of the band and was concerned my tone was too thinand bright. Well, I gotta say like a fool (and I've been playing for 25yrs!) I hadn't...

Robben gets some cool tones on this - I see that he uses a 59 in the bridge and a PG in the neck on his signature model. Does anyone know what guitar he uses with jing chi - is it his sig. model or an LP? If its an LP, does anyone know what pups he has it loaded with? Great tones, love the...

Hi guys, Heard this the other da yfor the first time in years - awesome tone. I know the guitarist Dave Meniketti uses SD pups does anyone know what he would have used for this?

Hi guys, I play LPs and my main one has a set of PGs in there that I have been very pleased with. However, I'm starting to think of a change. I've listened to a few live recordings of my band recently and my sound is thinner and sharper than I had imagined. Here's what I'm looking for - an AII...

Now this is obviously just my opinion and is down to my taste and my rig but: I use a Marsall 100w valve head cranked to 10 and then tamed with a power brake. I use an LP with a PG set and the only pedal is a cry baby. When a Marshall valve head is cranked all the way you get a very warm tone...

Hope you guys can help. Does anyone have any clips of their guitar with and without a Klon Centaur so I can hear the difference? Thanks.

I have a 10 second AVI clip of my banplaying live. I wondered if there was any way I could convert this to MP3 so I can post this on the forum so people can hear my PGs in action. Any help would be great!

My band is playing a festival at the weekend and I have just been informed that I can't use my trusty Marshall rig and have to use one of the amps they supply. My choices are a Laney VC 50 or a Peavey Classic 50. I'm not familiar with either of these - what do you guys think? Any opinions on...

I was lucky to get my hands on a protype body and neck for the Ibanez saber in the late 80s /early 90s, made before the production model started. The body is natural mahogony, the neck is mahogany with a maple strip running down the middle and the fingerboard is ebony. It used to play like a...

I'm thinking of bringing it out of retirement. At the moment it has hot rails in there that I fitted in the late 80s. I now want to revert it single coil pups - the strat players tones I like are Robin Trower, Ritchie Blackmore, Hendrix and Rory Gallagher. I guess I'm thinking big and warm -...

I finally took the plunge and ordered a pearly gates set with nickel covers on for my LP. I originally had burstbucker pros on there, which whilst good didn't deliver what I wanted, which was a sweet, round, thick, creamy singing tone, similar to Warren Haynes. I opted for the Pearly Gates set...

I've just fitted 2 Pearly Gates pups with nickle covers to my Les-Paul. Unfortunately I can't try them with an amp till I rehearse with my band and I don't want to bore the rest of the band while I'm tinkering with my pups all night. I know that its all down to personal taste etc etc and I'm...

I have 2 lesters - a Raw Power and a 2003 Standard. I love the way the Raw Power is setup, but not the setup on the 2003. Do you think its a good idea to measure things on the raw power - bridge height and tail piece - and then replicate it on the 2003? Will this get me in the same ball park...
