    Charvel Super Stock 1888-no pickup sounds good.

    I am just about to give up on this thing. Stock Super Distortion sounded terrible in this. Swapped to a SD Jupiter-not any better. Swapped to a 59/Custom Hybrid-Not terrible but not a tone that I can use. I think the main problem with this guitar body design is that the bridge pickup is...

    Yet another HSH pickguard post

    I am in the process of making a partscaster from a Fender Ultra Luxe Floyd rose body and an 80s Squier MIK neck with floyd nut. I am going HSH on this. I have an idea so let me discuss it and fill me in on some things im missing: Pickups: Bridge-Seymour Duncan Hyperion Middle-Seymour Duncan...

    When did SD discontinue Parchment humbuckers?

    I did a humbucker swap on my 2001 Fender Big Apple strat from the Pearly Gates + (which i do like) to a 59/custom hybrid. The Hybrid is white, but i didnt realize that the Pearly Gates+ and 59RWRP were in parchment.... Kind of looks odd.

    Does SD do guitar shows other than ones in SOCAL/NAMM?

    Just wondering if they have booths at any other of the bigger guitar shows across the country. I would love to meet MJ!

    Crate Stealth GT-50C Combo to head conversion

    This is an amp I have been wanting to try for a while now. This is the Lee Jackson designed head, which has 2 gain stages, one of them is similar to a JCM 800. I have a good friend who has the 50w head and it sounds incredible. I found this combo for pretty cheap and planned on converting it...

    NGD-2023 Gibson Les Paul Custom Axcess

    For many years, i thought it was sacrilege to put a Floyd on a LP. Recently though, now that im in a gigging band, i thought to myself-this could combine 2 things i really love for a very versatile guitar. I dig the axcess heel quite a bit, but im still getting used to it. Unfortunately, the...

    Anybody here live in the Albuquerque area? There is a Crate Stealth GT50, an amp I have been looking for some time, available at a store there for super cheap! I would be willing to do a trade if somebody is interested.

    2 different guitars, 2 different pickup swap debacles

    I have a 2014 Charvel MIM San Dimas HS HT that is a great player however, not a good "sound-er" so to say. I have swapped the OEM TB-4 JB for a TB-16 59/Custom Hybrid-It didnt work well in this guitar. I now put a Dimarzio Dominion in and its SUPER Woof-y. Now i want to replace that with an...

    Hot Stack neck too bright

    As some of you have followed my post from a few months back about my Fender Squier FM-211ST, I did a full electronics upgrade on it-new pots, switch and of course Duncans. Red Strat with Floyd, i automatically put a Hot Stack in the neck (to get that Gillis vibe). It is WAY too bright, but...

    Gibson Double Trouble

    So did Gibson win the lawsuit against DiMarzio? Has anybody seen these guitars? Shipping with "double classic white" bobbins, which we all know what that is about. Or is this their way to get around the patent? If thats the case, SD should do this as well.

    I am in the process of completely rebuilding a 2002 LP Standard in Ebony. I am currently looking for a true plug/play aftermarket bridge/tailpiece. Any recommendations? Im guessing Tonepros is probably the best choice?
