    I do indeed! Interested? Just making sure though, you're in the (continental) U.S., right? (I got burned once before offering free shipping, when the buyer ended up being located in western Canada. :rolleyes:) Let me know, my Paypal is: K20Dfan@gmail.com Thanks! Paul

    For Sale: Black Winter bridge pickup, humbucker spaced

    Selling a Black Winter bridge pickup, $70 (which includes shipping to the continental U.S.) Very good condition, about 13 inches of lead. Humbucker spaced, no logo. I don't remember how I acquired this, but the guitar I wanted to put it in turned out to be F-spaced. I did still use it for a...

    Neck pickup discussion - please drop your thoughts

    The guitars I have are set up with a Fishman Classic set; a Fishman Modern set; JB/59-A4; Distortion/Jazz-RCUOA5; and Black Winter/Sentient-A2. I honestly don't care for the neck pickups on either Fishman set, and in fact I'll probably switch from the Classics to something passive (probably...

    SOLD- Pickups F/S: Black Winter (White!), Sentient, SH-5 Custom

    Selling a white Black Winter humbucker bridge pickup that I ordered as a Shop Floor Custom. I planned to install it in a non-trem string-through Schecter, only to later discover that the guitar is F-spaced! The pickup is brand-new, never installed. $90 with free shipping to continental U.S...

    SOLD- For Sale: EMG 81/85 set

    For Sale- EMG 81/85 set, $100 It had been a while since I'd tried active pickups, so I thought I'd give these a shot. Actually ended up switching to Fishmans, so these EMGs need a new home. They're basically brand new, I think I only played these for a couple hours total. This is for the...

    Original Floyd Rose locking nut- is this correct?

    I just bought a new Jackson Soloist, which came with an Original Floyd Rose tremolo. Nice guitar! I hadn't noticed any unusual sounds from it initially, but after giving it a little TLC, the high E now has this horrible buzzing/ringing sound, mostly if the string is played open. I've heard it...

    Banshee or Blackjack- Which one gets the JB?

    I just picked up an SH-4 JB, but need some opinions on which guitar to put it into. The decision has to do with which guitar build and tone-woods would be the best match. The candidates are a Schecter SLS Blackjack, and a Schecter Banshee Elite (in "Cat's Eye Pearl" finish). Both are...

    Alnico Magnets in Nazgul 6 String Humbucker...

    Re: Alnico Magnets in Nazgul 6 String Humbucker... A couple years ago, based on Clint 55's recommendation I planned to swap a double-thickness A5 magnet into a Nazgul. I had to order it from Cer-Mag in England. A lot pricier proposition than the usual Addiction-FX. Turned out that it was...

    FS: Seymour Duncan Invader set, chrome hex heads

    SH-8 Bridge & SH-8 Neck, $80 shipped (continental U.S.) These came out of a used guitar that I bought. The set-up was 2-volume, no tone, 3-way switch. As such, the red/white leads were not used and are secured under shrink tubing, but all of the leads are present. Bridge pickup has 7" of...

    Duncan Distortion SH-6B

    Used Duncan Distortion SH-6B, for sale. Bought it used, didn't know until it arrived that apparently, it was originally a covered pickup, and the cover has been unsoldered. Plays fine, I just prefer the Black Winter right now. $40 shipped USPS to the continental U.S.

    Guitar I sold is back on C.L. !

    https://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/msg/d/1990-jackson-soloist1st-yr/6555355118.html This is kind of amusing, in a way... I sold this guitar to a guy on Craigslist, about two months ago. Happened to be browsing today, and well looky here! I owned and cherished that guitar for several...

    Taming the Nazgul?

    Recently I picked up a Schecter KM-6 Mk II, Keith Merrow signature model. Other than the somewhat boring (for metal!) natural satin finish, it's really an excellent, well-designed and well-built guitar. At least for me personally, I'm tired of the "metal = black" trend, and I like the natural...

    Hey check it out- I'm a shredder!

    So yesterday I stopped in my local GC, hoping to check out a few different guitars with an eye toward a new purchase. Undecided on any particular brand, I picked up several different models ranging in price from $350 up to $900. I was really looking for something around the $1000 range, but...

    LTD EC-1000 Koa - on clearance at GC!

    Just a heads up- A couple of weeks ago I spotted a couple of ESP/LTD guitars, the EC-1000 Koa model, at my local Guitar Center. So I was back in there earlier this past week, wanting to check one out to see how it played. Well, they have now put them both on clearance and knocked a couple...
