The 57tw was amazing in the bridge of my Strat HSS and I loved it. I kept it in there until I got all the parts together to install the 57/66tw in my Les Paul Standard, and then I took it out and installed the 89 I had ordered. Eventually I would like to get an 89R, as I have become familiar...

This is an image of the wiring diagram that EMG has posted on their website which I used for my guitar. EVERYTHING in my guitar matches this schematic/diagram 100%. I have been over it with a fine toothed comb and there is no stone that I left unturned. My guitar is absolutely positively...

I am wondering if anyone else maybe has EMG pickups in their Stratocaster in an HSS configuration, and if so, are you able to use positions 3 through 5 without the humbucker coloring the tone? I have an EMG 89 SA SA setup in my guitar, and I thought that the SA set sounded different than when I...

Sounds like you are describing my old ESP/LTD M-1001 Deluxe to a TEE!! I miss that guitar, but it just so happens I JUST got finished up with a build, or well, re-build that puts me in the same neck of the woods, but better. I've got my second favorite guitar ever, my 1996 Stratocaster...

So I just rebuilt my Strat and I've built two pick guards, one active and one passive. My Strat has an HSS route though even though it came as an SSS. SO... I'm thinking about getting two SAS and adding a 57tw because they are splittable, so I could have SSS, or HSS in the one guitar. But...

So I've been waiting for a Pegasus/Sentient pickup set to show up for a couple days and last night they showed up. I did a hardware swap on my Gibson Les Paul Standard and took off all the chrome hard ware and replaced it all with black hardware using all direct replacement parts, so its all...

How far off of my strings should my JB Jr (mini humbucker) be. It's the bridge pickup on my 95 Fender Stratocaster

My main squeeze is a 2012 Gibson Les Paul Standard 60's. I love Alnico II pickups, especially humbuckers (though single coil Alnico II's sound great as well), and for a good while now I have been playing a Pearly Gates set in my LP. I couldn't be happier with them, and it's not that they are...

I've got a Peavey Invective 120. I love the gain/ high gain tones I get on Ch 2 & 3, but Ch. 1 I have found, is better for much more than just a pristine clean. With 2 effects loops on the amp, I use the 2nd for effects with Ch 2 and 3 and I use number 1 loop for effects with the clean...

I have a Peavey Invective 120 head and matching 2x12 cab. I have recently gotten into home recording using my audio interface with Bias FX2 in Reaper, but since I got this amp I have using it as well and I am trying to figure out the proper or best way to do so. The amp has an MSDI out on the...

Just thought I would put this up for anyone who may be interested in the Peavey Invective 120w amp head. I bought one about 6 months ago, and I can't believe it hasn't gotten anymore play than it has on the forums, YouTube, etc. I know there was an issue with availability for a couple years...

Got a Fender Super Sonic 60 1x12 combo for a steal, got some new pickups for my LP and my Strat, and getting going with what is so far a makeshift home studio. Using Bias FX 2 and Reaper with my home studio equipment along with a new HP Pavilion with 12GB RAM and an i7 processor (gave my girl...

Anybody recognize these pickups. Need help figuring out what they are, if that's even possible. Guy who sold me the guitar told me they were Fender Texas Specials but I know that is not right. I know they aren't Texas Specials... But wtf are they???:smack: I just installed an Obsidianwire 7...

I would like to know what pieces of gear I need to get ahold of to start using my computer to play, mainly interested in using Bias 2 and Bias 2 FX. I have never played using anything but my amps thus far, so I am completely in the dark as far as the basic gear I will need. I know it can get...

I am interested to know what the differences are between Gibson Burstbucker Pro (Rhythm and Treble) and Gibson 57' Classic/ 57' Classic Plus pickup sets. Which types of music would either of the two be best suited for and so on? Any info from individuals with experience with these types of...
