Wanted to have an HSS in my collection. After looking at many different guitars I decided to go with a 22 fret bolt on neck guitar with a floyd rose and maple neck. Ended up choosing a Charvel model because of their good reviews, their history of being some of the first makers of superstrats and...

So I'm dead set on replacing the stock pickups on an epiphone flying v with an a2pro aph 1 in the neck. Thing is, I have another guitar which has an SD 59 in the neck and I would want to replace the 59 with a jazz if it sounds too similar to the a2pro aph 1. Thoughts/suggestions and opinions...

Ok, so the like the title says, I'm a noob when it comes to all of this stuff. Casual research and browsing various forums, articles etc. has lead me to learn certain phrases/concepts and has caused me to be lead to believe certain things (whether correctly or incorrectly) but there are things...

So for some context, I'm looking at a barely played basically brand new guitar. If I do purchase this guitar, it will be one of 4 guitars I own and I plan on buying 3 more guitars for a total of 7 guitars. I am not a professional or working musician and I don't plan on playing the same guitar...

When I say stock flying v, I mean this antique natural with bb2 in the neck and bb3 in the bridge: https://www.gibson.com/en-US/Guitar/USAM1U838/Flying-V/Antique-Natural I like the Gibson V for various reasons. I like the design, the weight, the provenance. What I'm looking for is good all...

So I have a MIM 1994 Fender stratocaster. I got it used late 90s or early 2000s I was thinking that one day I might add some locking tuners (it's horrible at staying in tune) and some loud pickups. Now I don't want to stray from the distinct strat sound, I have other guitars and plan to get...

Although I've been doing some reading, Im somewhat of a noob at this stuff...so I may request clarification from any replies people give me I've got the following flying v with the stock dual dirty fingers plus pickups...
