Has anyone thought of using a nutube preamp for active pups in a guitar? anyone have an idea how it could be done?

Re: Amp options RACK DOWNGRADE here it is

Hi guys, so i have a rack and like most rack guys im sick of how heavy it is, especially as i dont have any rack FX, its far too powerful and personally i feel like my pedalboard into a clean amp is both more versatile AND sounds better. I have no money so im gonna trade it for something...

Hi guys i haven't been on here for months but i have a question: I normally use either my engl e530 (marshall el34 100/100 when power amp) for heavier stuff or my marshall lead 12 for rockier stuff with a 2x12 loaded with a v 30 and a g12 greenback when im live and i want to replicate my live...

Hi guys, I'm looking for an affordable but versatile comp that i can use in a bunch of situations, i go all the way from metal to indy/acoustic style stuff and also play some function stuff. So far im thinking either Joyo Pipebomb or tc electronic forcefield but any other ideas would be welcome!

Has anyone made a guitar with a cross sawn top? i know that you couldn't make a neck or the majority of the body with it because it would split and/or warp but just a top or a veneer would look cool to me. Or maybe even just a bark binding?

hi guys, so i want to start building guitars and ive been modding and working on on my existing guitars for years, i know the basic theory and i figured id try building my own guitar from scratch (NOT from a kit) Pretty much im a complete noob when it comes to this and and im just looking for...

Hey guys I'm thinking of upgrading the trem in my strat? I was wondering if there's any alternative trems that won't need routing... Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Hi Guys, i have a marshall Lead 12 head (given to me by my grandad) which i normally use for bedroom jamming and i absolutely love it, so i brought it to a rehearsal to put through a 2x12 and i thought it was killer! Great amp for pedals and sounds really punky/grungy! The rest of the band...

So, at the moment i use an engl e530 preamp with a marshall el34 100/100, i've seen a Mesa triple rectifier which i could afford if i traded/sold my current setup. I do like my current tone (a hecking lot) but i feel like there's something not quite there. I use modern metal tones mostly but i...

Right. I like metal. Dive bombs sound cool. Drop tuning's, shred, djent, lots of gain literally all of it. But i cant for the life of me understand why people love superstrats so much? Come on... I cant be the only one. So pretty much, am i the only one who doesn't like them, and what...

So i ordered a set of emg 81/85 for my strat and im just thinking of my layout for them. Its a 2010 blacktop so its built around hums anyway. I'm trying to decide between: 2 volume 1 tone with a 3 way blade (like a normal person) OR Taking out the blade switch, taping the hole, and using the...

Hi guys i'm pretty new here so first post... be nice :P I am just wondering how the screw head and material (obviously ferrous) affects the tone of a PUP and also if the Slot shape (hex/Philips/Flathead) affects it if at all. My tone is normally a modern metal tone (TS9, shredmaster, engl e530...
