    Is this an SD pickup?

    Hey all - we have a pre-owned 2013 Rick Kelly Strat in the store and when we cracked it open to see what PUps were in there, we came upon these. There are no model labels, but signature looks like it could be Seymour - anyone have any ideas? Picture at...

    Echoplex EP4 restoration - a last little bit of help...

    Recently, I took a punt on a mid-70s Echoplex EP-4 Tape Delay that was listed as Non-functioning on Reverb. It was definitely DIRTY but, after a deep and thorough cleaning, I’ve been pleasantly surprised to find that, with a fresh tape cassette, the mechanics and circuit work fine - I have...

    59/Custom Hybrid - internally out of phase

    Hi, all - just put a new 59/C in the bridge of my Reverend Double Agent and it’s really snappy, however slightly nasal tonally. It could be down to the axe itself, however I had a PRail once that was internally out of phase, and very nasal in HB mode, so I was wondering if it may be possible...

    New tracks on the Virus Child EP

    Couple of weeks back I posted SEE ME, an instrumental I’d recorded during self-isolation, knowing that I was likely to do more, I called it the VIRSU CHILD project. Sure enough, I’m up to almost half an hour, with the fourth track released yesterday. We don’t often talk about the making of...

    FS Mesa Boogie Recto-Verb 25 1x12 Combo

    Hi, all - I'm currently listing my (very) lightly used Recto-Verb 25 - a great amp, that I just don't use enough to justify keeping around. Full Reverb listing is at https://reverb.com/item/32329740-mesa-boogie-recto-verb-25-1x12-combo

    New track - See Me

    Hey, all - once again, music is keeping me safe and sane during these self isolating days. The first instrumental written and recorded during lockdown is up at https://vincet.net/virus-child/ More on the way. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    P90 Antiquity Dogear Dimensions

    Re: P90 Antiquity Dogear Dimensions It does have a small lip around the edge, whether it will cover a humbucker rout or not depends on the size of the rout :) Here's a pic of mine with mm rule alongside - there's a little foreshortening in the picture - to my eye, it looks like the dimensions...

    Time to return the 1972 Fender Telecaster Custom :(

    Time to give the 1972 Fender Telecaster Custom back to my friend Tim Quinn (#sadface). Back story: he's had this guitar since the early 80s - either bequeathed or given to him, by the lead guitarist of his then band, so a player's instrument, rather than an in-case vintage collector's piece...

    Think I fixed noise in my Budda Verbmaster 18

    My 1998 Budda Verbmaster has been noisy for a number of years - hiss as always, but the pots (volume, treble, bass) all seemed to be building up a static charge that could only be dispelled by turning them to extremes, then it would dissipate. Though this didn’t sound or act like oxidation...

    For Sale: TC Flashback X4 Delay & Looper - Very Lightly Used

    You're looking at my TC Electronic Flashback X4 Delay & Looper. I bought this as a user and fan of the regular Flashback Delay - so much so that I thought it'd be great to have 4 of those pedals, with 3 toneprint slots AND a Ditto Looper available on presets. And it does all that... But...

    MySetlist - Artist Edition for iPhone

    Hi, folks - don't want to spam the forum, so figured the Trading Post is the closest fit for sharing that I've just released MySetlist - Artist Edition for iPhone. https://appsto.re/i67X62w MySetlist is a setlist management app for musicians, producers and DJs - so you'll have all your set...

    And then I put a clean booster in the effects loop...

    I've always used all my boosts and drives into the front of the amp, keeping the loop primarily for delays and reverbs. I don't know what got me thinking on it the other day, but for the first time I put my clean boost (TC Spark Mini) at the tail end of the loop, last thing before the power...

    Itchy soldering iron - replacement Pups for Parker Nitefly Mojo

    Told myself I wasn't going back inside this guitar, after upgrading to a Graphtech Acoustiphonic/Hexpander, including routing a big chunk out the back. Thing is, it's such a beautiful guitar to play, and the versatility is amazing. BUT, I've never really liked the JB/Jazz combo in the guitar -...

    Finally, I dig my Tele!

    In 2010, I treated myself to an American Deluxe Ash Telecaster, wine red with S1 switching and N3 pickups. Played like a dream but... I just never bonded with it. As the years came and went I tried to sell it a couple of times but had no takers. So it sat in its case because, well, "everyone...

    SD NPD: Shape Shifter

    Added a Shape Shifter to my board yesterday, my first SD pedal, and really happy with a) it's sound, and b) how it plays with my other tones. I'd tried a number of other tremolo pedals, but they all seemed geared to fast cycles, with very little flexibility in the "slow throb" end of the dial...
