    Anyone know which pups this guy is using?

    I found this guy on youtube and am pretty impressed by his tone. I think these are the new classic stack plus, but was hoping someone may verify it for me. Thanks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D731pJiL_8E

    Which is your favorite between these 2?

    I have recently installed a C5 in my strat with a 59 bridge in the neck. I also have a jb laying around also. I run the c5 with a torres eng midrange cut/boost (I know but it seems to work with the C5) which is giving a little of a boost to the scooped mids. So what I have is like a JB with...

    is there a harmonic friendly verson of the c5?

    Is there a pickup that is like a C5 or PAF type that is easy to get harmonics with? I was thinking of a Demon maybe??

    which lp's did Eddie use the CC on??

    Was listening to Fair Warning and was listening to the guitar tone (big surprise, uh?). I was wondering if he was using the CC on that recording (so this is love, and Mean Streets)??

    humbucker bridge angle

    I have a strat pickguard with an angled bridge bucker. I'm thinking about putting my A2-JB in it and have questions about what to expect in tone. Will the bottom be tighter or looser and will the highs be brighter or duller than if the pickup were straight. This will be installed with a 250k...

    Which Kramer Guitar model do you prefer

    Which model would be best suited for a 59/jb combo (focus, pacer, strikers etc). No barettas as I can't afford them unless its for parts). Needless to say, I'm on a musicians budget and have pickups that need a home. I don't want to spend more than 500 dollars so I thought I would ask here to...

    VHPaf with A2 and Duncan 78 first impressions

    As many of you know, I ordered a 78 from the custom shop and got it yesterday. I installed it in my strat, replacing the VHPaf with the A2 mag as a comparison. I've just got done playing it at a low volume level (wife hasn't left the house yet) and have a slight comparison to the VHPaf with...

    volume pot value

    I just ordered a 78 from the custom shop (trembucker, 4 conductor) and was curious as to the volume pot value. It will be going in an American Standard, Maple neck with a Floyd. I'm a little concerned that with an A2 mag that it MAY not be very articulate and may be a bit mushy. Any advise is...
