I am looking into buying an SSS guitar so that I can get some sparkly, articulate and sweet clean tones as well as some grunty overdriven tones (but with a focus on nice cleans). I am heavily considering a chapman ML1 pro traditional as it has a great spec and is currently discounted by about...

I've got into alot of ambient and psychadellic guitar recently, so want to switch out my player Strat Pickups for some that can do cleans extremely well (likely lower output). I'm after that really shimmery and glassy tone, but also need it to be able to handle effects like fuzz well for...

I have a fender jaguar (player series) that has a HS configuration. The Humbucker is Splittable but I want to change the pickups out for some lower output ones so that I can get some really clean and chimney, ambient tones (as most of my guitars have hot pickups). I am likely going to put a...

I am looking to get my first delay pedal and am torn between analogue and digital. The digital delay pedal I am looking at is the prophet by tc electronic. Can a digital delay like the prophet get a classic analogueish delay sound? Also will it turn my entire signal digital when engaged? Cheers

I've heard that it can be bad for guitars to leave them down tuned. Is this true? I would be leaving it in drop c mainly. Cheers

I am switching out 2 scratchy pots on a guitar (1 vol and 1 tone) and have decided to buy cts no load 500k: https://www.allparts.uk.com/products/no-load-500k-pot-cts-split-knurled-shaft-with-hardware This may sound like a stupid question but I have only heard no load used as tone pots, so do...

Which power supplies do people prefer for a live set up? I have been looking at the t red fuel tank classic but am confused about it's output. Is each of the 8 9V outputs 500ma (4000ma total) or do they all add up to 500 ma total. Anyone have any experience?

I am looking for a distortion tone that will be able to basically turn a clean tone into a modern high gain metal tone (e.g. toska, slipknot and Mastodon esque) Ideally it would be able to calm down to a kind of foo fighters level as well. I will also be running a tube screamer over it for a...

I’ll be putting 2 500k pots in a guitar (vol and tone) and am looking for a capacitor for the tone pot. I have seen that 0.22uf is a good one to get but all the ones I can find say “amp capacitor”. Can I still use it in a guitar? (And also are there any other caps e.g. 0.47 that someone thinks...

I want to install a tone pot into my prs se one (and replace its current volume one). Does anyone have any recommendation for pots to use (500k please) and where to get them? I have been looking at evh pots but apparently you need a special kind of knob which I cannot seem to find. Thanks...

My prs se one has a wrap around bridge. I changed strings the other day and noticed that the bridge was angled down rather than being flat I do not know if this is normal, or Is it fixable? Thanks

I was playing my fender bassbreaker 15 the other day at pretty much max gain and volume. I broke a string and put the amp into mute while changing it, however at max gain and volume, there was still some quiet output coming out of the speaker. I even played some riffs with it in mute mode and...

Different Tremol-No’s? Have been looking at applying a tremol-no to my guitar. However when looking at them I noticed that they were labelled differently: 2005-010 2006-010 2007-010 Is this just an irrelevant model number or does the guitar need to match a specific one of the 3?

I am putting a p90 sized dimarzio super distortion (dp209) in the bridge of one of my guitars. It has a four conductor wire so switching options are available. I have been told that it sounds rubbish coil split but sounds pretty good when switched to parallel, does anyone have any experience...

Just purchased a prs se one which is great. I bought it second hand from from a shop (no record of previous owner) and it has some locking tuners on it. I have looked around and I believe prs se guitars normally come with branded normal tuners. Could anyone tell me what these tuners are and...
