    What is up with the Jeff Loomis pickup?

    I bought a brand new Jeff Loomis signature pickup and right off the bat it's too wide for the pickup ring (the EMG 57 fit in there just fine). No problem, I'll just waste my time sanding it till it fits. Then I notice it barely fits into the cutout of the body, there wasn't any play whatsoever...

    What size locking tuners for Xaviere vx-300

    This is their copy of the SG. Hoping someone knows what size I'll need without having to remove anything.

    Peavey Amp Appreciation Thread - My Heads in Mississippi

    Re: Peavey Amp Appreciation Thread - My Heads in Mississippi My 3120 is overkill for my needs, but it is a great amp. Using low gain tubes make the amp more usable for me as the 2nd channel has less compression and gives a nice hard rock vibe.

    Need help identifying this EVH lesson.

    I found this on an old hard drive, but not sure of the origin. I'd also like to find tabs to this clip if possible.

    what's the name of that metal pick?

    It's rather thick, has a built in slide and it's gray in color. I made some extra cash last month and I'm considering getting one but my search came up empty.

    Improving fret access - strat lower horn

    I am planning on refinishing my superstrat next week and I've been curious to sculpt the lower horn for better access. Never done this before and I'm wondering if anyone can give me some pointers. I have a rotozip if that makes matters any easier.

    YJM Fury with Dimarzio Virtual Solo

    I have the Fury in the neck and the VS in the middle, when I have the pickup switch set to position 4 the sound is very thin, almost like an AM radio. Is there a fix for this or am I just trying to mix and match pickups that don't play well together?

    Looking for a new DISTORTION pedal

    Re: Looking for a new DISTORTION pedal I used to have one of these and it had such a nice tone: I have heard really good things about the Hardwire distortion pedal but I have not tried it myself, once I got a high gain amp I did not have a need for any distortion.

    who here just loves their single bridge pickup guitars?

    Re: who here just loves their single bridge pickup guitars? I really like mine, though I do enjoy the sound of a single coil in the neck but I have a scalloped strat for that tone. I'm considering making the cutaway larger but maple is such a difficult wood to modify.

    Alnico II or Alnico V with phat cat in the neck

    i recently put a Duncan phat cat in my xaviere SG and i am really enjoying the tone, very lively with great clarity for a neck pickup, the 60 cycle hum is very pronounced with a treble booster but this house has a lot of RFI for some reasn...i'd like to also change the bridge pickup as i don't...

    NGD - cheap SG copy

    I have been GASing for an SG for some time now, big fan of Toni Iommi and i've wanted to add a hard tail to my collection. Don't have the funds for a Gibson due to working fewer hours at work for the past 18 months and i could only find one of the Epiphones comfortable but i didn't like the...
