The (zebra) '59n has a Alnico 4 magnet and sounds better than stock IMO- less boomy, more articulate. The (black) 59/custom hybrid was made by a Duncan forum bro before it became a production model. Reads perfect on a meter. The '59n has about 10" of lead left, the hybrid has about 4"- easily...

/FT PRS SE Torero w/Duncans Brief & Accurate Description of gear/guitar: Royal Blue PRS SE Torero. It has a tiny (we're talking 1/16" at most in diameter) scuff on the corner of the headstock where it looks like the buffing guy F'ed up (that's my guess- it was that way out of the box). It has a...

It's been previously direct mounted by Ibanez (came in my new guitar). I'd like to either trade it for a D Activator 7 bridge or $55 shipped to the lower 48.

Ok, review time. First off, I'd like to say this is my first 7 string, and my first Ibanez. It's also my first set of Dimarzio pickups (in this case PAF's). Ibanez hit it out of the park with this one. It's a no frills guitar, with tasteful appointments, such as a bound body, bound neck, and...

Re: Post Pics of your UGLY guitar that you keep because it sounds/plays Great! You guys are amateurs. Her name is Cinderella. She was my first. She literally caught fire a few times. I thought "What the heck, she looks good this way." You can interpret that however you like.

Local pickup is preferred, but I could ship it if you payed for shipping. http://yubasutter.craigslist.org/msg/4347099980.html

I love my AMT P2, but the only gripe I have about is the fact that I can't seem to dial out the compression in the midrange frequencies. I like playing on the neck humbucker of my number 1 in the split position while playing solos and stuff, and the 5150 sound just doesn't seem to play well with...

Re: Post Pictures of Amazing Guitars Someone's custom KD 6 string they posted on SS.org a while back.

I installed this pickup into my PRS SE Torero. I bought it for a different guitar, so it's standard spaced (the Torero has a Floyd). The first thing I'd like to say about this pickup is that it is the highest output pickup I've ever used. It's not muddy high output either- it's articulate...

What I'm thinking of doing is selling my amp and cab, and just using preamp pedals into a Two Notes C.A.B through some good speakers. What I've discovered about cab simulators and preamp pedals is that I can run them at a lower volume. This means no ear plugs, and the tone is still quite good...

I found 2 on craigslist listed for $300 each- one has vintage 30's, the other one is empty. Is this a good buy? I'm thinking about replacing my 4x12 with one, since mine is not super high quality. It's horizontal, not vertical.

I'm talking about the bare wire in the pickup leads for a GFS Mean 90. Every time I've handled the stuff, it behaves like deep fryed dog hair. It's the most brittle wire I think I've ever dealt with in guitar wiring. It's a good pickup but I would have thought that GFS would have had enough...

That makes you want to destroy things with your picking hand. I got the AMT pedal that emulates the 5150 and that sound just destroys. It's like it has this huge wall of lower midrange and while at the same time keeping this presence that makes everything cut just right. I threw my Bad Monkey...

I might be in the market for a new amp soon. It will be replacing my Blackstar HT-20, which is a pretty good amp but it's not what I need right now. I want an amp to run with my AMT P2 preamp. I'd be using the AMT as my high gain sound, and the VHT as my clean and lower gain sound. I like my...
