Re: Ibanez RG6003fm 2 hunbuckers 5way switch 1 vol 1 tone wiring help Ok, here is a picture of the switch wired up, this only works if you flip the magnet from the stock Duncan way, and will allow you to have the 2 inner slug coils active with strat like noise cancelation.

Hello everyone, I am putting together a one humbucker strat with a kill switch, 1 volume pot, and a 3 way on-on-on switch. What I'm wanting to do is have the 3 way switch do series, split/or parallel, and then have the last setting kind of act like a tone pot turned way down. Is there any kind...

So I really can't decide on what pickup for the bridge. I am keeping a 59n with A5 in the neck. I play through a Blackstar ID 60. I like some twang and gain. I like a solid thunky palm mute when playing chords in medium to high gain, but I also like a fluid single note tone to encourage me to...

Re: Can a push pull pot be installed and used if... You can definately add push pulls. You would of course need to change the wire color codes to your brand in these, but here are some examples.

Hey guys, can anyone suggest and possibly link some good humbucker tape, the one that goes all around the outside? I got some awhile back but it's not anywhere near as good as the stock Seymour Duncan stuff.

In general and or in a PG, uoa5 vs alnico 2 which one is louder? Thanks

Hey guys, here is the deal. I took an old JBL (16k total 7.9k screw 8.1k slug) and put a thicker then normal but not double thick ceramic magnet in it. The magnet is from an Entwistle HVX and is the same size used in the Dean DMT HWS Batio pickup. I really love how it sounds, I am addicted to...

So how many pickups could an alnico 2 lover love if an alnico 2 lover could love alnico 2's? Also where does Eddie get tight bass from with all that alnico 2 love? Can one just put a Custom Custom in the bridge and a JBA2 in the neck and have a Wolfgang set that sounds better because it's got...

Re: NGD plus questions TNT guitars (out of Oregon) on ebay has lots of pickguard choices where holes can be customized and bare (with pickups holes already routed) pickguards can be ordered. They do put the humbucker closer to the bridge then usual, but so does Jeff Loomis, on his signature...

So, I have this lightish (in wieght) ash (Probably not swamp ash) tele with a maple neck and a rosewood fretboard. I am going to be using a phat cat in the neck. My choices for bridge are either Custom Custom (can be magnet swapped) or a Pearly Gates bridge, either can be covered or bare. I am...

So I changed the magnet in my JBL labeled JB to an alnico 2 rough cast, and I seem to have a much rougher time using pinch harmonics. I way overuse them (on many pickups) so I know it's most likely not me, but they have gotten more difficult to pull off. Is this the alnico 2 or the fact that...

So in the old thread it is mentioned often to use a 59 bridge coil with the custom coil. But the description for the retail one states that they use a 59 neck coil. "Harmonically rich hybrid humbucker that uses one coil from the 59 Model neck and one coil from the higher output Duncan Custom...

Re: Mystery Wood I think your right! The spots in the end grain (hard to see with the resolution that uploaded here) was what was throwing me. But it looks so damn close to this picture that I would bet my "mystery wood" that your right. Thanks, I never would have even looked up pine end...

Re: Mystery Wood I don't really have a zoomed out picture. It's an Epiphone LP and has a pretty thin flamed maple veneer on top. The bottom is for sure mahogany or nato. I was hoping it was maple, but have been staring at both maple and alder end grain, and it's appearnce to me seems to shares...
