Now, you guys know me pretty well by now; I wouldn't waste your time directing you to a site if I didn't deem it a case of Bizarro World gone awry. I led you to the 1960 LP standard with a 60s SG neck added on by Gibson and missing parts going for $65K, and we agreed-- it was total madness (by the way, it sold).

Hey Lew: About your 59TB Strat.
I've seen you mention it before, but it hadn't really quot;clickedquot; in my head, that you have a Strat with only a 59TB in it. I'm assuming you don't bang out a lot of Blink 182 songs.

My rock sounds from the mid 90s
I just found this track, I thought I had lost it..... This is my old band Red Giant from the mid 90s. It is a tune I did on an 8 track cassette set up I paid 2000.00 for back in 94 or so. I am useing a JB in my Ibanez Strat, a Marshall JCM 900 Dual Reverb head into a g12H75 cab ( the 90s standard lol)

sh-11 in a sheraton?

Why Am I Building So Many Pedals?
Cause it's fun and I can! It's become another obsession of mine lately....Here is my latest pedal that I've copied off JD's GGG website...I bring you the quot;Blue Magicquot; pedal....Sought of like a more transparent Tube Screamer but with a throaty tone and the mids are different..The mica caps give the pedal an almost clear hi fi like tone that is crisp and clear...Very responsive to pick dynamics and cleaning up while you roll your volume back..Notice no distortion diodes and no opamp....One of these days I'll learn how to make decals for my pedals.. Also....I didn't get my LED exactly centered,but close enough for Rock N Roll...

Tele Bridge ??
I need a Bridge Tele pickup, My neck pickup is STR-1 Vintage 54... The one that i need in bridge position should have the both worlds... twang of a tele and a strong sound when i need.. and i prefer it hum-canceling..

Hot P-90 sound in a humbucker?
I really dig the sound of P-90s pups, but I'd like more output for playing metal, and the hum-cancelling of a humbucker is a plus (in a humbucker housing, of course). The Duncan Phat Cats and the DiMarzio Bluesbuckers seem cool, but is there anything else out there with more output that'll get me closer to what I like?

Questions about stuff
So Christmas is just around the corner and I'm trying to decide on what to get my little brother. I was thinking a small amp, probably a Roland Micro Cube, along with a Monster guitar cable. He basically just has a Squire Bullet and that's it. No amp, cables or anything. He's been playing pretty much non-stop for the past 9 months or so and he's gotten rather good in that time. In that time he's been using my gear as well as my older brothers. I've noticed that he seems to be getting tired of his Squire, as he is always asking to use my guitars, as well as my brothers. So on that note I was thinking maybe upgrading the pickups on his guitar. I know the pickguard will need to be changed (I'm thinking of throwing in a Custom). I'm thinking I'll need to change the pots too. If I go this route the guitar will have a H/S/S config. Is there anything else I might need to swap out for the exchange and what pots should I use? I haven't been here in awhile so my brain has rotted and I've forgotten a few things.
Also, suggestions would be welcomed on which route to choose.
