Iommi Signature pickup review
A Tony Iommi Signature model is what I have in the bridge of my Epi LP. It is without a doubt one of the finest pickups I have ever played through. The amount of gain without feedback is enormous. The top insides are wax potted, and the lower half of the pickup cover is filled to the rim with black epoxy.

Audio taper
I just wired up a guitar using the schematic below, and the taper of my volume pot seems to be backwards. That is, turning the pot a little ways from 10 causes a dramatic decrease in ouput. To fix this, do I just switch the wires connected to the outer lugs?

JB wasn't too bright
Maybe sometimes we (I) give more weight to pickups than speakers. I thought the JB in my swamp ash Gamp;L was too bright or harsh, but I swapped out the Celestion Vintage 30 in my amp and replaced it with an Eminence V12 that I had in a box in the garage and, lo and behold, smoothed it right out. Sounds much better.

Dorky pics --
Hi all,
Here are links to a few shots from a gig that I played on Tuesday night. A band of friends were launching their new CD and we supported them. Some beer, mucho fun, lots of music, and some fun again. When the official (loud) part of the evening ended, we played on unplugged until 1 a.m. (too bad I had to travel like 140 miles to be at work at 8 on Wednesday).

Which guitar was it?
hey guys, I was in Saskatchewan on the weekend and I saw an instrumental Jazz band called the Bachelors of Music. These guys kicked ass, but I was curious as to what guitar the guitarist was using exactly. As far as I could see it was a Godin, with 2 knobs, one blade switch, and 2 humbuckers. The bridge had what I would call long saddles? Could it be the LG Series guitar that I saw him using? And does anyone know which SD pickups are used on these guitars because the Godin site doesn't say.

Help me pick out an amp
I`m downsizing my amp and cabinet due to family issues and the fact that I just sit in the house and play. I`m looking for a small combo amp that has decent cleans and also takes Distortion/OD pedals for some hard rock grind and also some gritty blues. Some amps that come to mind are the Fender Blues Jr. , Traynor YCV20WR , Peavey Classic 30. I know the Traynor comes with a Greenback and I`ve seen the other two used with Celestions. Any help is greatly appreciated!
