I have 2 Strats and a mixture of pups from S.Duncan amp; Fender. Somehow I am not happy with the way the 3 pups act with each other. In both cases I have the more powerful Stack pup from Seymour at the bridge but the original pups from Fender are just as loud if not louder! I have a sneaky feeling the pup is out of phase / wired in reverse. I read the FAQ here on this and I think I nailed this by revesing the green and black wires on my s.duncan - now the 'between' setting on my 5-way selector switch gives me a real chinky quacking sound - yet I am no longer sure if the Seymour pup is now weaker...

Do some of you make your own pedals?
I've been on here for a while, and keep reading about all of you that mod, and some of you make(?) your own effect pedals? what does this consist of, how hard is it, how expensive, and what quality can you get?

Best pickups/active preamp for Carvin 6-string bass?
It's a 1999 model, and the pickups are passive and has the usual bass preamp package, e.g., volume knob (with push/pull for active/passive), blend pot, and three active EQ knobs (bass-mid-treble). The volume and blend are normal nobs while the EQ knobs are smaller.

Blues Jam clip
Used a normal Plexitone as overdrive, and used both channels.
Had some good fun doing this one

Who says Epiphones are junk?
Man! I have an Epiphone Flying V and an Epiphone Les Paul (just picked up the Paul today) and I think that they are fine guitars working man guitars. They need Duncans but what guitar doesn't .

Shred said quot;Fredquot;
I posted a thread not long ago asking for advice about particular Dimarzio neck picks. Was wondering has anyone ever tried a quot;Fredquot; in the neck position? I know this is normally a bridge pick up and Satriani sure seems to get a wonderful sound out of it. I assume he uses the bridge pickup much of the time but i am not sure. Any thoughts or experience with this particular pick up especially in the neck. GOD BlESS!!!!!!!

Attn Gibson Les Paul Historic owners:
How many of you have switched out the stock Gibson burstbuckers on your Les Pauls (1amp;2 in my case)? The neck pup of my new '58 Reissue sounds good, but the bridge is a little harsh.
