I just purchased a used guitar, alder strat body with a birdseye maple neck and fretboard, OFR. The bridge has a TB-4 and the neck has a Lil '59. I was wondering if the TB-5 would be a better bridge pickup considering the all maple construction of the guitar. the TB-4 sounds a little brite. Would the TB-5 sound uniform with the Lil '59 that is already in place? Any information would greatly be appreciated. I am heavily into more of the 80's type hard rock. Thanks!

Jazzing up accoustics
Hi, this might be a silly question:

So how are the Neck Hot Rails?
Well I've got one in the Bridge and it's a really good pickup, but I'd like an even fatter sound so I'm planning to buy one for the neck of my Strat.... does anyone know how it plays with somewhat heavy distortion in that position?

is the original trembucker parallel axis only?
i need a pickup that doesnt have a ton of output and im liking what i see/hear about the PA-TB1b but is there a regular non-parallel axis trembucker with this EQ setting?

Mid-Wattage Tube Head
I am looking for a middle wattage (40-70 watts-ish) with lots of headroom, full rich jazzy sound, Marshall or Fender type sound...I really like the sound of the Fuchs and Fender clean chimey rich sound, not going for Matchless type low wattage slightly pushed sound....I just want full clean rich 3d tone, and I plan to use pedals for overdrive...Lower the price the better...

Wanna see my new V?
My new '79 reissue Dean V. I haven't actually taken possession of it yet but Tim @ CenterStageMusic has posted some pics of it on the Dean Forum per my request before I PayPal him. Hopefully I'll get it some time next week. Once I've had a chance to put it through it's paces I'll post a review along with more pics. I understand the stock pups aren't too bad but if they aren't I have my eyes on a Custom/59 set I think. I'll keep y'all posted. I love new stuff!

Maple Fretboard care
Hey, I have a maple neck and maple fretboard on my OLP MM1 Axis that is kind of dulled and needs to be shiney once again! What can I use to buff this sucker iup? I have lemon oil but it did absolutely nothing to it. Guess that only works on Rosewood fretboards. What can I do to bring shine and luster to it? It it NOT a shiney hard finish but more of a pretty worn satin type finish.

Wagner pickup users, chime in.
First listen to this clip. Now tell me which WCR pickup you use, the amp you run it through and the style music you play. I`m looking to get either the Goodwood or the Herc set, as soon as my wallet gets ALOT fatter. lol
