How long do you let your tubes warm up before flipping the standby switch?

Does anybody knows what SD P-90's are used in a Hamer monaco 3 ?

Bought about 3 months ago from forum member. Upgrades include: Sperzel locking tuners, USA Fender neckplate, added neck humbucker(not sure what it is, but sounds good), toggle switch for coil splitting on neck humbucker, nut has been replaced(graphite i think). Candy apple red with maple board. Has large ding on the back down to wood. Virtually no fretwear. Light pick scratches. Just bought another tele and don't need two. Comes with Fender USA hardshell case. Hinges replaced, but all latches work.
$350 plus actual shipping. Thats what i paid and i just want to break even.bump

I've only had these in for a few hours now and I'm not going to jump to conclusions, but WHOOWEE! These are pretty damn fun to play around with!

I want to retune my guitar to drop c. CGCFAD is it best to tune to 1 step down DCGFAD then drop to C with the fine tuning pegs? thanks

My strat copy has an angled humbucker cutout, where the low E-end is slightly closer to the neck than the high end (Basically, it's the same angle that you see on the bridge single coil of a strat). How does this affect the sound (I'm guessing it's to make the low strings sound a little less bridgey) and will it give me any compatibility issues if I replace the humbucker with an SD?

I've always had this weird thing about guitars from the year I was born. Currently I own both a Strat and Les Paul from 1973 and they're great axes I love to play and feel like I have some conenction to because of the story of how they both ended up in my hands within a 36 hour period.

i have an ibanez acoustic that needs a neck cal. real bad, and i thought to myself quot;ok, i successfully did this to my SG, let's do it to the acousticquot;. i did the trick where you press down on the 1st and 13th frets then tap to 6th fret to check for relief, and there was no quot;clickquot; when i tapped the 6th fret. when i eyeballed the neck, i found that it actually has a sufficient amount of backbow (which explains the terrible fret buzz).
when i attempted to loosen the truss rod to create more relief, it didn't want to budge. i've been told not to force it if it won't turn, so i didn't.

Keep in mind I know nothing about anything about pickups or wiring what-so-ever. My question here is:

I put a 180 Pf capasitor on both of the volume pots in my LP last night and noticed a difference in tone today. This is with all the knobs maxed out. I know a treble bleed mod makes a difference when turning down the volume knob, but should it make a difference with the volume knobs maxed? It sounds great now, alot clearer and alot less muddy. This is making me want to keep the LP now .
