I am thinking about buying a new guitar. Right now all I have is the tele. And I was wonder which one everyone liked the best. None of the places here stock either but can order anyone I want. I am thinking either the esp viper 400 or the schecter tempest. Either way I go I will be replaceing the pickups. I want this to be my rock and metal guitar. So which one ya like.

The magnets on the single-coil spaced Parallel Axis humbucker - I always thought they were alnico 5, but are they ceramic?

Has anyone bought/used one of these?

The time has come for my US Schecter Tele to say bye to the stock Monstertones, which are not really a definitive tele sound. The swampash body and killer neck are very similar to the best of Tom Andersons and Suhrs.

Is the magnet on Telecaster bridge pickup the pole pieces?
which would = 6 magnets?

...what a friggin' BLAST we had...we tore that joint up..heheh...didn't hurt that the place we played at has a 50,000 watt PA system..so now I'm spoiled =)

Hey folks, I'm diggin' the 'SEY' neck pickup I got - it's the older version of the Distortion for neck - but it's a bit over the top paired with the bridge pickup I plan for this thing (FRED).

I wonder could one of our wiring experts help me with this.

Hello,

Hails Guys...
i´mhavingsomeissues with my spacebar,HAHAHAHAHA AS YOU NOTICED... and with my capslock too... but i want to askforhelp on the string department...

so it seems that i'm stying with and Invader/Full Shred combo for my Jackson DXMG. Since I'm gonna replace the complete electronics and wiring along with installing the new pups i thought about putting a megaswitch 5-way in there. So the wwiring scheme provided by rockinger seems promising and the switch positions would be like this

I have a strat with 3 normal single coil pickups. I've always thought about adding two single coil sized humbuckers (like a jb jr or lil 59) to the existing pickups next to the neck and bridge pickups to get the best of both worlds. I really want to keep a full single coil set in addition to humbuckers. Would this create magnetic field issues? How would placing the humbuckers slightly inboard from the neck and bridge pickups affect their sound? Has anyone ever tried anything like this?

First and foremost, I would like to thanks to BACHTOROCK for spreading the good news amongst the masses. You can have both folks. Anyways, on to my question. I was wondering if this pickup combination would sound good. Double Screw 59/CC Hybrid. The twist here is the way in which the screws are placed. The CC screw coil (bottom) would have screws placed in the shape of a hill or mountain, while the 59 coil (top) would have screws placed in the shape of a V. It could be vise versa, depending on preference. Here comes the question.....Here it comes......Is there any reason or logic to why this pickup configuration would not sound suitable? If anyone has tried this let me know.

Obviously, its a heck of a lot cheaper to import from the USA these days than pay UK prices, but the 1st thing that sprung to mind, was the different type of power ratings and plugs and stuff. Could this be a problem? For example if i bought a USA dual rectifier and wanted to play it in my house in England?

I have been totally GASin lately for a Vox or some other class A amp. Someone point me in the right direction. I prefer 15-50 watt amps with 1 12' or 2 '10s. I only have about $1000 to spend. I am open to all.

TS 10 with chip from ts 808 for 100$ worth buying?

I am looking for Humbucker pickups to put in this American HH Tele because I find the stock pickups don't have enough chunk or beef. I play hard rock so I want a heavy but clear sound (not too much low end though). I was thinking of putting a Duncan Distortion in the Bridge and possibly a Pearly Gates in the neck....any suggestions?
I currently play a Gibson Les Paul Studio and I'm wondering if I'll be able to get as heavy a sound with the Tele if I put in new pickups.....or am I just dreaming here...?

excellent condition..a few minor scratches..buckle rash, etc.. 8.5-9 outta 10.

Alright, so instead of buying a tube head and having to go through the trouble and all (I'm a generally lazy guy) I decided to settle on the Vox AD120VTH. I just gots a couple questions that need answering..

Ive heard the dime bucker is good with very high distortion. Ive also heard its good clean. but will it sound good with medium distortion?
