is it a cheap level guitar?

I'm looking at a brand new JB Trembucker that a friend asked me to install in the neck position. I know he meant to order a neck pickup, but I don't see anything on the box or pickup that would differentiate it from a bridge pickup. How can I identify a bridge vs. a neck JB?

anyone know where i can get a cream humbucker ring that matches the shade of cream duncan usues on their humbuckers? the ones i have are off in the shade of cream and me being as picky as i am would like to try and find the best match possible.

I figure I should probably get rid of these since I don't use them much. The wah is in almost perfect condition; it still has the plastic covering on the bottom and the quot;NOTICE: This unit is shipped without a batteryquot; sticker. The TS-9 sounded amazing with my Classic 50, but now I don't need it because my ENGL can do all the tones I want and more. You all know how good John's TS-9s sound so I don't need to say any more.

Go figure....ANOTHER impedence question!!!!

Do as the title says, if you want to live!
Show off...

I rely mainly on my amp to get my distortion tones but i intend to get one of these two(boss distortion DS-1 or ibanez tube screamer TS9) just for some volume-gain boost during solos ...... Which one of them is the most transparent and won't change much my amp's tone?

Okay. I have my Eyes on a Schecter PT, a Tele knock off. The only turn off is, well, it isn't the Fender John 5 with a Bigsby I have my eyes on.

I know this is a long shot. But I'm looking to trade a black Custom/Custom for one in zebra. Double cream would be perfect, but I'm not holding my breath for that. Anyone interested?

Jimmie Vaughan model VS. American Series.

From Xssive. Samson model with the little guitar bug, it works like a charm. Nice sound transmission, I can't hear any signal loss or tone coloration. Of course this is in the quite of my home, not on stage with a thousand other signals running around.

I've gone through a fair few different types of picks in the years I've been playing and I still haven't found anything I can really depend on. I despise Dunlop tortex picks because they warp, I don't like those little jazz picks cause there's not enough surface to get my fingers out of the way, I love the feel and sound of nylon picks, but not their tendancy to slip out of my fingers on stage due to sweat. Delrin pics also sound really good to me for about half an hour of use before they start to wear down. I like picks with a sharp tip above all, and I don't use anything below 1.1 mm. If there's anyone who can suggest a pick type that I have failed to stumble upon, please make it known so I can end this search and focus on what my guitars actually sound like.

Okay ive been playing guitar for a while and a lot of people say im pretty good...but i cant shred it up!!! My fingers just arent free enough and they conk out easily and i dont know what to practice to get them freed up and much more relaxed so i can just dance endlessly around the fretboard when i want to.

What kind of things should I be looking for if i think my amp needs a cap job..

Putting all of the Strats back to true single coil pups. This means one of them gets the stock pups back. Wired it all up nice and clean and damn it if the middle pup is pretty much dead. It worked enough to pass the screwdriver test before closing her up but almost no output at all while playing it. Shame too cause with the shielding the other pups actually sounded good.

1984 Custom Reissue

i know there have been a buch of posts on this but i am really impressed.

i bought a new sd custom 5 bridge pup and it is neck spaced. 2 years ago i bought a custom custom bridge and it sat for a month before i installed and noticed this obvious problem. i am either returning the junk to internet dealer or dealing direct w/sd. why can't sd pup a bridge pup in a bridge pup box ? my les pauls will get proper bridge spacing for the bridge pup! anyone else out there with sore rectum over this ?

Hello got a new Edwards les paul that has 500k pots JB bridge/ 59 neck. The guitar is buzzing real bad and I know it has to do with shielding (only happens when not touching strings or metal part on guitar). I put copper shielding tape throught the cavity mounted the pots over it. Now I am only able to get the neck pickup only to work, the bridge is not working? I removed all the shielding and tried again now it is working. I'm confused. I know I had everything hooked up right with the shielding tape in. My only conclusion is it is grounding off on something?
any suggestions? The way the cavity is cut it is really hard to get copper shielding tape placed flat and properly. So I have ordered some shielding paint from Stew mac to try.
