Right now I have a Marshall TSL122. Got it for like 800 when the local Mars Music went under. I could never get the fx loop to work, but made some minor repairs (sodering some loose connections), pulled 2 of the tubes because its way too loud. But alas I'm thinking of selling it in lew of another rig as this amp sounds like the grill cloth is made out of a down comforter.

I really love the guitar sound on the first few Saint Vitus albums. It's really heavy and fat, but it's not very distorted or gritty. It has kind of a smooth sound.

Had planned to build a mahogany warmoth p90 this summer, but between budget, vacation, and gigs (at least gigs made the list it's becoming clear that it won't happen until fall at earliest-

Hey guys,
I've finally decided to upgrade my pickups in my Epiphone Goth Flying V. That's a mahogany bodied guitar, by the way. I've already decided on an EMG 81 in the bridge, but I can't decide on a 85 or a 60 in the neck. I play distorted leads in the neck from time to time, and I also want a good clean sound. Judging by this, I think that I'm leaning towards the 85, but your opinions would be very helpful. With the 85, I could opt for the Zakk Wylde set, which brings me to my second question. I have very limited electronical skill. How much would it take putting those in (The ZW set has Quick-Connect wires)?

I recently picked up a Dean Hollywood Z that I'm making a project guitar. The first item of business is to change the pickups. I'm not sure what kind of pups it's got but I know they're cheap.

I know in a tube amp that most of the overdrive sound comes from the poweramp, but what's more important for the responsiveness, the preamp or poweramp?

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?

Hello! I need some advice about humbuckers.... I saw a neat picture and bluesy nickname at your profile and I decided that you might be the right person for my question...

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!

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...

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

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.

What is the major differneces between a 1 3/4quot; and a 1 11/16quot; nut width? IS the difference noticable and what other factors are there?

So, my board is Guitargt;ABYgt;Boss Compressorgt;Fulltone FD2gt;Spina DS1I have a budget for some pedals, i play blues\jazz\fusion. Any pedals I should look at? what do you guys think???? Lets hear bout some cool gear

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!

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?

How do those work? does anyone have experience with them? Are they good? Seems good to me since I only tune down to d and just standard.....imput please

Hi, this might be a silly question:
