So I saw the Leps the other night. Phil Collen went through a slew of his signature PC models, and even played a Soloist. But it was the incredible finishes and great sound (if you're into that modern compressed-sounding sugary sweet sound - which I do kinda like) of those PC models that I couldn't get over. Deep quilted maple tops that you could see even from 30 feet away. Wicked a$$ harmonics to boot. I know it's also in the 30 gagillion-dollar rig he's using, but still...

The neck pup in my Tele is shot. (long story) I need to pick up a new one today while at lunch and install it before I play tonight. I have gone through the tone wizard, but I need some real advice from you guys that have a Tele neck pup. I play good ol' Ramp;R, blues, etc. I like the vintage tone, but slightly hotter and fuller for added sustain.. What pup am I?

Here is the deal... I read that Ritchie used fender pickups, then sd quarter ponders, then i saw on Come Hell Or High Water DVD he uses lace sensors (don't know witch but i think gold or silver) so..... Do you know which sensors he used (i know that his signature had gold) and which pickup would be closest to his tone? By the way it should cancel the hum (noisless). I like his sound in Rainbow era, especialy 82-83 (think Live Between The Eyes), that tone i'm looking for...

Ok folks,

This is a very important tool for me and it helps me decide on what i want. There are many pickups not on the chart with no DC resistance and the little EQ chart that tells how the pickup sounds. Please update this with the current pickups or give us an idea what they closly sound like. I see pickups forsale on e-bay then i come to see how they spec and there is no info on it.

Deep but crisp cleans
Lush transparent reverb

I need an in depth explaination of installing pickups and how to solder. A past thread, a web site, it doesnt matter as long is its for soldering noobs.

Well after practically nine months of debating, on every p'up from Rio Grande, to Tom Anderson, to PRS, I figured I would just go with 's for my SG (have EMG's in there). I have already decided on a four conductor sh-1 '59 for the neck, I am at a toss up for the bridge, between the the JB and the SH-5 Custom and all. The style the axe I am using it for it stoner, classic rock/metal (Danzig, CoC, Judas Priest, and so on). I don't really need a high output p'up since I figure with today's high gain amps, it really does the output for you now. Anyway I figured the SH-5 Custom because it's still pretty hot but still pretty clear. Anyways, any suggestions other than that would be appreciated. Oh yeah, my SG is a Gibson Gothic.

has anybody refinished a guitar with korina wood?.. cuz I'd like to finish my epiphone 58 korina explorer in a transparent red finish with dark red burst on the edges.. was wondering if that would work out cuz I've never worked with korina guitars

Well, I have been away from the forum for awhile. During my absence i purchased one of these beauty's. Here is the site basic info there.

ok, tube gurus...question for ya..

Harmony Central says they're passive...

anybody own/play one of those RANDALL BMF amps ? i know that they were made in the 92-93 time frame , and that they were made for SLASH since he couldn't get marshall to reissue the jubilee at that time . other than that i don't know much about them . like how was the build quality , tone , ect . thanks scott

Check this out, here's my idea for my next warmoth build after I finish the current one.

i'm getting a carvin ct6m as some of you may know, and I know i'm going to have to change the pickups. I play fusion, blues, and hard rock. I already chose to have an Alnico 2 pro in the neck
What should I get for the bridge?

has anyone tried a 59 paired up with a gibson dirty finger in the bridge or paired up with a prs hfs pickup?if so how did it sound?

Um recently bought a Marshall AVT50 Combo like the one below....its good in all but it lacks really heavy metal type distortion. I went to guitar center and played on the Crate XT120R like the one below and fell in love with its solo channel.

I need a bridge pu for this guitar
here are the spec's

Hey guys, just up late and wanting to have a little fun. I've been thinking about this for a while and I finally came up with my list of my ten favorite guitarists. Note these are only my favorites, I'm not trying to make any quot;bestquot; or most influential list. Give it some thought and post your list. Now on to mine:
