When is this Stack-plus pickup going to be available? Can anyone give me a discription of what they are supposed to look and sound like?
Should be out this year is what I heard last...they sound VERY close to vintage style Strat pickups w/o the hum, they look like normal Strat pickups, the covers can not be taken off and they say on the covers.

ok i included some photos of my wiring.
IT WONT STOP HUMMING!!!
i cant understand what is wrong

So I picked this little beauty up at the music store last week on Tuesday before a gig on Wednesday, and MAN is it a great little pedal. I guess it's more of a noise GATE than general reduction, but either way it works really well, which is probably nothing you guys haven't heard before.
I'm surprised how much one knob (threshold) can really do, since I haven't bothered with the decay knob yet... What I wanted in a noise suppressor was that silence in between chords or individual notes.... or complete silence and then.... WHAM loud noise out of nowhere, that real Cowboys From Hell and Domination punch. That's exactly what I got, and boy does it cut out my Randall's noise in general, I can't wait to try it with the EQ that should get here any day now!
Pointless post? Sure. Just felt like venting about my birthday gift

Hey folks.. I'm wanting to chage out the pickup in my coming soon Ibanez.. I'm looking for a Duncan Distortion F Spaced in Black. I'd also consider a Dimarzio Distortion in black F spaced or Tone Zone or Air Zone.. or Fred or ?
The only other Duncan I really think I'd try would be the invader! PM me with what you have and how much you want to send here to Indiana.. Please include shipping charge! I'll get back with you within a day or two at the most.. probably within the same day..
I'm most interested in the Duncan Distortion, but would also be interested in the Tone Zone, or better yet the Air Zone.. Black, Red, Green, Yellow, doesn't matter as long as it's not pink! hehehehehe..

I've been looking at some double-neck guitars and was wondering if anone here has one or has played one and how you liked it. It seems like it would be cool to be ale to switch between a twelve and six string without changing guitars. I also wont a guitar thats very eye catching. I've mostly been looking at the epiphone and agile 12/6's the gibson is alittle out of my budget.
I had a 1275 years ago, yes they are and look cool, but:
It's not a guitar you would want to play all night, VERY HEAVY;very much a beast to handle.-
It seems it takes a long time to tune all 18 strings, and you are worn out by the time you finish!-

I am about to replace the tubes in my Mesa Rect-O-Verb, and am wondering what I should get brandwise, etc? I have never bought tubes before because the ones I got with the amp when I bought it used have lasted me til now. Any ideas? Also, does anyone have an estimation of how much it will cost me to get a brand new set of tubes? Anyone who owns a Mesa Single Rectifier please chime in. Thanks.
Also, how easy is it to install them? I'm wondering if I could do it myself and save some cash or if I should hire someone to do it for me.
Check out Groove Tubes on the web. Lots of good info there.

While I was in Vegas, I went to Guitar Center and played a Fender Standard MIM Tele and I LOVED it! The feel was right, and the tone was oh soo...Beatles-esque! It was a pleasure to play, as far as my vintage guitar playing fetishes were concerned Now here's the twist: I also played the USA stuff like the Butterscotch RI and didn't think anything of it. They just didn't feel right or sound right to me. They weren't duds either, I just didn't have a firm liking for those MIA Teles, I guess In any case, this was quite strange to me because this is probably the first time I've preferred the lower-end model of a single guitar brand to the higher-end model I also loved the Daisy Rock guitars. Felt really smooth in my nimble fingers, with an economic fit to the body. Really dug them, the tone was right, the feel was superb, and the look...well, you'd have to win a coupla guitar battles to be safe playing that in public! Hahaha, but I plan to do something of the like, should I decide to get one.The last thing I played was a Crate V-Series. I was completely blown away. These amps have a very pleasing clean channel, and an even MORE pleasing gain structure. The tone reminded me of a lot of '70s rock, and occasionally The Beatles when the gain was rolled down. Fairly Marshall-esque, I'd say, but overall just very sweet and natural. I would get my hands on these amps if I could, their tone really justifies all the hype.Oh you poor sap with those Daist Rock guitars haha I kid I kid, and I played one of those Crate V series at the Gibson Factory in Nashville for literally a whole week all day everyday while the women shopped. Sounded amazing and I actually didn't know it was a Crate till months after and I was blown away.
I've never been to GC in Vegas, but I could LIVE at Ed Roman's World's Largest Guitar Store! It truly is the best guitar store I've ever walked into! Despite what people say about him on the net, his store is really something.
SNOBS! I tell you. I keep telling you guys how good those amps are but do you listen? NO!

So my girlfriend has made me a nice fancy vest for my Symphony concerts and such, but today at Walmart we got an idea. What about making a funky cloth cover for my guitar. Made of some really soft material that's fuzzy or whatever I wanted! Anybody know of anyone that makes these? I would really like to have a black cloth cover for my schecter cuz the paint is already getting worn down since it's just a satin finish. Sound like a good idea? Pointers? But I'd really like to know if anybody makes these!
They were out in the 80's and were called AxSak's or something like that. I think they paid Jennifer Batten to endorse them, her big credit at the time was working with Michael Jackson.
They were about as useless as tits on a bull then. I'm not thinking anything much has changed since.

Tonight, I did a preamp tube shootout, just to see what pre tubes are the KING of high gain. The test amp was my extremely good sounding 50W Marshall Jubilee on Jubilee 4-12 w/Vin 30's and Tesla JJ E-34L's (10% higher output than EL-34's)
I actually lined up my whole collection of preamp tubes and started popping them in one after the next in the 1st position. The other 2 are GT12AX7C's.
I listened to the amp's gain from 3 to 10, and listened for thickness, tightness, and sustain on chords and high notes.

So, how many guitars have you owned over the years including the ones you own now. Last time I counted it was like 150 spanning almost 30 years. Mostly Gibson, Fender, and Gamp;L but I played Ibanez and Kramer pretty hard back in the 80's and had my share of those too. Lately I have been getting into Jackson/Charvel and ESP and most recently Dean. I also have had a couple of Agiles and come and go in the last couple of months - cool guitars for the price incidentally. Just searching for the mojo man
Let's hear about yours!
I still have all of mine, so 5.
