Made out of a Superdist and a 59B slugcoil, using an A5 magnet.
Neck is my usual APH-2...love that pickup.

Killer backing track.. very soundtrack-ish in the intro.. reminds me of and 80s band called Uncle Festive.. they did direct-to-disk recording in the 80s

Im ordering a Godin Signature LG, I like the guitar, the only thing i dont like are the neck inlays. Do you know if its difficult to get some nice inlays in a fretboard and for what kind of price.
Inlays as with all custom work prices will vary depending on what needs to be done. Very ornate or detailes inlays can take the inlay artist a lot of time to do therefore it will be expensive. So consider what it is you would like done and talk to a few inlay artists to get a feel for the price of custom work. I have a close association with Mirabella guitars. Cris Mirabella does some amazing inlay work. Check out his website and take particular notice of the quot;Dragonquot; fingerboard. Every bit of the abalone and pearl used on that was cut by hand! www.mirabellaguitars.com

I plan on recording one of my band's jams this friday, and I'm taking a Presonus Stereo Preamp, MXL large diaphragm mic, and perhaps an SM57, and my storage will be a portable mini disc recorder that will be run in stereo.
Here's my idea-I can plant the SM57 over the drum set, and the MXL will cover the amps and the sax. Both are cardiod type mics so I'll try to spot out places so that their fields don't collide and the sounds spill over.
If I run one mic for drums and the other for instrumentation into the stereo preamp so it comes out stereo left and right on the mini disc recorder, would it be possible to pan left on my mixer at my studio at home to get just guitars and sax to mix it down into cakewalk Sonar, then pan right and mix the drums down? This way I would record two independent tracks and I would have more control over mastering, etc. Would the idea work?

Im in the middle of looking for pickups for a new guitar that i picked up, one of the agile fat strats. I was looking for a strat style guitar with humbuckers, and i dont think it gets better then. I get that punchy bolt on rhythem that you cant get from a LP. I knew there were cheap pickups in it, and i was expecting to have to replace them, but they dont sound that bad. Im more looking for an overall improvement in the sound. for the bridge im looking for somthing medium-low output, so that i can still have touch sensitivity when i play. I want smooth fat classic lead tones, and crunchy honky PAF rhythem. I know that alnico 2's are known for being smooth, and alnico 5's are known for being tight and bright, so im not sure what to get. Then for the neck i want somthing clear when clean yet chunky and fat when overdriven. so i was thinking the 59 but im still not to sure. and the final part- the neck needs to sound good split, as i realy like the split neck tone. i dont care very much for the split bridge tone, its just way to thin. I have a 5 position switch so i was thinking ofr having it set up sorta like this: Bridge-Bridge/Neck-Bridge/Neck Split-Neck Split-Neck. This would leave me open to getting a Seth for the bridge if it turns out being what i would need.
i think a seth would be a cool bridge pup for what you are looking for
a pearly gates neck, 59n or jazz would be good for the neck

Been damn long since I posted here last time.Anyways...
I found a Tokai that I really fell for on the bay, it's situated in Japan. Have any of you guys imported a guitar from Japan?
It's a KATANA Guitar Auction, so have any of you done business with him? He seem like a very good Ebayer with 99% good feedback or something like that.

I DUNNO ? This don't look like a Texas Special to me? Anyone else?? from : localhost/cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...308026455amp;rd=1
Obvious fraud.
Giving the seller the benefit of doubt and he did find it in storage somewhere. Its probably the stock pickup that the antiquity replaced. But knowing Ebay I wouldnt be suprised if there was something slimey going on.

Hey guys, I've been watching the Rock Discipline video and I am curious as to what type of Mesa amp he is using, does anyone here know? I know he's using his older Ibanez guitars, so I'd assume he's using his Mark II C heads? Thanks for any help you guys can offer.
roadkings AFAIK
he's used almost every mesa amp made, so who knows. as of the past few years I know he's used dual recs and roadkings.

Same backing as Rid's post (thanks Mats).
I used a telecaster with a very compressed tone. I didn't really know what to play so I played a lot of notes.

Maybe this has been posted before. Not my cup-o-tea, but still, an interesting design. And, it sports Duncans:
Yajima Stringworks
That's really ugly.

Well, i have serious gas for a Schecter C-1 Classic, which is'nt a very expensive guitar, i've seen it for $500-750 on musicians friend and guitar centre on the internet. So i guessed that i could call a shop here in norway and order one for a resonable price.
And guess what? They want 1600 dollars for one of them!
That is just plain robbery, or what do you think?!
