Hey,
lately I´m playing piano more often and I connect piano with the guitar as you already know
I listened to Peterku´s acoustic songs and I realized that a clean or acoustic guitar are a great thing to play with feeling.

I was in NY for a few days ago, and I purchased a guitar plus a few effect pedals. I wrote a list of the pedals I wanted, and set a limit on 1400$ for the whole package with the guitar. The salesman seemed to meet my demand, but there was one quot;howeverquot;. One of the pedals were not available in that particular store, but he got in contact with another store to get the pedal shipped near where I'm living.
But when I look at the receipt, it seems like the pedal was not included in the price I thought we agreed on. Now, having received an email from him, he explains the fm-4 will be on a seperate receipt. That started confusing me, as I thought we had agreed on a total price of under 1400$ for _everything_. However, I have to admit he _may_ be right when he says he mentioned the seperate receipt, and it may be I have not caught that part of the deal, as things were going _really_ fast during that purchase (no, I'm not an english native speaker).
Also, I am a bit unsure when it comes to the taxes. The guitar I purchased cost 630$ (sale price both in the actual store, and on musiciansfriend.com). However, the guitar and the other pedals were put on a 8,375% tax. Is it right to put a tax on this? What about tax when musiciansfriend sells a guitar for 630$ ?

A '59 with less bass, more mids, same output, and less glassy highs. What neck pickup would this be closest to?

mang! I played the most awesome 1990 USA Hamer Chaparral at the local guitar shop today. He had just gotten it in on trade and the thing freakin' rocked!!!
Guitar shop owner doesn't really know what it's worth, anybody here have any idea?

I have a Fender am. deluxe ash strat with maple neck and the Fender deluxe trem. Though i LOVE the guitar and it's beautifull green transparent finish but i really don't like the stock Fender vintage noiseless pickups. They sound very compressed and lifeless to me. Nothing vintage really. So i'm looking for some new pickups and i'm definatly going for a HSS setup. I would like to get that Peppers quot;under the bridgequot; and 70's Gilmourish lead tone out of the neck/middle single coils and be able to shred like Satriani on my bridge bucker. For the single coils i am considering Fender Texas specials but i'm afraid they are maybe a bit TOO hot for a good clean quot;bellquot; like picking sound. I prefer true single coils with the original stratquot;quackquot; over stacked humbuckers. For the bridge humbucker i was looking at a diMarzio PAFpro (best bridge humbucker i ever owned in my opinion), or Duncan either custom5, Pearlygates or Pearlygates . Something that would give me a nice dark fat growl on high gain without overpowering the single coils TOO much. (A SLIGHT volume boost is actually kinda cool)
But i am open to any other suggestions.
Also, what about the volume pot? Should i go 250k or 500k?

Hi, my question is about pickups. I currently have a Hotrails in my Strat bridge and I’m looking for something comparable to put in the bridge of my Les Paul. I currently have the Duncan JB in the bridge and it’s not hot enough. I don’t want a full metal sound but wont something I can crunch with and rip pinch harmonics. Am looking at the Duncan Distortion but not sure if that will work. Thanks
John
Hey John, normally I would say that you should give the JB a try but if you already have it....I'd first make sure that it was a close to the strings as possible without stinrgs hitting the polepieces, if they are and it's not enough..

Holy Cow! This is an amazing combination! I tried this and was blown away in my lP Standard. I love the stock Burstbucker Pros pickups but wanted something a touch fatter and hotter in the bridge while retaining a big, open sound with a vintage twist. It had to also retain the aggression the Burstbucker Pro bridge can dish out. I think this is it. I had tried the C-5 in the past with 500k volume pot in an LP and didn't like it because it seemd to thin out the tone a bit or take away some of the creaminess. The 300k seems to put the creaminess back while decreasing some of the upper mids. The low mids are nice and fat. I was afraid of going back to a medium-hot pickup for fear of losing that big, fat sweet tone of a PAF but somehow the C-5 retains that character.
Very cool....

Boy, this was really bugging me:
I put a set of four brand new Weber VST 30 watt P10Q's in my Super, wired it all up correctly and the amp sounded about 2/3 as loud as it did before putting in the Webers.
I checked several times to see if I'd wired a speaker out of phase but no. White wires to the red terminals and black wires to the unmarked terminals of each speaker.

The Guitar Festival DVD. The multicolor strat Clapton Played. What are the pickups in it.
Also, strats out numbered other electrics it appeared 25:1. How did that happen at at guitar (strat) festival. BB, Gibbons and Robert Randollph were the only ones I saw not playing a strat.
Isn't Clapton using the Fender Noiseless pickups?
