    So, I have two basses with the G6 size pickup shape -- a Yamaha TRB6 and a Aria Pro Steve Bailey Sig Fretless 6. The TRB actually has a set of Bartolini's in it, and they're great. I was wanting to upgrade the pickups in my Aria (which has some G6 sized no-name pickups), but I'm wondering if I...

    My 05+'s tolex is a little torn up, and it has a red face, so I'd like to get something that'll further distinguish it, and make it rather tasty. I'm looking for red/black tiger tolex, the closest I've found is burgundy alligator. Do any of you know a custom tolex maker, or someone who has a...

    I think this would fit in this forum? I've been trying to do more freelance work lately, and I'm curious to know what my options are when it comes to getting paid for online work, when I'm not able to meet clients in person. Obviously Pay-Pal comes to mind, but do guys know of anything else...

    I have a set of PRS phase II tuners which seem to be basically schaller m6 minis. However while these tuners hold tune fine they are a bit of pain to actually tune with. I far preferred the gotohs that were on my Ibanez's. Anyone know my options for direct fit replacements. I don't want to...

    I'm starting to order parts for my RG7620 and I realized I have no clue how I'm going to wire the guitar up. It currently has two 3-way switches; one blade style (switchcraft) and one Les Paul style. I was planning on removing the Les Paul toggle switch and replacing it with a mini on/on...

    Hey, guys, I'm looking for some suggestions for pickups to upgrade my Squier Affinity Jazz V. This is the type of sound I'm after: (you can hear the bass best starting around 4:30) I've got my bass wired with a series/parallel switch, where the default position is series (so, pull out for...

    You lads who get great bass tone, riddle me this if you will. I run two tracks into my DAW, a DI and the signal from my preamp. I keep the DI muted when I bounce everything down, and have been spending my time listening to mostly just drum/bass on the mixes to try and cement the low end before...

    So my mk v head has sold and i have a sizable wad-o-cash to drop on an axe 2. I've seen one on gumtree (craigslist equivalent) for a good price with the mfc controller for a good price but its quite far away and unless i can arrange a meet up with the seller im not keen on sending the funds...

    I'm not in the market, but just for the sake of conversation - what's out there? We have piles of killer tube options (5150s, Rectos, etc), but the SS side of the fence doesn't really get much attention. I know of a bunch of killer combos (The T21 Trademark comes to mind) but as far as heads...

    Seeing as the powertubes have died, I need new tubes. It currently has a full set of JJ's with EL34 power tubes, and fixed bias. My last one got a high gain JJ set with E34L's, but I'm open to options. What other tubes are equivalent? I *think* KT77's and 6CA7's, but I've never used either of...

    As per my other thread, I'm on the hunt for a new 7 string to replace the one I'm selling. I've narrowed it down to these 3 options as they are the only guitars that meet my criteria given the time and money constraints. Pros and cons of each one: RC7x Pros: There's one for sale right now...

    Some I have in mind: Loomis FR (in black, of course!) The new Buz-7 sig Something from Agile perhaps? (Hornet) And anything else that's on the market? My criteria is a trem (not LFR), non-basswood, and preferably no rosewood (never given maple a proper chance so either that or ebony would be...

    So Carvin's DC700 has been expanding its options list lately. Over the holidays it acquired the same fixed bridge option as the DC7x7 series as well as passive C26 pickups. So now, when I feel the time is right, I will probably have them make me one: alder/maple, transparent black burst on flame...

    So i'm thinking about making another Einstein(called Planck :lol:). I have the wood just siting there, but Im thinking about maybe doing a 6 string for the simple fact that I have no tremolo'ed guitars anymore and want one. But i'm not too hip to whats out there. I'v been lookin around and of...

    Well, here's the problem. I just bought a used (ex-demo, but absolutely mint) BC Rich Ironbird from Guitar Center. It was listed in their used section with a tiny pic but no specs mentioned. I used a third party import company to ship it to me since GC does'nt ship internationally. (ie. I...
