  1. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    Last yr i asked for some pickup recommendations for a tele i had built. Bought a set of Fralin blues. I love the neck pickup but need something thicker with more gain for the bridge? Atm imi leaning towards getting the texas specials that were also mentioned in that thread but before i grab...

    I recently refretted a 70's Greco Telecaster Custom for a friend. It was the first time ive tried a tele singlecoil bridge through my setup and it was glorious. This coming winter i'll be building a few guitars. One of which will have a tele bridge. Now i need to find a pickup to go with it. Any...

    Holy fucking hell. :holy: I mean, I knew the neck and middle were good, but... 1) Now they're through proper 250k volume and tone pots, darkening and smoothing them a hair, and 2) now they have an awesome, awesome, awesome bridge singlecoil to compliment them. Thick, powerful, and clear...

    This one should make a lot of people happy. :lol: Suhr ML Standards in the neck and middle, Dimarzio Fast Track 1 in the bridge. Oh, and a parchment pickguard. :lol: I still dig the shit out of my other pickguard... But, with a Suhr standard with a ML in the neck and an Aldrich (I think) in...

    Got this: American Special Stratocaster. Not digging the Texas Special in the bridge. Looking to drop in a single-coil sized Humbucker that won't cause me to have a an aneurysm trying to balance the volume with the Texas Specials in the middle and neck. Also, I'd love not to change any of the...
  7. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    So, I'm finally getting around looking at swapping the pickups in my white Warmoth. The thing plays great and has this amazing resonance, but it's let down by the set of Invaders that came stock in it, which are dark, muddy, and lifeless through anything less than a Marshall or Mesa with the...

    I've wanted to try a set of these in my strat forever, ever since Quigley bought that Modern 6 with one in the neck. I grabbed the neck from elq here and a middle from Matt's Music, and finally got a chance to throw them in. Initial impressions - REALLY nice. They're like really sweet classic...

    I'm looking at replacing the fender-noiseless pickups in my strat, and I was wondering, do hum-canceling single-coils sound better with 250K pots or 500K pots? I'm attempting to preserve the sound of the PAF pro I have in the bridge, and that has been nearly impossible with the noiseless...

  11. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    I like the Heavy Blues set, and they sound GODLY through Josh's Sunn, but that amp is a lot brighter than my Roadster and I keep tweaking the pickup hight trying to find a way to make them a little brighter. The output's fine, but I wish they had a little more of that bell-like chime I was...

    I've got another guitar mod project in the works. I have a 7421 body lying around from an older project, and have a bid on a 7620 neck at the moment. Should I win that bid, I'll pull the trigger on an OFR7 trem, new PUPs and all the necessary hardware to get shit going. Like the title says, I'm...

    I emailed off with a few questions to EMG yesterday and got this reply this morning, I mailed: To which I got this in response: Sounds interesting. I wanted some fucking chrome singles though to go in this bastard project I have :pissed:
  15. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    I started this at SS.org because they're the biggest ERG whores, but I realized I'll get some intelligent opinions over here too. And I :wub: you guys. Jim at Strictly 7 guitars posted a poll at SS.org asking about 8-string single-coil pickups. I've been talking with him and know that both are...

    OK, my SSH-configuration Jackson (alder body, maple neck, rosewood fretboard) has already been loaded with an X2N in the bridge, which I love, and will have an Air Norton S in the neck position once I've got some cash to spare. At the moment I'm mulling over a possible candidate for the middle...
