My Experience I have to admit you guys almost had me worked into a frenzy fearing the kind of support I would get from Line 6 - but it really could not have gone ANY better. I just got off the phone with Neil (tech support). I hava a Variax acoustic 300 steel string (yes, I've heard the put...

Light, I'm not saving any money either way. I had access to the Fender single coil so that's what's in the bridge position now. I'll eventually replace it with a hotrail or mini-humbucker because that is what the bridge can accomodate. Going with a full size humbucker means a new bridge.:) ~B

Hey JCH, Nice to have your interest. I'm posting three pics of my recent projects. The first is a 62 (year I was born) Stratocaster I put together with vintage correct pickups, bridge etc. in Surf Green. The next two are of my most recent project which was a 52 Hot-rod telecaster. Vintage 5 hole...

JCH, In all honesty my number one guitar is an American Strat which I love. I used to have a Telecaster Flame Maple Top with two humbuckers that covered the rest of the spectrum. Unfortunately, it had a 15" neck radius which I found I didn't like so I sold it. I decided to build my own tele...

Hey Light, Thanks for the help on my Tele being wired out of phase. I was wondering if you might be willing to re-visit the post...I had a question about using 250 vs. 500k pots. If you can - thanks in advance, Bob

Hey JCH, If you get a chance can you revisit the wiring issue post you helped me with? I had a question about pots and was hoping you might have an answer. Thanks, Bob

Thanks to the advice given here I fixed my last wiring problem (pickups out of phase). That being the case I was wondering if some of you experts could look at the schematic below and tell me if I can use my two existing 250K pots to install the bridge hotrail (currently have the one...

Thank you JCH - swapping the green and black wires did the trick!!! I was hesitant to try because of the wiring diagram I got from Duncan Seymour - but you were right! ~Bob

Sorry - my bad - there are FIVE wires (Red, White, green, black, bare). I used the wiring diagram from the Seymour duncan website (in my original post). ~Bob

Thanks JCH - but it has four wires...which should I swap? Bob

Hey everyone, I've recently built my own 52 hot rod Tele with a Seymour Duncan mini-humbucker in the neck position and Fender single coil in the bridge using the following wiring diagram : http://www.boblutz.com/pickup_schematics.pdf This is my problem...The humbucker booms in the first...

Ahhhh, Flames!!! T-Dick, I didn't imply...you inferred. Webster makes a nice litle book that explains the difference. :D Truth of the matter is you are correct. I figured the best way to get people to help me out with their opinions was to be arrogant, snarky, and belittling to them...who'd...

Just went through the same process and really loved the Superchamp. I went with a bigger Fender Deluxe, but may still buy the Superchamp for a practice/backup amp.:cool:

All, You know, I was really just trying to be respectful [humble] about having such a decision to make (oh big winer - I wish I had his problems). Anyway, you can't get away from assholes on message boards no matter how hard you try [right t-dude?]. Moving on, thanks to everyone for your...

Mmmmmmm....tripe.
