    Dumb Humbucker Question

    I agree with all of the above but, as an extra point, if the pole heights are adjustable and have been adjusted that'd give you a clue as to how they were previously oriented. If they aren't adjustable or you plan to set them up yourself then it really shouldn't matter.

    Violin sound.

    Oh, I'm sorry. Re-reading your post, I see you did say 'bow'. Do you feel the bow isn't tight enough when the screw becomes too hard to turn? I've never undone one of those but I have a bow here - Might have to investigate!

    Violin sound.

    You're talking about the precision tuners? You're a mechanical engineer so I'm probably telling you what you know, but it's most likely either friction or the tuning mechanisms are bottoming out. You can rule out the latter by detuning with the fine tuners most of the way, then retuning using...

    Horrible resonances

    ...and that's exactly why I suggested it. :LOL: The wear's likely to be focussed unlike, say, 12th fret.

    Horrible resonances

    He could prove it to the fret in about 10 seconds by just bending so the string contacts unworn fret. Could even detune slightly so the bend results in correct pitch, to rule out some other frequency specific issue. I think I suggested that a while back. It's pretty easy to lose track in this...

    Violin sound.

    Rosin on a bow is like chalk on a pool/snooker cue. You need it when you need it, when you don't have enough the instrument tells you, and when you do have enough it leaves a mess. If you gently strum the bow with your thumb and it doesn't sent up a plume of dust, that's probably a good sign to...

    Horrible resonances

    I'm not suggesting it is but it illustrates the point that the fundamental is not always the last thing you hear. For some reason that's in question in this thread.

    Horrible resonances

    Unfortunately this has been dismissed which, I suspect, is going to make troubleshooting and more or less impossible. The guitar is doing what guitars (or any ringing stringed instruments) do, just more than someone might want. Anything that can impede the movement of any string slightly can...

    Pulled a coupla guitars from storage for general cleaning and love recently

    These are two different people.

    Do they make such a cable ??

    Maybe it's worth ruling out issues at the DP02 by another means? Maybe you could plug in two guitars, or a guitar and bass, and try to achieve 1 in the left and 2 in the right, just as confirmation that the recording and playback setup is good? From a quick glance, you have to assign your...

    It's the same thing, yeah. What you call it probably depends on what you're using it for.

    OP just wants left to input 1 and right to input 2. Here's a visualisation.

    Do they make such a cable ??

    No, the 1/4 ends don't need to be TRS. There's no advantage or benefit, for your use, and it's more opportunities for the manufacturer to wire it some way other than what you need. If you refer back to my pinout, it really is pretty simple. Your TRS, in our case stereo, end has three...

    Do they make such a cable ??

    No need to be sorry. From your confirmation it sounds like the cable is just fine. You can prove that further later, if needed, but, for now, let's say it's fine. My guess is your recording input setup might not be correct. I'm not familiar with your recording device but it looks like you...

    Do they make such a cable ??

    The cable you have really should be what you need. Try just plugging in just one of the 1/4" cables, with a very obvious stereo track like you describe. If Eddie, or Michael, disappears then you're getting left and right separately but just not panning them apart at the input device. If you...
