    Bass chorus, anyone?

    I don't know why, but Pat Travers' Crash And Burn popped into my head today. And while I think that particular one is probably a flanger, it got me in the mood again for a bass chorus. I'm one of those weirdos that got into the chorused fretless early ambient jazzy stuff way back when. Anyone...

    Upgrading inexpensive guitar before selling - return worth investment?

    OK, the title is somewhat misleading. I've got an Epi G-400 SG that I bought (used) recently. Well, I'm unfortunately going to have to sell it pretty quickly. It's in really good shape except that it's missing tuners and a bridge (it does have the posts in the body, though). I could just...

    Reverse engineering circuits

    Anybody here any good at it? and I'm talking about old school transistor stuff, not ICs. I've got a super simple amp and a pedal that I'd like to try to make new copies of, just because they're old and I'd like to have reliable versions.

    The New Tone Thread

    Hey, Lt. Bob, is your Ross an MIA? I know where there's a guy selling two of them, one MIA, one MIT. He says in his opinion the MIT is just as good.They are what I imagine are good prices, I just don't really have much use for a flanger. I'd rather have a stereo flanger if anything. But if it...

    Ebony vs rosewood on electrics

    What are your opinions on the difference in sound? I really would like some ebony board electrics based on the way they feel, but I don't know firsthand anything about the real difference in sound. Is the difference minuscule or life-altering? Does it depend on the type of music or level of...

    Guitar rack plans?

    Anybody got any guitar rack plans? MF has a guitar case rack that I thought was kind of a cool idea, and it got me thinking. I hate it when I do that. Anyway, I know it would be easy enough to figure something out, but I just thought I'd see if anyone has anything that looked interesting that I...

    Varieties of P-90s

    I've got four guitars with P90s. I'm going to replace at least one of the sets with mini-hums, and I want to eventually upgrade the others. I'm wondering how many different 'kind' of P90 sounds there are that I would want to have guitars equipped for. I like a couple of different ones I've...

    Anyone know if Strat neck heel sizes are the same for MIA and MIM? Are the necks interchangeable without shaving or shimming?

    Another general speaker question

    OK, I've asked about the percentage of tone that you guys think is contributed by speaker choice. How much of a difference do you think speaker choice makes if you're not driving them anywhere near breakup? Let's say you're playing at a really low volume, just enough to get a little clean...

    Best online resource for used guitars, amps & pedals?

    Other than craigslist for local and ebay for national, what are the best national online places to look? Any to be avoided? We've got a few local/regional facebook groups, but are there any national ones? Oh yeah, and I mean other than GC also. And what the hell did they do to their website...

    A question for Greg (and anyone else who want's to chime in)

    You've been very vocal about your opinion that the only way to really get a big amp tone is to play it loud. The gig tone is the combination of overdriven preamp tubes, overdriven power tubes, and speaker breakup. I was just wondering if you could assign a percentage to each of those...

    Anyone have a Boss FDR-1 (Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb-Amp) pedal?

    I'm trying one out. Of course, so far I can't make it sound anything like the youtube videos. I was just wondering what settings you like for what, and what guitar(s) and amp(s) are you using it with?

    Bass suggestion?
