I need to put new hinges on mine, and Randall says they don't have parts. Any recommendations?

Isn't the Pearly Gate Plus coil splitting? Shouldn't there be a push/pull pot to split it? I bought a pre-loaded Lonestar assembly, and while it's definitely a PG+, there's no splitting option that I see.

Surgeons, to be exact. I've got a '70s DiMarzio Super Distortion that I love. Someone (not me) put it in an early Fender MusicMaster II. It was in there when I bought the guitar in the mid-'70s. Anyway, they installed it using caveman methods (like a wood chisel) and in the process, cut off...

Anyone ever able to do a side-by-side with these? The Plus, besides the coil tap, have different magnets, otherwise it'd be a no brainer. The PG has Alnico II, the Plus Alnico V. I know that generally you'd find the PG in an LP, and the Plus in a Strat, but I'd consider that less important...

On to my next problem. Trying to remove a strat pickguard, one last screw has the head completly stripped. Too small to grab with pliers. I've tried wiggling the guard around, prying up with something underneath guard, no luck. This screw ain't budging. As a last resort, I guess I'll have to cut...

Title pretty much says it. The neck and fretboard appear to have been at one time finished with what appears to be a factory laquer. This is unusual as it is a Korean Squier, looks like '97 or so. Anyway, it's not a satin finish, and it's not that thick poly. A lot of the finish has worn off...

The dude has still got more chops in his sleep than I could ever dream of having. If I could just get the tone he had on 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps', I'd happily die of starvation in my basement, because I'd never put the guitar down. Did a really cool version of 'Black Hole Sun' too. I...

Has anyone used both the 3Q and either the One or the Six? I'm a bottom feeder, but I'm wondering if the 3Q is 'Meek-y' enough to be worth messing with.

The sites I've run across all seem to be geared towards tweakers. Anybody know of a 'for dummies' type of site? I won't bore you with the question here, just refer me to a reliable source and I would be forever grateful.

Not that anyone's done this to know, but what do you think a neck 59 in the bridge position would sound like, vs a regular bridge 59? I'm trying to decide if it's worth the trouble to find out.

Just picked up a used Randall iso-cab with a JBL E-120 in it. The Randall info on the net recommends using a condensor in it (not sure why), yet they show a pic with a 57 in it. The guy who had it before me used an MXL 990 in it. I'd like opinions on what to get to try in it, and whether or...

Anyone know of a relatively inexpensive consumer-level camera with audio inputs? They used to be fairly common, but I don't see them anymore. I'd like to record a live situation and just take a feed off of a mixer for the audio, bypassing the camera mic. I know that I could just record the audio...

I didn't know exactly which forum to use for this, so here I am. I want to get an Ipod interface and app, and there aren't that many interfaces and I can find reviews and info on them, but the apps are a different story. So, I invite you to give me your take on what apps you've used, and how...

WTB: Johnson J-Station dirt cheap. Must be in perfect working order and have power supply. Footswitch would be a plus, but not necessary. And like I said, dirt cheap. The cash flow situation is unfortunately at a critical level, with no sign of imminent improvement. I shouldn't even be...

Say what you will, but I like my J-Station. It's tons of fun, and I've got a V-amp and POD also, but I much prefer the J. My J died the other day. I don't think it's the power supply, but on the chance that it is, I'm going to try another generic multi-use ps. I can set the correct voltage...

What's the difference in sound? I know something like this is hard to describe, but I'd appreciate someone taking a stab at it.

What does everybody use? A pencil, or something special? It's for a Dano 12 with a metal nut, so I can't just switch to graphite saddles or anything like that. String breakage on a 12-string is a pita.

I'm wanting a looper, but I don't want anything too complicated. It would be nice if I could use it live, but that's probably not absolutely necessary at this point. I know absolutely nothing about them, so any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I want to move all of my stuff on one pc to a larger hard drive. Is it true that I can only backup data, and not software? What if I wanted to move it to a new pc? Would I have to move only the data, and re-install all of the software? I could have sworn that there were programs like Ghost, or...

If I want to replace a preamp (or power) tube with an identical tube type (let's say a 12AX7 for a 12AX7, etc.), but with different characteristics (more or less rapid gain), do I have to worry about things like adjusting bias, or can I try different ones just by swapping them out? I'm sure...
