I've pretty much given up on using my Pod XT Live for amp modeling except for just screwing around. I still have hopes for it as a programmable multieffect pedal board. I would like to build a simple single-effect true bypass box. (The Pod, in all its multi-effect glory, would be the single...

Years ago I fitted my 1976 LP Special reissue with a big brass Schaller bridge - intonatable, with fine tuners - to replace the ragged-out Badass one-piece bridge that was on it when I bought it. I never did have the original one-piece wraparound. I've grown tired of looking at that big ugly...

Didn't you used to have an SG like this? http://dallas.craigslist.org/msg/533310707.html

Hey, all. On my Korean Strat clone (the Guitar Fetish XV-850), I can run my finger(s) just about anywhere on the pickguard and induce a very noticeable crackling noise. The guitar is very quiet otherwise. Could this be because of static electricity build-up on the pickguard? I've never seen...

Oops, double post. Sorry. :o

This is a shit hot product. It's an instrument cable with breakaway (detachable) 1/4" jacks on both ends. The cable is silent on break and reconnect. The jacks are held together magnetically and will come apart under a given amount of tension. So you can switch between guitars (or amps) without...

Last weekend my 17-year-old daughter had a couple of her girlfriends over hanging out. I was in my bedroom studio noodling around on my LP through my amp. Knock on the bedroom door: "Daddy, can we come in? I told them that was you playing and they don't believe it." Haha, so they came in and...

Thanks. :)

Hey, Muttley and / or Light - This question applies to my new Gibson LP. Is there an optimum break angle for the strings as they cross over the bridge to the tailpiece? My tailpiece, as it left the Gibson factory, is not screwed down all the way to the body - in fact, it's about 1/4" (maybe...

After a false start earlier, it's time for another Zaphod B product review. I hope it's helpful to you. :) Guitar: 2007 Gibson Les Paul Classic Antique, wine red finish General Stuff: This LP is very similar to the current LP Standards, differing mainly in the details. The body is chambered...

I wrote a nice, long review of my new LP, previewed it, and then hit the "back" button before submitting the post. :o Now I'll have to do it all over again. :( :p

Here we go, one at a time:

One of these. I guess I'll keep it. :D

There's a backstory here. My younger brother, Mark, has a longtime friend (since childhood) who found himself in financial difficulties and need to borrow some money. Mark gave the friend around $1500 but told him "It's not a loan. I don't loan money to friends. Keep it. I expect no repayment...

Why didn't I think of this before? :D

My enthusiastic endorsement of modelers as "pretty-durned-close" replacements for actual guitar amps, that is. I took some time off from my Pod XTL to get familiar with my Vox AC30CC. Switching back to the POD, I realized how much the modeler suffers by comparison. To be fair, a lot of it has...

...at the nearby GC over the weekend. Not to be confused with a LP Custom, it is one of the Gibson USA LP "Classic" models - it's the black model with gold hardware and exposed pickups with gold polepieces. I'm not that into black LPs, but this guitar really is a looker. The body, neck, and...

Anyone use 'em? I'm looking at the Glass Nexus and Timeline pedals.

Please disregard. :o
