    FS: Orange TH30H guitar head w/ cover, footswitch

    $800. Selling my TH30 head so I can buy an OR15! This one is in great shape - no dings, but a few little (black) scuff marks from taking it to a handful of gigs. I recently bought a cover for it (that I have yet to use), so that will limit any further scuffing. The cover and an official Orange...

    FS: Sperzel 6-inline locking tuners

    $40 + shipping (I'll calculate that). They are maybe a month old, I just don't like them (but I threw out the box so I can't return them). The finger screws are too skinny for my taste.

    Walnut "Strat" I just built

    In fairness, I'm also using a Boogie Roadster, which has 4 incredibly versatile channels. I thought about adding coil tap switches, but I really don't think it's necessary with the walnut body. Bright, but really full tone. I love walnut.

    Walnut "Strat" I just built

    My '79 Gibson The Paul is solid as a rock and there is hardly any finish left on the neck (all walnut). I think some woods just handle it better, though I do think the neck could use a fresh coat to slick it up a bit.

    Walnut "Strat" I just built

    Eh. Even finished necks will move somewhat. He is abnormally picky is all. I don't mind a little buzzing. Goncalo alves is supposed to be extremely stable, though, so we'll see how it goes. So far, I'm not real worried about it. And most people with similar necks have had no issues. Well, I...

    Walnut "Strat" I just built

    Eh, I will probably not take your advice :p All that I've read from other owners of these necks say they've had them unfinished for years and they're fine. I'll probably just have to take extra good care of it. My bassist prefers unfinished maple necks on his Music Man basses and hasn't had any...

    Walnut "Strat" I just built

    I don't think you're supposed to finish these woods. Warmoth doesn't offer finishes as an option for them because they are naturally quite oily. I was going to do tru oil on the body, but the wood shop near my house recommended this oil and urethane finish they had and that worked really well...

    Walnut "Strat" I just built

    For your viewing pleasure, here is a project guitar I just finished. I hardly think it can be called a Strat, despite the body shape, because it sounds nothing like a Strat. I just like that shape. Walnut body, goncolo alves neck, pau ferro fretboard. Pearly Gates in the neck, JB in the bridge...

    Help with tone suck on my pedal board

    I'm using a Pedal Power 2+. I try not to skimp on my gear :) I think the EP Booster at the front of the chain and the Vortex buffering at the end is getting me to an acceptable level of tone loss. I guess there's no real way to have both lots of fun pedals and no tone suck...

    Help with tone suck on my pedal board

    The Soundblox isn't really a fuzz, and I primarily use the Fuzz Factory. The Mastotron is in no way essential, though it cooperates better with buffers in front of it. I don't really use the Soundblox either, but I like both of those pedals, so it seemed like I might as well have them there. I...

    Help with tone suck on my pedal board

    I was tracking down a weird resonance when running my McCarty into my Roadster and the source seems to be my pedal board, so I am trying to figure out how to get as close to the sound of no pedals as possible. Here is my signal chain - maybe someone has some pointers on how I might rearrange...

    FS: Interfaces, pickups, wireless - studio downsizing sale!

    Adding this Audix DP7 and a spare D2 to the list. $600 for the DP7, $60 for the D2. I don't have a clamp for the spare D2, but all the mics in the kit have clamps, clips, etc. One of the clamps is the screw-on kind instead of the spring-loaded kind, though, because it works better with Gretsch...

    FS: Interfaces, pickups, wireless - studio downsizing sale!

    Adding this T.Rex Fuel Tank Chameleon to the list for $80. The only way you can really tell it has ever been used is because I put velcro on the bottom. Unlike the Voodoo Labs units, this one doesn't mount to the underside of a Pedaltrain board, so I stuck it on top. On the other hand, all of...
