Is it hard to install a pickup yourself? I havn't done much soldering before. -Scott

I really liked the song and I though that tone was really good. I did notice a bunch of clicks or something...didn't think they were intentional. Might have been my speakers or something. I would like to stick with a strat or statocaster and I am wondering what the differences between the two...

I don't really know what body I like the sound of. I havn't really been playing long enough to notice the difference. I always thought it was the pickups. I like the guitar tone of "New Found Glory", "Jimmy Eat World", "The Starting Line"...so I guess I am aiming for the "pop-punk" tone. I...

Thanks for your reply! I have another question...Does the body and neck of the guitar effect the tone at all? Could I just buy a cheap guitar that I like the feel of and have them put an Invader pickup in the bridge position? What is the difference between the hot rails and the invaders...

Hey Everyone, I'm lookin' to buy a new guitar. I play a lot of punk type stuff and my old Affinity Strat just isn't pleasing me. I record through a J-Station and I am not thrilled with the tone; it's a bit fuzzy and thin, not the full distortion you hear in a lot of commercial punk cd's. My...

Hey Man, Sweet Song. I agree, the overheads definitely are to loud and the phaser is a bit overused. I really liked the guitar tone you got. I noticed you said you recorded the guitars through a J-Station and I was wondering what kind of guitar you used? I also use a J-Station for recording...

How would you mic a set with these mics? 1 SM58 1 SM57 3 SM58 Betas Some Audio Technica Mic (really crappy) I have a Yamaha Stage Custom (snare, 3 toms, hi-hat, bass, crash, ride) and it's set up standardly. I know I don't really have the best mics for the job, but what way should I set it up...

Thanks for your replys! I got it to work. -Scott

I'm thinking this won't work, but I figured I should ask anyways. What I want to do, is be able to control the J-Station in SONAR automatically while recording. I have the J-Station hooked up to the MIDI ins and outs of a Roland UM-1 midi interface. Ex. While recording the guitar part to a...

I've noticed many people using RCA cables (with RCA - 1/4" adapters on the ends) for all their patching. Is there some advantage to this? Is an RCA cable and 2 RCA - 1/4" adapters cheaper that a regular 1/4" cable? I've noticed cheap 1/4" cables seem to degrade over time. Do regular consumer...

Hey, Thanks for your reply. I don't really have enough money right now to buy a nice tube amp, but I will try some of the other things you mentioned. I guess if I want that nicer doubled tone, I will have to practice that song some more. Thanks for your help. -Scott

Hello All, When I want a thick punchy guitar tone I usually double my guitar part. Play it twice, pan one hard left and the other hard right. I've got this song I’m working on and it has a fairly tricky guitar part. When I double it...the discrepancies between the two really stand out in a...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2519329531&category=23784 I was looking for a plain delta 66 and I can across this for only $150!! Is there something in the description that I am missing? Is it a crappy card? How come only 1 bid so far? If this is a good deal and a...

Also...another option is to open each project and after it is open select File > Save As. Make a new folder for that project and save it there. Make sure "Copy All Audio with project" is selected. Scott

Woops...i guess I just missed ya... -Scott

"File > Export > Audio" should do it. -Scott

Hey, thanks arjun.... I do like that approach much better. I was planning on getting a new pedel and i guess I'm just gonna go try out a bunch of 'em and see if I like the sound through the single coil pickups. Thanks! -Scott

Thanks Everyone for all your help! -Scott

So if I put that SD Hot Rails pickup in the bridge position, would I have to solder it in just like the existing single coil pickup or will the wiring be different? -Scott

Thanks for your feedback....I think I'll keep my strat the way it is and look around for maybe a used humbuckin' guitar. Thanks again, Scott
