    digitech whammy?

    I don't think the whammy 1 has wah effects. Toyl you deffinatley have the newer 2. The whammy 1 is more vintage, more analogue sounding, the 2 has a more digital sound and extra effects like the dive bomb. What I will say is only play one note at a time. It's not for use with chords (I...

    POD 2.0 - Swiss Army Knife or One-Trick Pony?

    The POD is all about tones; that simple, don't buy it for effects. Yes you can use it on drums, vocals, bass etc..and I have. You generally set the pod to tube pre-ap and bypass then add whatever else you want. If you don't have seperate units for these processes, then Id' say the pod would...

    that muscley fat area between your thumb and index finger.

    Well in theory your hand should gather more strength over time but I don't know about enough for what you are playing. -What guitar is it acoustic/electric? -Lower action would be more suitable. -Ligther guage strings would help -If your recording it you can do it in a few takes (though doesn't...

    Strange thing

    HI, I have a Jazz bass. I opened it up with the intention of replacing my pick-ups to the seymour duncan pair I've bought. The pots on the bass are all 500, the schematics that came with the SD pick-ups say 250 (which I myself though would have been in there). What are the implications of...

    guitar quality question..

    A word of warning. Don't order an epi; make sure you play it first. Some of them are really shit and some of them make the grade and are actually worth it, trust me on this. I'd deffinatley consider buying a used guitar if you know what your looking at.

    Making an amp

    Hi, How easy is it to make an amplifier? Would it work out cheaper if you knew what you were doing? How easy would it be to replicate an amp (expensive one)? Any thoughts?

    Problem with volume-control on my LesPaul

    Six; Can you explain what you mean about epi's whistleing and why not to change the pick-ups. Surely if you say the problem is the pu-switch than replacing that will remidy the prolem. H2H is right that pots are cheap. I don't know about the Gibson pu-switches but I can get them (good...

    Be honest: Do you use your tone knob?

    I use it quite a bit to be honhest. When playing I'll generally adjust the volume knob or change the toggle position but between songs I'll almost always alter the tone controls. I very rarely have it set to 10 nor 1, it's always somewhere in between. Depending on the song and the guitar in...

    HELP!! I'm going broke buying strings.

    Though it's not answering your question about that other stuff I'd suggest going up a guage or two. I use either Dean Markley blue steel strings (which are treated to stay in tune and last longer) and DR (handmade strings-the best).

    New P/Ups on a Gibson SG?

    Badgas Hi, To answer your second question; the '59 would go in the neck and the PG in the bridge. That would be the way most would do it. You may want to read/browse these links if you haven't already done so: '59 model: http://www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/Data2/Seymour_Duncan/59-01.html...
