I know you guys like pictures so here it is and will probably stay this way. After reading all the posts and hearing how it sounds now, I just don't think I will do anything else. Yeah Raymond, I am a pack rat, just can't let things go. Not saying you are a pack rat. lol

I did the mechanical part of the modification, used it to mic up an acoustic guitar. Didn't record anything just listened through headphones and monitors, no effects and flat EQ. AND........wait for it......... to my ears it helped and cleaned up some of the muddy/muffled sound I had gotten...

Thank you, I will.

I do have resources (I know a guy that knows a guy, that knows a guy) if needed when replacing the FET, anyway, thank you (and the others) for the replies and info, got about 2 weeks before the parts come in, will let you know when they get here.

Let me think????? Ovation 12 string balladeer (love this one always in tune and for a 12 string easy to play) Takamine G series (didn't pay much for it but a nice acoustic, replaced pick up with a fishman) Ibanez blonde (great elect guitar with some serious deep tones I can't get with my fender)...

I just got to SA myself, you are probably already done with your project, wish I had started Homerecording earlier I MIGHT have been able to help but now I am buried with the new job :mad: Good luck in your future projects!! Don

Hi Y'all, I just moved to San Antonio and frankly don't know anyone yet that has an interest in music/recording. I brought with me an IT cabinet that I use for all my rack mount equipment (effects,amps,......etc..) I will tried to insert a picture but don't know if it will work??? If the...
