Guitar forumers!
 

Yes, it's a bass subforum. But it all applies to you too, and we were starting to get a couple of guitar questions asked in here, so why not make it a shared subforum? :)

Come on in.

can't you make this subforum appear in guitar too if it's for both forums?
and also make the guitar&bass subforum appear in the bass forum aswell and not only the guitar forum.
or is this not possible?

edit: woops you already did :lol:

Or Peagg.

This is a really good idea.

ok. for the guitar people. can i put 2 hotrails next to each other instead of the humbucker i have in the bridge of my yam. will it sound ok?

is the pacifica scratch plate the same as a strat one?

what relativly easy mods can i make to my guitar. i've sprayed it pink already. and it's really turning into a bit of a project guitar.

AG, you should go to the Galloup Guitars school over here when I go. That'd be oarsum.
Unless y'all got some good schools over there.

It'll be pretty hot, and probably quite muddy. run in parallel it might well sound sexy.

Electronic stuff is easy.

[QUOTE=AG]It'll be pretty hot, and probably quite muddy. run in parallel it might well sound sexy..[/QUOTE]

how hard would it be to put a series/parallel switch in? also. would it be worth having them on select, so i can have one or both of the bridge rails on?

[QUOTE=AG]No.[/QUOTE]

really? they look similar. i guess i'll have to cut my own out. i really want checkerboard to go with the pink. or zebra print. anyway.

[QUOTE=AG]Electronic stuff is easy.[/QUOTE]

any suggestions? or just put extra wires in?

It'd be very easy to put in a series/parallel switch, and relatively easy to put in a coil tap style switch in.

Ther are loads of electronic gizmos out there, built in OD/Distortions or EQ's and stuff.

Have a look on [url]http://www.axesrus.co.uk[/url] for some of the pre-built stuff. [url]http://www.diyguitarist.com[/url] has some cool stuff on it too.

i was thinking of getting the hotrails from axesrus. my friend reccomended them.

what do i need to do about shielding? i have put a very rough kill switch into my guitar but it's badly done and is in need or a rewire.

i just didnt really get what i should ground to...

i think i might get the

£21.00

Vintage Tube Screamer/Expander Booster Circuit ,OFF = STOCK GUITAR ON=DUAL MODE HI-LO TRIM POT TO SET YOUR OWN LEVELS

and possibly even the

Distortion Driver ONBOARD DISTORTION EFFECTS 5 DISTORTION LEVELS.

just for the hell of it.

Yeh, Sad But True just got those, and they're great apparently.

Shielding you can do with copper adhesive tape, just sheild all the cavities you can and then ground the shielding. I means the ground signal is completely surrounding the electronics/hot signal, and it makes it really quiet.

Yo yo yo.

1: Greatest forum ever.

2: Yeah, I just got the QDD distortion driver. I was contemplating getting the tubescreamer one, but got the 2 switch mid/gain booster instead.

Sound quality really suprised me, the five setting son the QDD (in my own words) are
off,
light crunch-sort of 60s/70s overdrive,
same as before but with more gain,
really bassy, boomy overdrive
high gain distortion.

I use settings 2 and 3 to push my valve amp a little more, and it works quite well. I use setting 4 when there's too much treble, like when i need a really smooth sound. The 5th setting really can be used as a standalone distortion, but i like to use it with an oveerdriven amp to create a horribly messy, fuzz-type sound, and it also creates instant feedback.

Be warned though, it does require a lot of room. I had to do a fair bit of 'routing' to fit everything in. (routing = drilling + chiseling for me) Of course, I did fit a TBX pot and the mid/gain boost switch aswell, but the QDD has the pcb mounted vertically, so it need about an inch maybe more space from the pickguard.

excellent idea

nice

i'll just be hacking out any space i need as and where i can find it!

Good stuff, Alex

good stuff indeed

[QUOTE=fortyseven]i'll just be hacking out any space i need as and where i can find it![/QUOTE]
My point is though, is your guitar thick enough? My strat was only just thick enough for the routing to fit and not come through the back.

I love this idea. I shall be reading it. I'm glad guitar is now included too. thanks a lot wintermute.

[QUOTE=Sad But True]My point is though, is your guitar thick enough? My strat was only just thick enough for the routing to fit and not come through the back.[/QUOTE]

oh right. there's over and inch and a half of depth. if it means cutting all the way through i'll just put a plate on the back. im not really going to be gigging it much or anything more just experimenting before i touch my basses.

Ok i bought a bought a dimarzio 101 dual sound and was wonderin how it stands against the prs hfs pickup

i'm curious why the threads keep disapearing?

guitar sucks

It's like Bruce's Price Is Right or something!

Ahhhh... good memories..
