i went on a tour and took and emmons s10 with a single coil. almost all the stops on tour were fine, but one club (and iffy soundman) left me with a crippling hum. i busted out the hum debugger and se ...

sometimes i do. they always suck!

i've tried a bunch. probably the best are etymotic filters with custom molded earpieces. very expensive.

there's not much wrong with it, and it is a super cool guitar.

you need to clean every piece of it is the bad news. the good news is that there is no easier guitar to work on than that particular m ...

too bad he has such terrible tone!

ha, back to the woodshed for everybody.

i worked on the permutations from 80 going up and didn't find much improvement. then i slowed down to 50 and 60bpm and went up from there and it made a big improvement.

for a mid shift, especially one that gets to the honk frequency we're all trying to zap, you need a high quality parametric eq.

most eq pedals introduce noise, so a high quality pedal is important ...

i seem to have lost my part 1 DVD for jeff newman's 'swinging C6'. i wonder if anyone has a copy that they'd be willing to rip and dropbox to me?

weldon myrick was one of the first steel players i got into when i first started playing because my wife was listening to a lot of connie smith. his intro to 'hinges on the door' knocked me out. he se ...

a few years ago i had that kind of time to practice, and i also played a lot of gigs. i developed tendonitis in my volume pedal ankle. i had to wrap it an wear a brace to gigs, and even ice it between ...

if weight is a concern, i'd recommend the neo jensens that come with the tonemaster twin. after a decent break in period they are surprisingly good sounding.

oh my!!! i didn't realize he was back up and running. this is amazing news!!!!

yeah, i'm more concerned with the physical stability than the tuning. i figure if it is built with the same mechanics as the normal push pull it should stay in tune pretty well.

i've read that chan ...

they're very easy to work on.

parts used to be available via michael yahl at psg parts, but sadly he's not making them currently.

i've been thinking about getting one of these as a second guitar. being so light, i'm curious about their stability.

i had a backyard welder make me a bunch of those this past summer. very easy to make.

that's not a good buy.

you should be able to get a silverface 70s era twin for that price, which is much easier to work on and modify.

it’s two hole pullers, so it’s a standard rod, threaded on one end with a nylon tuner.
i had parts made my taking lots of pictures and taking the existing knee lever parts
to a machinist.

i've begun puttng the legs and pedal bar in a tripod bag. it helps.

so true, roger. there's no trick changes or fancy fingerings. he's just really musical and really skilled.

i'm not 100% sure the x10 comes in narrow mount. as far as i know, it was made for specific guitars, all of which had wide mounts.

at that price they better be pretty great picks!
