  1. Past hour
  2. Yeah, I've looked into that. I have the schematic of Peter Frampton's pickup configuration. I may try it especially if the pickup swap improves things. Or, I may just wire it up like a two pickup guitar and disconnect the middle.
  3. A (as opposed to the) cool way to wire those is traditional SG wiring for two pickups but with a Master Tone (ala Hamer) and the fourth control as a blender for the middle pickup.
  4. I would if I were 20 minutes away...
  5. Well, here's my update. The OX-4 chimed it up but it sounds like it may be too hi-fi for this guitar. Not sure just yet. I may add a few pedals in front for more adjusting. After @geoff_hartwell's suggestion of using a '59n I remembered having one from a Studio I never put back in. There's still a hole in the neck position of that guitar ala Phil X. So I thought I'd place that one in the middle position as that tone is pretty much unusable, for me anyway. The middle position on the 3 way selector switch connects the middle pickup and the bridge pickup making a weird tone. In the original '61 those pickups were out of phase according to Uncle Larry. I didn't notice this when I was in the control cavity on this reissue but I wasn't exactly looking for it as it was a bit of a struggle getting the new pickup wire through the tiny holes leading to the cavity. I mentioned the OX-4 chimed the tone up but there is still a mid forward tone to it more so than when it was in a LP, so confirming what those in the videos were saying about comparing LP to SG. So I may end up putting the '59 in the neck and the OX-4 in the middle. I'm also looking at the little wafer caps on the pots. They are .022 but little tiny things. I'm going to reharnes my 335 so will look at those caps as a possible upgrade in the SG.
  6. Today
  7. This was already posted in the, "For Sale," section.
  8. Yeah, I definitely have that gene too.

  10. I do, but I'm not sure what that has to do with this post 🤔
  11. It'd be one thing if it was like another guy was buying it in store at the same time, but the day before and he didn't know it was gone? Lame.
  12. Beautiful burst! Love my '19. IMO Gibson really got their act together on these. If you check used prices, this is quite a deal even before upgrades. No way I'd take that for mine.
  13. Thinning the heard and this one is next. This is a great example of a 2020 Les Paul. This one has a one piece body with nicely figured maple cap in Heritage Cherry Sunburst. The following mods have been done. Kiss My Strings zamac tune-o-matic bridge, a very well made bridge out of Germany. Mojotone '59 Clone PAF style pickups that sound great, as well as PIO caps. Original bridge and pickups included in sale. Overall in great shape with some minor signs of play wear, but overall in excellent condition. Includes original case. True LP non-chambered weight of 9.5 lbs. $2000 + shipping from 01060. Obviously if you're somewhat close, I'm happy to meet up in person.
  14. I'm on my phone... "The Mo' You Know"🤣 I just checked my laptop and apparently that action option isn't activated 🤷‍♂️
  15. Yeah it appears your choices are: Buy three sets of strings for $33 Buy six sets of strings for $66 Buy six sets and two 1/4 cables for $40.
  16. Thanks for this. I'm due for some new strings and these are my strings of choice, can always use another cable. Good score!
  17. When you are the OP of a thread you can delete it yourself. In the upper right, just above your initial post there should be a "Moderation Actions" link. If you click it, the choice to Delete pops up. Click Delete and the double-post goes away.
  18. Ugh, another accidental double posting 🙄

  20. I had this happen, but only with "watched" items, never for having added something to my cart. But, yeah I figure it's a tool for prospective sellers to review leads (that buyers supplied themselves by watching the item), then offer discounts to the leads he chooses, either a blanket 5-10% to sent to all watchers, or excluding those with poor feedback, etc...
  21. Watched this last night. It was pretty interesting, especially the noise floor comparison. [HEY! IT APPEARS THE PREVIEW DISPLAY IS BACK ON SHARED YOUTUBE LINKS! HOORAY!] I didn't even know Positive Grid made an interface and was excited at another possibility, but when he demoed it, I saw that it had the same feature as the Spark Amp I find so desperately aggravating - the noise gate. Also presented grounding issues. Go figure. Pretty settled at this point on the iRig HD X. I'll probably be ordering that today unless someone has a better idea.
  22. ATB are about 20 minutes from me - I might go and have a sniff around it...
  23. I just picked up a couple of these sets, besides being a pretty good deal on these strings, (<$7/set), they throw in a 10' D'Addario 1/4" cable. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/NYXL10463P10--daddario-nyxl1046-nyxl-nickel-wound-electric-guitar-strings-with-10-foot-instrument-cable-010-046-regular-light-3-pack Free shipping in CONUS, too. 😎
