    Preferred Off-the-Shelf HSS set?

    Personally I'd value a neck and middle true single over a bridge single coil any day of the week. The Classic Stack Plus are good noiseless singles but their real strength is in their duality as both noiseless and true singles. They're valuable and hard to find used, so I'd recommend against...

    Preferred Off-the-Shelf HSS set?

    The best HSS set that you could get used for around $150 would be a SD '59 Custom Hybrid, Classic Stack Plus Middle & Classic Stack Plus Neck. This set-up is maximum versatility. The Classic Stack Plus pickups can be split to "true" single coils with the middle being RWRP. The '59 Custom...

    Back relief guitar straps

    I’m the same way... I actually have thoracic outlet syndrome from too many street fights and car accidents. I use the Neotech Mega straps... works wonders on my shoulders and neck. I’ll have to look into the Aircell.

    2007 Monaco Elite f/s $1300 plus shipping

    It literally twisted around... I’ve never owned a Les Paul so I never realized people cared as much about the switch directionality. pretty sure that oversight cost me my job at Seymour Duncan. I just told people I wired it backwards... the toggle was sort of loose and I twisted it up but...

    2007 Monaco Elite f/s $1300 plus shipping

    That’s very kind of you. The last guitar I sold has already changed hands twice... I don’t want anyone to buy this if they don’t actually want it... very very kind of anyone to purchase something they don’t really want or need.

    I just wrecked my car and have no money to fix it... I hit somebody else during rush hour going to a job interview... and I don't have a job. It's the one in this video... still has the SD Antiquities installed. I'll take pictures tomorrow.

    This whole concept is whacky

    More Snake Oil?

    I use bell brass claws with my Floyds. The ones I buy come with bell brass screws as well. I actually love the tone. The tone of my guitars shifted after installing them. It went from a normal thin Floyd tone to being deeper, more round and warmer. More low mids, less upper mids and more...

    Amazon Music

    Yeah the pay tier is mainly for offline listening & access to more variety. The version that comes with Prime is fairly limited... the entire catalog for many artists is not represented and some artists only have one album available. The pay tier basically gives access to any digital music...

    Good (new) Stuff From Marty

    I wore out Dragon’s Kiss...  never heard anything that came close since 1988. Everything that he has done since he moved to Japan I have absolutely hated. My band got to open up for Cacophony during their tour in 1989 when I was 15... coolest thing ever!
