    Wiring Single Coils in Series

    I did this wiring with my single coil guitar and like it.  Gets you a bunch of different parallel and series combos with only 1 switch. http://www.guitarnuts.com/wiring/mikerichardson.php

    Wiring options for 3 P-90's

    I did this one with 3 single coils (did not add phase switch): http://www.guitarnuts.com/wiring/mikerichardson.php Whats nice about it is that it gives you a bunch of parallel or series combos.  We're used to parallel combos, but putting them in series adds a bit of punch to them.  Virtual...

    strat/humbucker tones on a single guitar

    Here is a wiring scheme I use that gives you a couple of Fender type tones with 2 HB's: http://www.dimarzio.com//media/diagrams/E.pdf No hum either.

    My WGD is made of this.  Sustains forever.

    JCM 900 tube replacement

    Thanks for feedback guys.  I think I will leave this one to the experts and stay alive.  My dog would miss me too much :)

    JCM 900 tube replacement

    A few weeks ago it started sounding crackly almost like a speaker was blown.  I have also noticed that it doesn't seem to get as loud as it used to either (could be going deaf but I don't think so yet).  I have never replaced the tubes and it is over 10 years old.  Talking to a few people, they...

    JCM 900 tube replacement

    Ok. I am diving into this amp repair thing... Anyone have either one of these books I found on stewmac? How To Service Your Own Tube Amp The Tube Amp Book If so, does it show you how to change out tubes and bias an amp? Is there a better book out there?

    JCM 900 tube replacement

    I need new tubes for my JCM 900.  I have never replaced tubes before.  Any suggestions on what tubes or installation techniques?

    New pickup.

    The superD is a great pickup.  It sounds good for both crunch and cleans and can fit in a bunch of music styles.  It also is not treble heavy.

    build checklist

    Funny, I had the exact same thing happen to me.  Bought a t-shirt and some stickers or something :) I've met a bunch of people with that t-shirt though.  Either Warmoth customers or curious joes.

    P-rail + Little 59 on tele

    Sorry no helpo with wiring on this one but I like your combos.  P-rails in the neck is going to be a future build for me.

    My W strats pickups.

    Hot rails is a great pickup.  I have it in the bridge position on one of my guitars and it has a nice growl to it.  It would probably be great in the neck position for metal but I'm not sure how it would clean up.  From what you listed as music styles, you might not want to clean up that much...

    My W strats pickups.

    What about a cool rails in the neck?  It is good for the harder stuff but still cleans up nice.  You could split it with the middle PU in the 4 position to give you more quack.

    P-90 in a Strat bridge

    What about one of those P-rails?  You would get P-90, HB, and sc.

    Opinions if you would..

    How often do you play clean?  If the answer is a lot, splitting the HB's makes more sense. I am a fan of this setup: http://www.dimarzio.com//media/diagrams/E.pdf It gives you a couple of hum-free split options without a push-pull or extra switches.  Pretty clean setup imo.
