Can I put this 'stupid question' here?
How is it possible to put a combo amp or amp head and cabinet that is very loud, in another room, and have the guitar playing in your home studio, and not have a long guitar chord ruining the sound of the guitar and possibly some time lag? You see the pro studios do this all the time, but I'm wondering how you'd duplicate this in a home studio setting without the expensive balanced input and output DI patch bays...
Do you run two DIs, with a long balanced line in between, plugging the guitar cord in at one end, and the input into the amp at the other? :help:

We are talking a length of over 20 - 30 feet here.....just runa low capacitance guitar cord? (I was going to mic the amp in another room with a balanced line so getting the sound into the computer won't be issue, it's more about removing the beast to another room should I need to crank it!)

I run a 18 foot chord that cost me a arm and a leg( and 2 backups that were around 35 or so), never have found a longer chord I liked, So if I am going be more than about 12 feet from the amp I use a chordless, and I payed way to much for that. I have found with the modern chordless units that I get little of the digital sound such as we got 10 years ago, however it is not the pure signal so many guys prefer while recording

Do I have to call in an order for a warhead neck? or can I mail it?
I'm thinking about my phone bills... :icon_scratch:

I think, Andreas, you can email some enquiry requests to them to clear up what you want, but the actual order would have to placed via phone if the warhead option can't be selected via a neck builder program .

I see 
stupid wiring question here...
I just replaced a broken tone pot (it just didn't do anything at all, think I fried it) with a new pot.. the original was a linear but the new one is an audio pot.. (which I thought could be used for both vol and tone)
it turns out that I now have 2 volume pots on this guitar.. is it something I did wrong with the wiring, or could it be the pot?

The diagram looks perfect. Too bad that's not reality. If it were, you wouldn't have a problem. We need something that looks like what you actually did, or there's not much chance of telling what you did wrong outside of wild-assed guesses. And it doesn't matter which cap you used or what color it is. If you overheated it, it may have shorted internally. They're all prone to do that if they're abused.
