Re: Guitar Teacher Database

My offer is more based along the lines of, if you have a song that you are trying to learn or a technique that you are trying to master I'll try help you get through that. Mastering a new song or technique ...

Re: humbucker combinations? uses?

I've got a brian may guitar video and he talks about his pickup wiring, heres a quote from a site which explains a little about it: Brian’s use of pickups is also unusual as is his method of wiring them. The pickup of choice were the quite rare 1960s design Burns Trisonics. Although these pickups ar...

Re: Hollowbodies & f-holes

So.... I've got wood for this PRS hollowbody II but I don't have the $8000 to give the rock shop for it :( I've got a couple of Hollowbodies in stock I can do for closer to the $6k mark (maybe a little less). PM me if you;re interested. Cheers :-) Take a zero off the price Matt and you have a deal!...

Re: DIY Electronics Learning Resources

I once tried to make a wah pedal about 20 years ago when I was 15, had a buddy who was into electronics, used a circuit from a book.... it didn't wah but it did pick up a local radio station and played that thru my amp instead :lol:

Re: Hollowbodies & f-holes

I'm not too worried about skills as I'm a keen woodworker, and have tools up the wazooo, but my plan is to build a CNC router at some stage so then I can get my engineer wife to model the parts in 3d and then I can click go :lol: (if only it was that easy....) Fark that would be awesome. I'm fairly...

Re: Hollowbodies & f-holes

Hmmm interesting, my idea was to have lightning bolts instead of f-holes, to make a slightly more metal version of the PRS :D OK, when these guys say the F holes make a difference, they don't mean it has to be that specific shape.

Re: Hollowbodies & f-holes

if you go to your local Library you might be able to track down (via interloan or similar) a book by one Donald Brosnac called The Electric Guitar which tells you how to construct a solidbody and an arch top (although not a great arch top) WITHOUT needing $100,000,000,000,000,000,000 of tools, wood...
