I just don't think I'm going to be happy with a single coils sized anything in my G&L Strat. It is ash and very bright. I'm used to RG's. I would like to fit my strat for good instrumental rock tones. I want to use a Dimarzio as well. I've considered a Paf Pro, Tone Zone, Air Zone, Norton, and...

I've got an '88 Ibanez 540S Saber with the original Ibanez hard shell case that I'm considering trading or selling. This guitar was assembled in the US from Japanese-made parts in '88 and comes in a beautiful "Lipstick Red" finish. This is one of the earliest Sabers, as you can tell by the...

....and the insurance will pay for; A guitar An Amp and A cable. Nothing else. You have to gig with that, and that's it. What do you get?

I am looking for a new guitar, mainly for recording as of right now. What I want is something with 2 humbuckers, double cutaway, not too thin of a neck, and a fixed bridge. I don't really have a budget, but I don't wanna go too high. I can get into the Fender Fat Strats either that I tried...

I feel guitars have great beauty like females do. They are beautiful, curvy and sing with such grace that only a female name matches this level. So lets hear some name and why the name was given. I have a Jem 20th and I am her first. I decided on the name Amenah (pronunciation is AhMEEnah)...

Maple or rosewood? All my Ibanez and PRS guitars are rosewood, so I've never really spent any serious time with a maple fretboard. Is there really that much of a tonal difference between the two, or are the differences more to do with the general feel of the maple compared to rosewood, or purely...

I love them, guitars without them look bare... Except of course for a really nice top...that would be the exception but even then some still look like they're missing something...

fit my fender standard (mex)? I looked in my standard, and the bridge seems to be routed with enough room for a humbucker and I'd like to see how my tone zone sounds in it.

NOTE I AM A NOVICE GUITAR PLAYER AND AM JUST SEEKING INFORMATION FROM MORE SEASONED PLAYERS SO I CAN UNDERSTAND THE BENEFITS OF A FLOYD ROSE. ARE THERE ANY? THANK YOU. BASED ON MY NOVICE LEVEL HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS: Coming from a newbie- I know some of you guys swear by them but I don’t get why...

I thought this would be a funny thread. I just spent an hour trying to remember everything i had and what i still have. It's bad, i have a horrible memory. It runs in the family. Also, i have a large collection at my young age. However, i thought i'd be worth a few yucks if everyone shared a...

Up for sale is a sunburst Schecter C-1 Classic Electric Guitar. Used. Still under warranty. I was the first owner, bought for 700 dollars 6 months ago. It is time to let her go. I am in need for money for another guitar i purchased that suits my needs a bit more and it hurts me very badly to...

Sorry if this question has been asked already! Mine was a black Satellite Les Paul copy, bought in 1979 from a local tobacconists that also sold a range of cheap guitars. The body was a sort of plywood although you couldnt tell because of the thick black finish, the neck was a bolt on but...

So i've just come back from my journey picking up a Squier Stratocaster i bought, didnt cost me much , AND its Made In Korea :D now from what i've heard, the korean squires are actually good! :D its a type of guitar i've always wanted :D a Strat with a maple fretboard (ala' yngwie malmsten XD)...

okay ive decided im officially saving for a really nice HSS strat (on a student budget :P ) can anyone tell me what the differences between a Fender American series and American Deluxe series strat are? I'm not really interested in the aesthetic differences, just how they differ in tone and...

Here's some updated pics from my Squire Relic project using Ibanez Collector's tutorial Before: After: I have headstock decals on the way, then I am sending her off to IC to fix the neck, since my job on it was awful, and touch up some of the body work.

I'm selling off a few of my Ibanezes, and I'm looking for a good USED guitar under the $1200 range. It has to have a locking tremolo, rosewood board, HH or HSH configuration. 24 frets is not a must, but would be preferred. Any guitars to look out for? Charvel? Kramer? etc, etc

Seems to be the top choice here for a basswood guitar, and I think they'll add the lower end needed for my Peavey XXX. But before I do, will this really be worth the money? Or will I not tell a difference to the v7/v8 much? Also, the v7 is a ceramic magnet I think, and is somewhat decent...

Im considering two new guitars here: The American Special Mahogany-bodied HSS Strat and The American Deluxe HSS Strat. The first has (of course) a mahogany body, and the second (of course) has an alder body. Both will have (of course) maple necks, and rosewood fretboards. The stock bridge...

What Dimarzios have you used in a Strat? Bridge position full size humbucker, and how did it work for what style of music?
