  1. So I can skip over the break contact?
  2. I hate starting topics with simple quick questions, so I am just going to add on to this topic. I bought a mono jack, but it has 2 conductors and is a closed circuit, can I still hook this up? Instead of having two solder terminals it has three and that throws me for a loop.
  3. I recently bought a JB. Haven't played it yet, still working on wiring all the pots and such, but from reading reviews it seems to be one of the best well balanced pickups around.
  4. Check this site out: http://www.ibanez.com/wiring/models.asp?t=e Hope that helps ya!
  5. Couple more good sites to check out are: http://www.tonepad.com/ http://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/inde...4&board=6.0 Hope this helps you out and good luck!
  6. thanks rhoads, was just making sure before ordering the parts.
  7. I am planning to wire a Seymour Duncan Sh-4 JB using this wiring diagram from seymourduncan.com http://www.seymourduncan.com/support/schem...1h_1v_1sas.html My question is if I can still put a tone knob in this mix. I was looking and I could not see any reason why I couldn't. Just have it running off the usual place, where the black wire connects? I just want to double check! Thanks, -Pex657
  8. That picture reminds me about an idea I had along time ago, Sadly I did not have the tools and skill to make the guitar. Fingerboard is looking nice, can't wait to see more update pics
  9. Hey all!! First I want to say that this is a great and welcoming community. I have spend many hours reading the forums when I was suppose to be reading for class, and I never found it a waste of time. My personal favorite section is the In Progress Section of the forums, you people are just amazing with what you create and actually make. Cheers to you all and I hope all your guitar dreams come true! With the thank you out of the way, I am finally given the chance to join all of you in this life hobby. I always dreamed of building a guitar but sadly I lived in an apartment and did not have the space and resources to make my dream come true. I have moved my self into a house and now have room for the tools. Sadly I won't get any of the tools until December (birthday gift), but I am not planning to waste any time. I have purchased this books to read until then: 1.) Make Your Own Electric Guitar by Melvyn Hiscock 2.) Guitar Player Repair Guide: How to Set-Up, Maintain, and Repair Electrics and Acoustics by Dan Erlewine 3.) How to Make Your Electric Guitar Play Great!: The Electric Guitar Owner's Manual (Guitar Player Book) by Dan Erlewine 4.) Another book.. but forgot the name and don't have it with me... it comes with a guitar plan already.... if that helps Hopefully by the time the tools come, I will be ready to start on my first build. My questions are: 1.) Are there any more books that are worth the read? 2.) Which tools should I start(brand, price, ..etc) with? Thanks, -Pex657
  10. I have searched some topics and read over them and it seems that sometimes it is just easier to leave a dent or scrape then to try to fix it. Here are the thinks that I would like to fix: http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e168/Pex657/P1000163.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e168/Pex657/P1000164.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e168/Pex657/P1000165.jpg For the neck, I have read that superglue will work, will it? Are these things fixable, or better just to leave them? Thanks, -Pex657
  11. If any one is in need of a nice sounding pedal that is not costly, I put up my Ibanez Ton-Lok DS7 Distortion Pedal on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...AMESE%3AIT&rd=1
  12. I did a little googling and found Fargen Amps, he has one channel tube amps that are hand made but go for around 1k depending on model. Only downfall to them is that they seem that they can't get very loud, god for practicing or very small gigs, with out louder instruments. http://www.fargenamps.com/
  13. Are there any one channel tube amps?
  14. My friend is trying to sell me this Ibanez guitar. I am having trouble figuring out which type of Ibanez this is. I think is an AX, but they don't have the some one on the site. The closest one that I can find ont ibanez site is http://www.ibanez.com/guitars/guitar.asp?model=AXS42 . [EDIT]No need for pictures any more[/EDIT] I am wondering what this guitar would be worth in this condition? Thanks, -Pex657
