thanks ansil, but i looked at that before, and i couldn't really understand what was going on and what modes you were getting I also prefer to switch between modes with just my one tone knob, and leave the vol knob for high pass filter I actually got a cool idea just now with the tone dpdt knob in the off position, i'd have this: 1: Neck 2: N+M cc 3: Inner Neck + Inner Bridge cc 4: M+B cc 5: Bridge and with the tone dpdt knob in the on position, i'd have this: 1. Neck single 2. ? (whatever's convenient) 3. Middle 4. ? (whatever's convenient) 5. Bridge single that way, when the tone knob is down, I'd have all humbuckers and humcanceling sounds. when i pull the tone knob up, i'd get all single coil sounds! is this possible? is there even a schematic for this already available? 'cause it sounds like something that someone else may have come up with before.

sweeeet...... i decided not to go with the Emg-ab, i'll just use my 2 knobs as a high pass filter, and coil tap like Joe Satriani okay for position 2, i'd have the JPM middle sound how about the other positions, what other sounds can i get, besides neck HB coil tapped, and Bridge HB coil tapped

Thanks guys lovekraft, that sounds great! How would i do that? About the EMG-AB, it's not a regular push/pull knob. http://www.emgpickups.com/displayproducts....s&categoryid=32 I don't think it has the leads that a regular DPDT pot has, it has a like a circuit or something. I'm not sure about that though. I still would want to use it as a tone knob in the off position though. Is there anything else I could do?

Hello I have Hum/Sing/Hum combo in Ibanez RG570 I'll be switching out the stock pickups sometime in the future, and i was wondering if i get this setup going in my guitar: I want to keep the 5 positions i have now 1. neck 2. neck + middle 3. middle 4. bridge + middle 5. bridge but i want to add on the "John Petrucci Inner Coil of Neck and Bridge Humbucker (humcanceling)" deal with my guitar Plus i want to add the Emg Afterburner, but I have 2 knobs: 1 vol, 1 tone, and i don't want to necessarily lose them or drill new holes into my guitar. So how am i going to do this? The ideal setup for me would be: the EMG-AB works like a tone knob in the off position (or volume), and the other knob i'd use a push-pull pot, and in the up position, it would switch to the JP inner coil position (plus some other positions maybe) or Replace the tone knob with a 3 way switch, and then it would be like this: 1. Sounds like Tone knob rolled all the way down 2. Sounds like Tone knob rolled all the way up 3. Inner Coil dealie and I'd skip the EMG-AB or use the volume knob for a high pass filter with push/pull switch. (the EMG-AB isn't as important to me) I talked to the EMG tech guy and he said in order to use an EMG-AB as a tone knob i'd have to use a "stacked pot". What's that, a dual concentric knob control pot? I guess I could do that for vol/tone, but like I said, I don't really care about the EMG-AB thing as much as the Coil-splitting function. I'm more interested in that. So is anything i'm asking for possible? What can I do? Right now, i'm sort of asking if it's even possible, I don't need a wiring schematic.....yet On a side note, is there a site on the web that explains what the wires from the pickup do? I can sort of follow the schematics (i have a really basic understanding of electronics), but I want learn which wire does what and why guitars are wired like they are; so i can have a better understanding of the pickup wiring in my guitar.

*woops* didn't see second page

very nice gives homage to your hero, but is refreshingly unique paint job is very impressive.

i was thinking push/pull would be the best idea

what exacty is Coil tap? i've looked around, and all i can gather is that it splits the humbucker into a single one or something like that. and how would i go about implementing it on my guitar (or any guitar)? ( i got a regular split-5 way thing on my ibanez) how difficult or expensive would it be? (btw, i'm just thinking about it, not actually planning to do it)

it's actually not iron pewter, the pic that the seller sent me was dark it's actually silver but yeah, i'll be selling it on Ebay soon, in a few weeks.

nevermind, figured it out

how do i remove the output jack from the body........ i unloosened the nut and washer, now when i push from both sides, it won't come out.

Hi I won an Ibanez RG570 guitar in Iron Pewter recently off of ebay, i'll be receiving it soon. i also got me an Ibanez RG570 body in Rootbeer Metallic, also off of ebay (i have it now). Now i want to disassemble the guitar, and then assemble the parts onto the Rootbeer Metallic body, 'cause i am obsessed with the Rootbeer Metallic color . this seems kinda daunting to me. Now what order should i dissassemble the guitar and assemble the guitar? here's what i was thinking (i'll probably need help doing these steps too ) disassembly: 1. Open cavity cover, Remove trem with strings on (this is the best option right? 'cause i looked at Rich Harris's tech section on the site, it looks like it's gonna be a tad difficult...) 2. Unscrew neck (this sounds easy, but is there anything i need to know though?) 3. Remove pickups and wiring. how do i do this, and what do i first..... assembly: 1. Wire pickups 2. Screw on neck (anything i need to know here?) 3. Attach trem 4. Set up. do i have the order right? what else do i need to do or know? any help would be appreciated. thanks

man, he's selling more guitars too, and he says the same thing in each of them: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=2542132501 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=2542132501 he is very **** with every one of his guitars! and he's gettin some real bids too, at least 10 bids on each of them! i guess people really want his guitars

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...&category=33043 i know this sounds pretty immature, but i just found this line highly humorous: "Just to let you know I am very **** with my equipment," hehe, he takes his equipment up the ass!
