  1. Wow, Pete! That's really answered my question! Thanks for rounding up all the info - you've saved me (and hopefully others) a lot of time. I don't think that progress is slow, though. It takes time for people to make things, come up with ideas, etc. I think it's all been stunning. As you've said, you've got all these different driver designs, amplifier designs, now people are changing the position of their driver...try keeping up! BTW Good luck with the move, Pete.
  2. Hey guys, long time (and about double the amount of posts there were last time I looked!). psw, i liked this summary: Could you possibly do a lowdown on the current state of neck sustainers? It would be handy to see where they stand. btw spazzy, nasty!
  3. Which of these is the right wire? I'm a noob when it comes to wires... Green TefzelĀ® wrapping wire,30awg 100m <- I'm guessing not this one or Insulated copper wire,30awg 700m Also, I've been reading, and differentr people have used different gauge of wire - soem 30awg, some 36...which should I start with?
  4. Hey, cam up with an idea, not sure how useful it will be tho... Ok, so the bsic principle is that the ouput from the b p/u is sent to an amp then a driver, which reproduces the string's vibrations. (is that right?) So if a string, to put out say and E, vibrates in one way, then a F will do it slightly differently. Imagine if you could store all these different notes, then reproduce them. Of ocurse, this would have to be digital, and beyond our scope, but jsut an idea. You could pitchshift wihtout a whammy bar, or trill...the possiblities are (almost) endless. BTW the tape, the bit with Konx written on, is jsut to stop the string from snapping on the p/u...lol
  5. Hey guys, Well done Tony! Just thinkign about the high E, and was watching G3 Live in Tokyo, when I noticed that Steve's Sustainer had this little bit of metal, at the front edge of the p/u - possibly to help sustain? Have a look.
  6. Hey guys/gals Pete, in DIY stompboxes, one of the biggest annoyances of popping. Normally, the colution is to put a largish resistor, say 1M at the input to the circuit to ground. Just a thought. As for switching, I'm looking at that as well, using FET switching, like boss pedals, or logic perhaps. I've got loads of free time over summer...no exams finally, so hopefully I'll get round to this soon enough.
  7. Hey guys, for the pooping, just remembered this: AMZ- LED popping It seems pretty simple. Excuse me if this has been posted before, but its such a loooong thread!
  8. Hey, well done! When you say 'perfectly' do you mean as in all strings sustain the same, and that the problems on page 1 of the tut are non-existant. If they are, then let me at 'em!
  9. Thanks guys, like you probably said, its more trouble than its worth. Instead ive decided to get an OD pedal (prob Bluesbreaker) and use that instead...much better tones.
  10. ive got a really cheap marshall (MG15CDR) and i would like to mod it so that the Od channel can be operated by a footswitch. This may sound wierd, but it would be a great help for some feedback.
  11. Hi guys Does any1 no if it is possible to convert a standard strat (only a squier) to have a floyd rose system, or do i have to buy another guitar? ALso, on a strat trem, i can hear little sutain squeak? is this only me?
