Ok I have one more question. If I use an internal preamp (this is the only guitar I'm going to put the piezo saddles on) what resistance volume/push pull pot do I need? I want the push pull to control the volume of the piezo pickups and switch between the magnets and the piezo for the output. Do I need the 25k pot for this since I'm using the internal preamp that has the 9 volt battery?

thanks for the input. The tone pot is a dud anyway, I bypassed it when I installed the Duncan Invaders so it's just a single volume on the guitar right now. Does anyone know what the color of the Ghost Saddles from stew mac really look like? I'd like to keep all the hardware black, but if the saddles are the dark chrome like in their pic that would look ok. Also will the ones on Stew Mac fit on my bridge? I mean are they pretty much universal or are they meant for a specific bridge?

is there anyway to wire a push-pull pot to control the output? Like down is just magnetic pickups and up is the piezo? I don't want to add anymore switches, what is the best way to keep it looking stock while expanding the tone?

I have an Ibanez RG with a flat mount string through bridge, does anyone know of a model that will be a direct replacement for the bridge and offer acoustic tones? I have included a pic, any info is appreciated, I really want to expand the tone of this guitar.

Hey Guys, I got a washburn NX6 of ebay a little while back and it had the humbuckers mounted straight to the wood. I personally didn't like the pickups (dimebucker and '59) and more so I didn't like that I couldn't adjust the height on them. So I pulled them out and sold them and bought EMGs. I added mounting rings and the neck pickup fit perfect. However the route for the bridge pickup was not deep enough and when installed the emg sticks up so high the strings rub on it. How do i make the route deeper? What is the best method?

Hey I'm gonna do a jackson body with a material finish and I was wondering, how do I prep the body? I'm stripping a black finish off with a power sander, do I need to sand and seal before applying the glue? Also does it matter what the material is made of? I want to use Camo material to make it look bad-arse. Thanks for your help

Hey I'm installing EMGs on my Washburn N4, and I just noticed that I need a different sized pickup mount for my bridge humbucker. The neck mount worked fine, but the bridge one, was weird as the hole for the pickup was too small for a EMG, and I tried some other mounting rings I had and they fit the pickup, but didn't fit the guitar. So does anyone know where I can find a humbucker mounting ring that is like 3 and 7/16" across? please help

hey guys I have some cool bc rich pick-ups on Ebay, they're pretty good condition and sound really cool Click Here for the auction

Hey does anyone know where, besides Ebay, I can find EMG pick ups?

ok the neck is ready, just tell me when you have time and what your address is and I'll send it out to you, thanks !!!!

musiciansfriend.com has one for floyds, it fits really good because it comes with the mount aswell so if it doesn't fit at first you can just change the mount easily and it will

yeah I don't have access to a router and i don't have the money to spend on one right now. I'd be willing to pay someone to do this for me. The fretboard is wider than the neck and needs to be cut to fit it right and I just don't have the tools/experience to do it correctly.

I'm from Vancouver, Washington, which is basically Portland, OR, here are the pics of what i have Thanks for your help if those pics didn't show up check these out Neck Fretboard and Frets

Hey, I have a neck, a finger board and some frets and a nut, I thought I could put it all together myself, but as this is my first project and I am lacking the equipment/money (at 16 i need the money for a car, not an arbor press or another real tools) Is there anyone here I could send the parts to and have it assembled for a price? All help is greatly appreciated, thanks

thanks dude that really helps, i'm not planning on doing any inlays on this though. so i'll just skip that step, THANKS A TON!!!

Hey, I have a BC Rich Neck that i just removed the freboard from and I want to install a new one. I ordered an Ebony fingerboard from Warmoth and jumbo fretwire. It's pretty much a blank except it has the slots for the frets and nut, how do i go about fitting it to the neck? and also I want to scallop the fretboard, should I do this before or after I've installed it to the neck? All help would be greatly appreciated! thanks!

I think the speed loader is just a rip off of the Steinberger tuning system except it looks a bit cooler, but it's the same idea. Myself I like Schaller Floyd Rose teremolos like the one on my Washburn N4, it never goes out of tune and is actually easy to change strings on if you know what you're doing. The idea behind the speed loader is that you select what kind of tuning your doing (standard, drop d, open, etc) then string it, adjust tension, and tune. And after that you will never have to retune after you change strings if you use the same gauge and don't change your tuning. But i perfer my schaller floyd,

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone knows what size screws I need to attach my humbucker mounting rings to my guitar. I found some screws on a site called Guitar Parts Resource, they say Gibson Pickguard screws, are these the right kind for mounting rings? thanks btw, here's the link http://guitarpartsresource.com/hardware.htm the ones i am curious about are the "(20) BLACK PICKGUARD SCREWS FOR GIBSON GUITAR" item number GPHS-AP056 thanks again

hey, I'm working on this old warlock, and i want to remove the nut it has which is just the standard kind like on telecasters, and replace it with a locking nut as I am installing a floyd rose tremolo on it. Any suggestions on how to remove the old nut? All help is appreciated

hey Does anyone have the wire color code for BC Rich pick-ups? I am building an older platinum warlock i got from ebay and I need the color codes to wire the pickups. It came with 1 volume 1 tone, 1 3way switch and a mini toggle which i think is for a coil splitter in the bridge humbucker. thanks for your help Jon

It's a bolt on neck, currently the guitar is in pieces and I am gradually restoring it.

I want to paint the back of a neck to match the color of the body. Does anyone know who do this properly so that it will work and look good? It's on a red BC Rich Warlock.
