my sound is so easy. ihave a digitech rp6 and i only use it for two sounds a chorus on the clean and a slight pitch shift for dirty and i could get that with any pedals i think my sound comes from my fat assed fingers... should'nt have cracked my fingers so much when i was a kid

thanks ive been waiting on the magnet polepeice question i have a bobbin that i slotted for it ...ill post a pic i know the patents push sometimes misleading info...lots of it the reason im trying bilateral is EMI. that rail pickup i have worked good but the EMI was horrible at best but it worked i always read beyond everything i read. ill read something thru many times then ponder all the info then write everything i question down then try to come up with answers/solutions then read some more then tinker away. thus the many trials and errors my thinking on the bilateral is the same as a humbucker almost in that it can cancel noise/EMI and the bobbins i am making also slant like the sustainiac in the hopes of not losing the tracking when bending now one more question if i may on the staked pickup driver combo would it matter wich coil was on top? thanks again.....im off to tinkering

Hey Pete how even or should i say perfect were your windings on the pickup in your tutorial does scatter winding the pickup make a differance? can the magnet be a polepeice? im making three differant drivers 1. just like your tutorial 2. just the driver part of your system 3. a bilateral driver as close to the patent i can get im trying your idea to adjust to the pitfalls of this basic system before getting deeper into the bilateral design wich i understand is not what this thread is about its just that im bi-polar so my brain moves kinda slow as it over thinks every possible process in other words i think of every possible solution before/during and after anything i touch i wish i could print the whole thread so i could read it like a book as i have done with the patent that i have read some twenty times or more so far by the way if you have not read it there is a ton of info to be had thanks for your time

i think this is the pickup. it does not state the specs but the listing is what i remember i think e-mail him to find out http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...A%3AIT&rd=1

second answer first no you dont need it there are several guitar players that dont use one instead they use a kill switch as in an on/off switch as for two volumes there are two ways i can think of one is for a humbucker. each coil goes to one pot the you can blend them together or cut either out for a single coil thus lowering the output/increasing noise but a brighter sound the other way would be with a on/on switch to roll back the volume at an instant like a preset ive never tried two pots in series but does not sound like a good idea as the last pot would still determin the overall output hope this helps

ive seen that 57k on ebay ...thought it was a joke it was a white active that the guy claimed were limited quanities as they were prototypes ill look for it for ya does it have to be "active"? if not a dimebucker is very hot same as a lawrence XL500 i had an XL500 and an original L500 i hated the XL but wish i had the L500 back very hot and sounded perfect the Xl was much to harsh. though dime seemed to control it well

I have two questions 1. how can i tell the north/south side of a magnet? 2. can i cut a magnet with out hurting the magnet itself? im trying to make a split coil driver for a sustainer ala PSW's thread ive made two mini bobbins that when put together fit a single coil cover and i have a bunch of magnets that are 1/4" x 1/4" x 2 1/4" and i want to cut one in half but will cutting it affect its strength. i plan on using a dremmel and a cut off wheel i know it can chip or shatter but i think the cutoff wheel will prevent this any help would be great

i have a peavey raptor neck you can have to practice on as it needs a refret as well as a refinish take care of shipping and its yours

great work will look better fretted

try this link http://reranch.august.net/index.html great info on rattle cans

just unhook the pan if it goes away then thats your problem

great work Verhoeven love the inlays you do

white M.O.P would look much better very nice design works great with that hipshot bridge still thinking about Kermit.

yes the radius matters alot do a search for compound radius and youll understand better

Agreed that was horrible

its pretty simple after twenty plus years of playing i know what sounds like what i've spent a lot of money finding this out the hard way would a single coil sound strat sound like a humbucker les paul i doubt it but crank the gain into dimeland... would a single coil cut it i dont think so now drop the single into the paul would it pass... not at 7kohms but put a humbucker in a strat he would be closer to the sound he's after more like 11k or more and then he is getting closer right . 7k would not drive the pre amp as hard can ash or mahogony add ohms? or henry's or Q's no "no i i have no clue what Q is" but copper cant add to the to natural sustain of wood right? but the gain control will add plenty of sustian to anything do you have a single coil? and humbucker you can compare to? i do and i can tell the change in noise and sustain ive custom wound my own hum and its 16.7k on my fluke sm77 does my stock ibanez get this hot.....no. but does it add noise to where i have to roll the volume back untill i solo or rip with no stops.... yes.. yes it does but when i do open up look out its nasty can i get this sound with a single or mild humbucker.. not without some kinda boost and its still not as dark or "muddy" so the pickup adds tons when playing "Metal" not as much as wood when playing clean my point Eric Johnson can tell the differance in the wood if i put Emg's in a puddle of of pee could Kerry King......possibly not

i just posted on this http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.php?showtopic=24928 and i mentioned my 2x12 i love and hate this amp line 6 has many of unhappy customers on there lower end products i guess im lucky as i have no problems yet but i also swapped my stock speakers to a pair EV 12's ala Zakk and it opened up this amp bigtime i would not buy another as it is Crap get a Marshall or Peavey if you only need one or two sounds ive heard great things about the line 6 Vetta. but at $800 retail i think not. at that price im in tube territory and love my used marshall jcm 800 that was $550 0n ebay and just around the corner at that..... no shipping twice lucky on amps. now if i can convert that into used cars i could get some mileage for my money!!!!!!!!!

anybody that thinks i dont unerstand that wood makes a differance did not read what i said i understand what tone woods are but in metal it "does not matter" as much i have a line6 spider 2x12 here at home and if i put a Duncan jb in my Rich and spider on its insane channel it just rips thrash and yet the dimarzio makes you want to soften the gain and take advantage of that smooth silky creamy sustain from the wood so it is the wood that its made from. yet i dont hear it....... till i change my pickups. i came to this conclusion after "many" swaps i would never take the dimarzio out of this guitar as i also like to play April Wine... Nazareth and early Judas Preist and i dont get this tone in "High Gain Mode" with the JB but on its its clean to crunch setting with the dimarzio its very soulfull. makes me want to bend the living daylights out of a note and feel the floor move its like the differance in making love and f@#$ing one is passionate love the other is getting my nut on with an iron fist

i play sepultura,overkill,pantera,slayer just about everyday and i can promise you body wood makes almost no differance i have many guitars almost all are "super strats" two mahogony,one basswood,one alder,one ash and one maple...yes i said maple and yes it weighs a ton the maple is bright the mahogony is kinda of mid rangey i dont know how to describe the ash other than woody sounding the rest are kinda in between and sound almost the same the big differances are my pickups Duncan jb's can get heavy as hell. lots of harmonics and clean when you roll the volume back a Dimarzio double whammy. lots of mids and even more with the jackson mid boost i use in this one. i can not get a thrash sound with this setup but its creamy as hell in my B.C Rich ive never tried Emg's but look at all the players who use them and get very heavy sounds therefore my two cents says its the pickups not the wood hot pickups = hotter sounds medium output = softer and i am constantly changing pickups from one guitar to another trying to get "my own sound"

just screw to the top drill string thru holes and in stall furrels its not that simple but yes as i questioned why not shorten the trem block? and use the trem. unless you dont want one

well he is right and wrong if you wanted a tremolo why not shorten the block i have had to do this twice as i prefer floyds to any other bridge as for screw the bridge down..most of the trem bridges i have seen only have three screws for mounting to the block and im not sure that just those three screws is a good idea you could drill your own into the bridge then mount it but then why not just use a real hardtail in the first place and yes the block affects tone but not if its a non trem as they dont have one

search my post's llook for the one on setting up a floyd all the info you need is there and thanks to dan the man as its from one of his books
