    the fret wood doesnt have to bee very hard, as maple is quite soft compared to some wood, however there is a certain toughness required i imigine, and perhaps density also.... mike

    i used to play very very low, i had my strap full out, and string on the end to lower it!! i made a thing which i called the hetfieldizer, which just put the guitar soo low i could hit my knees with it!! i learnt from my mistake, now its very, very high up!!! sooo much better for playing!

    lmao what is the tone setting on the amp etc... you can really kill the wah effect by cutting mids and treble, otherwise it might be bust and stuck in bypass or something mike

    id disagree with the point that EMG's sound fake, but i understand they dont float your boat so id recommend a PAF perhaps LACE's would be good. i donno, but perhaps try cool rails... mike

    PS the battery i recommended was the 2/3AA type incase ure wondering! mike

    dave - i (for school project) am making a portable pre-amp, and wanted an extended capacity, and rechargable, so i have a battery for you to check out.... these are Nickel Metal Hydride, rechargable, good batts. the 9V PP3 type are about 150mAh where as the ones i found called 2/3AA are 700mAh AAA are 750mAh and AA are around 2000mAh. the 2/3 AA batts have the same diameter as the AA but are shorter, and more compact, so check these! cya mike
