Right now if I were in the market for a new LP I'd definitely buy a hollow one over a solid one.
I wonder if the Strat version would enthrill me equally.

So, you guys that bought a hollow Strat from Tommy - let me pick your brain.... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Schneidas) http://guitarsbyfender.yuku.com/topic/10286 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 15:54:28 GMT http://guitarsbyfender.yuku.com/topic/10284/t/Need-Help-With-neck.html ordered a chambered mahogany body(with a quilt maple top) from warmoth

says they do a better job with fretting and such. I need some

with SS frets despite all the controversy. I am looking for about
medium-jumbo frets, should i go with 6105SS or 6150SS fret sizes?... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (DHSned) http://guitarsbyfender.yuku.com/topic/10284 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:04:28 GMT http://guitarsbyfender.yuku.com/topic/10283/t/--lawrences--making-pickups---merger--lace-.html

Also, the pickups sounded really distorted, were black colored and had symbols on them which makes me question whether this really was a 1965 custom shop.

I'm curious to know what Q-filter does to the tone. There is a clip with Keystones on a Tele, but I need more exposure. I'm wondering whether the filter known as MTC, offered by Ritchie Blackmore's former tech Dawk and RBTC by some other company (to my understanding, it's an almost exact replica) is some sort of Q-filter? Here is a clip of RBTC on youtube, and the text... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (oacikgoz) http://guitarsbyfender.yuku.com/topic/10281 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 23:31:53 GMT http://guitarsbyfender.yuku.com/topic/10280/t/Q-filter--wiring-options-Questions--ideas--q-filter-veterans.html I currently own a Q-filter.
My conundrum is this:
I have a guitar with four spin controls (pots - gibson style) and two mini toggle switches. I'm wanting to convert the guitar to 1 tone, 1 volume and 1 pickup selector (5 way rotary - PRS style). I'd like to use the q-filter for the tone but have no idea what to use the fourth spin control and extra toggle switch for...

(ordered 3 weeks ago, not bad considering all they are going through) Thought it was cool they included a couple of extra set screws and allen keys. The cable has a nice small diameter and good flexiblility. It took about 5 minutes to measure off a 20' length and attach plugs to each end. The plugs are nicely plated and machined.

I am seeking a recommendation for bridge and middle pick-ups for my brother's Strat copy, which is a basswood body Saga kit (the $129 ads you see in the magazines). The neck pick-up is a Fralin Steel poled 43 gauge, I think its 5% overwound but I am unsure (I bought it from a colleague a ways back and can't recall). We like the neck pick-up very much, it is loud and full, very rich and powerful.
