New stuff from my band, three songs Wings on fire, Still waters and Justin recorded in January and now finally mixed. Sounds a lot better than I remembered. The whole band thing has been a real struggle, the name is just temporary and only one gig behind us so far. We'll see what happens. But...

I put a locking ABR with brass saddles on just a few days ago, and look forward to play my first rehearsals with the band today. The acoustic sound is mellower and the sustain is a little better, the tail of the note seems somewhat stronger, but as has been pointed out in previous posts, there...

Do you need to have any clean headroom? At 5 watts the Victoria can't really give you a clean sound that you can play with a drummer. And even at full tilt might not be enough for live situations even if you play with overdrive all the time.

Agree on Seymours site, unfortunately I don't really like what I hear there... The articles I've read about Jason Lollar gives an idea that he really knows what he's talking about and it's not JUST sales talk. And the fact that I liked his T-Specials so much makes it a bit less difficult, I...

WOW! Absolutely beautiful... I'd love to have a MIJ 335 like that. May I ask how much you paid for it?

Thanks guys for the insight. I kind of made up my mind about the Lollars because I had their pups in my Telecaster and they were just great. But maybe I need to take a look at what else's on the market. It's just so hard to decide when you have a lot of options and no real way of knowing what...

Thanks for the link. I emailed them to askwhether they ship to Finland or not. Hope top hear them soon.

I'm considering upgrading my Ibanez Super 58 humbuckers to Fralins or Lollars and just thought that since the Euro-Pound exchange rate is still quite good, I could maybe order the pups from UK. Could someone please help me find some shops that deliver to EU that might carry these boutique pups...

I would love to see some pics. I hope you took some "before" photos.

It's in the finnish huuto.net -auction site and the auction will end 25.4. I'll keep an eye on it and see what happens.

What do you think about this one? It looks like it needs some work (frets, tuners), but the starting price is just 100 ?, don't know about the reserve thought. It is in the northern Finland, so no possiblity to go and check it first. http://picasaweb.google.fi/ganesrocker/EpiphoneMIJ98#

Not such a great pic but it was the only one I could find. Violin finish tends to look redder the it is, especially in artificial light. This pic was taken on a dark december afternoon in Helsinki... Very Edgar Allan Poe... :D

If it has two screws on the truss rod cover, it's japanese, if three, it's korean. Can't really say more than that without any pics.

Hello and wellcome. I'm sure that I'm not the only one who would be interested to see your collection.

Cloth-wire and flat polepieces makes it look like a Seymour Duncan to me. But I'm not sure if they come with grey bottom plates. Someone will probably correct me. But the flat polepieces makes it look like an aftermarket type of thing.
