Telecaster vintage bridge on mim player telecaster
Dad3353 replied to Rossn's topic in Repairs and Technical
Intonation is, I would suggest, a bit over-blown, really. How many acoustic guitars have adjustable saddles..? Many arch-tops have movable bridges that are slanted as best as is needed for this compensation. Nothing wrong with individual string adjustment, of course, but I doubt the real effectiveness when playing 'normally', for most ears. If it's just for show, why not, but a pencil as a bridge held in place with an elastic band works, too. As for vibratos, of any sort... An invention of Beelzebub. I'll have no truck with 'em. -
I did a quick Google search for 'bc rich slipknot guitar' and got some results.

When this sister site was created, the Users inscribed were copied across from Basschat, with their same passwords. The link was then cut, so the sites are since independent. Changing the Basschat pwd does not affect the Guitarchat pwd, so 'Yes, the pwd for here should be changed, too.' Hope this helps.

Telecaster vintage bridge on mim player telecaster
Dad3353 replied to Rossn's topic in Repairs and Technical
Looking at the back of those two models, I can't see any difference in ferrule placing or spacing that would affect such a change of bridge. I don't understand what the advantage of the vintage bridge could possible be, but that's another debate. No guarantee, as I've not the two guitars on hand physically, but it's easy enough to find out once the 'new' (in fact 'old', really...) bridge is lined up. I would add that I'm of the 'If it ain't busted, don't fix it' school, and I'd rather the better-designed 'Player' bridge, but... Whatever... Hope this helps. -

Alvin Lee (Gibson 335...)..? -
It can't be done easily. It's possible, but complex electronically, and unlikely to give desired result. Passive and active don't mix well, I'm afraid. Sorry.

Nah, it's all in the fingers. -
All of the above is assuming the use of IEM, or having a decent-enough foldback monitor system on stage. Small groups/pub bands don't always have this luxury; not all PA systems will accept much more than voice. Just sayin'.

Basic Board w/midi switching for home use - Wheelchair User
Dad3353 replied to frucoready's topic in Effects
There's only one candidate that comes to mind : the Moen GEC9 2nd Edition... I'm not sure what MIDI brings to the party for stomp-box pedals. If you're not married to those specific pedals, a more flexible system would be a good rack multi-Fx, such as the G-Force, which can be controlled with a MIDI controller, or go down the modelling rabbit-hole. Just my tuppence-worth; hope this helps. -
OK, yes, it can be done, but the shenanigans involved in getting the two technologies to cooperate together is not simple. Is it worth it..? Unless there's some compelling driver behind it, I'd suggest that going either all active or all passive is the way to go. No direct experience to offer, but gen up on the pitfalls before committing. What's missing from the stock bridge p-u..? Is there really no passive that could solve that issue..? Just my tuppence-worth; hope it helps.

If the Hartke doesn't fit your needs, then you have odd needs. It will do looping very well indeed, and is a known, successful pedal. Not too expensive; well within your budget. Look no further. Just my tuppence-worth.
