You just need a ticket to Thailand and roughly 5000 baht = $147

I’d buy Rockin Chippy’s basement

Due to market share and commonality amongst gigging demographics, I’d bet that there’s local techs that have seen hundreds of these on their benches.

I can’t see that being the case. There’s just not much proprietary in any tube amp

Earthquaker for me

Fab amps?

Probably 2 weeks

I just threw in some A3. I like them much better. Even though A3s are weak, they do high gain really well. The have the sag of A2 in the feel, but have a spankings to them clean. Great clarity without being stiff. First half is clean neck, then gain starts with neck and goes to bridge. I also...

It was a fire extinguisher holder

I bought a TASCAM interface and an SM57 First anttempt with the interface, SM57, Clean Bad Cat, Clean with Okko Diablo Gain+, then lead channel. I have no idea what part of the cone the mic is on, LoL I don’t get the the lead channel until 3:00 https://on.soundcloud.com/cFBTsqkspynN75x36

The Whiskey is still a “no go” with the new wire. Using PE wire, my protos are sitting between the old Whiskey and Roxy. I just ordered some poly wire, I’m done fighting it. I’m not going to compromise it. On a positive note, I’m really excited about my PAF prototypes. So far I have the...

Nudes, or it didn’t happen

I think is you start keeping track of certain pickups you like, there will be similarities in spec. You can affect inductance and resonant peak with winding patters too. I don't like A5's personally, but my first 2 models were A5's for other people. When I developed the Whiskey, I stayed with...

Different magnet types in an identical pickup do 2 things. They obviously affect the magnet pull of the strings. Generally speaking, more highs and lows with a stronger magnet. The second thing is that the composition of the magnet affects to inductance of the pickup. All Alnico magnets add...

A lot of test show some vintage PAFs having magnets with a full charge. From my own experience the way magnets in pickups are stored can degauss them a little, but not so much in an installed set. In a batch of magnets, I get an occasional magnet that the will never charge 100% or may test...

Thanks really th while intent and the reason I haven’t pushed any PAF types bridge pickups ins the past. For a baseline I’ve been A/B ing them with my Navigator custom with Seth Lovers. The Seth neck is actually muddy in that guitar but the bridge is pretty good aside from microphonics. These...

I think yours might be an A4? These are both A2

I love that neck profile. Nice and meat. Never really liked their standard profile.

They’re wax potted

Different. My previous one were poly wire. These are plain enamel. These are a little warmer/fuller, but still not muddy
