    Pickup magnet sources

    Unoriented magnets are weaker. Generally A2 is always unoriented. Most A5s are oriented but are available unoriented. And Unoriented A5 in a JB is generally considered the best swap for JB

    Jb’s just don’t work for me..so let’s swap magnets 🧲!!

    Magnets change the tone in 2 ways. Each type has a different ferrous content making them have different inductance levels. The higher the inductance the lower the resonant peak A2 has a higher inductance than A4 and A5 and that’s why they sound meaty. Ceramic has the lowest inductance and...

    Pickup magnet sources

    Honestly it’s really small,the poles aren’t even the larger flat parts of the magnet the pole are The 1/8 edges. The frequency influenced by the inductance and strength, which are identical between rough cast and polished.

    Desperate cry. I’m done.

    Japan minimum wage is less than $7. The only reason people flourish is that 3 generations share hosing and expenses. I do not recommend coming to Japan on a work visa.

    Looking for advice on FU Tome bridge build

    I look at FU products as more cosmetic than tonal. While a brass bridge makes a difference. You can do it cheaper even directly through Floyd rose

    Should I ditch my half stack and go digital?

    You already have amps though right? You can get 8 years on tube playing at home at moderate levels no problem. Re-cap? 30 years under conservative use.

    Should I ditch my half stack and go digital?

    I think the opposite. Go digital if gigging because it’s indistinguishable in the mix, where as at home, for me, just doesn’t replace “in room” tones. Additionally, you digital rig will depreciated more the the price of occasional tubes or cap jobs

    Gibson Sues DiMarzio over double cream

    John Deere green is not an over the counter color. Black and cream were the only options for bobbins long before DiMarzio. When people see double creams in a real late 50s Les Paul, you think PAFs not Dimarzios.
