Well I used the larger black screw because it seemed to be the same diameter as the original. Its working well so far. I chose it over the original gibson screw because the clip lock one was longer, thought that might be useful. I am still scared to go crazy with this thing, but it feels safe...

I just bought this to put on my Gibson Les Paul, but I was wondering if I should use the smaller silver screw, or the larger black screw. Anyone installed one of these on a Les Paul before? ---------------- Now playing: Burden of a Day - Remember via FoxyTunes

Well you guys converted me...I went out and bought the minwax poly today. But I have heard coat ranges between 2 and 6...So is there a magic number?

This is all great help....I plan on doing 4 or 5 coats...does that seem like an ok amount to you?

I am pretty sure that I am going to use Tru oil which is a gunstock oil. I have a maple neck with a rosewood fretboard. Do I wipe the oil on the top of the neck where the rosewood and maple meet or do i strictly only cover the maple. On my old neck it looks like the rosewood on top of the neck...

I just got an unfinished strat neck from all parts. Its a maple neck with a rosewood fretboard. I was wondering what is the best way to seal since Ive heard that leaving unfinished is a no-no. I have heard tung oil and tru oil. Are there any other substances and can anyone give me any...

I would like to get into the recording game, but I would like to keep the price below 600-700 bucks. I am no engineer and have never really recorded anything other than through a silly little computer mic. I would like to make quality demos of my playing (not grade a studio quality) but at an...

OH MY GOD! That strat is beautiful? What is it?

so I found out that there is nickel plating on top of another which i forgot but i think it was bronze. So this is why on top and where the frets arent worn they are silver...but in the worn in areas I see gold. So the tech said filing them down would be giving the frets two tones tonally and...

I have a strat that I just took in to get the picks up changed to dimarzio areas and I was going to get the frets redressed and a compound radius past the 12th because it was fretting out on bends. So I got a call today saying that the frets were made of two different metals which he had never...

I use a BBE Sonic Stomp at the end of my loop and it corrects the tone sucking and really tightens up the sound. I Would rather play with loop engaged just because of the sound i get from my BBE.

I'm thinking about getting a 2x12 so I would love to know how that orange is. I really like the look of the orange cab, I never buy for just looks but **** they look cool with a boogie on top.

Thanks for the answer Yeah i played with the gain a little but i was trying to get a really clean but loud tone. I realise the distance sounds silly but I was wondering if there is a too close situation. Is there a sweet spot at about 30 feet that im not aware of? Im still a tube and stack...

Well there was a topic earlier comparing the dual rec and roadster volumes. I have a roadster and tonight I took it outside(I have a few acres). I had the loop bypassed and i was running my channels 1 and 2 at about 2 Oclock on 100 watts and I wasnt going deaf...and right now my ears arent...

Well i feel that my channel 3 and 4 are crazy loud, but channels 1 and 2 seem way to quiet in comparison. Ive had them up to say about 11 on the output and 2 or 3 on the channel volumes and then my dirty channels were set only to like 9 or 10 oclock . Thats a really big difference imo. Is this...
