So much TONE in a little switch!
Fender’s bright switch…. Some use it, some dont. There is a great tone dynamic there, if the amp is cooking just right, it can give you more!
Just try it…?!?

    Listening to vintage guitar experts is really informative and their knowledge is staggering at times, with all the information stored and at hand. Listening to you guys is something else. The excitement and energy is captivating and so much fun to listen to. You both have so much knowledge and what is priceless is the practical experience of buying and selling, investigating and most of all the playing. Thank you both for a lot of fun as well as info!

      @theriffwniksevigny5473 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Its a true bypass looper. Because the wah and tube screamer arent true bypass. So when you loop the two pedals inline, when you press the button on the mxr, it pulls them Out of the signal chain

    Thanks, that's I searched! For my "Texas-taste" i liked the clean up tone of the germanium(NTK275) is the best because it makes finger nuances to live clearly. So you can change the sound just play harder or softer. That's makes your sound more personal too because anybody can't play with just your fingers...

    I just did this mod. I used an old credit card and wedged it thru the solder joint as soon as it became molten, that worked great. And I recommend using a magnifying glass, once you remove the black tape. The wire leads are small and they run across the end of the bar magnet where you push it out. You DON'T want to damage those leads. And if your pick up is wax potted, the bar magnet might be stuck to everything else it is touching, so be careful how you go about nudging it out. My bar magnet was stuck to the side spacers and would not come out unless they came out with it, then I broke it free from the spacers. Surprise...it all worked.

      If it's not too much trouble, check if the sound returns to normal, if you turn the pup 180 degrees without disassembling it.

    • @nickf2170
      @nickf2170 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@iridios6127 I already know that will not make it sound like it did before the mod. The change affected the direction of magnet polarity (in relation to the wiring) and is now, only going to sound the new way, until reversed again. Swaping the whole pick up end for end may well have some modest affect on the PU sound, but any change here would NOT be due to phase. This would be because the adjustable pole pieces are now towards the bridge and adjusting them UP or DOWN, would provide that "modest" tone difference....again, not related to phase.

I just landed a Leslie Model 16/Vibratone with an 8ohm JBL D110F in it, trying to figure out what Ohms to set my guitar amp at, and I needed some info from someone more knowledgable than I, seeing as I've never owned a Leslie or Rotary of any kind. Its got the crossover, so my guess is to set the amp at 4ohms, as the 8ohm amp speaker and the 8ohm JBL Leslie would likely be in parallel, correct? I'd really appreciate any advice you could give.

    I always thought a C12P was a ceramic speaker, because Jensen tend to designate their ceramic speakers with a "C" prefix. I suppose they also designate alnico with a "P" prefix, so maybe they were alnico... but they certainly don't look it either.

    Sounding tasty as usual, I got my first Fender amp with bright switch recently, a 1967 Bassman head, which is black-panel with drip-edge (transition?). We saw your friend JD Simo here in Portland recently at a clinic he did. Seeing his telecaster up close I couldn't believe how low the strings are - almost touching the frets, yet he plays brilliant slide guitar - amazingly sensitive touch!
