Massive Humbucker shootout
Humbucker shootout with no talking: this one was inspired by my decision to swap the pickups in my Epiphone Les Paul. I had Lambertone Cremas in it but it honestly felt like a big letdown in sound for me. So I did a before and after sound comparison after winding and installing the Big Sky Toneworks Kalamazoo set. Then I added a bunch of other guitars that also have humbuckers. Maybe I’m just amusing myself, but I found the results interesting. #epiphone #lespaul #Gibson #es335 #firebird #guildguitars #s100polara #hb1 #prs #zachmyers #bigskytoneworks #lambertones

P90 shootout: Big Sky Toneworks vs Stock Epiphone
มุมมอง 5410 หลายเดือนก่อน
Here’s a side by side shoot out of the stock Epiphone p90’s in my 57 goldtop and the Big Sky Toneworks P90 set. The big difference is that there’s better balance in output between the 2 pickups and the bridge is hotter and warmer.

Troubleshooting Strat sounds with Big Sky Toneworks

Introducing Big Sky Toneworks my new pickup enterprise. These are my Strat prototypes designed to fix my main issue with Strats: they lack body and mids. I designed these to be different yet yield familiar flavors. All knobs were on ten and were through the same fractal preset which is a Fender Deluxe Reverb. I left my sloppy playing in because a) you’ll probably mess up at some point as well b...

Catalinbread Dirty Little Secret Demo : 2 British amps in one pedal
มุมมอง 694ปีที่แล้ว
Billed as a foundational overdrive, this pedal gives you the flavor of 2 vintage Marshall amps. The Superbass and Superlead. Used for lower gain the Superlead mode excels at that Jimi Hendrix Marshall “clean” sound, and the Superlead gives the classic rock and roll overdrive sounds you’d expect from a plexi. The amp used is the Princeton on my Fractal FM9 with a spring reverb. Get Fractal prese...

Using that high quality RIT bass stain I see. If it works it works.
50s wiring got me banned from my guitar tech, when I requested to have him switch the guitar back to regular modern wiring. 50s wiring makes your guitar to lose volume. So the tone and volume is not as strong and full sounding. My advice, if you know how to do this mod by yourself. Go ahead and try it, if not leave it alone.
Just did this to my Squier Sonic Tele and brought it to life thank you
why my bigsky not displaying my saved name , it only displays Bank01/02/03
can you help me fix my bass, i have 4 knobs for some reason for the pj bass and the wiring go messed up. id be really thankful if you can help me a diagram or just any tips in general thank you
Hey brother! Thanks for the video. I’d like to ask you about what you feel are the biggest letdowns of the Cremas, pushing you to replace them with the Kalamazoo. I’m considering getting some Cremas. But am also keeping an ear out for other pickup sets that might work well for worship settings. Your input on your Crema experience would be super helpful.
I can’t believe it. I could actually tell the Cremas. It was my favorite sound. Followed by the Jazzmaster. I’m new to the notion of guitar tone. I didn’t expect I would be able to tell.
Saludos desde Argentina en español. Seguro Ustedes pueden traducirlo 👍Ok me resultó my útil éste tutorial: poseo una Telecaster American Vintage 52 del año 2000. Mi primera duda era si la posición del medio era solo la pastilla del neck y la confirmé al estar el Bridge mudo. Mi segunda duda era si el control de tono no era en realidad un control de mezcla. Está ahora claro que es un Tone control que afecta al volumen en la posición Bridge. En mi guitarra baja casi totalmente el volumen de la pastilla del Bridge. Ahora entiendo la función sutil de control de volumen con el control de tono entre 5- 7 y 5 - 3. Excelente video muy útil y orientado a la creatividad de las Telecaster's con circuito antiguos 👍🎸
Roy Buchanan Ton's 👍🎸
Yo te lo traduzco: Bridge: puente Neck - cuello Tone - tono De nada
nice demo, dude. A lil bit of clipping of your audio interface is in the mix though.
I wish I had bought this guitar years ago instead of the Epi Dot. The neck on the Epi Dot is possibly one of the worst necks one could imagine. Ibanez, on the other hand, has one of the nicest necks. If I buy an AS73 in the future, pickups and electronics will go bye bye. Something I learned about the Epi Dot is that HB size P90 pickups really brightened it up. I bought some Chinese made HB size P90s just to see what they'd sound like in the Dot ... was a massive improvement. And I had SD Antiquities in it! $30 pickups sounding better than Antiquities? Who'd a thunk. The tuning situation ... that's another horror story with the Epi Dot. I put on locking tuners, a String Butler, and Zero fret. One thing I have been doing for some time now is tuning all strings on the 2nd fret. Open strings will be a few cents flat. If you check out James Taylor's video on how he tunes his acoustic guitars, you'll see that open strings should not be tuned precisely. By the way, there is a video of a guy who installed Chinese made HB size P90s in his Epi Dot .... and it sounds fantastic. Psyclone Filter'Tron type pickups by SD would also help a dull sounding semi-hollow ...
I don't get that warm sustain out of my strats thanks for posting
Very nice. Gotta love Bootstrap. Just loaded a strat with their pickups, delightful. Great pickups.❤
Wow. 10 years and not one video on You Tube explaining how to use the Strymon Dual Delay
☺️Not sure your "clean" sounds are truly clean, but w/ those effects the thing sounds amazing!!
Cool lookin tele.
I have both and love them the same !
Great review, sounds awesome. I just got into building teles. Ll be ordering some. Also subscribed!
"I always say taking about music is like farting about painting" -pickles the drummer
A little late to the party but, can you tell me if the 50's wiring can be done on a Strat... where there is two tone controls, but only one volume?????
Yes
Is it really even worth changing the pickups. I don't want to put another 3 to 400 dollars into this guitar.
High output and muddy don't mix. I have the exact same feeling about this guitar. I can't sell it fast enough, other thing resale sucks , 225 US is what they'll give you for it at guitar shops!
What pedal or amp settings were used to make the echoed vibey feel in the guitar?
I just picked up a 2002 AS73. It has dot inlays like the one in the video. It seems it be bone stock. It plays like a much more expensive guitar. The pickups sound amazing actually. I have a '94 Les Paul Studio, a USA G&L, and a USA Telecaster to compare it to. The Ibanez is outstanding. And for the price, it is hard to beat.
I have an inspired by Gibson, Epiphone Les Paul. 50’s edition with 50’s wiring .Gold top of course!) I love the sounds I can get. I have four other double humbucker guitars and I can say 50’s wiring can get you better tones and more sounds.
Ive found a Ravelle with floyd rose and EMGs, the sustainer was removed, if it was a Baritone I would 100% go for it, but it is a 24.75 and the owner is asking for 600$ for it, quite hard for me
Reverb much?
A good representation of the difference in tone. I've always liked the vintage style of wiring, but listening to your recording, I somehow notice that the modern way of wiring, although it reduces the high tones, has more space for coloring the tone, has more mid tones, somehow it's typical for HB PU, that's why they are HB , fatter, fuller tone. I will certainly transfer to modern - it will be the first time I do so.
intonate... NOT...intonite...
Great demonstration! I’m going to give 50s wiring a shot in my Zach Meyers.
My first electric was a new Firebird Iii I bought in the spring of 64. I liked it a lot and bought a Fender Twin for it. Great match up. 😊
Subscribed as soon as the chicken was revealed 😂
Hay use blueamp mercury 1 with it you have real mix up to 5 to 7 options with strymon or other fx ped you have small Pedalboard . Or quilter tone block cheap options amp side output quilter great blueamp mercury just something little better it's nano tube in poweramp help .
Be nice to know what you are playing?
Thanks for the video. This was very helpful! This is exactly what I want to do and I appreciate the wiring diagram! All the best!
Firebirds are the best in my experience aside from the SG if you're playing heavy rock
50's sounds much more useful
I much prefer it
Great comparison. Here are a few ones that I liked. Firebird (probably my favorite), Lambertones, PRS SE and Kalamazoo pickups. Please share your experiences and preferences.
So much is personal preference. Each has their strength and weakness. I find the Firebird, HB1, and Cremas to be lower output brighter pickups of which the Lambertones are my least favorite, the Gibson is my dream guitar and the benchmark as far as I’m concerned. The Kalamazoo is a very versatile set, not quite the same as the Gibson but incredibly touch dynamic and more clarity. The PRS is the hottest of the bunch and into a driven amp is pure bliss
Gibson usually market their guitars for the jazz demographic but I suspect the Firebird was geared towards the country & western market to compete with Fender. Even the SG was supposed to be a kinda compact solid body jazz guitar!
I agree with you about the pickups. I have the transparent red version of this. I will be replacing them with Seymour Duncan 59 bridge and JB neck nickel pickups.
😎🤘Awesome 👌 😮
❤These sound great!
Both! Lol
Very nice tone!
Thanks a lot!
Beautiful playing!
Great video and tone. It really shows the value of these amps. Would be great to get more info on guitar used and the settings on the amp.
You mentioned leaning guitars up against an amp and it always amazes me that so many guitarists, even experienced ones will do that. In general it's a terrible practice and if somebody does it with a Gibson style headstock they are extra foolish. Guitar stands are worth the investment but even though way safer than leaning the guitar on the amp they can still get knocked over on a busy stage. Best is to simply put it in it's case and just do a quick tune before your next set... way better than a snapped headstock or a big gouge on the body, neck, or whatever.
" fantastic thank"
50's all the way. Thanks for the comparison.
Very good, thanks.
On full volume I like the modern wiring...i noticed when i switched from modern to fiftees on full volume the modern had more mids and thickness.
Always comes down to preference.
@@WolfGuitarsandGear yep. prefer the fiftees
