I bought a 12" bar when I bought my 12 string Mullen. It's 7/8" x 3-1/2" (Jim Burden Bullet Bar). I also have a 7/8" x 3-3/8" 10 string bar (BJS) and a 1" x 3-3/8" ...

I use one like this, cutter and winder in one.

Never mind. The credits listed the band members. It's Josh Grange. Good player. Great gig to have. I love Sheryl.

I'm watching a concert of Sheryl Crow on AXS TV. She has a psg player that doubles on guitar, keyboards, and backup vocals. He plays a red Sho-Bud Pro 1. Shoulder length hair. Concert was 10/2018.

The sound is too (what many call) sterile. No warmth at all. Even my Peavey has a little warmth. Not trying to make it sound like tube amp warmth, but a little life would be nice. The tone just is ...

I have used humbuckers for many years with both pot pedals and active pedals. Currently have a BL XR-16 in my Carter and I'm using a Hilton pedal. The XR-16 "isn't quite as hot or bright" as ...

I've used 710's in 2 Sho~Buds and a Carter, with both a Hilton and Goodrich (LDR2 Active and 120 passive). No difference at all as far as I can tell.

I look at it this way. No matter how a player holds and uses his hand, if he can cleanly pick and block, why would it be wrong. It irks the heck out of me to see a player that holds his hand an inch ...

I have a MarkBass amp head that I love the clean sound of. Problem is, well... the preamp section (tone) really SUCKS!!!!!!!

You mentioned putting the EQ pedal, in the effects loop. I have been wondering about that for a while now. I may have to try that with the MarkBass bass head that I have. For steel g ...

Is there any possibility of getting more pics? Looks like a cool guitar.

Is the invisible guy in the sneakers, you? Laughing

How many of you use harmonics on the 12th fret to tune to? I've tried it on many of the guitars I had owned, and it works OK. I do notice a little difference in the tuners display for a note on an o ...

I used one that would fit on my guitar leg, but people tend to bump into it and unscrew the leg a little. I think that if I wanted to use my tablet on stage again, I would use a mic stand next to, or ...

That's probably the same as the ones used on ZB guitars. Maybe someone has one for a ZB that they can measure, and sell to you.

True, on most guitars, the springs do attach to the end plate. But it's not true of all of all guitars, so I recommend it just in case.

Good point.

Just out of curiosity, why would the changer ...

When I was gigging regularly (1-2 times a week), I would change a whole set every 2 to 3 months. But, I would change the 3rd and 5th string 1 or 2 times in between whole set changes to prevent breaka ...

dean, i am not even close to be a tech, just wondering if you could attach the grounds to the changer part?....thanks jack

My Mullen grounds the pickup to the jack.

Every guitar I have ever owned is grounded to the sleeve of the jack. Never have I seen a wire going to any place else.

My first PSG was a black S10 ZB with white fretboard and pickup.
