HELP!! whammy bar

hey i have a fender squire thats modeled off of a strat ...and i cant figure out how to put the whammy bar on .. it comes with a spring with 1 hook at the end , the bar itself, and the 2 L shaped screw driver things .. can someone PLEASE help!! ill be forever grateful! Thanks alot ...keep rockin

Re: HELP!! whammy bar

just screw it in the hole on the bridge, the spring/hook is most likely for the section under the back plate. and the "2 L shaped screw driver things" are allen wrenches for the truss rod. Those have nothing to do with the whammy bar, but both are standard accessories. So just look for the hole in the lower right side of the bridge, then take the threaded end of the wammy bar (the shorter end without the white piece) and screw it in all the way then loosen it 3 whole turns. hope that helps.

lespaul gibson/samick

good pickups and prices?

hey im considering getting a strat. i play with alot of distortion and the single coil bridge pickup feeds back bad! i know you can get single coil sized humbuckers but dont know whats best or how much they cost. please help me out. i dont want to try other guitars as i love the feel of a strat. thanks

Re: good pickups and prices?

if the strat you are getting has 3xsingle coils and you want to change a single for a humbucker then you will need a seymore duncan hotrails pickup, they are very high output cost around £80 each $120???, if you want a cheaper option go for the Kent Armstrong pickup.

I'm looking for a used Boss ME-10 to purchase. I will pay market value for a good, clean Boss ME-10 in perfect working condition. Missing owner's manual is okay. No factory shipping carton is okay. Please contact me if you have one to sell. Thanks.

Re: Boss ME-10 wanted

Hi, I have one. Market price, no owner's manual, no factory shipping carton either, but very good condition, except for the external painting, that was remaked by the last owner.

Hey GURUS Id this guitar ??

Need some help people,no nothing about this guitar ???

http://mysite.verizon.net/vze1p5vc/cimar/cimar.html

Re: Hey GURUS Id this guitar ??

Hey there Tom, I can't tell you much about your particular guitar, but I do own another two cimar models. One is a 1974/74 les paul body shape with a bolt on neck in metallic green, and the other is a double cutaway tobacco sunburst, sorta halfway between a strat and a PRS. Apparently the cimar guitar company used to share manufacturing facilities with the early Ibanez guitar compant and as such used the same pickups an wiring but were different shapes with a different name on the head..........I hope this helps

Gibson Dove copy

Hi
Recently bought a guitar which when compairing with pictures on the net seems to be almost identic to Gibson Dove, the label says: "Ginza model no. GW 120 Made in Japan". Owner before me had bought it on an auction 15-20 years ago, since then been stored in a hardcase, in mint condition! Has anyone heard of a guitarmanufacturer called Ginza? Been searching the net, found nothing! Grateful for any info. Regards Gert Pettersson

Re: Gibson Dove copy

didnt yamaha have a copy called ginza? from late 70's?
try checking yamaha out, seems to ring a bell.

P.A. Advice please!

hi, i'm in a young band & we only really started about a year and a half ago, we're finding p.a's a little bit of a problem at the moment. The problem is that even if we paid 500 quid for a system it wouldn't be loud enough. The one that we rent out is about 600w (i think) hich is not enuf, using a powered mixer & speakers. But how about if we were to buy a powered amplifier then a seperate unpowered mixing desk
Take these as examples:

Behringer EP2500 - 2x1200watts Stereo Power
http://www.soundslive.co.uk/moreinfo.asp?ID=2998

Behringer UB1832FX Pro - 18 input 3/2-bus mic/line mixer with mic preamps
http://www.soundslive.co.uk/moreinfo.asp?ID=1914

would these get me 6 times the volume of using our current rented p.a. also the mixer says it is is 18 inputs, but that is not the same as an 18 track mixer??

Thanks for any help you can give me, please email! thanks

Re: P.A. Advice please!

Hi,

Is the P.A. needed only for vocals?
