Marc, thank you for the explanation, it's perfectly detailed, and will definitely make this process a lot easier. And thanks for the tip on the emery board Tony. It's been a few years since I have warmed up the soldering iron, so lets see if I can't go and make a bunch of cold joints.
Hello, I have been looking into adding a blow switch in the form of a push-pull tone pot on my Yamaha 821DX, and have been wracking my brains over how to do the wiring properly. I haven't been able to find any original wiring diagrams for the guitar, so I have gone through all the connections...
Those are certainly nice guitars, and I don't mind the finish options, but I really wish the six string models didn't have the pickup rings, like the seven string.
I'm looking at selling my 2013 Carvin DC727. I'm not really sure on the resell value of Carvin guitars today. Its a pretty basic spec: Mahogany Body 5 piece walnut and maple neck Rosewood Fretboard w/ no inlays Stainless Steel Jumbo frets Graph Tech saddles Locking Tuners Tung Oil finish and...

Thanks or the information and assuaging my fears of wasted time. Definitely going to go pick it up if he is still selling today. And to canuck brian, if I end up not liking it I can certainly do that for you.
Hello all, just a quick question for you. A guy near me is selling a Yamaha Pacifica 821DX for around $200. I have done a bunch of google searching and just cant find much info on this guitar to tell if its a good deal or not. Do any of you guys know about/have this specific model of guitar? Thanks.
I have a Roland Cube 30 for my at home amp right now, which I just use lined into my computer, and I am looking at the THR10 as a replacement. Have any of you guys had/have a cube? How does the THR10 compare. I can't decide if it would be an upgrade or not.
Something about the new design is just off for me. It doesn't feel optimized, lots of empty white space on most of the pages, navigation is a bit iffy when you start getting into the product sub menus. I like the general direction though.
What do you guys recommend for the actual rack rails/cases? I am looking to build a rack system for myself soon and everything I have seen so far is either flimsy or horribly expensive.
