I have a Conklin GTG-7 and it has a push/pull tone pot for coil split. I have noticed though that when its pulled out and coil split is on (not sure how to word this) but when its on it is very very noisy. People say thats normal but when its not engaged I can hear the same noise but very very...
Hey guys, Iam currently in the process of finding the best way to make a sub octave bass. So at a local music store today, I found a groove tools seven string bass for $620 Canadian. That price seems pretty bananas! My 20-year-old self from the past is really making me want to buy...
Hi everyone! This is my first post on this site (hopefully i'm following all the rules for posting, if not let me know please :) Anyway, I am a longtime 6 and 7 string player, and own a couple nice mid-range 7s. I'm going to have roughly $3500, give or take, to drop on a high-end guitar within...
For those who own a Conklin Bill Dickens 7....I have some questions: 1. My bass seems to be way too "boomy" on the low B and low E strings, meaning that it appears to have far more volume and energy than the other strings (however, the other strings are fine in their signal levels). I have...
Ok so it's a few days late as I had to get the pictures onto another computer before I could get them to my own computer but here they are. Also this is my first time doing one of these threads before, so cheers!:scream: The box. Cracked open. A closer look. Aha a Spector Rebop...
Got rid of my PRS Paul Allender to snatch this guy.... A Conklin 7 String.. The guy took care of the guitar very VERY well... The strings are a bit old, but that will change tomorrow. The neck wasn't as thin as I thought, but was surprised that it feels just like my 1527 that I...

Ok, here's the deal... I had a Conklin GTG-7 about 2 years ago, sold it (I know, stupid me!:scream::wallbash:), kicked myslef for doing it, and now want to get another one. I would prefer a non-tremolo version, but I'd be open to either. Anyone happen to have one that they aren't using? If...
One of crazzy Bill Conklin's creatures that sings some awesome jazz, R&B and Blues/Rock. I bough it from Josh Smith (Guitarzan on the gearpage) in 2005 and used it almoast exclusively since then. It is priced much bellow the original price.... just look at conklinguitars.com and see...
OK so I'm sure a lot of you guys have seen this before, but what's your opinion? Mindless wank or shreddy but cool? I personally give it a :yesway: :metal: :hbang: :shred: and think it's probably better than his whole album "Rusty Cooley" combined.
Ok I worked with a different amp model the bomber uber (Bogner Uberschall), same guitar same pickup. I think this one came out much better. Please give me some feedback on what you think needs improvement as far as the amp sounds. Click here to watch Test2-68-69
decided to see where I can start off with my Pod XT so here's a test clip. Recorded through Pro tools with Conklin, pickup used is a Blaze Custom. Putfile - Test Riff 82 Yes I know it sounds awful well to me it does.
