Dot Inlay

Posted on: 04-29-2008 | Category: Acoustic Guitars

I got a Brand New Ibanez Soundmaker Bass and one of the Inayed dots fell out. any help?

One of the dot inlays fell out of the neck and i lost it at a talent show playing NORMALLY with my band, does that effect the guitar at all? or could it mean a neck instablility i.e the neck is bent to much due to Truss Rod problems. Also is it possible to fix? any ideas thnx =)

Very easily fixed. trim a mother of pearl button and stick it on with a little superglue.

Guitar Center (my home away from home) will either fix it or replace the part for cheap.

How to replace a Tone Pot in a guitar?

I just purchased a guitar with a missing tone pot, everything else is intact. I need to know how to install a new tone pot and what kind of tone pot I should get. Are their certain tone pots? Preferred brands?(I was going to go with DiMarzio) Should I be concerned about the OHMS? Please someone let me know everything about my situation. Thanks

First off, are you handy with a soldering iron? If not, then you either need to practice on something else first or get someone who knows to do the work for you.

And yes, you should be concerned about the “ohms” (the proper term in this case is “resistance”). If you’re guitar has Single Coil pickups on it, then you’re going to want a 250k ohms. With humbuckers, you’ll use 330-500k ohms (with the “k” meaning 1000, so 500,000 ohms).

Pots come in two tapers; linear and logarithmic. The log tapers are also informally referred to as Audio Taper, so use one of those.

You’ll also need to be concerned that the pot fits physically in the guitar. The come in many different shaft diameters and lengths.

If if the tone pot is missing, then the Treble Bleed capacitor (that makes the whole thing work) is probably missing too. Different guitars use very different values of caps. The larger the value of the cap, the darker the sound gets when you turn down the pot. Les Pauls usually use a 0.47uF (micro-farad) ceramic disc cap. Personally, I usually change those to a 0.33uF or 0.27uF, depending on the pickups in the guitar (it’s all very interactive).

Wiring diagrams can be found at www.seymourduncan.com . That should help you along.

DiMarzio does not make pots, they buy them from an electronics manufacturer and have them private labeled.

The best pots out there are CTS and Bourns, but they’re getting hard to find now.

Good luck.

Greetings from Austin, TX

Rod Stewart Tickets – Rod Stewart 2010 UK Arena Tour

Roderick David “Rod” Stewart, CBE (born 10 January 1945) is a British singer-songwriter born and raised in London, England and currently residing in Epping. He is of Scottish and English lineage.

With his distinctive raspy singing voice, Stewart came to prominence in the late 1960s and early ’70s with The Jeff Beck Group and then faces. He launched his solo career in 1969 with his debut album An Old Raincoat Won’t Ever Let You Down (US: The Rod Stewart Album). His work with The Jeff Beck Group and Faces proved to be influential on the formation of the heavy metal and punk rock genres, respectively. Both bands were also pioneers of blues-rock.

In 1999, Stewart was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, for which he underwent surgery in July 2000. Besides being a major health scare, the resulting surgery also threatened his famous voice, and he had to re-learn how to sing. Since then he has been active in raising funds for The City of Hope Foundation charity to find cures for all forms of cancer, especially those affecting children.

On 11 October 2005, Stewart received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6801 Hollywood Blvd. (Star number 2093) On 18 April and 19 April 2006 Stewart was the guest artist and celebrity vocal coach on American Idol, leading the remaining seven finalists in singing entries from the Great American Songbook.

Throughout his career Stewart has been known for his liaisons with attractive women (fathering seven children with five of them; the oldest being born in 1964 and his latest child being born in November 2005). 1963-1964 Art student Susannah Boffey one daughter Sarah Thubron Streeter (born 1964) who was put up for adoption, 1971-1975 Model Dee Harrison, 1975-1977 Actress Britt Ekland, First marriage (1979-1984) to Alana Hamilton (ex-wife of actor George Hamilton) one daughter Kimberly (born 21 August 1979) and one son Sean Stewart (featured on the reality shows Sons of Hollywood and Celebrity Rehab) (born September 1, 1980), 1983-1990: Model Kelly Emberg; one daughter Ruby Stewart (born 17 June 1987), Second marriage (1990-2006): to model Rachel Hunter; one daughter Renée Stewart (born 1 June 1992) and one son Liam McAlister Stewart (born 4 September 1994). They separated in 1999 and eventually divorced in 2006. Third marriage (2007-present): With his new wife, model Penny Lancaster-Stewart, he had his seventh child, a boy, Alastair Wallace Stewart, on 27 November 2005 in London. The couple married on 16 June 2007 on board the yacht Lady Ann Magee moored in the Italian port of Portofino.

In reference to his many relationships, Rod Stewart was once quoted as saying, “Instead of getting married again, I’m going to find a woman I don’t like and just give her a house.”

During his career, Rod Stewart has been a member of a number of groups including Jimmy Powell and the Five Dimensions (1963) The Hoochie Coochie Men (1964–1965), Soul Agents (1965-1966), Shotgun Express (1966), The Jeff Beck Group (1966–1969) & Faces (1969–1975).

Rod Stewart announces 2010 UK Arena Tour In what will be one of the most eagerly awaited highlights for 2010, Rod Stewart announces his first indoor shows in five years, a 7 dates UK & Ireland arena tour in May. The Tour will starts from 11 May at O2 Dublin, Ireland and ends at 29 May at O2 Arena, London.

Noiseless Telecaster

Posted on: 04-27-2008 | Category: Acoustic Guitars

Can I install 2 (new) pickups along with the 1 pickup left in my 3 – pick up telecaster? ?

Just pick up these Fender Mod shop pickups http://accessories.musiciansfriend.com/product/Fender-SCN-Samarium-Cobalt-Noiseless-Tele-Pickup-Set?sku=301648

and want to install them on this tele..

http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Fender-Deluxe-Blackout-Telecaster-Electric-Guitar?sku=515524

The tele has 3 pickups, but this set only comes with 2, is it possible to install them, while still using one of the old pickups?

Yes you install just two new pickups while leaving one of the original pickups. Just cut the wires to the pickup you want to replace leaving an inch or two so you can solder on your new pickups. As long as you wire the new pickups just like the old ones everything will work just fine. The only issue you will probably have is the newer pickups will more than likely have a higher output, that is to say be louder that the original pickup. Just adjust the height of your pickups to balance out any major volume differences.

Bell Knobs

Posted on: 04-22-2008 | Category: Acoustic Guitars

How I can train my two dogs to ring the bell on the doorknob when he needs to go to the bathroom?

I used the bell method with great success! I have a month old Aussie puppy six years that does not bark, so they taught him to speak was not an option, and I did not want dug kicking my door. I did a little ribbon of bells and hung it on the doorknob. Every time I went out to go to the bathroom I refer to the bells and wait until the steps and then went out. The first couple times I rubbed a little peanut butter on them so it gets the idea that pb licked out. It took nearly a month to do this before realizing that he could decide his ring on his own, but I have a friend whose dog is that in two days, so it just depends on the dog. In As for the call that just hit the streets, it sometimes happens, but as with any method of "asking" you teach. Occurred more in the beginning, when he realized, "hey these bells to get the door open," then it does now. I would take him out every time they sounded the bells (although I did not think I had to go), and if he just tried to play a bit we went back in. So the bells did not believe that only worked sometimes (and begin to pee on the floor inside), but also realized that they were only to use the potty. A couple of months later, now every time rings that have to go out, and really only when you need to go (except when he had a urinary infection!). The other good thing about it is we can take the bells of someone's house when we visit, and hang on the door, and he knows how to "ask" even in a new place! Good luck!

Guitar Pickup that is in the middle?

ok my guitar has a humbucker in the neck, a Single Coil in the middle and a humbucker in the bridge. I'm thinking of getting new pads for the media. The Seymour Duncan Hot Rails. http://www.guitarcenter.com/Seymour-Duncan-SHR-1-Hot-Rail-Stacked-Single-Coil-Pickup-300300-i1127440.gc and wonders if you want them in the neck or bridge. you go in the middle of a neck or Bridge Pickup? And I'm thinking of getting a Seymour Duncan Invader in the bridge. http://www.guitarcenter.com/Seymour-Duncan-SH-8-Invader-Pickup- I1127400.gc 300 070, is the invader in the bridge and the Hot Rail in the center a good combination for a metal sound?

Hmm … What kind of guitar is? That ….. is a strange combination any way, I do not think it matters with single Coil Pickups, just pop the center and mount to the same height as the original. That should be fine. Metal And you should not need the combination of the two trucks. The metal is usually done with humbuckers at the bridge. Even if you use the combo, it is better to have a high gain and a hot rail in the middle and weaker than a single coil. I think it's better to always obtain comparable levels of their trucks. If a truck is higher gain than the others, will have to mess around with amp settings all the time. For example, I have an Epiphone doubleneck (pictured) and start one. The Epi has humbuckers, the start does not. I have to change all settings on my amp and similar sound volume for each instrument in the same volume level.] So I just recommended changing his truck first half and see how it goes.

Ford Focus Body Kits

Lip, bumper replacement, and wide body kits are easy to find. Either you purchase at your neighborhood or you buy online. If you ask me, it is better to purchase online since it will save you time, effort and money. But while purchasing online may seem to be very convenient, it is most of the time not safe if you are not careful. Considering the huge numbers of scam artists online, it is not unlikely that you can be their next victim. If you do not know how to distinguish a legitimate company from a fraudulent one, you may end losing all your hard earned cash. One of the best ways to protect yourself from these good for nothing scammers is to conduct a background check. You may call Better Business Bureau and see if the companies you have listed are registered with them. BBB protects you by ensuring all the companies registered to them are always being closely watched regardless of any kind of behavior. BBB makes sure that high standards for trust are set and maintained. They exist so consumers and businesses alike have an unbiased source to guide them on matters of trust. They provide educational information and expert advice that is free of charge and easily accessible to those who want to make sure of a safe transaction online. Aside from BBB, you can also phone Consumers Advocate and ask if there are any related reported misconducts regarding your prospects. Consumers Advocates should be able to tell if a company can be trusted or if a company will just steal your hard earned money away.

Now, before purchasing a body kit like a ford focus body kit for instance, you have to make sure which type of focus body kit fits you. Will it be a urethane or a fiberglass?

While urethane is flexible, durable, and cannot be repaired, fiberglass, on the other hand, is prone to damages. Depending on the climate in your area, you will have to choose which among the kind of kits suits you.

Also, when purchasing any kinds of body kit, make sure that it fits the exact specification of your vehicle. There’s no use in forcing a body kit to fit your vehicle if, in the first place, it is not intended for it. No matter how pretty a body kit is, if it does not fit your vehicle, it will be useless. Be sure to consider these tips so as not to put your money to waste. Purchasing body kits involve the right planning and right execution when it comes to installing it. Make sure that after the kit has been installed, you take it on a test drive and observe if there are any funny sounds caused by poor installation or loose bolts. If there are no any installation problems and everything seems to be working well, you can now make your girlfriend proud and make everyone stare with envy!

The Best User Friendly Electric Guitars

If you`re in the market for an Electric Guitar then you probably want one that is well suited for your taste. There are some made for beginners while others are designed to handle the most expert level skills. Electric guitars are usually a bit slimmer than non-electric guitars and have a shinny finish to them. They are sometimes lighter and require a cord attached to them that plug into a wall. The sound that comes out of an electric guitar is mind boggling, it sounds awesome even if you`re not a pro.

The Squier by Fender mini Strat Electric guitar is a great one for starters. It has 20 frets and is perfect for smaller hands. Its Single Coil pickups and master volume and tone controls make it great for anyone trying to pick up the sounds. It is made with rosewood on the fretboard and a Hardtail Bridge, a maple c-shaped neck helps to support its design.

Line 6 Variax 700 Electric guitar with tremolo is a great guitar with simple and instantly familiar controls. There are dozens of classic guitar sounds that bolt from its carved ash mahogany body. One single piece of Maple Neck and rosewood fingerboard gives it a classic feel. It also has a Gotoh tuner and is powered by a footswitch that selects between outputs.

The Dean Boca 12 String Electric guitar is a nice looking guitar that is jammed with perks. It has a semi Hollow Body with arched top and dual ham buckers. The grover tuners and adjustable bridge make it the right one to have! It also has a Rosewood Fretboard and a three way pick up selector.

The Schecter omen 77 string electric guitar is an awesome one for the value. It is made from maple and rosewood and consists of a 25,5 scalot neck and fret board. There are 24 Jumbo Frets and dual humbuckers with a Style Bridge for extra support.

Epiphone G-1275 Double Neck Custom Electric guitar is a great looking model. It has a mahogany body with a Flamed Maple top and a heritage cherry finish. It has a set mahogany neck and a rosewood fingerboard. Featuring a parallelogram inlays and two alnico classic humbuckers. This guitar is finished with Chrome Hardware for a complete polished look.

The laguna LE50 short scale electric guitar is a nice looking guitar. It has black hardware and a Fixed Bridge. The fingerboard is made from rosewood and the neck is made from bolted on maple. This guitar is easy to learn on with its lightweight feel and sharp sound quality.

When you are looking for a guitar the best way to meet your match is to ask a music expert for help in finding one. They can put a few in your hands to see which one feels right. Some guitars are made especially for Left Handed people, so if you are one of those special kinds of people then there is one designed for you. The right guitar will feel great in your hands and will motivate you to want to play it.

The sound of the guitar will vary between models. Try a few out from different price ranges to see if you can tell the difference, chances are if your new to the idea of electric guitars then you probably won`t be able to tell the difference.

How to get rid of superficial scratches in brass?

I have some small antique collectables that have some (solid) brass components. One of them has some very fine superficial scratches. I have tried brasso and you can still see the scratches. What do I use? and where can I get these items in Australia? (Bunnings warehouse maybe?) or can I take it somewhere? I am looking for a flawless finish. Thanx in advance

rubbing compound
you need to let the brasso dry first before rubbing it.
I used to use that to fix scratches on my military buckles
