I appreciate all the responses but for the record, I was specifically talking about the Dimarzio Split P which I believe is 2 separate humbuckers. So would I have reduced output if I only used 1/2 on 2 strings? I know the Novak's used both sides...it looks kinda annoying to me. This is...

That's what I was wondering though....I think each half of a split P is a humbucker? So I could just use one half?

I'm planning an 8 string guitar, the lower strings will be a low E and A like on a bass (it will be a multiscale, the E string will be around 29"). I'd like one bass pickup that's just on those low two strings, and a humbucker on the guitar strings. I'm wondering, could I just use the...

Hello all I just got the HX Stomp today...I have to say it generally sounds pretty damn good. I've been messing around with the guitar presets and they're impressive. I'm not the greatest at figuring out tones but I was just wondering if anyone might have some ideas about some Jaco style...

Thanks! I bought a concentric pot so I can do it with three knobs. Hopefully. That's one of 4 projects for this week.

I have found SOME of this guy's stuff extremely helpful, particularly these things where he harmonizes a simple melody a bunch of different ways (simple to complex). You can learn a ton (I did). As I said earlier, you kind of need a piano, but a piano is pretty great to have. There's a...

I'm thinking the obvious answer is a concentric 500k pot on the P bass pickup. I think on guitar that would annoy me a lot, but on bass I don't think I'd be messing with it nearly as much. I suppose I could do the same on the model one, ditch the push pull pots and wire it to one output for...

Hello all I'm ready to modify my pbass. I have the Dimarzio Model 1. I'm leaning towards doing the two input Billy Sheehan wiring, mostly for the challenge of it and I think it's cool. BUT I'm confused why there's no tone control on the pbass pickup. Of the two pickups, it seems like I'd...

Theory is kind of a stupid word for what we are probably talking about. Nuts and bolts would be a better description. Theory is how music works, whatever the music you're trying to play. A lot of the theory that you're supposed to be learning (like classical music theory) really doesn't...

Yup I'm familiar with him.

I'm medium old. 46. Last thing I learned well was photoshop. it's been a bit daunting with f360. Mostly don't want to sit in front of the computer. But I will work on it this summer.

wow ok I didn't use poopie but that's ok.

I've noticed btw that someone will poopie on whatever CAD program you mention. I asked an engineer friend of mine if F360 was cool and she said it was clunky poopie and I should look at solidworks or Creo. Another engineer friend says Solidworks is poopie, use F360 or something else. I think it's...

I haven't invested any time into it at this point, but I probably will this summer, when it's crazy hot and humid and not a great time to make instruments. I'm fairly serious about this and pondering doing it to make $$$ or at least not starve, so I would prefer to invest in the terminal...

There's also CREO and Onshape. F360 does seem to be the standard for instrument makers afaik
