    ray 34 pickup cover swap?

    Well, I did it. I'll show what I found for anyone that wants to attempt this. This is what I saw when I flipped it over. Notice all of the hot glue. Here's a close up. Remove this foam thing. It's got a couple springs imbedded in it. It has a sticky substance and came off like a...

    Ernie Ball Cobalt Slinky?????

    I was talked into trying them out by the local dealer. I was a little hesitant since they where almost twice the price of the old school slinkys. I play in a hardcore punk band. All I can say is wow. I don't realize that a string could make such a difference in my sound. One night of practice...
