This thread is relevant to my interests. If Alpha pots are the correct choice for a Japanese Mustang, who in the UK stocks the solid-shaft version? Axesrus have the medium shaft and mini shaft pots in most tapers, however they're split-shaft. Watford Valves have medium solid-shaft Alpha pots , but I...

Only last weekend, I was saying to Fran during our little jam session -- which really should have been recorded for MTV, or YouTube at least -- that I continually marvel at the paving slabs folk on ShortScale use for plectrums. I use nylon Dunlop .60mm, which for most of you would probably be akin t...

Build quality of my Baby Thundaa is top notch, except for the pansy-assed LED which wobbles around and is very exposed -- especially given its proximity to the foot switch. I think the LEDs should be bezel mounted.

I have one of Christophe Huort's plates, shown here, which I no longer use. (I returned my Jaguar to stock before I sold it.) PM me if you're interested.

Hipshot D-tuner

Anyone have experience with these, which I believe Hipshot now market as Xtenders? I'm considering fitting one to my Strat, but some people dismiss them as fiddly to set up.

Not as mental as the whopping £670 this Lovetone Big Cheese went for.

Stripes are being put on hold for the moment. I was toying with the idea of putting the pickguard from my old strat on it. It's got more of a creamy aged look, whereas this one is bright white. Opinions? Any other improvements/suggestions for anything on it? Hate the idea of stripes, however I love...

I have owned or tried all of them. I didn't like any of them tbh, but they are all decent, as in not terrible. I love analog delay trails and I really don't think you can beat a Disaster Transport Jr. for the money. Fucking amazing. I haven't tried the Disaster Transport Jr. but I have a high opini...

I no longer have any shortscale guitars, I sold my AVRI Jaguar a couple of months ago in favour of my '91 Strat. I'd dearly love another Mustang though.

I don't care for them. Owned a couple briefly (Soda Meiser & Rocket); sold them without regret. There are way better Muff-family pedals out there, SUF for one.

SHO works well for this purpose, but I've recently replaced my clone version with the (unfortunately named) Durham Sex Drive, which is even better.
