+1 on Hartke. My live rig is an LH500 running through a pair of 2x15s and i couldnt be happier. LH500/1000 are great deals. Simple, rackmountable, reliable, and cheap. Good clean/old school vibe. Beyond that, you really cant go wrong these days with something from Markbass, SWR, Mid to high end Ampe...

either way, a wound third feels good!

So twist the shielding and the braid together, solder the red to the main Gibson wire, and solder the green & white together right?

Edit: Nevermind, instead of patching to the old wire ill go strait to the pots....so the braid is ground and the center is red..i think i got it...

Or maybe not?

The lead guitarist in my band has a late model Gibson V that I just put a DiMarzio Evo II in. Not only is it sexy but it sounds amazing now to boot. Can't say I cared much for the stock pickups though. I definitely prefer it to the pointier ones though.

As someone mentioned above, ogg and flac are ideal, but they still aren't really mainstream yet. Your best bet is .wav
