What is a Venus? I honestly cant find one. Made by who? The Duncan pickup option sounds like a pretty good one but then I would want a 59 in the bridge. UGH here come the mods. Sell it. Buy a Venus. Venus has HB/S pickups like you want. Venus has Gibson scale that you are used to. Stock Venus pickup...

Very good points. I did adjust the string height and it make a little difference. Could it also be that the stock neck pickup on these guitars is just not that good ? The bridge pickup in hb mode and split sounds good. Or does this all come back to the 500k pots s? I imagine you've probably tried to...

Wow very good info never would have thought about this. So do I get a 375k pot? :D So there really isnt a pot fix for this correct? Mini humbucker in the neck and 500k pots basically makes this another LP type of guitar? Check the value of the potentiometers (volume and tone controls). Fenders with ...

Convince me I have a nice guitar. Fender Duo Sonic
So I have always just had two guitars a Strat and a Les Paul. The strat looks, plays and sounds awesome and it something I put together in the colors I wanted. The LP is my 25 year old Epi that had everthing upgraded over the last two decates. So I wanted to have something that had a single coil, mi...

Is the new Offset Duo Sonic HS my answer?
So I love the sound of my Les Paul but of course heavy and not the most comfortable when just jamming in the living room. I also have a ton of parts right now looking to build a Strat to cover the single coil sound I am missing but I know I will miss the humbucker. Plus a Strat is a good sized guita...

Left hand pain thinking of going short scale everything
So I think the 20+ years of typing on a computer are catching up to me. When I play guitar now I get a pain behind my thumb from the grip on the neck. I notice that it bother me more on my Strat and my Taylor 114. On my Epi LP it doesn't bother me as much to the point of having to stop. Anyway I do ...

New guy here looking for a Mustangish with a hardtail
So I have been looking around for a specific setup. So here is what I would like if there is one out there. Mustang body, hardtail (love how trems sound but I don't use it), rosewood neck, and would love it to have a cool color like daphne blue, sonic blue, surf or seafoam green etc I ended up with ...
