My old EB-180 combo does that, has done since new (about 2 year ago), nothing bad has happened, so ive got used to it. And my new Mag300H does it aswell, ive found that if you turn down the input/output volumes it helps.

SX SJB-LTD2, rare beast, never seen another one around on the internet, let alone in person. Flame maple neck and fingerboard, gold hardware, now fitted with DiMarzio Model J's. £200 well spent id say, came with a custom SX case, amp and strap from ebay.

The compressor Nick sold me arrived today, not a problem great guy to deal with.

Yet to find ''the one'', but hoping it comes in the form of a 75' RI Jazz, with black on maple fingerboard and loads-a-chrome.....

Erm, the only one that comes to mind is forgetting the key change at the end of Free's Wishing Well.

Pearl Jam - Alive. Foo Fighters - Pretender Deep Purple - Black Night Even though the band is well... 'AWOL', im still learning some of the new set list.

Sorry to de-rail, but a quick question, if this happens: [quote name='Hamster' post='117926' date='Jan 10 2008, 03:59 PM']When you play through the Jazz with the volume control at max, does the signal weaken or vanish for either pickup when you turn down the tone control ?

[quote name='Muppet' post='117489' date='Jan 9 2008, 10:29 PM']Agree with the above. You need to leave 24 hours between coats and then when finished you are talking weeks for paint to harden sufficiently at normal temperature (assuming you're not using a commercial oven). A good quality acrylic clear coat can be applied after you've cut back the dried paint layer but very lightly for the first few coats allowing to dry properly between each. Once the clear coat is hardened (another couple of weeks ) you can then cut it back, leave for another week (as the layer underneath the one you've just cut is then soft) then you can polish. To do it properly takes me six weeks or so. I might be overly cautious but I generally get good results. If you're doing this outside or in a garage then the current weather ain't gonna help either.[/quote] Cheers guys. Its my first time doing this, so i expected a few mess ups. Im spraying in a warm ventilated room indoors, pretty much dustfree. Ill take into account everything you've said and start again tomorrow.

cheers mate, ill give that a go .

Hi all! I was asked by my guitarist to re-spray his strat, and because im always up to try new tech things i said yes. Well ive hit a problem, this is what ive done so far: *Stripped down all the electronics, hardware, neck removed etc. *With 100 then 200 i took the top layer of gloss of the body. *Wiped down with white spirit to remove any dust and grease. *Used a spray on primer, gave it a 5 layers, which came out really even. *Sanded the primer with 1200 grit wet and dry to remove any specs of dirt. *Sprayed about 6 coats of White gloss paint, following all instructions etc, came out well with only one run mark. *Left 24 hours for it to dry. Now this is where my problem is, i bought some spray on clear coat to give it a high gloss smooth finish, well after applying the first coat, the paint started to crack and swell up. The paint even scraped off down to the primer when i poked at it, so i think i hasnt stuck to the primer enough. Ive stopped for now. But im not too sure whats happened. Any guesses?

The patch leads i bought of Higgie just arrived! Fast delivery, no worries and a great guy!

Also the mexican ones use more pieces of wood for the body, which can look ugly bare or with a clear finish.
