    Tung oil v Danish oil

    in Accessories and Misc

    Posted · Edited by PaulThePlug

    Danish contains a small amount of lacquer, and can get tacky if applied thick or too many coats without ample drying and curing.

    The lacquer in it is to give a more durable and sealed finish...

    Prefer a Tung or Tru Oil 'n Wax finish, enough of a seal with a more Organic feel.

    I'd get some 0000 Wire Wool to apply it.

    Haven't really 'plugged-in' in anger, but i'd say Fuller, less Top 'n Bottom and more Mid... but I'd say with Less Clarity than the OJ when pushed hard... More Mid-More Mush, but i'm after a Medium Crank Super Bass Sound.

    The OJ does a lovely Stranglers-esq Hollow Hiwatt

    The OJ is FS to cover some of the cost 😉

    Although Delay hasn't been mentioned... and usually placed at the end - less Amp Sim or depending where DI is taken - from my gtr days of the dim and distant past of the early 80's...

     

    I likes my Delay before my Slow and Subtle Phaser... so the repeats get changed, just a little, rather than before, when the repeats are the same! Sounds more Organic to me.

     

    Usual would be Tuner/Compressor/Filter&EQ/Drive&Distortion/Modulation aka Phase,Flange&Chorus/Delay&Reverb/Amp 'n Cab Sim/DI... Depending where you want your DI sound taken... maybe also taken earlier in the signal chain for a mixed wet/dry sound.

     

    Most important give em a go and see what you hear different and what ya like.

    Pickup ring orientation

    in Other Instruments

    Posted · Edited by PaulThePlug

    Yes Mate...

    'Gibson' Set-Neck Esq... usually stop n tail bridge normally have the angled rings of 2 sizes... Small size and edge to neck..  large size and edge to Bridge.

    As the neck is usually laid back 5 deg-ish... plus the archness of the body

     

    So the pickup poles distance from the underside of the string stays the same, even if the strings run further away from the body as the go to the bridge...

     

    'Fender' Bolt-ons necks are usually more parallel-ish to the slabbier body, and less height difference pickup to pickup and string to body, while the pickup pole to string underside stays the same

     

    Strange i had angle surrounds on a Epi Bolt on LPish... swapped en for flat.

     

    The Yam Set or Thru-neck?
