You want to use shielded coaxial wire in hollow bodies because the wiring isn't inside a cavity that you can shield like with solid bodies. Hollow bodies come wired this way for a reason. Otherwise...
I usually use braided shielded wire which is essentially self-shielding when using two versus four conductor setups, although dealing with the ends is a learning curve (getting the insulated core...
^ Yeah vibes are hella nice. I have to scheme about it. I probably don't need to take on debt just so I can get a 2nd instrument. If I get the money I can decide if I want to divide my practice time...

All tubes are non-linear and have much higher total harmonic distortion be they in the pre-amp, phase inverter, reverb/effects loop, or the final power amp stages. They all change and color the...
Short story about Gary: he provides the bass lines at Frank's Big Jersey Camps. Frank sends out the lead sheets for the repertoire about two months in advance so students don't have to spend time...
