Well, my pickups were a little hot, so I used my trusty demagnetizer on them to reduce battery usage. Now here I am with 4 AA batteries that aren't cutting it. I should try newer batteries and see what happens.

Guys, why are the 4 AA batteries not powering up my GFS Redwire active pickups? When I bought this guitar, they had two double A batteries going, but said I could add 2 more for the volt mod. So here I am with 6 volts going and there's nothing but silence.

Mojo dude. Such beautiful pups.

Man, it's like he went out of his way to make the ugliest headstock shape imaginable. Then he thought, "OK, but how can I make it even uglier? I know, I'll put my name on it eight times!" Dummkopf! Love Hogan!

I think B.C. Rich headstock look ugly unless reversed, then they look bitchin.

What guitar were the pickups in? I have had 3 guitars with APC pickups. I'm not sure what models they are but they are not all that hot, much more of a PAFish kinda of output. I had a Gibson SG and the stock pickups were a little hotter than the APCs. However, when it comes to tone the APCs are about the best humbucking pickups I've used. They also sound great when they are split. If directed to me, mine's in an Agile 3000M. You shoulda popped out the pickups and see which one's you had . I do know that not all of their pups are high output. They are real gems though. I have to say, since I can't find Ultrasonic pups, these will do. It's awesome to see that you were happy with the sound of your pups while being split. I'm curious about one of their pups that's supposed to produce a nice "acousticy" tone when split (I think the Melvin).

im about to buy a Syrinx neck and persuader lead. supposedly the cleanest hot pickup..and its a passive. . and the syrinx is supposedly one of the most versatile pickups on the planet. Yea, I talked to the maker about 3 weeks ago and he suggested a Syrinx for the neck pickup for me. It'd be coupled with a persuader lead custom in the bridge. I can only imagine how hot the persuader lead is. It's probably just as hot as mine, just EQ'd differently. one thing though, their wiring instructions suck.

I recently purchased the Persuader Lead Custom and it's a super duper hot hot hot pickup. Depending on how much you spent on your pawnshop special, those pickups alone are worth close to $200. How are the sounds from the Persuader and the Malice? Are they EMG like? btw, what all info did you want to know?

Where can I get a Frets99 guitar?
