How Could I Make a P90 Hum Canceling???

And then Steve Marriot switched to a long guard 335. I was lucky to see him in concert 1973 with Peter Frampton after that got my Les Paul Custom
Peter just killed it. Dwight who ??

Both of the times that I saw Marriott, he was playing a 335.

I like both shapes a lot on those guitars. My Coronet has the 3x3 and the Wilshire has the batwing. I think either one looks good.

A friend of mine has been trying to get me to buy his '64 Crestwood Deluxe. I wanted a 335 first. I should see if he still has it, or if he finally sold it. It is a cool guitar, and has the batwing headstock.

It's the one on the left.

Epiphone Coronet Electric Guitar

When you need to blast out some no-frills rock 'n' roll, pick up a Coronet. Powered by a single PRO P-90 Dogear pickup, this guitar snarls like a beast.

Confessions of a gear mod whore

I apologize for my callous oversight, Ray. I'll get some pics tomorrow of the dummy coil mount. Just used an old Strat pickup with the slugs, but no magnets, and mounted it in the empty neck pickup route. The new pick guard hides everything. Very convenient and foolproof. No switches, passive...

Adventures in P90's, hum and dummy coils

I've been tinkering again with a bag of P90's and an old guitar. Some of you have seen my double cut triple pickup perversion posted elsewhere on this fine forum. Well now I'll address an issue that I've been dealing with, hum. The pickups that are in the guitar were stock Gibson P90s. I found...

One of these was my first electric guitar. I bought it with paper route money at Charlie Vater’s shop before he started making drumsticks. I sold it to finance my first Les Paul Standard. Always thought of getting another. The photo I found on the internet.

Wow..thats super cool that you worked at his shop. I used to buy his drumsticks, hickory 5b.

I didn’t work there. I used to hang out there every Saturday being a typical, annoying fourteen year old.
