  • HOT-MOD DIAGRAMS AND REQUESTS
    Posted by Tony Andrews March 13

    A couple of reasons for this post. Firstly, I have a growing pile of Strat, Tele, Gibson, Precision and Jazz wiring mod schematics that I could post here, with each one named as to what they actually do. Some of them also have videos to go with them but if anyone wants practical advice on wiring or locating parts, please ask.

     

    Just as importantly, if you have a request for a schematic - whether for an existing stock guitar or an idea you've got in your head - please ask.

     

    All the best, Simon

    Rory Gallagher - maybe his best gig
    Brilliant live gig from Madrid 1975. Hendrix was once asked "how does it feel to be the best guitarist in the world" and he replied "ask Rory Gallagher". They were quite different guitarists but there is a lot to enjoy here.

      Tony Andrews Ah Simon, now you're talking! There's a great album (available through Spotify!) called The Beat Club Sessions - recorded live for the German TV series which really captures his live rawness and actually sounds pretty good as well!
