Hi I'm looking for a good quality/cheap acoustic pickup. Is there anything better than the Seymour Duncan Woody XL for the price? All opinions appreciated muchly.

Shameless bump. Anyone got any help they can offer me with sourcing the correct bridge size for my squier strat? Cheers.

Well it feels pretty lifeless (the new pups are great though) as it is. I would like to improve the tuning stability, tone and sustain and I understand that replacing the nut, stock tuners, and bridge/trem will all help to make what by all accounts might be a quality guitar into something that...

Thanks for the help Spud. At the moment I think i'm gonna hang on to it an maybe drop in a better vintage trem. Of course as suggested I'll keep all my original parts for any potential future sale! The trem is 56mm between the outside screw centres and 2 1/8" string spacing. Are most fender...

Hi, I'm modifying an old early 90's MIJ Strat. Serial N0XXXXX. So far I have changed the electrics to USA pickups and will be fitting some Shaller tuners and a new Graph-Tech(?)nut. My main issue is sourcing the correct trem for my guitar. I'm a bit lost on what to buy. Theres some great value...
