Ibanez Quest Pickup Mod
I removed the stock R1 Ibanez pickups to add a humbucker. Since the bridge pickup cavity is single coil sized I had to choose a small humbucker and I went with the Seymour Duncan JB Jr.
I also basically gutted all the electronics, removing the volume pot and moving the output jack to the front, where the tone pot was. The mini toggle switch now just controls the signal of the guitar, switching it on/off.

1996 Fender Stratocaster MIJ Assembly
Переглядів 2,2 тис.3 місяці тому
This guitar was in a bit of a rough condition when I bought it, the bridge and tremolo was super rusty, the high e nut slot was filed down too low and it had a couple of stripped screws. Also the previous owner had stainless steel frets installed and this was possibly the reason that the neck developed a very big hump after the 12th fret, making many notes choke out especially when bending. I h...

Removing Locking Mechanism On Neutrik Jack
Переглядів 1,6 тис.11 місяців тому
The locking jack is great for live musicians, so that they can't accidentally pull out the jack if they step on the cable. To remove it you need to press the red pin first and then pull it out. On my unit however it was particularly stiff as you can see, and it always required both hands to remove the jack. Since I only play at home I found this feature to be a bother, so I removed it.
String Change On Headless Bass
Переглядів 6 тис.Рік тому
This is how I usually change strings on my Ibanez EHB1000. I never liked the look of the pointy end of the string sticking out of the locking mechanism on the headstock, so I found a way to get rid of those whenever I change strings. However this isn't purely for aesthetic purpuses, those pointy ends can and will scrach the inside of your gigbag everytime you take out your bass if you're not ca...

    Ciao Nicosta, scusa ma se io esco con una traccia audio di VOCE dalla DAW/scheda audio (con uscite separate) e entro nell'AUDIO IN del Minilogue, perché ciò che sento non 'assomiglia' minimamente alla Voce, ma invece risulta un fischio (modulabile. Lo stesso che se entro con un semplice jack - MONO deve essere, giusto? - senza collegamento)? Ho provato poi a entrare da un Volca Beats e, premendo un tasto del Minilogue, ho effettivamente il suono della drum machine (modulabile). Grazie

    • @Nicosta
      @Nicosta 15 днів тому

      Se con volca beats ti funziona vuol dire che il problema è o nel routing della daw o nell'uscita fisica della scheda audio. Testa tutto singolarmente e così trovi il problema. Si l'input dev'essere mono come dici te.

    how much slack do you give the strings before you start tuning up?

    • @Nicosta
      @Nicosta 2 місяці тому

      As you can see at 2:20 you can have a little bit of slack in them, the important part is making sure the tuner on the bridge is all the way forward, so you have room to tune to the right pitch. Other than that I just mark the string and cut it.

    Sad to report it didn't work for me. After "disarming" the locking mechanism, I got an intermittent connection. I ended up replacing the whole thing with a Switchcraft E11PKG plate, which bolted in perfectly. I replaced the 1/4" female connector it came with, with a standard 1/4" barrel jack, which is a more robust jack. It requires a larger hole in the plate, so you'll need a step drill bit to enlarge the hole. Soldered everything up, and it works like a champ.

      @Nicosta 6 місяців тому

      @@elisabethkolling6697 Sorry to hear that, could it be that you didn't fully secured the ground prong on the jack with the screw? Maybe the ground got loose and was touching the signal wire occasionaly. That's the only thing I can think of that could cause an intermitting signal

    • @GarethRidout
      @GarethRidout 3 місяці тому

      Similar issue here. Without the lock the plug waggled around in the jack and I had noise (seemingy unrelated to the wiggle). I put the Neutrik lock back the way it was and still it's acting like the main volume pot is dirty. Weird. UPDATE: Turns out mine had a bad volume pot. [It's a dual, the passive one was fine.] If you ever need parts look up IBANEZRULES. Very responsive.

    • @Nicosta
      @Nicosta Рік тому

      Hi Stevey, when we recorded this we didn't have any experience recording guitar. So first of all the tone is not that great since it is just the DI signal coming from the me70. After recording I remember we automated the volume on the recording software to give it the longest sustain possible where necessary. So it's not really a achievable sustain while playing live.
