Jackson JS32-7 Upgrade Pt1
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 січ 2023
- Forgot to upload this before moving, then life got crazy and lots of issues along the way.
My main recording and editing computer is shot, so that means actually cooler grading or putting together playthroughs are basically a no go. Currently uploading from my 2012 laptop, which will likely be my production computer until I can repair or replace the downed desktop.
Another downside to this is that the play through and sound examples are currently locked on the desktop lol..... it's never easy, but I love the JS32-7.
Already working on getting going on phase 2 of the upgrades, but more on that to come.

think you forgot to add in the part of what it sounds like 6:25
Unfortunately all that footage and audio is still stuck on my main computer which has a revolving blue screen of death. This footage was shot and edited 8 month ago, so I figured why not just release it.
The long-short of it is the Wilkinsons were definitely an improvement over the stock pickups. Smoothed out the top end so it wasn't as harsh and opened up the frequency range. Downsides is that the baseplate needed modification and the sound was pretty compressed. But more on that whenever I get around to filming pt. 2 🙂
Nice video! I recently bought one of these and hope to take on a similar project. Do you plan on uploading a part 2 to this eventually? I'd love to hear your thoughts on tuners and bridge options. I think as far as electronics go, I'm gonna go with Dimarzio Dreamcatcher and Rainmaker pups and a push-push (push-pulls aren't for me) coil split tone pot if they make a good 18mm one. Selector switch works really well on mine but we'll see how long it lasts. Maybe some Hipshot locking tuners and GraphTech string saver saddles. Hope to see your finished project soon and maybe hear some sound samples! Rock on 🤘🏻
Hey Alex, still struggling with the computer situation and work has ramped up so even if I had a new computer, I don't have the time right now to any filming/editing/etc.
On the bridge/tuners. The hipshot bridge dropped in seamlessly. I went with the .175 option but am curious if the .125 would have been better/more comfortable. Tuners are Gotohs as the drop right in, but I have hipsots on like 3 other guitars right now so either avenue works.
I will say be caution about the push-push pot. The control cavity is not very deep, one of the reasons you need a low profile/import switch.
Best of luck on your journey!! And I hope to get all of that in a video sooner than later.
I Think the first 5 way switch that you used is a regular lo profile switch designed for SSS or SSH configuration. That will not work for HH configuration you should have use 2502N 5 way switch designed & used by Ibanez HH guitars.
That's a very good point! didn't do as much research into the switch type as I have had fewer issues with them than with pots in import guitars.
Something to remember for the next time. Thanks for the input!
Could you list links to the pots and switch??

@@ExtremeMetalMike thanks so much I didnt catch the capacitator needed, can I run without?
I used whatever was lying around, the internet usually gives you lots of ideas but I'm pretty sure I used a .047 capacitor
Sweet one last question, what wire did you use and where did you ground to because mine right now buzzes so much. Cant wait till part 2 :)
@@riggswebb-ri2gr Any 22 gauge wire should do, like this (www.amazon.ca/BNTECHGO-Silicone-Flexible-Strands-Stranded/dp/B07HGT44XY/ref=sr_1_54?keywords=22%2Bgauge%2Bwire&qid=1681271490&refinements=p_85%3A5690392011&rnid=5690384011&rps=1&sprefix=22%2Bgau%2Caps%2C246&sr=8-54&th=1).
As for buzz, gotta make sure the bridge gets grounded along side the pickups.
Part 2 probably won't be out for a while as the comp is straight shot and I need to prioritize family and work (in that order) before getting all set up with filming again. It's a really fun hobby and I love the feeling of completing a video, but it can't take precedent over responsibilities.
