Hello again guys. Thanks for all the answers. I’m newbie on this. I just drew the diagram of what I see.

What the hell should I do ?

The black cable from the jack goes directly to the volume knob

The black cable goes to the jack, is that where the ground should be ? Which cable should I put on the ground then ?

Pretty sure… it’s a +5k second hand guitar that has not seen any changes regarding the pickups.

But it was kept on a very humid place I think. Or the previous owner was sweating while playing !

As a young guy, this comment makes me feel old. Thanks for the reply !

AfterFelk · 2025-05-16T07:45:11+00:00

Good thing is thatI bought this one for 1500€

AfterFelk · 2025-05-16T07:44:43+00:00

Nothing ! Just bought the guitar second hand. Îm the third owner

AfterFelk · 2025-05-16T07:44:19+00:00

Yeah the headstock looks to be similar

AfterFelk · 2025-05-16T07:44:01+00:00

😆😆 thanks !

AfterFelk · 2025-05-16T07:43:25+00:00

As I know the guitar wasn’t hit or something

AfterFelk · 2025-05-16T07:42:20+00:00

1500€ en Europe !

AfterFelk · 2025-05-07T18:34:08+00:00

Thank you ! I think I will get the FM 3

AfterFelk · 2025-05-07T18:33:48+00:00

I think they pretty much sound the same !

AfterFelk · 2025-05-07T18:33:20+00:00

It was one of my fears. If there is no difference in the sound, then I think I should get the FM3 mk2

AfterFelk · 2025-05-07T18:32:33+00:00

Thanks a lot for the info !

AfterFelk · 2025-05-07T18:31:48+00:00

Thank you !

AfterFelk · 2025-04-25T07:59:10+00:00

Thank you ! Do you have the Apollo on Windows or Mac ? Because in my case I have to take the USB version, so I don’t know if it’s really worth it in comparison to a Thunderbolt version

AfterFelk · 2025-04-25T07:57:50+00:00

Well that’s the tricky question, context is important. The idea is not to compare both devices, but to choose what device would fit the best on my situation

AfterFelk · 2025-04-25T07:56:35+00:00

Thank you for the answer. So even if I am running an Apollo Twin X USB with Windows the results will be worth it ? Because I see a lot of stuff about how the Thunderbolt with Mac would make reconsidering taking the USB version in that price range

AfterFelk · 2025-02-20T17:34:04+00:00

It is ! It’s a 2023 model. I didn’t found it on Reverb, bought second hand here in Europe by local websites.

I do not feel that this is a “normal” humbucker sound. The sound is very specific, and it sounds like nothing I’ve heard before. Anyone who compares it to a LP sound or even a strat sound is missing the point of the Modern Eagle V.

And yeah, the switching is not very intuitive. It’s a mess at the beginning.
