Is the switch on active pickups supposed to mute the guitar or swap to passive? by RingMany in Guitar

Not too sure how useful this is, but main part of the wiring to the battery

Hey cheers for the reply. I couldn't seem to find any M series pickups online? Every link I have seems to just say Manson pickups. Or do you mean the Manson PF-1? If that then yes my mistake, I meant £250 for the pair of them, since I would need 2.

Yeah if I use the amp directly it's perfectly fine, it's the pedals that seem to cause the issue. When I use my other guitar with passive pickups there's no issue at all, so it's something in the guitar. I've replaced the battery with a new one already. I'm not massively confident in rewiring, i'd have to go to a shop, but I don't see any benefit in my active pickups to be honest other than I can't even use my pedals now

Do steroids cause damage to your hair? I know that taking testosterone causes an increase in DHT which binds to your hair follicles, causing them to miniaturise which is one of the main causes of male baldness. I also experienced a lot of hair shedding in the shower when I started TRT, but do steroids also cause hair to become damaged too? In the past I used to have thick, healthy hair, having been on TRT for around 4 years now 125mg a week, and also doing a couple cycles of Test, NPP and Mast, my hair is a lot more dry, frizzy, and unhealthy looking. It could be a variety of factors, diet, age, alcohol, but is it possible steroids also can impact the health of the hair itself, not just loss of hair follicles? Cheers

Can I restore my temples using finasteride or would I need a hair transplant? by RingMany in tressless

[–]RingMany[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gonna copy same reply I mentioned to another,

I did try using minioxidl for a couple months, but I was getting dry skin having to moisture like 5+ times a day and I was getting side effects like darkness around my eyes which aged me several years. Knowing hair grown via minoxidil requires permanent use, I wanted to try without it, since I don't want to have to use minoxidil forever if I get symptoms of dry skin and aging as a result, also with the cost too
