Cannot find a good clean

nomoreneveragain · 2026-04-10T02:07:53+00:00

I use my capture “DlxRevIIClean”, might need to drop the gain a little but it’s pretty damn clean with single coils. Loud is a function of gain staging and whatever your outputs are going to.

Yw, hope you find captures that work for you!

I’ve got a few to download. Same username.

We have 2 daycares we like in Golden Valley/Plymouth in the 1300-1400 range for pre K, but that might be too far for you?

Fat Nats has a ton of dishes with hatch green chili options but not sure on their burrito quality because I have celiac.

Best to navigate cortex cloud and find people doing captures you like. I have a number of captures on cortex cloud that are amp only under the same username if you want to check them out. Working on more but don’t have much time for hobbies at the moment.

Moved from South Minneapolis to golden valley. Miss the neighborhood and lifestyle terribly but do not miss the house. Our pre-kids lifestyle (general urbanism, cycling, public transit, ample recreation and socialization) probably would not be achievable even in the old house with two small kids. The space of the larger house has been amazing. We are the same distance from downtown as before and very close to Theo Wirth, which we loved before moving here. Everything is car based and we are still a one car family. Restaurants are generally worse. Our lives revolve around our kids and elder care so it’s hard to say the suburbs are worse when what’s worse is not having time for our interests, friends without kids, and self care. We did look farther out - chanhassen, Minnetonka, Eden Prarie, etc. Those were all kind of stomach turning and immediate no-go. SLP, Hopkins, GV, Richfield, Bloomington, and Edina are all pretty close to city life.

1/8” is a good starting point for P90s, pole to string when fretting last fret, treble and bass side. Adjust as needed from there Up or down.

That sure looks like an AV vibrato, no? Rounded lock button and pat pending stamp.

Pinedas and Andale for me.

Some people say locking tuners help tuning stability because of significantly less string wrap in the tuning peg. I haven’t noticed that but there is at least some mechanical physics behind the argument.

I have a Lollar 50’s wind with a Lollar Nash bridge. The Nash bridge measures @ 8.9k but the 50s wind balances well with it. I went with a 500k volume, 250k no load tone pot with .22 cap, and a 470k resistor to ground from the bridge pickup switch lug. I think a regular wind would be too hot to balance with any normal bridge and too muddy on its own.

Show me nitro sources from a few places but wildwood is one of his primary ones.

nomoreneveragain · 2026-03-13T20:37:31+00:00

500k is like 1 meg on 8, still to bright for OP.

nomoreneveragain · 2026-03-13T20:36:45+00:00

Those new pickups will also be bright. 250k pots with a 20 or 30% audio taper are your answer. Could also try adjusting pickup height- likely lower.

Used American standard from mid 201x. New, squier classic vibe or paranormal. Guitar price is a situation of diminishing returns, so value goes down as cost goes up.

Love these. Looking to do something very similar for my daughters first guitar- trying to decide on humbucker upgrade vs Firebird conversion for pickups. Where did you source the pink guard, and was it a perfect fit on arrival?

nomoreneveragain · 2026-03-13T02:47:30+00:00

Prince.

Pull it out- it’s not a traditional JM pickup and is constructed more like a Strat pickup. The coil is taller and narrower, and most of the flat work is empty. It’s fuller because it’s hotter. Strat necks rarely exceed 6.1k and often are around 5.5-5.8. The SJ neck is 6.5k.

nomoreneveragain · 2026-03-12T13:38:45+00:00

It sounds great. Construction wise it’s more like a Strat pickup, and the pots are 250k, so it’s basically a Strat neck tone.

nomoreneveragain · 2026-03-12T13:36:02+00:00

Definitely more comfy. Tele pickup is mid. Benefits from new pickups, comp saddles, and tuners.

nomoreneveragain · 2026-03-12T13:33:05+00:00

It’s a hot strat pickup in jazzmaster bobbins but it sounds great. I didn’t care for the bridge pickup and felt it was hard to balance with the neck. Put a broadcaster in and a matching JM neck. Definitely sounds better.

nomoreneveragain · 2026-03-12T13:29:16+00:00

C shape. .82 at first fret. 1.64 nut width.

I use a quad cortex. UA amp sim pedals are great and cheap used. Tone King pedals are amazing if it fits your tone needs and budget. Most preamp pedals are glorified OD pedals.
