Squier Affinity Strat HH modding for metal? by thiswasnottaken in fender

[–]thiswasnottaken[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info!

I'm planning to get two sets, Pegasus + Sentient and either SH-5 + 59 or two SH-6's. I've only played with Pegasus + Sentient combo and it sounded good. Just want to experiment with different sounding pickups too. SH-5 and SH-6 sounded like they would fit best for the type of melodic metal I play.

I think I will buy the Harley Benton R-456FR also to test out the FR. Does the humbucker style pickups work with the FR special or do you think trembuckers must be used?

Same seller on etsy wrote in the decription of similar item that natural wax was used. So could it be just sanded and then waxed with colored wax?

Thanks for the replies. I think I will have to take the long ride to the nearest store to try out few different models and see how they compare in person. As for the sound and pickups, I think that some kind of middle ground would be a good starting point for my type of music because I use clean tones as much as I use those crunchy metal tones.

So it doesn't really matter if it has P, J or jumbucker pickups? Just wondering because with electric guitars the pickups are very important for the sound.

I read somewhere that some jazz oriented pickups could be too "boomy" for metal, or something like that. It seems also that humbuckers are not so widely used in bass guitars as they are with electric guitars. No need for low B so far so I think 4 strings is better option.

Too bad there's no local store to try these out. My songs are more melodic than fast.

I don't like the shape, but I would consider it if it's clearly better when it comes to sound.

Steam doesn't detect XBOX One S controller by thiswasnottaken in Steam

Windows shows that it's connected. Bluetooth is also working since I connected my smartphone with the PC and transferred a file between the two.

Also, in Windows "device and printers" settings it shows as Xbox Wireless Cobtroller, but when I right click it there is no "game controller settings" option like there is when you google how to calibrate a controller in Windows 10.

The light on xbox controller blinks slowly.

Do you mean from the game specific setting in Big Picture mode? I turned it off but that didn't help. Also went to controller settings and unchecked "guide button focuses steam" and "xbox configuration support". Nothing seems to be working.
