    Re: Pedal novice question re: preamp pedal

    I had a tough decision between the AD-10 and the Tonebone PZ Pre. Both get really high marks. In the end, I went for the tonebone. I realize it may not be my last preamp purchase, because it would...

    Re: Modding a Northfield F5S

    I’d get the Gilchrist (?) tailpiece that NF sells that’s a drop-in fit. Nothing else, really. Ok, splurge on a nice strap…

    I had one for about 2 years and it *needed* nothing. Always thought the...

    Re: Northfield F5S Gilchrist tailpiece

    I swapped in a Gilchrist-style tailpiece on my F5S as well. Huge improvement! No end pin jack so it was very straightforward other than of course having to reset the bridge.
