Well, I've since discovered that the amp will not supply power if you plug in with a 1/4" jack. Still no idea on what phantom power would do to a piezo, though. Not that I'm eager to try it...

I just got an AER compact 60/3 amp which has phantom power on the second channel as the default setup. I would like to use that channel with my hollow body piezo but need to know that the PRS LR Baggs piezo has circuitry to prevent the phantom power from harming the guitar circuits. Anyone know...

I am trying to get three NAMM tickets for the winter show in January 2015 in Anaheim (figured I'd start trying early). I used to go every year when I lived down in LA, but have not been in a long time. If anyone has two or three available, I would be happy to pay a reasonable fee and keep my...

Of course, one important feature of these guitars is that all parts are solid wood, not some form of plywood, as the tops are with Gibsons. Milled to a uniform thickness on a CNC, they are as close to an old school hand carved violin as you can get in a guitar. I love them. I had a HBII, and now...

I've seen this paint scheme before. I do prefer the natural back and neck on goldtops, but this one was made for a while and there are a number of them out there like this. Without examining it in person, there is no way to absolutely guarantee that it is not a copy, but based on the photos, you...

I think searching outside of your company is necessary to consider when making a real change. Internal job changes may make some difference, but you will not be immune to the problems you mentioned. At least by moving to a different company, you may have the opportunity to enter the workforce...

I am considering purchasing a guitar from Willcutt Guitar Shoppe and would like the name of a salesperson with whom you have had positive dealings. Thanks!

My guitars are players so I don't mind. I gig them every month. I do try to keep them in as good a shape as possible, but as I said...

I had a very nice HBII, but sold it to fund a HBSpruce with piezo. My old HBII did not have the piezo. Fantastic guitar, but you most likely will want the piezo option. Excellent guitars in all regards. I got my HBSpruce online through Jack Gretz. It is a wonderful guitar and I would not...

Each guitar adds a different voice to your music. Strats produce an iconic sound that is essential for some types of music. I assembled a nice strat made just the way I like them from components I selected. That's something you can do with Fenders, and it's a lot of fun. That said, I almost...

The responses are absolutely correct. Pinch harmonics are a playing technique and are not related to or dependent upon your guitar or amp. You will need an instrument with strings is the only requirement. That, and some practice. Does not matter how much money is in your bank account, you can't...

Wow. What a top! Nice choice going with nickel hardware. That's my preference, too.

I would put the piezo through a nice PA system with a little reverb on it. You probably have a preference for an amp for the mag pickups. Enjoy!

Has a nice reptilian look to it! Looks like you're doing a fine job.
