Super Rare 1992 American Fender Stratocaster HSS Floyd Rose. Rock Dream! No hardcase but it’ll come with a brand new thick foam gig bag. Pick up from London or shipping can be arranged for a fee within the UK. This rare guitar screams shred for anyone wanting to go back to the '80s and 90s and rock those power ballads up to 11! The guitar has an Original Floyd Rose tremolo and the highly desired stock DiMarzio Super Distortion humbucker! The body is made of alder for that straight-forward arena rock tone and a very comfortable maple neck/fretboard. Alongside the dimarzio humbucker are two Fender single-coils, and chrome hardware. This Strat is in good condition with good fret life. Tuners have been changed 2 years ago and is in great shape. Also had a full set up and fret crowning by Andy Gibson at Denmark Street a year ago. Pick guard has two tiny holes where a midi pickup used to be. Some marks and dings nothing that affects playability or sound. It’s in great shape considering it’s 28 years old. I can’t find the tremolo bar so you’d probably need to get one. It will probably set you back 3-4 quid. Additional specs are listed below. 3-Tone Sunburst Finish Alder Body Rosewood fretboard “C” Shape Maple Neck 25.5” Scale Length Fender Vintage Single-Coil Neck and Middle Pickups DiMarzio Super Distortion Bridge Humbucker Original Floyd Rose Tremolo Vintage-Style Kluson Tuner

what's the difference between an active pickup & a passive pickup? (tone wise)

My G string (lmaoo) on my Epiphone Wildkat is higher than the rest. I tried lowering the bridge and it didn’t work. Any idea on how to fix it?

I am replacing the pick ups that came with the squier over 20 years ago to Seymour Duncan California 50's. I bought new fender split shaft 250k no load pots and also 3 fender 250k solid shafts by mistake. I replaced the pick ups and wired the guitar according to the diagram and no sound is heard through the amp when contact with the pick ups is made. I followed instruction to take the hot wire from a pick up and touch it to the output Jack and you're getting around from the pick up, the same goes for the other 2, not really sure where I'm going wrong as this is my first time doing something like this. I have included some pictures and hopefully someone can help me out thanks

Bruno traverso Italian master Luthier" . £1999. Unique piece from a master Luthier. Made with antiche concert piano wood. I Think one of the volume controls its a bit stock..? It's supposed to come out to activate the internal booster so needs fixing but it's very simple to fix. 1 small/tinny dent on the head. For rest it's absolutely gorgeous! This a rare opportunity. This a "Bruno Traverso" a famous high class Luthier from Genova. This guitar took aprox 24 moths of wating list. to make it and to collect it and made to exact specifications. Super easy to play The wood chose for this guitar it's over 100 hundred old concert piano and the tune machines and the saddle / pick ups /wammy bar action" are some of the best in the world! They jus by it self cost around €900 . The scale it's 630cm aprox so a little bit easier to play! . It has a control booster built in /for loud sound sound. (that needs to come out) . This is one piece cut solid wood not part solid like other electric guitars. . It has a wammy bar as well. . Bruno traverso strap. . Antiche concert piano wood =over 100 hundred years old. It's a little bit smaller the than normal gui up tars. (l did want it like that so it's easy to take on a plane. It a little bit heavy it's" one cut solid wood" for long notes and sustain. . Extremely versatile rock, jazz, funk and beautiful sustain and tone. .lock up tunes machines. This it's superior quality guitar. I did pay around €3500, 15 years ago. Now Mr Traverso it's charging around €5000 to €5500 for a simmilar model and guitar with similar specs .This one took h long time to get right to specifications. This guitar it's a very special wood from antiche concert piano. The wood it's a pure solid and beautiful tone. This instrument it will serve as long as you live. The reason that lm selling. I don't play it anymore and I want to buy a high class" classical concert Luthier guitar". Rare unique opportunity! Only serious musicians please I will be very happy if it's going to go to a real musician . Please research on YouTube about Bruno Traverso guitars.
