Latest Chit Chat: (September 2025)

At present I'm in the middle of house maintenance jobs and therefore its a bit difficult trying to get time to do anything in the studio, however... I still make sure I get time to play one of my guitars every day. As mentioned on this website, it's a work in progress and I hope to be adding various features as I go along.

Welcome to the New Website folks! it's still a work in progress, however there's already a fair bit of content to view and lots of videos linked from my YouTube channel. If you have any suggestions please don't hesitate to drop me an email or even better, strike up a conversation on the YouTube message board. 

​

As always I enjoy hearing what others are up to as I learn so many new things about equipment and software, and really appreciate folks taking time to chat. All the best... Stu 

Magnet Flip:

In the coming weeks I'm trying to get around to flipping the magnet in the neck Burstbucker pick-up in the Les Paul 60s Standard. It's not a difficult thing to do for the average DIY person but it still needs to be done with care taken not to damage the windings. 

For those unfamiliar with this term. Simply put, it's reversing the magnetic polarity which results in what is commonly called an "out-of-phase" tone. One of the best known guitar names of the 60s who used this tone was Peter Green from Fleetwood Mac for which his Les Paul guitar would become famously known as the "Greeny".
