Hard to beat a Mullen. The are extremely stable

Thanks for all the info guys. This is a very interesting topic. Anyone else have any luck with changing out their pickups in their GFI?

Thanks guys. All this info is very helpful. Yeah i have never been one to change out pickups but I just cant get a decent sound out of these GFI III pickups compared to my Mullen and Emmons. Surely both my pickups aren't bad in the GFI. Its interesting to hear what all of you have tried in your GFI ...

Yes mine has the GFI-III pickups. Please let us know how the 705 works out. If it goes good, I will order a set and give them a try in my GFI.

Thank you for all the replies. Do the BL 705 reissues mount right up to the GFI or do you have to modify the pickup in any way to get it to mount? If the 705s will mount right up to the GFI without modification, Also does anyone know if the Wallace True Tone pickup will mount up to the GFI without m...

I am looking for alternate pickups to put in my GFI. Does anyone know if the 710s are a good choice? Will the 710s install easily in the GFI? What other pickup options might be good options for the GFI Ultra?

Thanks

Interested in getting a dobro if anyone has one to sell.

Blessings,
Craig

Brad, I mostly play country and gospel music. What do you recommend? I am just starting out on the dobro.

Anyone have any or recommend any dobro instructional videos or material?

Thanks

Do you all recommend shipping the steel to get it adjusted? I am very hesitant to ship a steel these days. Any thougths?

Craig

I raised my pickups to 1 quarter length and that really helped. The guitar has more bite, volume and is able to cut through the mix.

Thanks everyone for the input.

I recently got the Rd River Valley steel guitar tab rom John Russell and just wanted to share that it is very nicely done and very useful tab. I highly recommend John's tab. Its great learning material.

Craig

Anyone know if there is someone within close proximity to South Alabama who works on Push Pulls? Mainly just need minor adjustments. I realize "close proximity" is a relative term. Just wanted to see if there was anyone close by that works on them?

Thanks

What is the proper pickup height for a Mullen Single coil pickup for a Mullen G2? My Mullen doesnt seem to put out a lot of volume compared to my other guitars and I noticed the pickup height was noticeably higher than my others. That may not have anything to do with the issue but I figured I would ...

Thanks John. I will try that. As I understand it, the MA9 setting works for both the pedals up and pedals down position correct?

Craig

Anyone know how I can go about getting the MA9 setting on my Peterson tuner? It does not currently have it.

Thank you
