Thanks for jumping in guys. Gives me ideas.
Currently at the house my steel faces the wall pretty closely
So a music stand with legs is a big floor space killer.

Goodrich pot question, ... I think

Hey, all
I know that my pot is starting to get fuzzy, but along the
way can this effect the pot's sound (mid-rangey)?
Thnx for anything!

Guitar cab for Nashville 400? ie: speaker out

Probably crazy. Just wondering about leaving
some 12" cabinet at my church for guitar when not
playing steel.
I would agree that the 15" is fine. Just fishing
for ( polite : ) ) suggestions.

Thnx!

nashville 400 mods --

Hey all,
There have been several mod's and mod kits mentioned and/ or discussed here.

I have a 400 now (stock)and wonder how to get a
summary of them.
For instance I recall one that made the reverb more "Fender-y".

Thanx for anything folks!

Shielding a Carter Starter

Can someone offer advice or tips on, perhaps, adding shielding to my CS pickup? -- To avoid buying a humbucker.

That is, what's involved in doing so.
I might add that touching the pickup or strings does not stop the hum.
Thnx all.
