<r><QUOTE author="aox"><s>[quote="aox"]</s>You have no other choice than to use the same screw, or at least a screw with the same diameter and thread.You can use Schaller, as I know they work with our screws.

<r>So I bought a set of EVH low friction volume pots (500k) to swap initio my Shawn Lane Signature, but the knobs don&apos;t fit them. It seems that the pots are too big for the knobs <E>:(</E> <br/> Is there a certain type of pot needed to fit the Vigier knobs?<br/> I prefer frictionless pots so ...

<t>Hi all,<br/> <br/> So I took my Vigier Shawn Lane to my tech to change the bridge pickup to a Bareknuckle Holy Diver.<br/> <br/> He has had a problem though due to the screw holes. This is what he said:<br/> <br/> “Issue with the scratchplate/pickup - there are 3 screw holes in your scratchplate a ...

Thanks Patrice - should I change the tone pot to 500k as well?

(or so I&apos;ve been told!)

Nope, 1megs on the SL

<t>So I&apos;ve ordered my BKP Holy Diver to put in the bridge of my Shawn Lane, and on the advsie of BKP, I&apos;ve also ordered a 500k volume pot to go with it. Will I need to change the tone pot to 500k as well?<br/> <br/> Also, you mentioned there was some funky wiring going on - is there ...

Thanks guys!

<r><QUOTE author="DeLorean"><s>[quote="DeLorean"]</s> I do not know if "thin" is the right word, but the fact that the strings are very close to the frets gives a kind of compression to the sound. This might be what you call "thin".<br/> That is the way Shawn Lane wanted his setting. Raising the ...

<r><QUOTE author="DeLorean"><s>[quote="DeLorean"]</s> Did you buy the guitar new or used? Generally the SLs sound pretty warm and thick (because of the pickups and also partly because of the shorter scale.)<br/> We do use an unconventional wiring scheme on all the HSH guitars, I&apos;m wondering if ...

<t>I’m looking to swap the pickups in my Shawn Lane signature as I just need a bit more balls and the Air Classics are a little low output for my taste.<br/> <br/> After speak to Bareknuckle, I’m considering their ‘Holy Diver’ in the bridge and a ‘Cold Sweat’ in the neck, but I’m concerned about the ...

<t>So I got my Shawn Lane Signature earlier this week, and now that it’s had a setup and fret dress, I’m loving it!! It’s my first Vigier, and the most comfortable guitar I’ve ever played - I’m already saving for another Vigier!<br/> <br/> However, I’ve noticed that the Shawn Lane sounds very thin co ...

Thanks Ben, that&apos;s really helpful!!!
The guitar is with the tech at the moment.  None of the UK dealers seem to have stock of the nuts though - will it be ok if he recuts it, or will it cause a problem?

<t>Thanks Ben - I bought the Shawn lane yesterday (I love it!) - But I have 3 more questions if that&apos;s ok? (sorry!<br/> <br/> I keep seeing mention of a 2011 trem (mine doesn&apos;t have a floyd rose) - that&apos;s why I wondered whether mine was different. So is my 2009 model on ball bearings ...

<r>Hi,<br/> <br/> I&apos;m just curious - is there a big difference between the Shawn Lane Signature vs Shawn Lane Master models?<br/> <br/> It&apos;s the non-Floyd model - how is the trem on the older ones - is it the same as the current trem? <br/> <br/> Also, I&apos;ve heard there are some issues ...

Ah *, that&apos;s a shame!  Thanks for confirming Ben

<t>I’m wondering what the fundamental differences are between an Excalibur Indus and Excalibur Special.<br/> <br/> Am I right in thinking that it’s mainly the pickups and pickup configuration (PAF Classics vs ToneZone & PAF Pro, and H-H vs H-S-H)?<br/> <br/> Reason for my question is a friend of min ...
