in Guitar
so I’m about to embark on my first ever guitar mod
its an ibanez sz520 and I’m looking at changing pickups and pots
im kinda settled on time rider p90 for the neck and their Alnico 2 for the bridge - any opinions?
im also looking at replacing all the electrics, so two volume and a tone plus the jack- how do I figure out the sizes and any recommendations on these at all?

    failing that I know a really good guy just outside of Kettering that is very reasonable
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.
