Do we have a quorum for that position? 'cause I'm ordering a set for my 535 if not!

Agreed, I have a 575 Mahogany so equipped AND the amp! Welcome aboard Kidsmoke.

I always knew there was something I liked about you Eljay! :icon_thumright:

@slammer - I had to look at the pic a number of times before I realized the magnitude of awesome that picture revealed.

Katie gave me a set of these for my 137. I told my buddies that it was a performance upgrade.

I wonder... wasn't the story that originally they were sent the knobs that go to 11 by mistake, and never really noticed until someone told them? Or am I thinking of something else?

It takes a marvel of physics and engineering to get a guitar or amp to go to 11; why the theoretical equations alone would make even the greatest mathematician's head spin... let alone trying to show the proofs.

 

I hired a crack team of engineers and physicists, fresh out of MIT, to try and implement this on my guitars and amps - it took many long days and sleepless nights, but alas we eventually ran dry on grant money and could not find further funding to continue.

 

Then one day my brother n law came over to drink a few beers and play some guitar when he looked down at an H170 and said "Holy $#*&, this guitar goes to 11!" - I couldn't believe it, evidence was right there standing before me! Now that we have a guitar to study and reverse engineer, the mysterious and awesomely bad @$$ "eleven" is almost within our grasps... people of the HOC, we are almost there, soon there will be "Elevens" for all!

 

I'll be waiting on the edge of my seat to hear from the nobel prize committee.

I believe it's buried in the prime numbers - 1 3 5 7 THEN 11. The secret is buried in that big gap between 7 and 11. That's where the "1 more" boost comes through.. If only Einstein was still alive...

Should I mention that my 5E3 goes to 12? ;)

Yes, but you are on the metric system, so it's not the same :P

Ouch.
