Also comes in white color... Forum [Trending Gear]( [Read more](
[Hendrix Tones in Digital Form?]( Chevron · Dec 10, 2022 at 10:45 AM · Replies 23 I am having fun on a mission to nail some Hendrix tones, or close to for jamming fun. Might even expand that to some Tv/Film work. So far I've been really digging the Amplitube Hendrix Anniversary bundle, but before I drop some beans $$ on the bundle I wonder if there is anything else I...

[New Mac coming tomorrow]( art_z · Dec 12, 2022 at 11:00 PM · Replies 9 Upgrading from 2015 MB Pro. I use Logic and have several Apollos via TB2. Also run a few Waves plugs. New Mac is a Mac Studio 32GB/512gb. Should I do a fresh install of everything? I figure update the OS to latest. Install latest Logic. Then install UAD and finally the Waves plugs. Other...

[Diamond Pedals are back?]( Nigel Davenport · Dec 13, 2022 at 4:19 PM · Replies 10 Very weird phenomenon now with the pedal being powered by battery. Any twist of the delay knob registers as sound that gets delayed. The input jack was laying on the carpet completely untouched and at one point I even held it to the air to make sure there was no interference...

[Beato and Billy.]( ZepFuzz05 · Dec 13, 2022 at 4:58 PM · Replies 8 It's a pretty good one, IMO - Corgan seems like an insightful and eloquent guy. Latest: At the very end, BC says "It all started with Yngwie, I just wanted to be a guitar player, I really did". Would never have guessed he'd list Yngwie as an influence. Great interview overall, lots of behind the scenes revelations. Hearing that Butch Vig gave Kurt Cobain, BC's recording method/tone for... Forum [The Sound Hound Lounge]( [Read more](
[Fender American Original Stratocaster - What's the general opinion on these?]( nicotele · Dec 14, 2022 at 7:52 AM · Replies 9 I've been looking fo a Strat, and an AO 60's Strat showed up here, made an offer an was accepted, so had to grab it. Been considering these, getting a Nash again or a FCS, but for the price and specs and quality, the AO are fantastic I think, and I like 9.5 radius, that's why AVII or...

[V32 Palomino(U.S.) speaker swap.]( Jonymacmadcap · Dec 13, 2022 at 11:30 AM · Replies 6 First let me say how much I adore this amp with these guitars. That said, the highs that the broken in 70/80 deliver, are borderline ice pick. The overall feel of the tone is ok, but perhaps a little compressed. Even then, the low end could use some tightening up even with the cab decoupled from the floor. I'm looking to do something that may not be possible, "open" the tone up and...

[Is this noise from the amp or speaker?]( MJ Slaughter · Dec 6, 2022 at 5:11 PM · Replies 9 This has been intermittent and only occurs on the lower notes, low E string specifically. It is a 2 channel 50 watt amp, Frenzel SPT800, but it's scaled down to half power most the time, including when the recording was made. One rehearsal it was acting up for a new minutes then cleaned up but... Forum [Amps/Cabs Tech Corner: Amplifier, Cab & Speakers]( [Read more](
[WWYD? Les Paul Standard and Gretsch vs Les Paul Custom]( themightyjay · Dec 13, 2022 at 7:41 AM · Replies 51 So I’ve always wanted a white Les Paul Custom in Alpine White, it’s been my dream guitar since god knows hoW long. I have the opportunity to get hold of one but it would mean trading in my 60’s Les Paul Standard and Gretsch G6228. I quite like the LP Standard but I wouldn’t say I’ve...

[I.am seriously.considering a Yamaha revstar 2022]( 5F6-A · Nov 23, 2022 at 11:10 AM · Replies 36 I still have my Revstar RS620 (like the one below). String changes are a little different, but still cool. The pups remind of an overwound, vintage-y humbucker. Sort of crisp in the highs? Good neck carve, somewhat larger than a slim-taper, but comfortable and somehow familiar; really a usable, inviting guitar overall... Forum [Guitars in General]( [Read more](
[Practicing with a Metronome: how do I measure up?]( TheTyrannyOfDistance · Nov 25, 2022 at 11:49 PM · Replies 16 I began practicing with a metronome about 3 months ago. When I started I could only play at 60 bpm (8th notes) but within 2 weeeks I made it to 120 bpm. Since then I’ve leveled off at 144 bpm consistently (using the simple 1-2-3-4 pattern) and up to 152 bpm on good days. As for other patterns... Forum [Playing and Technique]( [Read more](
[What's the real reason amp prices have suddenly skyrocketed to ridiculous levels?]( guitarman3001 · Apr 18, 2022 at 3:16 PM · Replies 652 We were discussing this on another thread unrelated to this topic so I thought I'd make its own thread. Last time I checked amp prices they seemed to be pretty reasonable. Examples - Marshall DSL40CR, $749. Friedman Runt 20, $1100 or $1200 or around there, Marshall 20 watt JCM800 $1299...
