Just got a G&L Rampage with the Kahler 4300 X Trem on it...loving it, but it does tend to detune a bit, so i'm going to try to solder the strings. but i noticed that the strings seem to be gouging the living hell out of the cam!! is this supposed to happen!? here's a few pics where you can...

G&L Rampage (tribute series)!!!! wooo!! i'm way too excited over this haha...i've wanted a Rampage since i was 13 and first got into music; now that they have the tribute series, it was an affordable option. musicians friend has a 15% off promo until the 9th, so i got 90 bucks knocked off...

hey so i've got a parker p-42 pro with a hardtail bridge. now, the intonation on many of my strings is sharp...so when i hit the 12th fret, it's VERY sharp. thing is, the bridge saddle is ALL THE WAY toward the back (toward the stop piece) and can't move anymore...and that's the direction i...

personally, i cannot for the life of me get a good sound out of my Sansamp that makes me want to use it more often for recording. i just can't..i've fiddled with the settings so often on there, but i can't get a good tone that i like...anyone have any suggestions? lol "I usually don't even...

so i just got some SIT bass strings because I wanted to give them a try..i found that my ernie balls on my G&L really wore out fast from the gigs (sweat and whatnot i presume) so i decided to try SIT rock brights on there. now, with the ernies, they were the same gauge..medium, 50-105...and the...

hey guys, so i'm using this Ashdown bass compressor (Ashdown Engineering | Bass Amplification) that my brother gave me for free to beef up my schecter model-t PJ bass through my rig. i think it sounds cool because it beefs up the hell outta that bass, gets me a nice tone close to rob deleo's on...

so we had our first show last night, which was awesome! lol and when i got home at midnight, i just threw my huge 4x15 sunn bass cab into my garage...now the garage isn't heated, and the nights here probably get to around 10 degrees lately...right now it's 43 during the day. is it ok to store...

so i'm sure a few of you remember me coming in here with all sorts of drum track samples, asking to critique on them and help me get a good tone....and like many of you said, 'come back when the songs done.' very true, and i realized that afterwards. just getting a drum tone without any music...

i've got one of these in my '89 USA strat, and honestly, i just don't think it works. at all. they advertise that all the strings stay in tune when you bend, but from my experience, that's bullshit. when i bend a string, the low E still goes out of tune. on top of this, every damn time i...

Hey guys, so usually i'm content with how MY set sounds when I record it, but my drummer of my band has his set at my house and we're currently doing a demo....so i've got 6 mics on this beast: Shure sm57 on the snare AKG D770 on the highhats AKG D770 on the smallest tom AGK D770 on the floor...

Hey guys, so when i use my samson 8 track channel mixer, it has phantom power on it. i need to use said phantom power for my one condenser mic, so i have it turned on. however, i like to use my ART Tube MP preamp, which also has phantom power (but it's turned off, because it's being used for a...

i have the '75 reissue jazz, has the pickups with non adjustable pole pieces, and they protrude from the pickup case. now, they're set as low as they can go, and i'm STILL getting that annoying POP sound when the string makes contact with the pole piece, and it's just not going away. is there...

so i've got a fender jazz, it's a Made in Japan 1975 Reissue. got it back in '04 or so, for like $430 used at my local store. so, everytime i dated this thing, according to every fender method of dating, it's between a 1985-1986. it's MADE in Japan, NOT CRAFTED IN JAPAN! every where i look...

so in my 10 years of playing, i've never played live before...wild huh? lol so i'm the bassist in my 3 piece band, and we're playing a club/bar down here in feb as our first gig. it's gonna be great....and i'm not really nervous, but i'm just worried about how well i'll be heard? haha i'm...

so since i just got my first condenser, an MXL v63m stereo condenser, i want to mix my sound of my sure-fire setup of my Sm57 and my e609 with this to create a chunkier sound. to give you a hint, i've uploaded my tone, unprocessed in that it went straight from the mic, to the mixer (which all i...

hey guys...so i've been mic'ing my amps up for years now. my main setup for guitar is mic'ing up my JCM2000 4x12 cab with an SM57 and an e609, then panning hard left/right for both, making the levels equal, and bam that's usually my stereo guitar track...(for the others, i'll either do just 1...

Hey guys, so recently I've been playing in my band a lot, so every night I play I bring my Gallien Krueger Backline 600 head along with all my stuff (not the cab) to my friends house..there I play through his 4x10 fender cab. At home, I've got my 4x15 Sunn cab that's such a bitch to carry...

Ok, so as a bassist, i've always been a tone freak. i love my midrange tone, so i keep a lot treble up and mids boosted, and usually have contour set flat. i just love thatsound, and i love a distinct bass sound. i HATE HATE just having bass be some muddy low, tone at 1 noise where you can...

seeing as my Parker P42 is my first non-strat-tremolo-bridge-guitar, i've noticed something that usually occurs when i tighten/loosen my G and B strings: a *clink* noise. like, it sounds as if something is making a metallic squink as i'm tightening, sometimes loosening, and the tuner needle...

i've had my baby since back in '03....she's a 1989 Fender USA Strat. i think it's the "plus" strat, or something? it's got the three lace sensor pickups instead of regular single coils. it's this crazy cool blueburst color, and it's got that roller nut...the non-popular one, i believe it was...
