    ok, The drum is done, the bass is done, but there's still the guitar to do, in a melodic death metal band. The guitar amp: JCM2000 dsl 100. I tried to record it like 20 times and always ended up being unable to capture it right. I love the sound of that amp (actually more than a stock triple...
