Maple bodies and fingerboards on SGs and Les Pauls? Has the whole world gone crazy??? :)

...who doesn't suck at bass wanna throw down a walking bass-line to a 12-bar in E? At 170 BPM? All hush hush, no questions...all I need is 12 bars and I can loop. Can provide a sample of what I'm afetr if needs be, I am just incapable of capturing a decent bass tone.

They're showing John Martyn live in Dublin right now. He's playing this awesome tune called 'Spencer the Rover'. He's so good!!!

New song up, a cover of The Jam's "That's Entertainment". Couple of interesting things about this one. Firstly, I've shunned my usual penchant for loops and synths; percussive elements are just me hitting/shaking things. Secondly, it's probably the only track I've posted where I've sung -...

Is tehre a way to use a shelf EQ in SE3? Seem's there's just a curve and parametric. If there's no standard way, could someone recommend a free shelf eq plug?

Alright lads! Few questions about mixing drums. 1) If I've tracked each tom seperately, shoud I pan the individual tracks or will the OH take care of stereo placing? 2) Same question as above, but this time with hi-hatt? 3) Should I sub my drums? I have 8 tracks EQd to taste. 4) If I do...

Heya guys. Do any of you have friends who say "Oh hey, you're into mixing, make all these sound good" and then proceed to dump a mass of unorganised session files in your lap? No? Just me then... So my friends tracked this with some guy using a pro-tools rig, but didn't like his mix. They gave...

I've been scoping out a MIJ Boss BF2. The intrnet - and eBay - would suggest these made-in-Japan pedals are more desirable then their made-in-taiwan cousins. Of course, given that I've read it on the net, it's probably a vicious rumour. Anyone have any opinions?

Had something of a break-through today. Have you ever had one of those moments where your sound comes together? When you're jamming or practicing and things just work out well; your guitar sounds great, you've nailed that tone you'e been after, you're stringing runs together effortlessly and...

Anybody using them? 32-20 picked me up one for christmas, a trem, and I bought another today (OD/Distortion blender) they seem to be pretty good quality for the price. Check em out, I think it's www.artecsound.com

Okay, well I didn't break the Crybaby...the very tip of a 1/4" cable came off inside the 'Amplifier' output socket and got stuck there. Be wary of cheap cables! Anyways, the only way I could get it out was to open the case and pry back one of the three metal bands that bear down on the inserted...

Or rather...should I, TelePaul, endeavour to play a show in front of a real live audience??? :eek::eek::eek: I've been thinking about this a while. I've been playing guitar since I was 14 and can handle your typical classic rock/bluesy covers, and I also have a leaning towards folk-rock. I've...

Can someone recommend a clean booster for around €100?

And spare me the managerial mumbo jumbo, I've a degree in it! :D None of this 'stream-lining', 'outsourcing', 'back-office' crap. In plain terms, can you guys please explain what will change? Because by Dragon's own admission, his announcement doesn't reflect the facts of the situation. Can...

Well I've had my LP Studio for about 6 months now. Took me a while to get used to the 50s neck profile...even coming from playing a Tele, it sure is a fat neck! But the sound off this thing is unreal. It's a totally different beast to a Fender. If you didn't know, I was previously rooted...

Anyone know anything about this?

Is it just me or does fretting a note closer to the nut produce a louder/more sustainign sound? I was thinking about this last night when I was running things through a compressor; the notes past, say, the 15th fret seemed to be really weak and choking out.

I've noticed my Nashville Tele has the rustiest bridge around. It's just over a year old too. It's odd because sometimes when I take my case out of my room and open it theres what looks like condensation on the finish....a very slight mistiness that seems to disappear almost as I open the lid...

Should I even consider this? Read elsewhere Steve Vai - amongst others - do it. If so, does it come before or after my modulation/time fx?

Hey guys. I wanna put an SRV style cursive script on my Yamah Pacifica (this one http://www.abcsounds.co.uk/images/yamaha-pacifica412v.jpg). What's the best way to do this? Spary one on and varnish it? Or a vinyl sticker or something?
