    Meximod: My superpowered strat is complete!

    I finally bit the bullet and bought all new parts to mod my MIM stratocaster. Everything is changed but the body, neck, bridge (for now), and nut (for now). I have a Black Tusq nut I wanted to put on, but only to find out the nut slot was routed at an angle, and the stock nut sanded to fit. I...

    Line6 X2 wireless

    I can't answer your question, but would like to give a +1 to the quality of the lowest priced X2. I just got mine and it rocks! Only complaint: Transmitter cable is rediculously long.

    Oh, FYI, Zzounds has the BV120 for $320 new.

    Crate Blue Voodoo anyone??

    I believe Cannibal Corpse used or uses them as well at some point. They're nice sounding amps. Crate isn't a half bad company when it comes to tubes. They get a lot of shit for their low end SS stuff, but come on, in that perspective, Marshall sucks too.

    Good Place to Buy Monitors that's NOT Musician's Friend

    zzounds.com has excellent customer service, imo. Fast shipping (I always get my stuff in 2 days even with regular ground), and good payment plan options.

    Here's Your Big Chance To TOTALLY Diss A Famous Guitarist

    I'm gonna get hell for this, but I can't stand Hendrix. Sure, he's a great guitarist, but unless it's a more well known song like Purple Haze or Fire, the rest of his music is just tedious to listen to. He's a terrible singer and his lyrics suck.

    PRS makes amps now? Wait a second, acoustics too?!

    I don't know how much news this is to anyone, but I was looking through my newest Sweetwater catalog and apparently PRS now makes amps and acoustics. They look gorgeous! http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/AngelusE/ http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Sierra212100/ They make more...

    great albums to listen to for learning monitors?

    My only gripe about Radiohead's productions is that the drums always seem kind of lo-fi...But hey, some people like that.

    great albums to listen to for learning monitors?

    Pick something by your favorite producer. I would do anything produced by Lou Giordano or Steven Wilson.

    Best pedal for a solid state half stack

    A Bugera 6262 with insurance and an Avatar 212 with V30s will put you right at 1k. I have a friend that went that route and it sounds incredible.

    Best pedal for a solid state half stack

    George Lynch played solid states for a long time too. That's not my point. Tube amps still have a sound that can't be obtained from an SS amp, and generally death metal incorporates good tube tone into it's music. Also, you're forgetting that Dimebag's signature SS head, the Warhead, sold for...

    Best pedal for a solid state half stack

    Behringer DISTRIBUTES Bugera, nothing more. They do not design them, make them, or assemble them. Yes, they are rip offs of Peavey's line of amps. Yes, they are cheaply made and are known for breaking. Yes, they do sound amazing when they work. So it's up to you whether you want to risk it...

    Best pedal for a solid state half stack

    Your friend. He doesn't need a stack. It doesn't make him cooler. He's sacrificing the amazing tone he can only get from tubes just to have something more show-offy.

    Best pedal for a solid state half stack

    Tell him to stop being so narcissistic, and get a B-52 AT112. That's all he'll need.

    Shure SH7B for guitar micing?

    SM7b. Works amazingly well on a guitar cab, especially when paired with another mic. This is from the perspective of micing for a vintage/light crunch tone, of course. I have no experiance using this mic on a high gain amp.

    Is a ticket printing service requred?

    I would rely on the venue...If you started having tickets printed for shows, you would have an extra step of confronting the Venue that people would be showing up with tickets that didn't go through them...they might not like that.

    JCM900 Boost?

    Put a clean boost in the effects loop. I've got an MXR Micro Amp in mine and it works perfectly. It's like $70.

    I've got a Boss DD-7. Sounds incredible.

    My fancy new pedalboard

    Looks good, I'd add some support bracing though if you stomp on your effects.
