    distortion pedal wanted

    both, but moreso for recording. the MT-2 isn't terrible live, it's just really hard to dial in, and it always feels like too much, even with the dist. level at zero. if it sounds good on tape, it will be a lot easier to work with live, I think Sparkle Drive? Juice Box? never heard of em. I'll...

    distortion pedal wanted

    Anyone got any old stomp boxes they don't use/want anymore? I got me a tube amp now, and the Metal Zone, as much as it pains me to say this, sucks with it. No clue what I'm looking for, really. Something NOT super hi-gain, and smooth sounding. The MT-2 has these 'jagged edges' that I don't have...

    Unpacking a guitar

    Out of curiosity, how much does temperature/humidity/weather I general affect the tuning of a guitar? Will an in tune guitar go out of tune on an hour long car ride in really hot/cold/humid weather?

    ohms confusion

    Thanks :) Bob, thanks for dumbing it down for me. Bookmarked. Don't have to worry about any of that stuff right now, with being able to match it all up, but I have another head that may give me trouble, if I ever go back to solid state

    Main instrument

    Guitarist of about 17 years, but I'm picking up drums. Costs a lot of money to plat drums, tho. That really sucks.:( ...and that Fujara thing kinda looks like when you get your tongue stuck on a lamp post in winter

    studio monitors?

    Doesn't referencing on an iPod give you a skewed view, having been converted to mp3, or would that be a good thing?

    Ever have a guitar you didnt play, because it was too perfect?

    Even hard shell cases are worth over $100. Most of them, anyway

    Ever have a guitar you didnt play, because it was too perfect?

    If I were a Strat guy, I'd play the EFF outta that! If it's 'your perfect guitar' make it your main gigging/recording guitar. The first one you reach for every time. You could lose everything thing in some random disaster, and regret having never played it. Worst case scenario, you play the...

    studio monitors?

    I keep hearing(as far as budget home recording goes) that it's more or less irrelevant what you get, as long as you"develop a relationship with them" as you put it. I personally have a hard time trusting online reviews, as you never know if it's just some sales rep trying to boost sales. A few...

    Have you ever started learning a guitar solo....

    Just do what I do. Be an awesome rhythm player. You'll pick up about as many chicks as the bass player, but it'll be chicks who "like you for you" :laughings: learn the solo. You got this

    I remember a time, not so long ago, when rock n roll was simple. Just plug and play. What's this about 'shorts, and 'opens?

    ohms confusion

    Now you guys are talking way over my head... DON'T run 16(or what have you) into 4(or what have you)...but what about running the amp at 8(arbitrary) into the cab at 16? That would be like "big hose, little stream" and should be fine, right? It's driving me nuts now! My gf had surgery and is...

    Panning Issues

    Monitors are kind of a big deal, but you can work around it. If you have another pair of MATCHING speakers, switch back and forth between phones, boombox, any other speakers. The more references you have, the better off you'll be. Invest in a huge stack off blank CDs so you can listen in your...

    Have you ever started learning a guitar solo....

    hmmm...great tutorial. I wish all "learn to play..." videos were like that. the toughest part looks like the trills(or whatever they're called) near the end, and the picking accuracy out of curiosity, is it trouble with the fretting, or the picking?
