    Guitar Tuning Pegs

    Locking tuners just lock the string in place when you restring them so you don't have to wind so much. A nut can be replaced, or sometimes modified to work better, I have to rely on the luthier shop for that kind of work. I bought my LP from a local boutique shop and they had to replace the nut...

    The New Tone Thread

    Great stuff Greg, I like the first two clips best, that palm mute work with the 57 is pure awesome tone. I've been thinking alot about micing from a few feet away, I think yours sounds good. The palm mutes in the first track sound pro. It reminds me of the poll somehwere here wherein it is...

    Pedal Question

    I think the Tube Screamer is the all time favorite stomp box.

    Towards "A FLawless PC"

    The "patch" is the Admin Shield. It asked you if you were sure what you are doing so that you wouldn't accidentally make unintended (and potentially catastrophic) changes to your OS. Have you looked into downloading/updating the lastest drivers for your sound card from the manufacturer's...

    Modern Fender Amps

    The vintage Rat, the new Rat, or a new Vintage Rat? :cool: Really, it fails as a living room practice amp. Well that's not true, at low volume the cleans are not too loud. Fender cleans sound different though, like a white sheet.

    Modern Fender Amps

    Clean, yes, and 65 lbs, I'm reminded; every time I try to get it up out of the basement without smacking my walls and ripping the corners of the fawn Tolex off the birch. The Marshall Class 5 is small enough, and sounds great through a Greenback cab, but the cleans aren't really what I would...

    Modern Fender Amps

    Lt. Bob mentioned in another thread about issues regarding Fender Hot Rod Deluxe amps and how they may predictably fail (and be easily repaired). I'm thinking about a small, affordable, managable, clean amp that I can use to learn more about pedal tones. I was looking at the Deluxe Reverb...

    Pedal Question

    I went and listened to the two Rats. Meh, the difference isn't big enough to be concerned about and I l already have the newer one. A lot of times guitarists wax poetic about how much better gear sounded in the good old days. I for one thinks it's a bunch of bullshit.

    What's the story with Epiphone?

    This is why I think it helps to take a few lessons when you are first starting out.

    Pedal Question

    Is it any different than the new one that I have? I just bought a Keeley Fuzz Head to use with my Cry Baby, it's pretty cool. I was running a DOD distortion and some blue phaser, I thought is sounded great. One day a nerd friend gave me a home made open-chassis tube pre-amp to sit on top of...
