    Metal Guitars

    I'm looking to buy a new guitar relatively soon. I've got some ideas in mind but I'm posting this up for any extra recommendations. I'm looking to spend somewhere around $400-600 for a guitar to primarily be used for hardcore/metal (and no, that does not refer to slipknot, korn, etc)...

    New Pickup

    My epiphone lp std has really bad pickups (surprised? you shouldn't be). Although a lot of people hate the guitar, aside from the tuners and the pickups... I like it. I've got some money to put into it, so I'm planning on upgrading the tuners and the bridge pickup (I rarely use the neck...

    Metal Rig

    I posted basically the same message hear a few months ago, about what guitar head I should get... now there are some more/new people here, i'm closer to purchasing, and I narrowed it down (slightly). The deal is I play in a metal/hardcore band and am looking for a new head. I have a 50 watt...

    Balancing Levels

    I've got an effect pedal that I am really happy with, sound wise. But, it's output level, even with the level control cranked, is much lower than the level when it's off... I really don't want to stop using the pedal, but it's a pain in the ass to try to use the volume knob on the guitar to...

    Anyone ever gotten rid of feedback in a high gain setting? Do the behringer feedback eliminators or anything else work? Creative EQ? help.

    Are all EQ's created equal?

    I've got a decent sound right now, but I really would like a basic EQ pedal for quick adjustments for individual situations, and for just screwing with my overall sound. It's going to be used in conjunction with relatively heavy distortion so I'm not going to be TOO picky about a little bit of...

    Metal Guitar Rig

    Within a few months I'm basically set on getting a new head (or power amp/preamp rack dealy) for myself for my band that plays metal/hardcore. I have a Marshall JCM800 lead series 50w (1 channel) head right now, that I love, but 1 channel with no gain = no distortion without a pedal. Now I've...

    Tempature and Humidity.. quick

    Normally i don't worry about the conditions in my house because we have AC on when it's hot/humid and the heater on when it's cold so throughout the year, there usually isn't a huge fluxuation of tempature and humidity. However, two days ago the AC broke and it's extremely humid out. My...

    What tubes to use...

    I have a Marshall JCM 800 Lead Series head and I want to get some parts that supposevely have a tendency to spontaneously combust (or at least stop working) right when needed, like tubes and fuses. Anyone know what kinds I would want?

    Tube Amp

    Are there any sites on maintaining tube amps (things like replacing tubes & fuses)? It costs like 100 bucks for a tube replacement at a shop, and only about $10 per tube at zzounds.com (around that at most online stores as well...) which would be a lot cheaper for me i'd assume... also, since...

    rack gear for home studio and live guitar

    i'm looking into getting a rackmount effects processor for mainly live guitar... i've found a bunch of Digitech DSP-128's and S100's relatively cheap used... any comments?... are they suitable for live guitar use and maybe a tiny bit of direct guitar recording?

    stuff like this pisses me off

    i recently got a hardcore/metal band together and after a new song was somewhat finished we decided to record it for the benifit of the drummer.. who is a drummer, and tends to forget things... i put a simple shure dynamic mic (i forget which model, it came with my tas424mk3) on a stand halfway...

    crap soundcard question

    i'm basically an all analog guy... i got respect for digital, i think some great stuff can, and has, been done digitally, but for myself, i prefer analog... whether it be a tascam 4-track or a studer... when i do serious projects i mix down to my tascam 2-track reel to reel, but for just little...

    Portable minidisk for mixdown

    I'm thinking about buying a portable minidisk player/recorder for both just casual use and probably mixdowns from my 4-track as well... I don't need any very special features or anything, just the basics, so how much would i have to spend to get a decent one new or used. Also, how about buying...
