amazon has 1 brand and only 2 in stock. They are $15 each and too long on sweetwater. btpa is also ridiculous.. nearly 20 bucks. I need like 20 of them so yeah, a 400 bucks in wiring is just absurd. why is this so hard to find? seems like i should be able to buy 6/8/10/12/18 inch...

Who uses single coils for metal or hard rock (Strats)? Recommended pickups? My main guitar is a Les Paul with Duncan Seth Lovers. It gives me what I'm looking for for rock and Metal. I also am enjoying my Stratocaster (SSS), and like the sounds that Blackmore, YJM, and Uli Roth get. I never see...

Hi Does anybody own Esp Ltd Xtone? Could you please advise me it's body thickness? I need to understand will Gator GW-JAG hard case fit it. If someone could advise me another suitable Gator hard case I would really appreciate it.

FYI, these are pretty good and only $70 shipped Prime. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07KR28VKS/ I had 9 guitars in my office and I only really ever play 5 of them, so I picked up a couple of them to store some of the ones I don't reach for all that often. Pretty solid stuff for the money...

It's the song that Coldplay apparently "ripped off" for this song Viva la Vida. I don't really care if they did because for guitar music it's awesome. I saw satch live in 2005 with I was 13 and Eric Johnson opened up. Joe made me watch to quit guitar. It was unbelievable.

Ok who was the "lucky fucker"???? Good luck finding it :smoking:

Hey: Metal guitar player, from Sabbathy downtuned to thrashy stuff....I am on the quest for a new axe, my MIJ Jackson DKMGT with 81/85 is getting a little long in the tooth.... I recently bought an Ibanez SIX Hard tail Iron Label...made in Indonesia...the fretwork was awful and the neck felt...

This didn't come as a surprise, because I already "knew" this, but I have never tested it with recordings. I've always hit my strings pretty hard and have pretty low gain, but sometimes I've tried picking softer with higher gain and when I do that, I think I get better string definition... But...

I have an older 1tb Seagate that i use for back ups that works just fine but being it's older it's a bit on the slow side. I've been looking at 2-3tb portables. Being that they are portable and usb powered, would that make them slower then a wired one? It'll be used for more backup but also it's...

What I'm noticing more and more now is that the main thing causing damage to my guitars is their cases. I always seem to catch the neck or end of the body on the metal edges. For example, I've had to put electrical tape on the headstock of my Jackson Rhoads because I keep dinging the tip...

Listening to the bass player dude's good band.

Since I'm keeping this guitar for the time being I thought I need to at least justify it by doing some recording with it :lol: so I re-tracked an unfinished song I've been kicking around for months (it's longer than this, but I just recorded up to the first solo) I quite dig the Hotrails...

This is so cool haha!!! Well, if you can read german :flex: Of course, as always when one makes interviews, there's ALWAYS going to be something that's been edited so it's completely wrong; the text suggests I was into punk and "then became a metalhead" when I heard Iron Maidens Brave New...

Found this cleaning out my favorites and thought it deserved a post in light of recent events. Lemmy Bass Repairs Great pictoral. This picture. So brutal. :immortal:

Hi, I just got a SSD for my PC as well as a new data hard-drive, so it's time to re-install wIndows (it's Windows 7 in my case). Currently I have Win7 and all my software installed on a HDD drive and I was wondering what's the best way to go about installing Windows onto the new SDD drive...

:lol:

Bit of a guilty pleasure, perhaps - its about as straightforward as hard rock get - but I like this rather a lot. Catchy as hell. :metal:
