    I was (and still am) a huge Pestilence fan back in the day. Got Malleus the first week it was out, and by the time Spheres hit they were one of my all-time favorite metal bands. I still remember the night this song hit Headbangers Ball and instantly thought "WTF, the guitars sound awful!" but...
  2. Music: Recording Studio
    I really hate "writing" music. Not writing music, I love that, "writing" music. Not "writing" as in creating something, actually writing it down in a computer program like Sibellius or with pen and paper. On stuff that is just guitar and bass it's no big deal. I just remember how to play it...

    ...I hear a song on the radio and the chord progression is just too familiar. Case in point: Compared to this song, skip to 14:47: Thinking positively, it's fun to see what different songwriters can do with similar chord progressions. I dig the production on the pop song, but TCoT is just...

    I'm a huge fan of Adam Neely and his absolutely fantastic content, but I think this video is a really good look at the way a lot of people react to music. When they are talking about most people hating music that is actually very close to what they love rather than a polar opposite, I think the...

    I hate it. It's stupid, and I hate it. Because this is awesome: https://www.ebay.com/itm/ESP-Guitars-E-II-M-I-THRU-NT-Neck-Thru-Electric-Guitar-w-Case-Black-Satin/273620458395?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 And if it said ESP on the headstock, I'd buy it. I know...

    This actually went live a week ago, but its taken me a while to actually get around to sharing it on here. Enjoy (or dont, you wont hurt my feelings)
  7. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    So this thing is like everything you guys hate. It's headless, has a burl top, it's a Legator. Probably even more stuff. Yet despite the bad reputation this guitar is fucking stellar. Buckeye top, mahogany body, wenge/maple neck, SS frets, ebony board, etc. It came setup perfectly and it plays...

    There's a few cool ones in here, and a few that are just terrible (Leo playing some garbage 8-string chug nonsense is the worst, which is a shame because it would be cool to hear a modern ERG in that setup in actually capable hands). A lot of them default to EVH, ACDC or Hendrix style stuff, but...
  9. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    I hate no headstock, truly do, it just never looks right, and in my opinion, stupid and pretentious, but that's just me, and I know plenty people like them. Anyway, a frind sent me a link to a site, and I seem to have found guitars, without headstock, that I don't hate ust by looking at them. I...
  10. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    So I just bought a nice Jackson (25.5 scale lenght) guitar, and when buying strings, I decided to go for 10 gauge instead of the usual 9's. BIG MISTAKE! I tried 10's once before on a strat, but apparently I forgot how much I hated them... Which is weird because I am fine with the Ernie ball...
  11. Member Introductions
    I came here from another site as a fan of black guitars with Floyds because I thought it'd be a pretty good repository of metal guitar related knowledge. Since registering and reading some of the bigger threads on here, I've refinished my Ibanez RG in matte neon green and am desperate for a...
  12. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    Seriously. I followed three different diagrams (all supposed to be the same end result) to rewire this fucking '91 S470, and it's all garbage. Can't get the bridge to make sound. Goddamnit I've been in there three times tonight :lol: I want to re-light another bucket full of 10 pounds of...

    I did a cover of Periphery's new groove. It's djent. I know most people here hate djent, but here it is. Dont worry, im also working on holywars.
  14. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    I'm a fucking PROPHET! Not only did some of you guys doubt that the shelf was too high, you said "it needs to be assembled before you know" but no, my PROPHECY was fucking true! Warmoth did a shit job with lowering the fucking nut shelves! It was left with stupid wood stuff and other shit! One...

    Wanna know why? When I bitch about losing a solo contest, you guys told me to shut the fuck and suck it up. That is what I needed to hear. Made me practice thrash and I found out how bad my right hand sucks. Made me see that metallica's newer stuff really does suck because they havent really...

    This is damn sexy. Simplistic, a bit O' spice by way of the zebrawood fretboard, but otherwise understated. Custom Shop DC7X Seven-String Extended Scale Guitar Serial Number 70115 | CarvinGuitars.com Also, why are Carvin/Kiesels getting so godawful heavy lately? this one's not bad @ 8lbs...
