So I've been kicking around the idea of adding # 14 to the electric guitar herd in my music room. Pulled the trigger on a Jackson Soloist SLX series in Cherry Sunburst. This model has the EMG hz pickups in the HH configuration. Was leaning hard towards metallic red but the EMG pickups vs. the...

I know, I'm late to the party. :lol: But there's a seller on eBay who has new ones ridiculously cheap, and I couldn't pass it up. Anyway, to all the 11R owners/past owners: Are there any tips/tricks or anything in particular I should know about the unit? I'm all ears! Thanks fellers :metal:

As I was checking out videos of hi-gain pedals, I ran across some reviews of the new Randall RGOD pedal....mind you, I just got a Bogner Ecstasy Red and love it to death, but I need another pedal for over-the-top modern-molten gain and this is the ticket.....I've already made room for it on my...

...and I say "almost," because as soon as I started making the order I almost had a fucking anxiety attack from the potential options. :lol: I know I'm getting an Evo7 for the bridge, and I'm thinking about an AN7 for the neck, or maybe something like an Ionizer or Illuminator. The thing is, I...

Heyo, I've been looking into a custom Carvin for a couple months now, but haven't quite pulled the trigger. I really dig a few of their models, but haven't gotten a chance to actually jam on one. I did get a chance to mess around with one of Neil Zaza's custom Spider-Man models for a minute...

PreSonus Eris 8s :woohoo: Anybody use these?

A Xbox 360 bundle from xbox.com/microsoft.com store for $240 total. That's with next day shipping and tax plus got Forza Horizon for $15 also. I needed a new xbox anyways. :lol:

Since I have the frilly Holdsworth model, this time, I wanted to get something that was a simple, old school shredder. Radiation Green Metallic Natural Body Binding Maple fretboard Black hardware Pearloid buttons Painted Satin Neck SS Jumbo frets Passive electronics Floyd Rose & locking nut...

So I just spec'ed out and ordered a Carvin 8. Fairly classy and straight forward: White headstock and body Alder body Maple neck Flamed maple fretboard Gold hardware Gold logo No inlays I'm pretty stoaked. Right now the build time is 5 to 8 weeks. I dont think anyone on this site has one yet...

Super Fatboy 2x12 w/ V30's. Red tolex, black grill cloth, black piping. Secks.

I knew it!

And I was underwhelmed. I barely cracked a sweat. I will say, it did start off really slow and build, and had a decent flavor, but it was not nearly as hot as I thought it was going to be.

So, my inauguration into this fine forum began with questions over an RGD I'd been eyeing - http://www.metalguitarist.org/forum/guitar-instrument-discussion/43373-ibanez-rgd-question.html I decided to pass on that since my gut was telling me (and some of you as well) to avoid it. So... after...

Surprise, not a guitar. getting a fucking violin bitches because i cant listen to the game of thrones intro song anymore without playing along with it.

So after messing around trying to decided exactly what I wanted on a full custom I opted for a very expensive try before I buy. My girl friend even recommended it as I don't buy another guitar for a long time. I have my wood choices and very similar specs to what I want and I really like the...

I typically use the DR DDT for my drop tuned stuff, but I have been hearing good things about Everly X-rockers, so I ordered 5 sets of those along with my standard order. Everly 9113 X Rockers Lo Tune Drop C. Anyone every used them before?
