    I've got most of the parts kicking around to put together a beater RG, but I'm short a trem, and was wondering if I could get away with something cheap if I'm just going to have it permanently blocked? The body is routed for an Edge Pro, so suggestions of something cheap and easy to get would...

    Just wondering if any of you guys have had any experience lately with any of the FMIC stuff out of Mexico. In years past I have never had complaints with their MIM stuff, but I got a brand new 2018 EVH Wolfgang a couple of weeks ago and it had tons of issues. The neck was actually loose out of...

    I recently received my custom order from Warmoth with this nice surprise. The Floyd Rose route has a tear out, painted over and not mentioned with my order. I reached out to Warmoth and spoke with Spike and Jeff. Only solution was offered a 10 day return!!! I live in Australia. Guess it's my...

    That cover rules. Normally I don't dig modern bands trying to do a kitschy retro vibe, but F.K.U. is awesome. Don't think any new music has been released yet, but they do shit like this.

    How could THIS leave the factory like this? I just recieved this nut in the mail and it's somewhat arching on one edge! It's not much, but I saw it right away! I dont trust this at all! There's two options: 1. File it down (with risk of doing more damage) 2. Return it Floyd Rose should...

    First off, hope I am not starting a sh*!T storm, I am in the market for a new 8 string guitar and I am torn. I was thinking of getting an Ibanez RGIF8, but then I noticed that Kiesel has their own version with the Aries AM8. I started to do a little investigation and it appears that Kiesel has...

    Counterfeit Guitar Bust Yields 861 Gibson Fakes, Ends with Prison Sentence Fair enough trying to maintain some control over your trademark and copyright but shit, there would possibly be less proliferation of Chibsons if Gibsons gear were priced better and made better. The old thing of the best...

    I want to do something a little more in-depth and methodical than this at some point, but I'm kinda sick of making guitar videos for the moment, having just done 10 in 4 days. But this is still fairly useful, I think. This is one take, routed through all three options at the same time, so...

    I messaged the guy I sold this bad girl to, and he wasn't digging it, luckily he's a local friend and I bought her back for $75 less than I sold her for, unloaded. Found a set of dimarzio Titans for $146 new, shipped grabbed them, and voila. This is the only guitar I missed. Don't miss the...

    How Well Can You Hear Audio Quality? : The Record : NPR A coworker sent me this. On one hand, I went 2 for 6. On the other, I was listening on my computer on a set of $20 earbuds, and two of the ones I got wrong, I had rejected th 128kbps pretty quickly and chose the 320 over the .wav. I'll...

    Hey all, I have this guitar, which I got cheaply about 2 years ago and due to not liking the stock pickups, I got a Seymour Duncan Nazgul (which has not been installed) but I'm wondering if you lot think it would actually be worth it to do the full upgrade thing? (This would involve getting...

    Any recommendations on where to get one? Primarily looking at either bullets (the higher caliber the better) or Snakeskin. These look ok, but the tacky ass web design is not terribly encouraging. HellsBelts
