    What counts as copying another bands style?

    Cheers! I started to write songs for my one-man-band project. I want it to sound like, or at least be similar to my all time favorite album. The question is: which counts as copying another bands style, sound, riffs? I mean if you picked up the guitar because of Dimebag of Jeff Loomis, and...

    Stupidest way you have damaged your instrument?

    What tips can you give to your fellow guitarist, what NOT to do to prevent accidents? :nono: Like... Zipping the soft guitarcase on the BOTTOM, and carrying on the back... zip opened... guitar slammed on the concrete... Just the bottom strapbutton got a little recessed :lol:

    guitar > bass head > guitar cab?

    It was checked by a friend and he said he cleaned the pots, there's something else wrong with them.. It would be cool to give it a full service, but no one does that in my area. Should I send it back to Peavey? 😅

    guitar > bass head > guitar cab?

    Peavey XXL solid state I love it, it has cool features, but all the knobs are cracking, sometimes it does weird things, and the clean chanel has a minimal distortion all the time.

    guitar > bass head > guitar cab?

    Just an idea... I mainly use pedals for my distorted tone. I thought if my SS amp head dies, I could probably by any other SS head, since their distorted tone doesn't matter, and hopefully their clear chanel doesn't have much EQ coloration. Here comes the idea. If I know it right, bass heads...

    Pete Sandoval's style?

    Morbid Angel is my favorite band and I like Pete's style, I don't have much clue about drumming, but would like to prgram drums that sounds like him. Can you give me some tips which are his "signiture" chops, blasts, fills, what ever? Or can name any other drummer that plays similar to him?

    Coolest bald/short haired headbanger?

    Just for a fun topic... Windmilling, headbanging is a huge show element for me, it's much cooler when the guys go crazy instead of just standing there. Do you have anyone in mind who is bald or short haired, but doesn't like a goof while noding his head on stage, has a cool stage present?

    Paint mod on poplar top Ibanez?

    Hi there! I love poplar burl tops with trans black finish, and I love the shape of the Ibanez S series, so I thought I would hunt down an Ibanez S7721PB IF it can be refinished that way. Ibanez S7721PB: How should it look after: What are your thoughts, it's possible to refinish it that...

    String noise?

    Well I didn't checked. I think it's not fret buzz because I don't hear that the strings hit the frets when I play it unpluged.

    String noise?

    Hi everyone! I just want the get some advice, how to get rid of the string noise from my guitar? I mean, even if a jam along a song with distortion, I still hear a metallic noise often, like when you put new strings on your guitar, which is not true now. It's not fret buzz, It's like I'm not...

    Anyone prefers standing NOT in front of the cab?

    I don't meant literally that it hurts my ears. Probably I can't dial it in probably. As I mentioned it, if I roll back the highs, then it gets muddy. Maybe it's a certen frequancy that I don't like and I can get rid of it. Or maybe I just prefer the hear a more ambient sound from the room...

    Anyone prefers standing NOT in front of the cab?

    I just noticed that I like more standing in an angle (~90°) to the cab, and not in front. There are some highs that hurts my ear, but if I turn them down on the EQ I lose the presence. I've got a 4x12 cab, but maybe, for this reasen, a 2x12 would be better for me, since the speakers would my...
