    Do you use the tone knob on your guitar?

    Nah. I actually don't like the volume either. I would greatly prefer an on/ off switch. Ah... that's hard rock and metal for ya

    Tube amps are dying luxury.... Do you agree?

    They could be fun if you don't mind swapping out tubes and have them maintained by annoying techs. I've owned three. An old Marshall which sounded cool but never quite had the gain I needed. An Ampeg which was always in the shop. And a 6505 which I owned for less than a year and had to sell. Now...

    "Amp in the room" tone doesn't matter. Or does it?

    I think you make good points. I've also seen wood doesn't matter. To me, I guess being the neanderthal I am, it all matters. I do all my playing through headphones now. Had to get used to a bit of latency. Who knows? I think most of that stuff is click bait. You take a premise with which most...

    Slayer's Jeff Hanneman played an Ibanez RG550 guitar during the 1990s. Metallica's Kirk Hammett played an Ibanez Flying V guitar on the band's "Damage, Inc." tour in 1986. Anthrax's Scott Ian played an Ibanez RG Series guitar during the 1990s. Megadeth's Marty Friedman played Ibanez guitars...

    New Mesa Boogie Mark amp?

    Actually I think I looked this up here in the US and it was like 3700. Which honestly those little combos sounds amazing. I think if a person had the money to make sure they kept it for the rest of their lives it would be a good investment. Although service for those amps can be a little...

    I've had a Universe, the RG version, and another RG and I could never get the proper palm muted sound out of them. Nor split harmonics. I always thought it was the wood. I put EMGs in the last one I owned but it was the same.
