    NGD : 2019 Ibanez Prestige FR6UCS

    That is SLEEK. Love the UCS models, been having severe GAS for the RGD lately and those two make quite the pair. HNGD!

    Why don't we start supporting each other's work...

    Glad to see this thread's still going :) I'm planning to go through and check out everything new in the next few days! Also wanted to update since the album I was previewing released yesterday. Spotify/Apple/Bandcamp links are in my sig, and I'll be posting a couple playthrough videos in the...

    Hardest solo?

    Hardest one I've been able to do is probably Under A Glass Moon. Used to be able to play it pretty close a couple years back, but I've had a lot less time to keep my chops up since then. These days? I can still play Tornado of Souls and The River Dragon Has Come probably 80-85% correctly...

    Why don't we start supporting each other's work...

    For what it's worth, I just make music for fun -- and even with no ambitions of "making it", I know how much it means to me to have someone REALLY listen. This thread was a really good reminder that I can make someone's day by doing that for them, so it's my privilege to be able to do that! Very...

    Why don't we start supporting each other's work...

    Finally got a chance to sit down and give this thread a proper listen! I can't quote/reply to this many people unfortunately but I'll tag folks as I go. @Thaeon I listened to the first couple tracks off your live set here, and I'm really enjoying it. I'm weirdly pretty strongly influenced by...

    New Haken album "Virus" out 5th June

    I was looking for the right way to describe this and I think you nailed it. Most of the Haken I've listened to has been off Vector, and compared to that I can definitely see the ToT vibe.

    You Could Have Any Music Memorabilia

    Yep, came to say this. There was a huge part of my guitar-playing life when I wanted to be Het when I grew up. ... still do, sometimes :lol:

    NGD: Kiesel Aries

    It's been maybe 6 years since my last guitar purchase, and in celebration of graduating university in a few months, I've been in the market for a nice 6-string. I found the Prestige neck profile a little too thin as I have fairly large hands, so I was looking at Charvel and ESP, but I couldn't...

    Your Top Albums - list 'em

    Let's give this a try - I'll keep myself to 10 because I want to write a bit about them too. Cloudkicker - Beacons. Weirdly, I don't listen to that much Cloudkicker otherwise, but I really like this album as a whole because of its cohesion and the fact that it really seems to tell a story. I...

    Best IRs for helix

    Throwing in a +1 for this. Haven't tried with the Helix specifically, but I picked up HHC2 recently for Axe FX use and the Zilla with Creambacks sounds unbelievably good.

    Charvel 2020

    I’ve been eyeing the Pro-Mods with the Gotoh 510 (tried one the other day and the neck fit my hand like a glove) and the Tele-style one is exactly what my wallet didn’t need :wallbash: so classy.

    Sylosis are back with a new Single + album coming in 2020

    Really glad to see them back, can’t wait for the full album. These two tracks are seriously good.

    NGD Schecter Nick Johnston USA (Again)

    Good lord, that neck is stunning. Really complements the body finish. Curious how it feels compared to a typical maple neck. HNGD!
