    In a case or on a stand? How o you keep your prized custom or priciest guitar

    Well, it's rather easy when 1 guitar is all you have - a stand is an obvious choice for me. I have it right next to my desk, plugged into an interface prety much all the time.

    Anyone here into Prog?

    My dad is a massive prog fan, so I'm one as well - I'm told I wasn't easy to be put to sleep as a child and one of the things that worked was pink floyd blasting from the speakers next to me. King Crimson is a no-brainer in discussions like this one, though it's a complex topic, as it greatly...

    Fretboard radius, do you care?

    20" is way too round, I prefer my fretboards concave. In all seriousness though, I also find the neck profile to be a more important factor in terms of comfort. Having said that, I prefer something in the middle when it comes to radii - I'm not overly fond of vintage fenders, but I also found...

    NGD: Arístides H/08R Trem

    They all look sick! Which of them do you find to be the comfiest in terms of design choices?

    The Duncan JB and it's clones

    Well, I kinda don't know what to think anymore. I've got a 1999 Framus with a stock JB in the bridge; is there any point to trying some of these different versions out? I mean - is there a conceivable difference that can't be simply achieved by turning some knobs down the chain? For what it's...

    Nylon Strings.

    I've played nylons for around 7 years before picking up an electric, so I know your pain quite well. The only trick I found was... patience. Tune the guitar as often as possible (at least for the first few days), tuning it slightly sharp doesn't hurt either. The importance of stretching strings...

    Some pictures of my refinished Jackson Fusion HH

    Geat job man, it turned out great. Not sure about the white knobs, but it looks sweet all the same!

    Nonsensical Guitar Pro/Tuxguitar songs for fun

    I get strong Zappa vibes from some of these. Neat!

    Neural DSP plugins for practise?

    Dang. I sport a rather low-end interface, UMC204HD by Behringer (which I find to very quite nice BTW). That goes into a 2012 iMac (intel i5 2.7 GHz, RAM recently upped to 16 GB), so nothing too fancy. Latency is a non-issue, as it's around 2.9 ms for me, standalone or via DAW (Logic). I've...

    Budget Friendly Modelers?

    With HX Effects you get the effects, no amp/cab sims.

    Rick Toone Stealth | Fabio Mittino

    That "Dance of Litha" tone you've got going on reminds me a lot of King Crimson's ConstruKction of Light album. An interesting guitar, that's for sure.

    How many guitars to cover these tunings?

    Just get a Variax, the Shuriken model looks quite saucy.

    What game are you playing?

    I've been completely addicted to Dead Cells for a few months now. It's so smooooth.

    Studio Headphones 2021

    There's always Audio-Technica and their trusty ATH-M50X, I've got a pair and they're quite nice.

    Why must these be so stupidly expensive?
