    "Kill Switch" Miasma

    Imaginitive, and definitely in the correct direction, but do you imagine I could engage anything of the kind with as minimal effort? Another matter to consider, is that the "kill switch" effect is especially potent when paired with a whammy pedal or wah; which would be virtually impossible for...

    "Kill Switch" Miasma

    I suspected that a mention, in this forum, of miasma would somehow be further related to death metal; but I hadn't been certain how.

    "Kill Switch" Miasma

    Well, to comply, and lend reverence to this particular audience (which will certainly never occur in my music): I was using the term in a rather abstract regard; Rather than to be interpreted merely as a death vapor, it is used to loosely refer to a deadly influence of the atmosphere. It was in...

    "Kill Switch" Miasma

    You can always use concentric pots to control tone or volume if you are not concerned with an traditional appearance; and I can certainly take that A-7 off of your hands.

    "Kill Switch" Miasma

    Clever, I doubt that would be any trouble for me. I think I will be purchasing a couple that look suited for the job and determine which is the more convenient for me.

    Obviously, what else are guitars for... n00b (only joking of course.) Always gratifying to impose some judicious lingual repertoire, eh? Why thank you; it all originates at the electromagnetic decay resting beneath the finger tips at any given moment(no, not in any unorthodox manner.) This...

    I truly apreciate it brother. Would you happen to have a product number or keyword?

    "Kill Switch" Miasma

    Through the course of my career I discovered the curious phenomena of utilizing a Gibson's pickup selector as a rhythmic device. Shortly after demonstrating for a friend I had been made aware that the likes of Jimmy Page and Tom Morello had utilized it thusly as well. My fascination only grew of...

    Returning to this thread: I have installed the Dimarzios into my Les Paul and have determined them well suited for my style, but I feel the Blaze Neck to be a bit devoid of character(but I have a solution that I will elaborate in moments). The resolution to my original problem disturbingly...

    Several Questions

    It is much apreciated, I was rather confused about the use of the term microphonic(as I have heard it in quite a few contexts). Believe it or not there are several sources claiming that plastic pickguards dampen one's tonality(by preventing the body wood to openly resonate) which is why, aside...

    Several Questions

    Respond to any independent question as you please. I've encountered quite a few statements I do not know to have a basis in fact, but seem reliable. First I wish to ask to what degree copper prevents microphonic hum(specifically in the case of pickguards). Do plastic pickguards truly dampen...

    Your Favorite Bassist

    Charles Mingus is among the more extraordinary upright voices. Tony Levin is a recent annex to my admired bassists. Additionally, as technically inclined as Les Claypool is, I do not feel him even remotely flashy. Admittedly, he does utilize advanced, eclectic technique in order to create...

    Danny Carey kicks ass.

    That is definitely a majority of my affinity to his playing: the Tabla. I adore middle eastern influences in music(From East Bay Ray to Bela Bartok) to such a degree that a majority of my melodic voice on the guitar is Oud inspired(a concept few collaborating musicians have been able to grasp).

    Bootzilla!!! - P Funk and James Brown(among numerous other projects) James Jameson - uncredited bassist for approximately 80% of Motown Stanley Clarke. Les Claypool - Primus etc.(the "PRIMUS SUCKS" slogan has been retired) David J (Haskins) - Bauhaus Noel Redding - The Jimi Hendrix Experience...

    NAMM roll call

    I am attending as well as the three other members of my band; it should mark the first complete union of the members as well. Should anyone be willing to offer recommendations for booths; I was personally hoping to browse 7-string products(if any?), order stage lighting effects for our jams, as...

    Its terribly amusing, but I'm afraid there is nothing to be gained in purchasing one. After all, for the the sake of achieving as much, you can simply super drive a solid state's transistors to their very limit, and leave nothing but treble. There has been an audio clip added to the original post.

    For the love of God w/ Orchestra

    I agree entirely, a poorly executed conceptual display. The merciless wank is undeniable. Steve Vai, no matter the amount that can be attributed to him(especially from the standpoint of a 7 string player), just possesses such little traction with my interest. I am afraid I simply cannot...

    I really ought to have said that prior.:wallbash: What is thought of the arrangement of the pickups I chose? Nothing has been said about the Blaze Neck in bridge position, or its combination with the Tone Zone 7.

    Thank you for the quick response.:banana: Alright, "miraculous" is a definite leap, I'd only meant to refer to the amount I could detect beyond the stock pickups, and its suitability for the sound I am trying to create. I will try to keep my speech versatile for everyone's sake. ...and yes...

    You've all been incredibly helpful, and this thread has grown remarkably thorough to the successive apprehension of the passage I now feel necessary. For the Les Paul, it looks as though I will have to waltz with Dimarzio's exchange to determine what it is that I want. In case the forum has...
