    Intonation being off by 25 cents, what does this mean?

    By that point you then have to start looking at the possibility of a bad nut, poor neck angle or into really bad possibilities like poorly installed bridge. You really need more info, like if its completely out of intonation travel and still not correct, is it on certain strings or across the...

    Your Albums of 2022 (So Far)

    Oh What The Future Holds - Fit For An Autopsy Without question the best album I've heard in a very, very long time. FFAA in general are absolutely brilliant.

    What guitar pick do you use?

    Dunlop Tortex .88mm for 30 years but just started using EB Everlast 1.0mm and they seem pretty nice, good grip on them. I used to do the razor blade scoring thing with the Tortex when I was live playing for better sweat grip.

    Are You Influenced by Influencers?

    I view social media influencers in general as talentless, free-loading, self aggrandizing, turds looking to get a free ride through life. Sadly a lot of them achieve it too as this is how modern society has formed and enabled them. Everything about the "Influencer" concept is vomit inducing to...

    Drop A on standard scale

    I used drop A on my old 25.5" RG7620 with no issues with a 9-46 set + 0.60 for the 7th. More recently I was tunning to drop G on a 25.4", again with zero issue BUT I did have to remove the saddle screw spring to get enough rearward travel for intonation. The "proper" thing to do was to get the...

    PSA - Reverb charging sales tax twice on international sales

    Are you sure its not import duty that was also applied? If it is indeed a double charge for HST you should be able to provide proof to the Importer/Shipping company to show you paid tax. It sounds like its not Reverb that charged twice, but you got charged by Reverb at time of sale (which is...

    Pickup Choices for Thickening the Sound of a Floyd Rose-Equipped Guitar

    I recommend the Super Distortion too, very thick sounding pickup. If you’re not adverse to modifying the mounting legs (or maybe they have triangle tabs) then my next suggestion is BKP Nailbombs, they sound killer on my Floyd equipped guitar, which also has a brass trem block as someone else...

    Difficulty or struggles of Song Writing

    Do you enjoy the songs you write as they naturally form? If so then is a bridge/breakdown necessary? Be careful in writing your songs to make OTHER people happy, its fine if you're intentionally writing for the radio-friendly-unit shifter world but if these are songs you write for yourself then...

    Quad Cortex or Fractal FM3?

    Well then I stand corrected, though I'm sure my invite said it had an expiry. Not that I even paused for thought. Seriously though, get it in the basket!!

    Quad Cortex or Fractal FM3?

    Uh oh, I think you’ll find that invite is expired now. I think there was a limit of a couple of weeks 😬

    Quad Cortex or Fractal FM3?

    Ahh yes, I never thought about the stocking issue. Assuming he's not North American market then it will be a bit of a wait and I wouldn't recommend used market for FM3/FC6 route because the scalpers are on high-grade crack when it come to Fractal gear.

    Quad Cortex or Fractal FM3?

    Fractal 100% but I would recommend the FM9, more processing power and switches. The FM3/FC6 combo is a good choice too but then you have 2 separate units to deal with rather than all in one with the FM9.

    NGD: Aviator Predator 7

    Just curious, what issues did you have and what was the production year?

    NGD - Legator N8FP - My Disappointment is immeasurable -_-

    Unless you see a pic of the ACTUAL guitar you're buying and I mean the exact serialized one, then the colour should be considered a general representation at best, especially in the lower end scale of products.

    NGD: Aviator Predator 7

    That looks sweet, I have a build in process with them and if that one turns out as hoped, I already have a very similar Predator 7 in mind too. Enjoy the NGD!

    The only Jackson that has made me nut

    I don't mind that at all. Is it a production model coming out or a $30k custom?

    Taking your floating bridge off without removing the strings

    A great thing to do with Floyds or floating trems in general is put some masking tape on the floor of the trem cavity, below the claw. Then draw a line on the tape using the straight edge of the claw as the guide. Then you can easily wind out the screws to relieve spring tension (slowly!) and do...

    The Deftones are breaking my heart...

    Yep, I'm baked right now listening to Ohms. For fuck sake Steph!

    The Deftones are breaking my heart...

    No, I'm pretty sure I'd know if I was starting to deny well known facts.
