These pedals don't seem to have a setting to do some low and hi cuts. Do they just sound good at any volume level without adjuments through monitors for practicing and pa speakers? I'm looking to get one of them. Maybe a used amplifier firebox for 99 dollars.
I lowered the pickups and it improved the sound. I usually keep the pickups close to the strings but by lowering this one, that thin sound and some mud was removed.
Besides John pettruci is there anyone else? Ever since I started playing metal I was advice to always have a gate on because of the noise produce by high gain amps but recently I started turning off the gate, and bring down the threshold on the noise gate quite low on some noisy amps, and also...
I've seen videos of players like pretucci sometimes having the reverb effect engage when showing some riffs and just recently I noticed kiko does it too.
sorry I guess I didn't explain my self. when we are using our studio monitors, they are trying to provide the same sound/info at the same time left and right, which to me, I guess I found out that its distracting ( I know weird), but when playing with an amp/cab is different, the sound its just...
TedEH, I haven't tried your advise but this is weird, I panned my guitar sims to the left speaker, which most of the time my head is facing a little to look at the fretboard and it helped bit. I can hear what I'm playing with better detail. it seems that listening to the speakers left and right...
I think its the interface and computer all together. I plugged my solid state amps to the outlets and no problem. It's a bummer that my amps sound better to me, like a blanket was removed. And the palm mutes sound chunky, can't get that with plugins.
I don't think a hate it, it's just needed more gain but did sounded different. I'll try a 57 first, if I don't like it I'll get a black winter and Duncan distortion to try them. but I'll need to learn how to solder first. So is the 57 hotter than the 81? some people say it a noisy pickup?
I did try an EMG 81 on one guitar but the output seemed low compared to other guitars with passives. Adding more gain and a boost worked. I noticed the same thing when i tried some guitars with emgs at a local store. But know that I remember, years I go I did played an ltd ec 401 with the 81 &...
Classic rock and metal. But for classic metal, I like to tune to Eb, it sounds better to me. For late 90s and early 2000s stuff, I like progressive metal, nu metal and metal core. I need to think about what tunning I'll keep this guitar in.
I like the feel of the neck, so comfortable to play but I don't like how it sounds, so thin sounding and no resonance. you can even hear or feel it when unplugged. Can upgrades help the guitar or just get another guitar with a floating bridge? I'm not looking for something expensive. I can get a...
I installed an emg 81 and I tried 3 guitars at a local store with emgs and find them to have less ouput than guitars with high output passive pickups. What work was using a boost and raise the gain on the amp. Or im doing something wrong?
