    Modify my floating trem~~ with PIEZOs!!

    First thing you need to do is build a CNC machine. $2500 for my micro mill. This is an entry level machine, but is more than enough for what I do. Hardly worth it for someone who just wants to mod their guitars. I'd be glad to help you out. PM me if you are interested. Thanx, shotgunn

    I don't normally talk like this but...

    Careful, careful... One of our very own had to let this go due to some unfortunate circumstances. I should let you know that this was his backup unit and he still has an Axe FX as well as some other wicked awesome gear. I'll post some pics on a bit. I still have to consummate this...

    I propose a ROTM (Y)(E)... (picstory ensues...)

    I know man, it sounds like the R2 mode of the MKIII to be honest. Mt MKIIC+ has wicked amounts of gain. As for the X3, it is a real life saver. I plug my magnetics into input 1 and my piezos into input 2. I have totally separate signal chains for each. I have even put my G-Force in the FX...

    I propose a ROTM (Y)(E)... (picstory ensues...)

    Well, I finally got around to getting 'rig' all together. Long story short I had one gig with it and I nearly destroyed my back. I have since torn it all apart and purchased the Line 6 Pod X3 Pro. I have been enticed with the Line 6 stuff for the last 10 years or so and I finally pulled the...

    33 breath controller

    The 33 is just a controller. No audio passes through it at all. It generates MIDI data based on your breath as well as the X - Y axes. This MIDI data can be assigned to control virtually any parameter your audio processor has to offer. I believe that Frederik uses the Nord Micro Lead... Or...

    33 breath controller

    Hey guys, I just caught wind of the amazing 33. I am currently devoting much time into prototyping one of my own with intent to sell to anyone who is interested. I have to do some more research including making sure I cannot be taken to court for doing such a thing. I am going to guess that...

    Heavy Metal Soap Opera (The Mike Portnoy vs. Dream Theater Saga)

    Labrie has done a fine job taking care of himself. You must consider that his instrument is IN is body. One that simply will not last forever. The other 4 guys can tune up/replace their instruments, not a vocalist. Their will always be a decline in performance. James' voice has aged quite...

    OFR Piezo mod featuring GraphTech FR saddles...

    Yeah, I'll try to do that later once I am at my own computer. Basically it comes out directly beneath the piezo insert. PM me if you wish to place an order... I am an authorized GT dealer. Thanx, shotgunn

    I've been meaning to say...

    I kind of dug 'The Best of Times' It's about Mike's dad passing away so in that respect I think it accurately portrays the sense of nostalgia. BTW I like how Petrucci comes in :shred: in a very pleasant mode. At first I thought Fortress was lame, then it grew on me. Tuscany, waaaaaay...

    Octavarium is gonna BLOW YOUR MIND!!!!!! (the song too, but I meant the entire album) I personally enjoy Octavarium (the song) even more so than A Change of Seasons. TOT, was awesome, VERY awesome, sooooo frickin' heavy all the way through. Mt. Pt. 2 is without a doubt their best work...

    I thought SC sucked. I really enjoy BCSL. My kids love it too. They say, "Dad put on the DUNT DUNT music!!!" Then they smash their heads into the backs of their car seats. LOL!!! shotgunn

    I've been meaning to say...

    I picked the new DT album last september. Two things stick out to me. 1. There isn't even one single face melting jaw dropping part from Jordan Rudess. I mean he played some fast stuff, but nothing at all blew my mind. 2. Mr John Petrucci somehow managed to do the impossible... It...

    I agree. Very obscure, it is totally impossible play comfortably.

    OFR Piezo mod featuring GraphTech FR saddles...

    I finally got around to milling the slots for the wires in this black OFR. The process went very smooth with no errors. The result is an Original Floyd Rose trem with GraphTech ghost saddles. This is truly the best of both worlds since you may now have the hardened steel base plate but have...

    The official Ibanez ZR Piezo Mod...

    Besides that fact that it never entered my mind as a legitimate possibility... I went this route because the trem was useless due to the amount I had to lower it in effort to compensate for the added string height. Shimming the neck pocket is only an viable option when it is very slight, IMO...
