    How much should I pay for a second hand RG550?

    Last year I bought a 2019 RG550 Genesis in DY for 700 CAD (480 euro) and it was in excellent condition, all original. I think that was below market rate though.

    Blackstar Amps - want to buy one

    My vote is for the 5150 Iconic. But more importantly, you're asking for a tube amp recommendation, but it sounds like what you want is to record silently. So you want both in one? The amps you listed are essentially all doing preamp out for recording, plus an IR. I think that's why...

    5153 EL34 or Splawn QR? Or something else?

    Ok, big 🤦‍♂️ on my part, lol. I completely misread your comment. I'll see myself out...

    5153 EL34 or Splawn QR? Or something else?

    Curious about REVV, what lineage of bands is it based on, do you know? Like if you were to create broad categories of amps, most amp would fall in one category or another, where would you place the REVV G?

    You didn't provide any numbers. How dry is your basement? Below 40%? What percentage do you want it at?

    The Les Paul thread

    Wow! I've never seen this finish before. Paired with black hardware and it's just absolutely stunning.

    Nowadays high gain is affordable!!!

    Some interfaces have RCA out, which would work with a lot of computer speakers.

    Helix 3.70 out now

    You really cannot use a HX Stomp XL? and if not, are you really sure you need the extra processing and it's not simply a "nice to have"? I get it, it's not wrong to want to full power device without a pedal, especially since other manufacturers offer that form factor. But given what we have...

    No. They don't. You can get away with just headphones. You can also use crappy computer speakers if it's all you have.

    Helix 3.70 out now

    But the user experience of building patches in Native is so so bad. A hardware device + HX Edit is much better. In case someone doesn't know, you can't drag-n-drop, copy/paste and quick save on Helix Native. All actions that are crucial (IMO) to a fast workflow of building presets. Helix...

    Nowadays high gain is affordable!!!

    EVH 5150 Iconic 15w or 40w Truly awesome amps that sound so amazingly good at low volumes, have presence and resonance controls and more gain that you'll ever probably need. How I wish these existed when I was a teen starting out. The inflation adjusted price would be like $500 CAD in early 2000s.

    Return to work push?

    I do really struggle with this grey area personally. Do people feel like if you're meeting expectations, then it's kinda whatever? I never feel quite comfortable noodling on the guitar even though I know I'm meeting (or exceeding) expectations. I struggle with this dilemma.

    NGD: 1999 Ibanez RG7620

    Yes please!! Edit: just today I contacted a local company that refinishes guitars. I want to get my RG752 refinished. Turns out the pricing is a lot more reasonable than I thought.

    NGD: 1999 Ibanez RG7620

    Yeah, I have an RG752 that has a limba wood top. It's cool, looks better in person than in pictures. But if I could have it in Galaxy Black instead I 100% would prefer that. It reminds me of the RG2228, I think if it only came in the Nebula Green Burst with the anaemic looking natural back, it...

    NGD: 1999 Ibanez RG7620

    That's right. Except typically the numbering is stated in the reverse order that you posted (position 1 bridge HB, etc...). And the split coil position is both inner coils.

    NGD: 1999 Ibanez RG7620

    The finish is a big part of it for me. Nice classic Ibanez vibes with the RG7621, the current RG752 are gross to me.

    Agreed, if they still sold them now with the exact same specs I'd buy it over any of the current offerings. Such a workhorse guitar.
