The problem from what i have seen, is that there is very little accountability for these people. You may get banned banned for a couple of games and recieve a minor fine but you'll still likely be playing baseball. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/other_sports/us_sport/4437315.stm How is...
I had exactly the same issue with my JS. You should be fine just yanking them out, just watch the finish on the guitar (my JS is a beater so i wasn't concerned either way). I would definitely recommend the locking studs. I'm desperate to get them in my guitars, just a ball ache getting them here...
I'm not a fan of jacksons at all and i generally hate V's, but that is a stunning guitar. Everything on it just looks so right. Looks terribly expensive though.
You haven't been to Tokyo in the summer have you? Believe me it is unbearably hot and humid, you sweat in places you simply wouldn't believe. And anyway, you're not selling selling you're undies to some desperate ooyaji.
Here in Japan where attitudes to sex are very different to back home (the UK), it is pretty routine for (the hot) High School girls to sleep with older guys (often for money or 'brand' goods: louis vuitton, channel etc). You very rarely hear of anyone getting done for it. (Though recently a...
Voted Gilbert (toss up between him and Ron Thal. love them both) mainly because i think he's the most tasteful player on the list and he knows how to rock AND have a laugh at the same time. I like a lot of those players, but can't stomach 'em for long periods. I've seen Shawn Lane mentioned a...
Just looking at a 7620 M yahoo auctions priced at around $500. Looks swet and i've heard good things about it. My question is: what is the bridge PUP on this like? It has a Paf 7 in the neck position but a stock in the bridge. Also is this a reasonable price? Theres a 1570 on there too...
Some cool tunes being mentioned. For me: Morbid Angels - "Ancient ones" Kotaro Oshio - Everything that guy does is simply awesome. Steve Vai - "The audience is listening" Slayer - "Angel of Death" Metallica - 1st 4 albums. Pantera - Everything Opeth - Too many to choose from I...
Not japanese. Are you Flobanez from Jemsite by any chance? if so i believe we have briefly discussed this. I live in Machida, which i think is a pretty cool place. Aint Shinjuku but it does OK. Close to all of those cool guitar stores ya lucky bugger. Shinjuku is definitely one of my...
Very helpful, cheers. I know the JC you're talking about, i believe it's an Ikebe-Gakki only edition. It's also nearly 100,000 yen more than the standard JC 7. It is beautiful though. If i could get a deal on it I'd be on it in an instant. As for the pick-ups, i can always swap 'em later...
I'll tell you what I find to be the most irritating thing about guitar forums; It's the sycophancy on display. Every other post is "stevie/joe/john/greg etc... we love you, even your farts smell sweet to me. :nuts: I can't even go near the Vai forum anymore. I usually assume these people...
I'D have no problems taking that MC off your hands. I'll swap ya a j-custom! Seriously though (I'll take the MC, seriously), cheers for the advice. I'm still not sure which i'm gonna get. The only other concern i have that may sway me in favour of the UV would be the fretwire itself. The...
Ok i'm taking the plunge and buying me a 7 string this summer. There are really only 2 that i am considering. I'm an Ibanez player and i'm gonna stick with Ibanez for the 7 to make the transition as painless as possible There are really only 2 that i am considering. The choice is between...
Well, first off a confession: i DON'T own a 7 string... hang on, hold your horses...yet. I'm here primarily coz i am buying one shortly and need some advice on what to get. I usually kick about on jemsite but figured where better to come for advice on 7's. Already seen some familiar...
