    One More Word (No Selena Gomez content this time)

    I created this thread to contain my band spam as much as possible and also to please the one or two fans we have on this board. Today we released the first single from our upcoming album. The song is called "Trapped"* and you can see the video here: Or listen to it on Spotify (or any other...

    MIDI Pickups?

    I recently had the idea of installing a MIDI pickup in one of my guitars primarily for tracking stuff in the studio. Thing is, I know absolutely nothing about MIDI pickups. What are my options for an aftermarket installation that requires no drilling or screwing stuff into my guitar and offers...

    A Perfect Circle - Eat The Elephant

    I know I am REALLY late to the party but I wasn't aware they released a new album until my co-worker told me a couple of days ago. I'm pretty sure there are people here who like A Perfect Circle so what's your verdict? So far I've only heard about 50% of the album and I'm a bit torn. Thirteenth...

    Ibanez 2019 New Stuff

    I'm actually surprised Mathias didn't open this thread but well. Winter NAMM is coming and it's about time we start speculating, look at new stuff and cringe over black guitars with brown fretboards. First new model is online on the homepage: FRIX6FDQM (Iron Label) Looks kinda neat but after...

    Rosen Digital/Lancaster Audio - Scam or crappy support?

    Sooo, about a week ago I purchased some IRs from Rosen Digital via PayPal. When I tried to download them, I got this error message: "Oh well, no biggie" I thought. I'd just contact their customer support and let them know their page is acting funny and they'll fix it immediately. I had a...

    PU improvement help

    Disclaimer: Please forgive the inflationary use of onomatopoeia but I feel this helps me in describing the problem. So I got two Ibbies with Dimarzio Titans in them. One has a trem, the other one is a hard tail. The one with the trem sounds perfectly fine with nice twangy chuggs and sweet...

    Sooo... Revv G3 vs Friedman BE-OD?

    I tried to find proper reviews of both but most of the time the reviewer just plays some dadrock and we all know, the cool kids want chuggz and br00tz. Has anyone had the chance to try them against each other? I'm looking for something similar to the 5153 red channel. Not too fuzzy, nice mids...

    Ormsby GTR run 9

    Most of you have probably seen it already but Ormsby is doing another GTR run. I'm particularly interested in the Goliath run, even though reviews of the last run were quite mixed. My dealer quotet me at 1800€ (~$2100) for a Goliath 7, which way too much for what it is in my opinion. Is there a...

    NBD - Marcus Miller V7 Vintage

    Whaddup! I needed a bass for home recording. I used to have my bass player's backup at home but he insits on using colored Elixir strings (which sound horrible btw.) so I threw some cash at Ebay to get my own. Lo and behold, my potato phone manages to crap out another low quality photo. (I...

    This is not another metal cover, xtreme slow guitar, low skill

    I'm kidding but I found that thread very entertaining. We decided to do a cover of Selena Gomez' "Wolves" as an announcement for our new EP coming later this year. Again we did most of the pre-production, final mixing and mastering was done by a new guy so we didn't know what to expect but...

    Ibanez fixed bridge replacement

    I hope this is the right sub forum but technically this is about modifications sooo... I'm looking to replace the bridge on my fixed bridge Ibanez (Gibraltar Standard II bridge) but I want the saddles to have a different color than the base plate. So far, no shop would allow for mix & match, so...

    NGD: Ibanez content (duh)

    So after the poll a couple of weeks ago I was actually settled on a guitar already, when something weird happened. I had one eye always firmly locked on the current S series prestige, in particular the S6521Q, but I felt it was way too expensive for what it was. Lucky for me, prices got dropped...

    That one feature every guitar needs?

    So as I'm in the market for a new guitar, I checked out loads and loads of them, made lists, compared specs etc. but there is one thing all guitars I seriously consider have in common and surprisingly it's the body binding. All guitars I like have a body binding of some sort. Most guitars I ever...

    Ibanez vs well.. Ibanez

    So, I need a relatively cheap and reliable guitar for live and managed to narrow it down to the Ibanez RG 652AHMFX and the RGR 652AHBF. Possible mods for the RG652AHMFX: - Gold bridge + gold tuners - Maybe white or zebra pickups Possible mods for the RGR652AHBF: - Dying the fretboard black...

    NPD: DiMarzio Titans (with a tweest!)

    As I promised, here is my honeymoon rose-tinted immediate review of my new Titans. But before we start, you gotta check out these sick fellas! I didn't like any of the default colors so I ordered my own. In case you can't see it: They are matte white with gold polepieces. Actually I expected...

    POD HD500 issues

    Hey there, I recently acquired a POD HD500 for my EVH LBX, to play around with the 4 cable method. I hooked everything up and it's working as intended; so far so good. The only thing that doesn't work is using an internal amp on the POD through the power amp of the EVH as an additional clean...

    So, how do you call this piece of equipment..?

    Guys, I'm looking for some certain gear. I found some under the name of MIDI switcher/switcher/looper but there doesn't seem to be an industrial standard on how to call these so I am having a hard time finding them. Basically it's a device with several switchable send/return loops (I need at...

    So, Helix Native...

    (Sorry in advance if there's a thread for this already, I couldn't find one) Anyone tried the trial yet? Did you like it, yay or nay? How does it compare to the hardware equivalent? I haven't spent that much time on it yet but I feel it's a bit of a letdown. I mean, the sound is nice and the...

    My band has released a song and the chorus is catchy af!

    Yes, the title is clickbait and no I am not ashamed at all. :lol: I never thought I'd be in a band and see a stage again but about a year ago I randomly stumbled upon a couple of guys, one thing led to another and now we have released our first music video. I couldn't be happier. I hope you...

    Greetings from northern Germany!

    Hey guys, long time lurker here. Been on this forum for years and I used to have a couple of posts but I guess they got lost during one of the many forum overhauls in the past so allow me to re-introduce myself. I've been playing guitar for about 14 years now and at least half of that with a...
