I'm just curious, does anyone have suggestions for alternative wirings for lever/blade switches? I'm swapping a 5-way blade with a 3-way blade, and was kind of wondering how many alternative wirings could be done for the center position. I'm hoping it's maybe possible to do neck parallel there...

So, my favorite neck pickup... Is the Seymour Duncan Black Winter I have in my PRS SE Semi-hollow from '07. It's got the black nickel metal plate on it, and a series/parallel switch. It is the clearest, most detailed tone I could possibly have hoped for in my semi, and it can do cleans and metal...

Aloha, all! If I should put this into my own thread, please just let me know. I intend to put in an order for an S1.6PP some time this weekend, but wasn't sure about customs costs. I live in the US; does anyone know if there's a separate customs charge from the order cost? Also, does anyone...

Quick update, I swapped computers from my desktop to a laptop. When the interface is plugged into a laptop it seems to completely get rid of the interference sound, so I think I can chalk this one up to either wall electrical interference or a faulty component of the desktop. Thanks for all of...

Hey all! I've been recording lately and trying out Impulse responses a lot over the last few weeks, but there seems to be either electrical or radio interference making its way into my recordings (as well as being output by the amp.) I'd appreciate any help or advice in the matter! My signal...

While I fear that this may be a dead fish, please feel free to redirect me to any pre-existing thread discussing the topic! I've been searching for something to remotivate me to learning new (to me) riffs and songs on guitar. I've even taken up learning flute due to boredom with what I already...

Have you ever looked at old chord notation (see:Coltrane)? Circles, (sometimes with a slash in them,) triangles... Bugged the crap out of me when I was trying to translate them lol.

Please, forgive me for trying to get back to the topic at hand.

Don't you love it when an question turns into people bitterly arguing semantics? I'm not trying to troll, people. I just want recommendations for something to learn.

Why do people constantly think I'm saying they don't use theory at all? I just said they use theory. Sometimes they don't, but usually they do. Anyways...

Mr. Jarzombek, as I recall? I like him a fair bit, including his guest solo with Obscura, and work with Spastic Ink.

To be clear on what I meant by what I said, I don't like playing noise metal. I'm okay with listening to it. Even with songs where the guitar doesn't seem to have any basis on theory, they compensate with vocals most of the time (see: Make Total Destroy) So, I'm not saying I dislike Periphery...

Hey guys, just wanted to know if anyone know which songs Periphery did, that sounded good, weren't straight noise metal, and were on six-strings. I've listened to them for a while, and I feel like it would be worth learning a fair bit of their music, but I'm lacking a 7/8 string and don't really...

(Random note, I love that the box I'm typing into to post this thread is a dark grey with white text. Much easier on my eyes. So, I'd appreciate some opinions on what my next guitar should be. I tend to have a fairly eclectic kind of music I play, so I think I'd like this next one to be focused...

I'd forgotten about the altoid solution lol. Any idea if those are conductive? Also, how does one put the slots in for the 1/4" jacks? Wire cutter, perhaps?

Hey all, not 100% sure on which sub-forum to pust this in. Please redirect if necessary! Does anyone know where I could get a pre-drilled enclosure for a pedal, for a relatively low price? The only holes I need drilled are for the in and out jacks, as well as a single pot. I'll be putting an...

I looked at them, but I have always had problems listening to their overdrive/distortion channel. Really lacking, for my taste. For a little while I was considering just getting one for their tube power amp, lol.

The metal tone I prefer for rhythm, is Periphery (of course.) Not as much of a fan of going completely out of any remote idea of a key, but I love the tone they get. For leads, I particularly like Obscura's solos from Cosmogenesis. Very high gain, lots of tapping, but it almost seems like a mix...

I think it's worth noting, that neither of those amps really fits my criteria? The Mark V sounds great, but I can't find one with 50+ watts in my price range. And the Friedman doesn't actually seem to have a metal tone, really. Heavy blues, maybe? Reminds me of SRV.

I'll try to make this concise: Need an amp head! Looking for one with a good metal tone, as well as a good clean tone. Seeking recommendations around the $1500-1600 range. Preferences: Amplifier head 6l6 tubes in the power section More than 25 watts Any and all recommendations...
