    the unknown solo

    About a year ago I rediscovered Judas Priest's Turbo which I had largely dismissed when it came out because musically JP turned left just when I turned right to thrash. Side note this is a great album and nary a bad song on the whole thing. There are songs I don't necessarily care for but they...

    Is anyone following this Lynch/Peavey/KDH drama

    So apparently KDH has released two youtube videos that show an old video of George Lynch stating that Peavey used prison labor for amp building and that mayor may not have played a part in him ditching his planned XXX amp. Although prison labor is nothing new and happens everywhere it is pretty...

    Why is this not the biggest (thrash) band on the planet?

    I know thrash as a genre of metal is kinda dead but there have been numerous bands that have emerged since its heyday that have proven to be more than capable of carrying the old school torch that was passed to them. I admit that I have and will always have a soft spot for Slayer. I admit that...

    Any pickup experts able to identify this please?

    Anyone know what this pickup might be? Besides a humbucker obviously. No brand or markings on it anywhere. Kind of a unique wiring assembly on the back. Any particular manufacturer use this? Thanks in advance.

    'Splain one aspect of intonation please

    Ok...I get intonation and how to adjust it but what I can't wrap my head around is this....why...on basically identical guitars with a floyd rose do I find soooo much variation on the placement of the individual saddles either pushed forward or pulled back compared to other identical guitars...

    NGD: Just like peas in a pod really....

    So I walked into my local guitar store and walked out with these two...(technically I didn't walk out with both on the same day because one was on a longer pawn hold). In one respect they are nearly identical in that I NEVER....ever....thought I would own either. I always thought ES-335s were...

    NGD (x a few) with a twist at the end?

    It been a busy few weeks getting guitars I've wanted and some I didn't know I wanted. First, I finally got my very first ESP. Have lots of nice LTD's but this is my first ESP and I have wanted this guitar, an M2 UC, for a VERY long time. I don't know why...it just reminds me of something I like...

    Central Bank Digital Currency...are we racing to Dystopia?

    By all accounts the crypto currency in use around the world is driving governments towards adopting a central bank issued digital currency that will supposedly allow the "best" features of traditional money along with crypto. The Fed here in the US is strongly hinting its a when and not an if...

    John 5 out with Rob Zombie and in with the Crue?

    https://www.wearethepit.com/2022/10/rumor-has-guitarist-john-5-left-rob-zombies-band/ A separate article mentions that John 5 might replace ailing Mick Mars on future Crue tours. Now if they could just replace tommy vince and put a gag on nikki I might be interested in the crue again.

    I would like to talk about this guitar please-Ibanez experts requested

    Ibanez Dyuke. There is precious little about this on the internets. Never heard of it before. Late 80's build. MIJ with ebony board from a company that doesn't really do ebony, heavily flamed maple neck, edge trem, in house active electronics, 24 frets. Where does this fit in with Jem/RG...

    40 years later, still the best version of a 50 y/o song

    Ozzy was coked out of his mind (as was every performer that day) but to me this remains the definitive version of paranoid thanks to Jake E Lee. I still think he did it best especially giving a subtle something to the song that no one else ever has (at least that I have heard)...a pick attack...

    I hate the fact that slayer...I mean SLAYER!!!!....

    I hate the fact that the term “slayer fan” is a pejorative. I hate the fact that the term “slayer fan” deserves to be a pejorative. I hate the fact that so many slayer fans attended slayer concerts. It’s actually frightening to know there were that many parolees in one metro area. I hate the...

    I can't find anything faster, heavier, more aggressive...honestly

    For the grey beards in the audience to enjoy and the new kids on the block to experience. This was 1984. 19....84. Although Halford's operatic vocals and lyrical content were giving way to growling and barking heard in thrash and other metal which made this type of singing sound more passe I...

    NGD: Now available in black....

    If you look very closely you will notice that it is black.... In this pic you will observe that there is even more black.... In this pic you will notice it has a headstock... Pictured along with its brothers and sisters...although they are guitars so they may identify as non-binary. TBH the...

    Need help finding a stupid little part for floyd rose

    Despite the internet allowing every possible thing to be at your fingertips, no matter how obscure, I have thus far failed in my efforts to find a certain kind of trem post for floyd rose but I know they exist. Any help would be appreciated if anyone knows. I want the trem posts that have a...
