    Not happy with my Agile baritone. Wanted to get something new. Help me out.

    Currently have an Agile Septor Pro 627 that I bought used. I put a Nazgul in the bridge and it gets the tone I want, but I'm not happy with the intonation and fret buzz. I've previously had the guitar professionally setup, but it's never seemed to get 100% there for me (perhaps this is why they...

    Advice on first seriously cheap microphone to mess around and figure stuff out with. WARNING: The first person to say sm57 gets vapourised!

    Not sure how they sound, but the Shure SM48 is on sale for $40 at Sweetwater right now. I really don't think I'd spend any less than this on a Mic. I can't imagine going any cheaper is going to sound very good, but at least it's a Shure product so it should be halfway decent.

    How do you guys typically record with amp sims? Gain or no gain on your interface?

    Yeah, I'm running a Seymour Duncan Nazgul and was very surprised how good it sounded with zero gain on the interface and the plugin. I always thought the signal would be too low, but it sounds pretty nice. I may just record like this from now on. I feel like my older tones were perhaps TOO hot...

    How do you guys typically record with amp sims? Gain or no gain on your interface?

    I recently bought a Universal Audio Volt 176 interface and I was watching a review on it by Ola Englund. In the video he states that when recording guitars DI like this with an amp sim he just puts it into instrument mode and leaves the interface gain all the way down. For whatever reason it had...

    Has anyone reviewed the non-Vintage 30 Harley Benton G212 cab?

    This sounds great actually. Since I run an Axe Fx, everything I do is direct- live and recording. I essentially just need a cabinet that can keep up in a practice or on stage. Thanks!

    Has anyone reviewed the non-Vintage 30 Harley Benton G212 cab?

    Yeah, I'm not even necessarily worried about what kind of speakers they are. If they sound good, they sound good. I'm just trying to find more clips of them or people who have personal experience with them.

    Has anyone reviewed the non-Vintage 30 Harley Benton G212 cab?

    Here's the thing though, I've heard both English and Chinese made V30s swapped into the same cab and still liked the English ones better. I think you're letting your own personal bias warp your view of what's going on here. Or maybe you're just virtue signaling, idk. Either way, you're ignoring...

    Has anyone reviewed the non-Vintage 30 Harley Benton G212 cab?

    Good to know. So do you know of any reviews of the regular G212 then? Or any non-Vintage HB cab for that matter?

    Has anyone reviewed the non-Vintage 30 Harley Benton G212 cab?

    Just as the title says, I'm having a lot of trouble finding a Youtube or written review on the regular HB cabs without the Vintage 30s. After some research I've found that the V30s in those cabs are Chinese made and actually don't sound quite as good and UK V30s. To me, the regular cab sounds...

    Help me choose a new cab!

    Thanks guys! I'm just going to pick up a used Laney I think. Like I said, I haven't played guitar in a band for over two years now, and I don't even know if I'll be playing guitar in the future. It's not worth keeping the Mesa around if it's just going to gather dust. I'd rather it get some use...

    Help me choose a new cab!

    I mean, I don't disagree with you guys. In fact, I had two of them already and just sold one. The point is, I'm not really playing guitar that much anymore (I've been playing a lot more bass in bands these days), so I really don't NEED the cab. I actually haven't even used it in about two years...

    Help me choose a new cab!

    Alright, so here's my situation. I haven't been playing guitar quite as much as I used to, so I'm looking to downsize my rig and recoup some money. I currently have a Mesa Recto 2x12, but I'm looking at getting just a large 1x12 instead. Since I play mostly down tuned metal, I want something...

    Is there a place for gear selling/trade here?

    Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I was wondering if this forum had a place for people to list any gear they may want to trade or sell. Do we have a place on SS.org for stuff like this?

    Official Axe-Fx Q&A thread!

    I have an Axe Fx standard, but I'm looking to buy a II. What is the going price/what should I sell my standard for?

    Looking for an extended scale 6 string, any suggestions?

    Yeah, I thought about that one after I posted. That's a good choice too. I'll have to look into it further.

    Looking for an extended scale 6 string, any suggestions?

    I've been playing in drop G lately on a standard scale guitar, but it just barely holds the tuning and I have to use enormous strings to do it. I know the simple answer is to buy a 7 string, but I just have never been comfortable playing them. So, my question is what are some of the available...

    My band just shot a video! (Schecter/6505+ content)

    I appreciate that. Like they always say, when recording high gain guitars you don't need as much gain as you think. On the other note, why you hatin on mah moves mannn haha? Hahaha that gave me a good laugh.

    My band just shot a video! (Schecter/6505+ content)

    Hey, I just joined so I figured I'd make this my first post. We just shot a music video for our new song "Strapped to the Bomb" and I figured I'd share it with you guys. Everything is completely DIY. The video, music, production, everything. You guys might not like the music and/or the way...
