I started using Jazz III's earlier this year and liked them, but it just started getting annoying how small the pick is. I have short stumpy fingers, which you'd assume is a good fit for these picks, but when I'd hold it "comfortably" I'd barely have enough pick to use. about 2 months ago I...
In a sense yes to both. I mean some people, like myself, aren't active musicians, but play equipment that IMO break the bank. It's like if you can use something lower-end, that isn't complete and total dog-$hit, and use a processor like stated to get that better tone, why not go this route...
I guess I didn't think of the cab quality. I mean I feel like most people that run a multi-fx unit like stated earlier just use the amp head for the power portion, am I right?
With all of these multi-fx out there on the market, such as the GSP1101, the Axe-FX 1, 2 and Ultra, is it really necessary then to have a high-quality Half-Stack or Power-amp? I mean especially if the processor really nails the sound of a specific amp you like with more adjustability, wouldn't...
For me it would be the Jeff Loomis FR. I think once it comes out though, the Jackson Chris Broderick 7 will at least be on the same level as the Loomis.
I saw this posted on his blog. I'm bummed though that the 7 is still going through some more tweaks before it hits production. I still don't know about that body, but I'm sure if I got the chance to play one I'd like it a lot. Thanks for the link. :hbang:
Have you tried looking at Musicians Friend? Free shipping and no tax. If I was in your budget range, this would be my first choice... Schecter Guitar Research Jeff Loomis-7 String Electric Guitar: Shop Guitars & Other Musical Instruments | Musician's Friend or if I would pay just an...
My current GAS list... Ibanez S7420 Schecter Jeff Loomis FR-7 Marshall EL34 100/100 or 9200 DigiTech GSP1101 This and a couple of Marshall 1960B cabs would hold me over for now :D
I have one here, and I like it a lot. I got it used with EMG 81-7 & 60-7 pups. I also did the 18v mod with them, and it sounds even better. I'm still contemplating whether or not to get either dual 707's or go back to passives and do Dimarzio D'Activators in it. Either way though, it is a...
For me it was reading up on Megadeth's Chris Broderick. I love Megadeth, but I had no idea they had gotten a new guitarist until I watched The Big 4 DVD and saw him. I then watched some video's of him on YouTube playing a 7 and I was blown away. Also from watching him I landed on Jeff Loomis...
Right now my RG7321 has D'Addario's on it with the stock gauge B. I'm gonna swap them out soon though to use Ernie Ball regular slinky's and use a 62 for the bottom string.
Is this thing worth the price? I'm looking at getting a Marshall EL34 100/100 Monobloc and I'm looking at either getting this or a JMP1 to go with it until the time comes for an Axe-FX Standard or Ultra.
Hey guys, I just picked up an RG7321 the other day in a straight trade for my Epi LP. It has EMG-81/7 (bridge), and EMG-60/7(neck) in her, but I want the 707's in her. Upon further investigation, the p'ups are the old solder versions, NOT the solder-less versions. Does anyone know though if...
If it were me, these would be my top three choices... 1. Schecter Jeff Loomis FR Sig 2. Ibanez S7420 3. Jackson soloist 7-string All are in your budget range if you wanna check them out.
Cool I'll look for that thread man thanks. First thing I'd do is definitely upgrade the p'ups no doubt. I did find a guy locally that I may try to trade my Epi LP Custom for a bone stock RG7321 plus cash to me, but if it falls through, I wouldn't mind getting one of these guitars.
