    6505+ into a torpedo live... And I can hear the guitar through the head!

    So I am finally able to play my 6505+ in my apartment due to the purchase of a torpedo live. The weird thing is, I plugged it on, played through headphones happily, and then noticed when I took the headphones off, I could hear my guitar (very tinny, very low volume) when I played, seemingly...

    Post your single pickup sixer pics!

    I absolutely adore single pickup guitars. I used to own a single hum Yamaha, but alas no more, and want to inspire my GAS. Come at me with those single pickup guitar pics (preferable ones you own)! :hbang:

    Rivera RockCrusher Recording vs Two Notes Torpedo

    Hi all, as per the title, how is the difference in sound between these two? I have a bunch of 100watt tube amps, and currently live in an apartment with no cabs. It's killing me, and I am done with substituting with a POD. My primary need is picking up a guitar when inspiration strikes...

    Is Progressive Metal the new Cock Rock?

    I was watching Youtube last night, and in particular Anthony Fantano's recent take on Lil Yachty, and it made me think about the last time I heard a "revolution" in music I listened to, and it made me think of Smells Like Teen Spirit. It is widely perceived to be Nirvana that spelled the end of...

    JCM800 soundalikes

    What's the SS.Org opinion on JCM800 style amps? They are damn expensive here, and cheaper used alternatives readily available and affordable to me are: Krank Chadwick Krank Nineteen80 Peavey Windsor Peavey Butcher (newer model) JCM900 (almost all dual reverbs, unfortunately) JCM2000 DSL...

    Mesa .50 Caliber (not plus)... Any good?

    Hi all, I might be able to get a somewhat decent deal ($750AUD) on a Mesa .50 Caliber, non-plus version (trust me, that is a decent price in Australia) and I was wonderng if any forumites own one/have used one and what your opinion is? My musical style is pretty unfocused at the moment...

    Rest, Repose -The Sleep City EP... Mastering Issues?

    So I parted with my hard-earned and grabbed the aforementioned EP from Bandcamp and had a listen. Music aside, what the hell went on in the mastering phase? I don't know enough about production to use the fancy terminology, but the 320kbps copy had what I would call ridiculous amounts of...

    I apologise if this has been posted in the past, (please delete if this is the case) but I thought this was extremely cool. I didn't post this as a Dan Tompkins diss either, I think he is an amazing vocalist and really mis him singing for Tesseract (although his new stuff with In Colour...

    EDWARDS E-UT-100SL 27" Baritone

    Shoot me if there has been a thread about these before, but when I searched I found zip. These look really interesting to me... the shape looks new to me and they are pretty basic which is a refreshing change. And they are Edwards... I own two of their guitars and can vouch for the exceedingly...

    Fuzz appreciation thread

    We hear it all the time when we decide that mechanical, cold distortion isn't what we want to hear... beautiful, warm, FUZZ. I first fell in love with Fuzz hearing Smashing Pumpkins' "Siamese Dream"... but of course everyone from Hendrix lovers to Page afiicianadoes love their fuzz. My...

    I was wondering if forum members might be able to help me. I am trying to find examples of Fender (or fender-type) strats used in modern metal, primarily for the rhythm tone. And preferably using a single coil (or soundalike retrofit). I have a few examples below that I thought sounded...

    NGD: 2006 ESP Eclipse NOS (56K: Gor for it)

    Today was a good day. I was able to find a dude on Ebay who had a 2006 ESP Standard Series Eclipse that was so unused it still had the tags on it, genuine NOS. So I picked it up and a week later here it is. The case I had to leave back in the states as I wanted the cheaper postage so it was...
