    Help me make a decision -- 2011 Mint Condition EBMM JPXI BFR Onyx

    Hi there fellas, hoping you could help a guy out. I've been planning on getting a JP model in the future again after selling my JP6 and I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on a used JPXI BFR. Owner says it's in mint condition and he sent pics and video that seems to confirm it. He's selling...

    24 inch vs 24.75 inch scale length -- Jaguar vs Powercaster

    So, I'm looking for a new guitar -- a play mostly metal and rock but I am trying to expand my taste into some blues and I'm thinking of getting something with a scale length that's shorter than my usual. I currently have electric guitars that are all 25.5" scale length instruments and I do...

    NGD First 7-string: I wished I had an Angel...

    So, it finally came: Thoughts: The thing has been an absolute joy to play right out of the box -- I like the 25.5 inch scale length since it still lets me do more expressive lead playing, while still having djentability. I've played only 6-string guitars all my life so there is...

    Passive pickups for metal/metalcore/djent for RGA321

    Hi everyone, hope your all having a lovely weekend. Just wanted to ask if you guys could recommend some good pickups for my RGA321 -- my current Dimarzio (D-activators, I believe) set in them just ain't doing the likes of Killswitch Engage, Periphery, Architects and others justice, at least...

    Deciding on an EBMM guitar

    Hi there all, would really appreciate some advice. I'm thinking of getting an Ernie Ball Music Man and I'm deciding on whether to get the Stingray, the Cutlass HSS or the James Valentine model. I generally prefer thinner neck shapes but since they don't have EBMM guitars where I live, I don't...

    Question about Marco Sfogli's Ibanez Signature

    Hi guys, just wanted to ask a question about the Ibanez MSM1, aka Marco Sfogli's Ibanez Premium Signature. Since they just announced the new Ibanez 2019 lineup and Marco has a new signature AZ Prestige, I'm anticipating that his previous signature Premium model is going to drop in price soon...

    Super-strat battle: Charvel DK24 vs Ibanez AZ Premium

    Alright guys, I'm looking for a new super-strat, mostly for metal and hard rock. Used to own a JP6, had to sell it for bills, now looking to replace the void with something cheaper for the meantime since I don't have a 24-fret guitar with a trem bar. Narrowed down my choices to two...

    Getting started with digital guitar plug-ins and audio interfaces

    Hey guys, maybe you can help me. I've been playing with a small lunchbox amp now and I've decided to start saving up money -- right now, I can afford either a really good guitar rig or a really good gaming PC. Since I'm really more of a hobbyist, I'm thinking of compromising and giving VST...

    My first extended range guitar -- 7 string or 8 string? Multi-scale or not?

    So, I think I'm finally ready to buy my first extended-range guitar. I'm by no means bored with my six-string electrics but a lot of the songs I've been wanting to learn (Deftones, Meshuggah, Trivium, Periphery, Korn) all pretty much require an extended range instrument to pull off, at least...

    Thinking of getting a crossover nylon string guitar

    Hey guys, hoping for some help. I'm thinking of buying a nylon string guitar with a slim neck -- I already have a steel-string Taylor and I'm thinking of buying a Taylor 312-CeN. However, I've also heard good things about Cordoba guitars and I'm interested in their Cordoba Fusion 14 model...

    Having trouble finding a used Custom 24. Should I get a CE 24 instead?

    Hello all, hope everyone's good. I've been on the hunt for a used PRS Custom 24 for a while now and it's been a little tricky one that ticks off all my boxes (color, pattern thin neck, relatively affordable). I began looking at some of the other options, namely a CE 24 and I'm just wondering...

    Thinking of selling my JP6 and getting a JP15.

    So I've owned a JP6 for a few years now. It's a really comfortable guitar -- the neck is thin but not overly so and I love the features. However, when I play it back-to-back with my Charvel San Dimas, I find that the JP6 has a bit of a chimey, clangy sound, almost like its too resonant. My...

    Any EVH Wolfgang Special users?

    Hey guys, just here to for some input. I'm thinking of an EVH Wolfgang Special as my next purchase. I'll probably get it used as I do with most of my gear. I'm mostly interested in the D-Tuna FR Bridge, because Standard and Drop D are two of my most commonly used tunings and I really like...

    Looking to get a Strat that's not-a-strat

    Hey guys, hoping for some quick input and advice. I currently own three electrics and all are equipped with a dual humbucker set-up. I'm looking for something a little different, so I'm thinking of buying something a bit more vintage-looking with some single-coils. I have tried Fender Strats...

    My THR10x sounds kind of weak in Drop C -- any pedals to improve the rhythm tone?

    Hey guys, just want to ask for some help. I've been very happy with my Yamaha THR10X modeling amp -- it's a great practice tool and great for spontaneous practice sessions. However, I tried out my Ibanez RGA321 loaded with DiMarzio D-Activators and while lead tones were pretty good, I just...

    Is the DV Mark Multi-amp any good?

    Hey guys, anyone here use the DV Mark Multiamp? It's relatively inexpensive, has patches online for download and has a built-in poweramp. How does it compare to Kemper, Line 6 or AxeFx?

    Yamaha THR10x + Amplifire Box = ? Amplifire users in general also welcome

    Hey guys, any users of the Amplifire Modeler here? From what I understand, its basically a scaled-down version of an AxeFX since it uses the same tech, but is more for people don't want or need the insane amount of stuff in an AxeFX. I'm currently quite happy with my Yamaha THR10x practice...

    Hi there lovely people, hoping for some advice. A friend of mine got her dad's old Fender American Elite Telecaster for her birthday and she's thinking of replacing the stock pickups with a set that's more suited for modern rock and metal (Mastodon, Coheed and Cambria, Stone Sour Slipknot...
