    Mark Holcomb limited edition signature PRS

    Slightly OT: Not trying to sound cocky, but that chord is not that hard as it seems really, it is just unfamiliar to most of us (John Mayer, Jimi Hendrix and Allan Holdsworth use that stretchy thumb-wrap chord most of the time). I'm Asian and have REALLY small hands: --5-- index --8--...

    Top 5 favorite guitar duos

    School me on Yamaha guitars?

    I've played Yamaha Pacifica 212v and they felt amazing, very easy to play. My only problem is when i think of Yamaha i'm always reminded of this :lol:

    Schecter USA Production Series?

    As a listener, I find the following highly generic and unoriginal
