    Mick Thompson with ESP now?

    I actually really like the sound of the punchy passive bridge one or whatever (the 2nd one throughout the bridge portion). Idk if I'd pick a set up but his tone admittedly sounds very tight and nuanced. In the first video above I get what he's saying about pickup consistency. I've had a few...

    RIP Sam Ash. All stores closing

    I'm kind of with you on this but I think rock music has just stagnated really hard in recent years. It's either the same bands that have been doing it forever or none at all. I think the advent of the internet has also lead more kids to getting into metal now than ever before but being the...

    The picking technique thread

    I think it varies by player quite a bit though. Obviously guys like John Petrucci or Rick Graham can do both. Michael Angelo Batio just brute forces through shapes with alternate picking that would make way more sense with economy, ie. lines with an odd number of notes (3 notes per string, etc)...

    The picking technique thread

    From the impression I've gotten from a lot of people the foundation of alternate picking is great to go on before moving to the other stuff. Problem is I plateau'd years ago with alternate picking and economy has been the only thing to break it down for me personally. I know this isn't a huge...

    The Best V Guitar Of All Time.

    Did we ever decide what the best was? We should run a poll. No, the Kerry King tick thing can't be in it.

    The V and X Shaped Guitars Thread!

    That purple SV is so sick. Been debating on getting one, I just prefer the shorter lower horn of the japanese models.

    Low profile strap locks?

    The peg seems to be sticking out just as much as what I'm currently dealing with. The dimarzio cliplocks are more in line with what I'm looking for I think. Just something pretty much flush with the guitar because the location of the strap lock pin on my guitar causes me to bump my hand on it...

    New Motley Crue single Dogs Of War with weird AI generated looking video

    Most true statement in the thread. A lot of these bands manage to pull off this miracle where people are so nostalgic for their one good album that they'll continuously overlook the plethora of turds they've spewed out since their heyday. Guns N Roses are the next band that immediately comes to...

    Low profile strap locks?

    I ended up ordering a few of these. These appear to be about as low profile as it's going to get

    Anybody following this hilarious Summer Slaughter story?

    Holy fucking shit I forgot how good those early Summer Slaughter lineups were. I unfortunately didn't get to see the Necrophagist one and never did catch them live despite being a huge fan. Saw a ton of other great bands and performances at other Summer Slaughters though. This new one is just...

    Low profile strap locks?

    Anyone have any good recommendations for these? Just threw on some dunlop strap locks on one of my guitars and they just stick out so damned far off of the guitar the my hand bumps them a bit when playing the upper frets. Obviously this is less than ideal so trying to see if anyone has used...

    Chuck Schuldiner's Personal Green Custom Shop Stealth Up for Bid

    I think he only ever recorded a little bit with it towards the end of his career, so if I had to guess on The Sound of Perseverance. Who knows though.

    Post Your Physical Media! (Vinyl, Tape, CDs, etc)

    If I started posting all of the CDs and vinyls I have there'd be like two pages of posts by just me lol. Here are my most recent two.

    What bands did you see live recently / are waiting to see?

    Flying out to Texas Domination Fest in September-ish to see Severed Savior. It'll be the first show back in 12 years or something like that. They're also headlining one of the days so that makes it a little better. Oleg from here will also be on 2nd guitar with them so that's sick too. Also...

    Chuck Schuldiner's Personal Green Custom Shop Stealth Up for Bid

    To state it again, you guys are right. My only thing was not wanting to see it sold just for the sake of a quick buck (this isn't the case) or disappearing from this point on, but really, would it even matter? Some of these people have done great things when purchasing gear like that, such as...

    Chuck Schuldiner's Personal Green Custom Shop Stealth Up for Bid

    You're right. I didn't realize all of this stuff was going on. Hopefully it finds a good home. Same. I remember a little of it around the start of the Death To All stuff but I think that was when Eric Greif was still alive and running things. Even then, I don't think the dude was up to...
