    Gibson files against Dimarzio for PAF and double cream

    I don't understand what took them this long if they think this is legitimate. I'm not from there, but does this mean any design, let's say the form factor of Boss Pedals go through the process of application and then approval for exclusivity? I suppose it cannot be generalized for every...

    Kiko Loureiro has moved on from Megadeth

    Posting from his FB: As much as I love Megadeth, I really miss him with Angra. That said, I hope Teemu gets the spot. He's terrific to watch - great player with another unique style.

    SD HyperSwitch

    This looks a somewhat novel. I remember SD had the Liberator. But with this switch, you can apparently change the configuration of coils, split, parallel, series or whatever with a bluetooth connection to your phone. For some of us who like to go through pickups, and try out various coil...

    Vai, Petrucci talk about financial issues of touring.

    I came across this article where Vai mentions that things have gotten rather worse post-covid for the industry, particularly with touring. Petrucci has said something similar in a recent interview somewhere. It's not new. Trying to earn a decent income in music has always been wishy washy for...

    Nickelback sounds much better than a lot of modern music...

    I've listened to a bit of Nickelback back then. But I got on the bandwagon myself, and for no reason. They've got good tones on the Dark Horse album, (possibly a rectifier?), and the riffs were catchy, and the lyrics were relatable. That is so rare in today's hard rock. They were a good band...

    Lack of hardtails / 24 frets

    The title almost says it all. For the kind of guitars we are drawn to here, almost all of these companies are dominated by floating bridges in their nicer models. It's like a ratio of 5:1 for Jackson, or Ibanez, or even ESP. Schecter makes a nice fixed-bridge 25.5 guitar - the C6 Pro. But...

    Late NGD: Ibanez RG MIJ

    Got this Ibanez RG a few months ago. Was waiting to get the pickguard changed into the black 3-ply before I did any NGD. Here are some pics I took earlier and after the swap... This guitar is somewhat of a dream guitar as white is my favourite color along with orange and I absolutely...

    NGD: Ibanez RG3250 Fluorescent Orange

    I almost missed this Ibanez RG3250 FOR. But pics first :) In fact I asked a different seller for another guitar initially. The color on that is somewhat similar to this, but I never saw it in person so I actually can't tell.... As I was waiting for that guitar to arrive, being very...

At the moment though, I'm having some issues with the Edge Zero locking studs. So I received the guitar today, RG3250 FOR. Very anxious to get it setup to...

    Ibanez RG/Dimarzio suggestions + color scheme

    Hello friends, I might get a new guitar soon. As you can tell from the pics, it might be orange! In terms of pickup response I want something a little different than the Tone Zone/Air Norton combo my other existing RG has. I really like that combo. Both pickups sound amazing, and unique. As...

    Do you have a Snappy Pinky (fret hand)?

    I've been struggling to tame this snappy pinky joint of my fretting hand for a long time. My only solution was to strengthen the pinky with hammer ons/pull offs. The issue is that at the back of my mind I know if I lift the pinky just a little bit more than I should, it would probably snap out...

    Dorje's new music video, 'Catalyst'

    Good to see Rob Chapman without his glasses! And his singing is quite unique. Would be awesome to meet Rob in person. I'm sure some of you would like this. Happy belated Halloween! :evil:

    NGD: RG3250 Desert Yellow

    Desert Yellow is a tough color to capture on camera. But here are my additions. This is the RG3250 with the dot inlays. Pics first.... Bought this gutiar from a fantastic Jemsite member, UnklPunk. Initially I bought a different guitar from him a few months ago and in the process he...

    Color Questions: RG655 SPM Subterranean Purple Metallic

    Hey friends, Color: Im seeking out my next purchase. Reading reviews of the new RG655s, I'm contemplating getting the RG655 SPM. The stock images of the RG655 SPM on the net looks great. However, the purple looks bright on those pics, whereas shots of the guitar look darker on Sweetwater and...

    A little cleaning help please. Just bought a dirty RG2550

    Hey friends, I would love to do an NGD like some of you guys here..But I can't cause this RG2550 is so dirty. I am going out to get some 0000 grade steel wool, murphy oil soap, and masking tape for the frets, english oil for the fretboard. Is that going to be enough to make these frets shine...

    Ibanez 1988 540S (hsh) question

    Hey guys, need your opinion on this Ibanez 540S (not S540). I came across this just recently and am considering trading my S520 2008 (dimarzio illumin n/transi b). Mine is in mint shape in fact though, supposedly surprising. 1. Are those SS frets on the 540S? I really want SS frets so that I...
