    Intonation issues and dead sounding g string

    Hello guys, my esp ltd sn200 ht is giving me some problems. First of all the saddles of the e and d string are as close to the bridge pickup as i can get them and the intonation is just barely right. The g string sounds like it has not been change in year even tho its new. It's acoustically much...

    Mayones Velvetrone pickups

    A lot of guitars they showed at guitar summit this year had them installed and i've seen quite a few of them online for sale. The bridge is an alnico V instead of a ceramic magnet used for the tko.

    Mayones Velvetrone pickups

    Has anyone here been able to try the new mayones pickups? I recently custom ordered a new regius and decided i would try them out. I will still have to wait over a year for the guitar to arrive. Just curious if anyone has tried them so far

    Right tools to file a guitar nut (Mega thick strings)

    Hi guys, i recently bought a 6 string that came with 10-46 strings. Now i wanna play some architects and tune to C# standard with the lowest string dropped to g#. 11-56 + a 70 instead of the 56. All i find is custom sized nut files or super expansive ones and if anyone could suggest good ones or...

    Esp LH-150 vs SD Jazz/JB

    It's personal preference but i greatly prefer the Jazz. Very sweet tone and not an overwhelming amout of bass.

    Esp LH-150 vs SD Jazz/JB

    Well the neck was thicker than i expected. It's more like a not so thin U, but still comfortable enough. I choose it because of the solid color and no binding, which i feel like they never get right at that price. Quality is honestly great for the money, it feels solid to play. Overall i'm happy...

    Esp LH-150 vs SD Jazz/JB

    I recently bought a new ltd and after hearing time and time again that stock pickups are not good on cheap inport guitars, i wanted to install my old SD to find out how much it would actually inprove the tone. Imo the stock ones weren't terrible, but especially the jazz in the neck is a major...

    Installing pickups with no screw thread

    I wanted to install the sd pickups that were in my old guitar into my new one. Those pickups were previously direct mounted and the screw threads were enlarged with a drill. My new guitar however has all the electronics mounted to the pickguard. The screws don't fit at all and i have no idea how...

    Ltd 200 series quality

    Hello guys, i am considering buying an Ltd sn200ht for some lower tuned music (architects) and i am not sure if this is a good investment. I am used to playing mayones guitars and i don't want this guitar to feel like firewood in comparison. Any input would be appreciated.

    Ibanez 2022 discussion.

    A few fixed bridge az's or some talmans would have been cool. The poplar trend is going on for far too long :(

    SD Jazz/JB vs BKP Juggernaut

    DI's for everything but the crunch sounds are available if you wamt to reamp. I don't think they sound very similar, at least when i play them they feel very different.

    SD Jazz/JB vs BKP Juggernaut

    I'll mess around with the pickup height and amp tones more tomorrow. I really wanted the clarity for high gain and the bkp definitely does that perfectly, it just feels a bit sterile after having the jb for so long. Mishas words about picking hard are absolutely true. The pickups shows you...

    SD Jazz/JB vs BKP Juggernaut

    Now that i've been playing them for a few days, i'm kinda surprised the jb is higher in output than the juggs. The chugs are kinda lacking atm. Should i raise the pickups more (4mm at bass and 3-4 at treble side atm) or just change my axe preset?

    SD Jazz/JB vs BKP Juggernaut

    Thank you guys for responding. Tbh i quite liked the Jazz/JB combo but wanted more clarity in the bridge for high gain. The neck is a little bit to warm for my taste but i can shape to tone on the axe fx so it's not a problem. The JB had something very interesting that i liked, may not be the...

    SD Jazz/JB vs BKP Juggernaut

    Juggernauts in Mayones Regius 6

    Hi Guys, i'm planning to change the jazz/jb set in my Regius (hipshot, 2019 build) to Bkp Juggernauts. Is it a direct fit? And does anyone perhaps know which spacing i need? I am hoping for more clarity when playing bigger chords under high gain, the jb kinda drowns out the high notes.
