Didnt see a thread for this game yet, somehow.
I finally got it, after erroneously assuming I couldn't run it on my 10 year old computer. Turns out I can run it at max settings at 4k. Dang they optimized this shit.
This game rules but Holy fuck I suck at it. Playing on normal mode and just...
I find myself in need of an SLO sound, and my eyes have fallen once again on the old standard AMT Legend pedals, specifically the S1 and the S2.
My understanding is that the main differences between the two are:
1. The S2 includes an output for "front of amp" input in addition to the preamp...

The article talks about how the first product replicates his exact signal chain, but from what I can see it's just an IR. Which, don't get me wrong, makes a big tone difference, but when I hear "replicate signal chain" I assume they...
Personally I like the middle-years Guy-Fieri-hair edition.
But there's something to be said for the modern viking-man version.
But then again, who can go wrong with the classic: multicolor Dave grohl?
When I had played guitar for about a year I bought myself a Schecter. It was my second guitar ever and I loved it. Eventually it kind of wore out. The frets got bad and I got bored of it. I sold it to a friend years ago on the cheap. Well a few years ago I started to miss it, and my friend still...
I have an 8 string guitar. I've had it for years. I love it. I have no idea what to play on it beyond low chugs.
Please recommend me some songs I can learn that use all 8 strings. Maybe a relatively approachable animals as leaders song?

So I was watching various art videos where they use UV cure resin left and right and it got me thinking about solarez again. I really want to be able to get a nice hard polyester resin topcoat on my guitars, but solarez always seems to come out tacky.
So I Googled it.
It sounds like that's...
Most of yall are probably too cool for Ghost, but I love em. New album comes out tomorrow so let's get a discussion thread going.
The recent singles have been awesome. The drums are mixed so punchy it's just wild.
I posted this on my thread in the Luthiery sub but here's my official NGD thread. I just finished this build and got it all (mostly) set up last night. Now it plays great and sounds amazing. I am loving these Duncan quarter pound pickups. And the fat neck is great. Fits my hands well.
Never...
This is a weird question that occurred to me recently. I posted it to reddit but, you know, reddit.
Preface : guitar pickups work as follows :
you have an inductor with a magnet in the center and a vibrating string over the inductor.
The magnet magnetizes the steel string.
As the magnetized...
After much deliberation and selling of gear (and guitar center sale prices) I have swapped my mediocre Douglas bass for a beautiful Sterling Stingray. The websites don't say it has a roasted maple neck but oh baby does it EVER. Can't wait to put some 40s on it and get slapping!
TITLE SHOULD SAY PJ, NOT JB
So I'm a (mediocre) guitar player and (mediocre) producer. I have a 5 string active Douglas HS bass that I use for recording and its okay. The neck has some issues but it makes bass noises. However for a long time I've wanted to get into bass playing - particularly...
I have a Mesa mkv 90w. I love it.
But....
The noise floor is really high. Even on the clean channel. And irrespective of how high the volume is set. There's just a not-insignificant noise floor hum going on at all times.
By contrast, my 45w quilter micro block is perfectly crystal clear...
In the past year or so I've gotten really into binge watching YouTube channels. I like to get familiar with a format and churn through their content in the background while I'm doing other stuff. Here are a few of my favorites:
Guga Foods / Sous Vide Everything
These are both channels...
I didn't see a thread for this. I'm sure a lot of us cook or bake or grill or smoke. Let's share some pictures!
Last weekend I made some Bajan-inspired hot sauce. I tweaked the recipe by adding garlic and also smoking all my veggies before blending.
Came out absolutely amazing. SO flavorful.
The Harley Benton build thread got me hankering to do a kit build myself. Does anyone have any experience with the Muslady kits on ebay and amazon? They are cheap as hell and look decent enough.
Is there anything wrong with them that I can't fix? I love doing fretwork and finishing. I'm just...
Hey all, I've got a bit of a stumper here. My main guitar is a '97 Ibanez rg. I am planning on refretting it with stainless soon and I figured while I had the neck off I might refinish the body as well, and maybe convert from pickup rings to direct mount.
Now I'd like to refinish by sanding the...
ITT: post a link to the latest revision of the mix you are working on, along with one thing you like about the previous post's mix and one thing you would change. Next person does the same for your post and so on. Like a relay.
I will start. Because there isn't a previous post, I'll pretend...
