    Entering the World of Amp Sims....

    I would just continue using Reaper for your DAW. Only move on if you find another DAW suits your workflow more down the road. "Mercuriall.com" has a bunch of good free plugins I often use over my paid ones. It came to mind when you said you wanted the "modified marshall" thing because they have...

    Any 30” 6 stringers with a Floyd?

    I really like my Kotetsu Seed. Pretty nasty guitar... thing? It's 33", not 30" if that's a deal breaker. I got mine used so I can't comment on setup and such from factory. All my pickups were replaced minus the P90 by previous owner.

    What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

    Guitars are more economical, unless you're buying something in .22 :lol: I bought a FN PS90 about a month ago and though enjoyable, I definitely have to pace myself to not go out back and blow $100 down range 😅

    Another addition to the Peavey collection. Got this 2nd Gen Peavey 6505 straight cab from GC for $260. Damn near perfect condition. GC's packing job on this one was probably the best I have ever seen from them so kudos. These appear to be the exact same dimensions as the original 5150 cabinets...

    Pick an Album to Re-record

    In order of most important to less important. Protest The Hero - Kezia, one of my all time favorite albums but would love hearing it sound more like anything that came after it. I really like Scurrilous' mix. Nice edge to it but still clean sounding. I think it would fit better than the Uber...

    Advice on new low-tuning amp

    I have an RD100H. Solid amp but I would describe it as "round" sounding, with not a lot of bite or snappiness so it may not be ideal for lower stuff. Not that you can't, just wouldn't be my first choice out of my 18 or so heads. I guess it also depends what you're calling low tuning? My C#...

    In search of 6 string guitar with long sustain for Doom/ Funeral Doom metal

    I mean really all you would have to do is screw in the neck if you bought a loaded body somewhere, it is remarkably easy as the bolts that come with the neck just go right in the existing 4 holes on the body into the neck. As long as you have a Philips head screwdriver that is! I wouldn't sell...

    In search of 6 string guitar with long sustain for Doom/ Funeral Doom metal

    I don't know if you're open to assembling your own guitar (to a point), but out of all my guitars the one with the longest sustain is my Squier Bullet Telecaster body I put an aluminum Baguley 25.5" neck on. That guitar sustains for what feels like forever. Lots of doom / doom-adjacent guys are...

    What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

    Been trying to get a deal on a 5153 100W Stealth for a while. Had some refunds here and there over the months because of standards or 50W versions being labeled as the Stealth. A month or so ago I found the EL34 100W Stealth version for $1400 and ordered that one, knowing damn well I will...

    Lundgren M8 Sounds like absolute wet garbage-Help!!

    That def sounds reminiscent of my M8 in my Ibanez M80M so I wouldn't think anything is wrong with the pickup. They have a very defined upper mid honk I haven't heard in any other pickup. It does sound a hair more "hollow" but that just sounds like the modeler preset your using to me. Is it...

    Does anyone have the old Taranov Mark III VST?

    Is this it? I don't know if my PC has an accurate date but it says the date modified was 08/31/13 so that might be pretty close or spot on. I've never posted a zip on here so if that doesn't work I can just give you a dropbox link.

    What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

    I thought I bought an EVH 5150III Stealth 100W head today from GC's used Website today for $1100 because the picture ACTUALLY showed a 100W Stealth (I checked! 95% of the time it's a normal 5150III or a 50W). Just got an email that even though the picture was a 100W Stealth it was actually a...

    What's on your workbench?

    With all the talk about the new Delonge Strat rerelease I wanted to do somthing similar. I found one of those new Squier Sonic Strat HT Hs on GC's used website for $99. Kind of strange to have something that new that cheap already so I went ahead and ordered it. Really impressed with it when it...

    What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

    Saw a Peavey 3120 pop up on Guitar Center's Used website for $420, no pictures, just marked as "Good Condition" so I took the dive. Typically it seems like they list them closer to the $699 range which imo is too damn steep. When it showed up I was shocked at how well they packed it. The second...

    What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

    Ordered an IK Amplitube X-Space Reverb Pedal and an IK Amplitube X-Time Delay Pedal from Chicago Music Exchange on Reverb. They have a deal going where they are $170 each so I said fuck it, we'll see how they are and if I don't jive I'll unload em for what I paid 🤷‍♂️

    What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

    The longest lol. I started on 5 string bass when I was 10 y/o so it isn't outside the realm of playability but I'll be damned if it feels borderline excessive.

    What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

    My Seed Kotetsu I ordered from Japan came in today. I pulled the pups and checked them; the bridge is a Duncan Distortion Trembucker and the middle position is a Little '59. Neck is probably the stock P90 as it has no markings. I will be replacing the cover with a pure white cover to match the...

    Ultra Low Baritone Recommendations

    Obviously most of us would probably tune it lower but the dood who it's a signature guitar for tunes it to B standard. Reason being is when he puts a capo on the 5th fret it makes it E standard at a 25.5" scale. Kind of weird but I respect it.

    What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

    Got this in the mail from GC's used website for $160. It's an Ibanez GIO GRGR131EX (rolls off the tongue!) Was scrolling a generic search for "Ibanez" in their used section and it caught my eye. Noticed the one pickup config and on closer inspection noticed the EMG and Hipshot locking tuners...

    Fighting the Japanese Resellers

    That's my worry. It's possible somebody bought it elsewhere before I bought the resellers listing. Fingers crossed though because it was just listed with like 12 hours of my purchase. We'll see if it comes through in a few weeks.
