    Talk me INTO re-purchasing the H&K GM40D

    I am having regrets about selling it last time. I sold it mainly because people have convjnced me that I would have been throwing money at something I wouldnt be sure about. And thus convinced me that I should probably go down the modeller route, for the sake of simplicity. But the more I think...

    Boss Gt-100 noob help with 4cm patch

    I tried to register to the Randall/Boss community forum and for some reason it wont see my email address as valid, so I come to you guys and gals. I use my gt-100 in the 4cm with my 6505+ 120w.

    How long/short is your guitar strap when standing?

    I dont know if it's because I'm a long time bedroom warrior, and am most comfortable playing sotting down hunched over the guitar, but I find it impossible to play with the guitar hanging low while im standing. I can play standing fine but the strap has to be on the shorter side. Not "nerdy"...

    Help volume loss 6505+ Boss GT100

    I just cleaned all the pots on my 6505+ and it's now its working and I'm able to play it again. Plugged in direct, awesome. Plugged into Bad Monkey into amp, awesome. I then hooked up my GT100 in the 4cm. The way I have it is button one is my 6505+ lead channel brutal distortion boosted with a...

    Which band/artist do you feel needs to hang their hat and call it a day, more than anyone else....be it they need to retire with dignity while they "still got it", or they "don't got it", or you are just plain sick of seeing and hearing about them? I wanted to add Willie Nelson but reached my...

    I need advice what should I do?

    I recently bought a b-stock H&K Grandmeister 40 as some may know, for $800. I like this amp a real lot. It's not as tight as i would like it so it definitely needs TS style boost. I bought this in hopes that I wouldnt need any extra pedals or cables but I do. I want a minimal setup. Otherwise I...

    Cd Ripping Software for Win10?

    It seems with a recent update to Windows 10, they fucked up something on WMP where I cant rip cd's anymore. They changed the web address info and screwed everything up. There used to be a workaround fix for this but they updated again and now the fix wont work. I have cd's that I have to rip...

    NAD: Hughes and Kettner Grandmeister 40 Deluxe (kind of a bummer)

    I bought this for cheap as a B stock item. The only thing I can see is the plastic face has a scratch on it, but thats it. The good: Lightweight -Comes with a carrying bag -Small and compact -Looks beautiful -Making presets is a breeze -Built in effects are good, especially the gate -Good...

    Low vs High Output Humbuckers In A High Gain Setting

    Does a bridge humbucker with lower output into a boosted, high gain amp = more note clarity/definition, for chugs, and chords? Leads? I was thinking about Yngwie and how he has figured out early on (or borrowed the idea from someone) that using low output pickups into a cranked marshall with a...

    Pointy guitars and how they sit on guitar stands

    This is kind of a silly thread but I want to know which non-traditional (strat/lp/rounded bottom) guitars you have sitting in guitar stands, and/or do you just hang them on the wall or put them in a case. I ask because I may want my next guitar to be a Rhoads or something else thats non strat...

    Global agenda(s) from elitists shaping world events

    In the latest Pope heresy thread, I mentioned that pope and jesuits/catholic church is a front for an ancient solar cult, and are the ones pulling the world strings. And that this secret fraternity has been orchestrating deception since day one. All the way from all from all out slaughter of...

    Im looking to polish my chinese turd. I need better tuners. They are 6 in line tuners for a right handed guitar with a reverse headstock. I will include pic. Let me know if i should post more pics if this one isnt good enough/bad angle. They dont need to be locking tuners but they are an option...

    Recommend any vertical/portrait PC monitors??

    I've been interested in seeing if I can buy a vertical monitor for my pc, for viewing pictures and reading (more text on screen). I dont know if they make any fixed vertical ones, i would assume that most or tilt to angle. Size doesn't have to be huge either as obviously since monitors are made...

    Commercial Ukelele Music And Its Effect On People

    I am really good at picking up on trends before most people do. I notice this trend starting at least 10 years ago....the trend that alot of TV commercials uses the same musical formula. The main thing is the soft strumming of the ukelele in 4/4 time (sometimes acoustic guitar), followed by half...

    Hughes and Kettner Grandmeister 40 questions

    I've been looking for a more versatile amp. I love that this one has the ability to switch between the built in effects/different channels. My main concern is playing live; I want as few things as possible such as cables, and different pedals and such. But I am pretty sure I want a tube amp...

    Im so happy to be releasing our first single. My band's name is Fatal Wound. We describe ourselves as blackened/melodic/tech death. Though this song is more straight death than anything, our other songs are have these other elements sprinkled in. We have songs that are closer to black metal...

    Why does no such amp exist? (or does it)?

    On paper to me the Peavey Invective sounds like an amazing setup. Its got a built in boost/gate, midi switching, etc... Something that would make this great amp concept even better, would be of it had built in modulation effects. What I don't want is to have anything in the 4cm with cables...

    Using a floyd equipped axe to record solos, but not use them live?

    Heres my silly situation, I love guitar solos with some whammy wankage as long as its done moderately and tastefully. I dont like KKing type excessive wankage. I like the idea of recording using floyd guitars for solos as i can do dive bombs and dimebag squeals and all that cool stuff. For...
