    Personally, I never had a guitar with this Floyd 1000 Series... but I've seen a lot of people talk trash about this bridge...

    How's the fretwork of these SS frets?

    NGD: Parker Fly Deluxe 1998 Emerald Green

    You said the Fly neck is 19.9mm... the Super Wizard is 17mm.

    NGD: Parker Fly Deluxe 1998 Emerald Green

    If you think 20mm is thin, just wait until you play an Ibanez with a Wizard neck. Anyway... how's the neck profile? More of a C or D shape?

    IA Eklundh leaves Caparison guitars.

    Judging by the picture, I bet he's shifting from guitar to hair dye business.

    Has anyone ever put DiMarzio pickups on a Suhr Modern?

    Please let me know when this video is out. I'm deeply interested in your results. Basically 2 concerns: the minor adjusts we need to do, and how good they would sound. So, thank you very much for describing your experience.

    Has anyone ever put DiMarzio pickups on a Suhr Modern?

    I'm about to pull the trigger on (another) Suhr Modern with SSH+/SSV pickups. I had a Modern Satin in the past with these pickups... and I truly hated them. I'm very used to the DiMarzio CrunchLab/LiquiFire combo, and I'm strongly considering putting this set on the upcoming Suhr. But it seems...

    Ibanez AZ Prestige Review

    My only gripe with the AZ is that they look like cheap Strat copies. Other than that, they play great.

    Not happy not so new NGD Mayones duvell elite 6

    Changing the pickups is simple and reversible mod. If you're into dark sounding pickups, I'd recommend the DiMarzio Crunch Lab + LiquiFire combo.

    NGD: A Division of...

    Just to let you know: the Ibanez wiki is not entirely accurate, so don't blindly trust it (and the owner is a complete asshole). As for the guitar, dude, that's an incredible score. Congrats.

    Band members management.... oh the struggles...

    It sucks. It doesn't work for too long. I played in a band where the keyboard player had to move to a city 220 km away. He travelled that distance on a Sunday for one rehearsal, and then gave up. Remote playing simply won't work, there's too much lag involved in the signal transmission. We...

    Ibanez RG1570 vs RG1450 Recommendations

    Same guitar, one with pickguard and other without. This carries a minor difference beyond looks though, which you may or may not notice, depending on how sensitive your fingers are (I do notice). The pickguard is a few millimeters thick, so it raises the guitar surface where you right hand...

    EBMM Petrucci Majesty piezo cutting out when cable is in all the way, but will connect when half-way?

    Every time I see a post like this I remember my 2015 EBMM Majesty, in arctic dream finish. It was really comfy to play live, my only complains were the smallish frets and the unstable neck (maybe that's why the truss rod adjustment is easy to reach). Until it failed me live... in the middle of...

    The 7-string guitar completely replaces the 6-string guitar ?

    You could go with this theory until we have a 1-string guitar. And yes, we could ask for that. However... 6-string guitars are the most common kind, they are everywhere. Keith Richards composed some Rolling Stones songs with a 5-string guitar in open G (G D G B D), and that's all I personally...

    The 7-string guitar completely replaces the 6-string guitar ?

    Because playing a 6 is easier than playing a 7. And here is an evidence for this: back in 2003, Dream Theater started playing Instrumedley, which is a version of The Dance of Eternity (a 7-string song) mixed with hard parts of other songs. It's crazy hard stuff. And despite being a 7-string...

    Portnoy is back in Dream Theater

    Well, everybody knows LaBrie and Portnoy didn't get along very well, Portnoy even criticized LaBrie's vocals... now Portnoy is back, and LaBrie is singing worse than he ever did. Of course, Portnoy is crazy happy to come back after the worst decision of his life, so he'll only say good...
