Funny I came across this article as I was just talking about this topic with my wife last night.

I think the headline really asks a good question, and honestly I feel streaming and more specifically social media is a...

We all know he's more of a studio singer than I've singer so I wouldn't have high expectations of him touring FFs songs. I'd be more interested to hear new music from him...
I picked up an Origin 20 on Craigslist and the cab and an SM57 at Music Go Round. (speaking of MGR for those in Minnesota: I had no idea the Burnsville store closed)
It sounded gnarly with a maxed out Boss OS2 using an SG. It got pretty doomy and sludgy. It has a lot of clarity for cleans with...
I'm curious about who has either customized or modified their regular production guitars to get what they want and who had to order a custom body/entire guitar to get what they want.
Whether it's routing for different pickups, bridges, stuff like that... Not just bolt on mods or...
Kind of shocking to me but I don't follow him that close. Is he going to play strats next?

This NGD is kind of a bucket list 7 for me, a RG7620 in gray nickel. I wasn't looking for one too seriously but this popped up at a price I couldn't refuse.
It sounds like it's set up for the typical Ibanez 5 way wiring which I like. It has a stacked tone pot that I'm guessing is a 500k/200k...
I have a couple NGD's to do... The first one is a 6 string, a birthday gift from my wife. It's an Epiphone SG Standard 61 Maestro Vibrola. (That name is a mouthful lol) I was planning on getting an SG for drop B sludgy/doom-y music and my wife delivered!
I don't know a lot about SG's but I...
I went to a local music store yesterday to look at guitars and played everything through a 5150 Classic. It was the 40 watt 1x12". Holy shit I want one now. Everything I played through it sounded great... A couple of Ibanez 6 strings, an old Squier II hss strat, an Agile 8 string and a Schecter...
@narad's post in another thread got me thinking, who here names their guitars? Like actually names them, whether it's a human name or not.
The closest I get is calling either of my green basses "The Green Bastard" (from parts unknown)
Forgive me SSO for I have sinned.
I have a bunch of RG's that I enjoy, but I fear the one I've grown to like a lot lately has two marks of the beast:
1. Square heel bolt on neck, flat plate like a Fender (no tilt).
2. 22 fret neck.
It's an EX350 from the 80's. I'm working on writing more...
