    RG7 Ash vs Alder (RG752AHM Nebula Green)

    I finally got my Ibanez RG752AHM in Nebula Green. I never imaged I'd buy a green guitar, but it looks great! Love the ash top. Though I've always favored mahogany, this ash guitar might be my new favorite. In my endless quest to find the perfect guitar (yeah right ;) I've tried just about...

    ESP LTD SC 607b?

    Set aside Stephen Carpenters signature right on the fret board I think all the specs make this a pretty solid guitar and I've been fairly interested. I could deal with the signature on the fretboard but what really gets me is I see on some sites say it is made of alder while others say its made...

    Cutting logs to lumber

    Hi everyone, My grandparents just had a couple decently-sized alders taken down on their property. I asked them to hold some for me and now I have a couple of logs that are around 4-5 feet long and 8-12 inches wide (I haven't taken measurements so these are approximate). I'm curious as to...

    NGD: Apex 100 as it should be

    I finally got an alder RG 7 to play with - the Apex 100. After getting it stock, I quickly swapped necks with my RG1527M, then dropped in a white Evo7. This is what the Apex 100 should have been! Looks less like a pawn-shop reject. The Apex 100 sounds great, heavy with a bit more...

    NGD! ESP Horizon Nt7

    I've been a fan of ESP since the day I picked up a guitar, always wanted to own a proper Japanese Horizon, after all the Ltds I had, this was the obvious move. Allow me to make some notes on my experience with this horizon7 so far. The building quality: Top notch, it's the fine mix of...

    Dimarzio D Sonic/Liquifire vs Bare Knuckle Cold Sweat

    I don't know whether I should get a D Sonic/Liquifire set or a Cold Sweat set. I play music that sounds like a mix of Avenged Sevenfold and Crush 40. I have a Seymour Duncan Invader but I'm looking for something that would sound good in an alder bodied guitar with a lower output. Other...

    DiMarzio Crunch Lab in Alder/Maple... bar to which side?

    I just picked up a Crunch Lab / LiquiFire set for my Jackson SL2H (maple neck through, alder wings), and was wondering which way to install the crunch lab (bar to the bridge or neck) for best results. Which do you recommend?

    Re-Refinishing My Squier!! (5pc Alder Content)

    So a few years ago me and my father refinished my Squier (Affinity) Strat aka My First Guitar. It was an awesome bonding experience, but corners were cut, I had 0 guitar building/modification knowledge or skill. But since my dad has a solid woodworking/ handyman background we gave it a shot. We...

    ALEXI-600 meets X2N

    Alder bodied 7 questionmark?

    as my need for a not craptacular 7 increases i have been fiending for an alder bodied 7 and the RG8327 caught my eye. i'm a bit of an esp-o-phile so i'm kinda between the rg and a stephen carpenter baritone. this is all i've seen so far without going custom(kxk maybe?). any other recommendations...

    Anyone else wish there was a solid alder or mahoghany-bodied JP7 besides me?

    I know the BFR JP7 has mahoghany in the body, and although I haven't played one I can bet it plays perfectly if it's like the regular JP7. :agreed: My only gripe with that guitar is the EBMM won't make it in anything other than basswood. I know Petrucci doesn't use mahoghany on his guitars...
