help advice

Here is my problem: It is kind of an awful picture as I have poor lighting so here is a description. My high E string on my LTD JR-208 is not fully seated in the slot. It seems to catch in the slot about 2/3 of the way down, or maybe on the very corner. It hasn't affected my playing, I played...

Hey everyone, got a bit of an odd one here and I think that this forum can help me with it. So a friend of mine has a set of the Fishman Pickups that came out of one of those Epiphone LP Prophecy guitars that he's willing to sell me for what seems like an absolute steal (around $200 CAD)...

I just bought my first 7 string as my first mid-level price guitar. (Ibanez rgd71alms) The overall quality of the guitar is excellent but it has one problems. I noticed that some of the frets end has this weird brownish looking. I search online and have not found any guitar that has the same...

I've decided that I'm definitely going with a 27" or 27-25.5 multiscale 7 string for my next guitar. I just never knew how hard it was to find a 27" 7 string!! It blew my mind when i realized Mayones uses 25.4 as their standard scale for 7's, and I know I could order custom through Mayo, but...

Hi guys! I'm new in the forum. I'm from Argentina, and I play metal in a band called Prognatus. Here is the thing. I've owned an Ibanez RG7620 for 8 years approx, and it's a great guitar, but I got tired of the floyd rose. It's not that it doesn't work, it's that I don't use it. And taking care...

hey y'all, i guess this would be my first thread on here. i searched all over for the last few weeks and can't find anything on the topic, but anyways, i have an iron pewter rg7620 that i've had for a couple years now, and i lent it to a friend for a couple months. upon returning it, i went to...

Hey guys! So here's the story: I play guitar in my room and don't really plan on playing outside of it. I currently have a Line 6 Spidec IV 75 watts and let's be honest - it's not that great. I upgraded my guitar to a Schecter Blackjack SLS a while back, but never got around to upgrading my...

Does anyone know of any alternatives to Thomann in the EU, I live in Malta. I have noticed that although Thomann can sometimes have the best prices, it usually isn't. They put this 'saled' price on an item and show you it's original price (crossed) which usually is way higher and tell you you'll...

Okay, so i got around $1,000 to spend on new gear and im having huge problems to decide what to spend it on. I dont know exactly what i want, i just know that i want something! The dilemma is basically between an amp or a guitar. Currently i have a strat-style hss guitar that i run through a...

After considering changing pickups in an Ibanez Universe, I decided to take another route and move into the world of 8 string guitars. Now I just need to decide which one is the best for me. I would like to keep the cost under $1500 but I would consider going a bit higher for the right guitar. I...

Hello internetland! All my life I have been sitting down with my guitar, and whenever I put on my guitar strap and stand up and play I just can't seem to play as comfortable as oppossed to when I'm sitting down. I have tried every position with my strap, loose and tight, I have tried...

Hey all, My band has recently decided to tune our 7 string guitars and 5 string bass down two whole tones to G. The heaviest string i could find at my local guitar shop was a .068 which it turns out is too big to fit through the hole in my tuning peg. Could anyone recommend me a method to...

I am fairly new to tube amps and do not know a lot about the maintenance of them and stuff. So i am hoping somebody could help me out. I was playing my amp the other day and cranked up the volume. The guitar sound started cutting in and out and then it completely died. I figured it was problem...

I'm really just looking for opinions. The Turbo Rat would come with a power supply, it has the more desired LM308 OPamp, and I've been GASing hard for Rat, but recently fell in love with Turbo Rats. I have a ENO Myomorpha Rat/Turbo Rat clone that I like pretty well, I just kinda want the real...

I have my guitar tuned to C and it's a Ravelle Deluxe. The ( high C I guess it would be?) the one that's the thinnest keeps breaking easily. Last time it broke when I tried to tune it after it had come out of tune and recently it broke again when I unlocked the locking tuner. I checked the nut...

When I say Rig, I pretty much mean a better setup to what I have now Currently I have a LTD 350NT and a old Crate GT65 amp Pedalboard- Boss Noise Suppressor, TC Polytune mini (Noir), AKG mini wireless and a Fuel Tank Chameleon to power it. So I've joined my first band and with starting to play...

Hey guys, I'm a noobie on here but i figured id ask everybody's opinion on this subject. This is more of a personal question tbh but I'm loving the axe fx right now and I'm certain to purchase one. however i don't have steady income the price of the 2 will no doubt take me a very long time to...
