    25.5 inch Vs 27 inch scale on Solo/Lead

    I'm sorry, I know each guitar forum already has many threads on scale lengths, but I don't find such the amount on lead aspect of things. Everyone knows that the 27 (probably objectively) is better for rhythm, but what happens if you want to also do solos? People say that you get a more...

    Metal with bass as lead instrument - low tuned, low inharmonicity music

    Hi, Any recommendations for bands/solo artists using bass as lead? I already know of artists e.g. Caynug, Niverlare, Extinction Level Event, that use distorted bass, but are there any others that have this type of sound, or maybe use extra-long scale (34"+) guitars? (Winspear I'm looking at...

    General Practice Tips

    So, I've been playing guitar for almost 9 years now, self taught. Only issue is, I am absolutely awful for someone who's played that long. I have a basic understanding of some things, but when it comes to scales/solos/sweeps/any leads and things of that nature, that's when I stumble...okay, not...

    Lead guitar part excerpt video!

    Hi guys, long time no post. As always, I'm open to criticism and tips, how does the mix sound on this one? The mastering always destroys my songs, but I think I'm slowly improving.

    Seymour Duncan Nazgul for lead: Tornado of Souls by Megadeth

    Finally learned one of my favorite solos ever to showcase how killer the Seymour Duncan Nazgul is for leads!!! This pickup is incredible. I'm not really sure how anyone could dislike it, unless you just really love super low output vintage tones. ANyway, playing through my Kemper Profile on an...

    Peavey 6505+ Rhythm vs Lead Channel

    Just a quick comparison. Some people prefer the 6505's rhythm channel with crunch on over the lead channel. Here both channels are boosted with my ts-9. Excuse me butchering Periphery a bunch hahaha. Recorded with my iPhone so sorry if the audio isn't too good.

    How's my lead mix?

    I spent only an hour on the whole mixing/mastering process really, this came together really quickly while I was writing and recording it because I tried playing straight from emotion. How is the lead tone here and what improvements could be made?

    7 string with good access for lead playing

    Hi, Im new around here, just wondered what 7 strings have good access to the high frets, I tried out a Schecter Omen 7 today and an Ibanez RG7321. I found the schecter had a really nice sound but the access past the 19th fret was tricky, the Ibanez was easy to play but felt a bit light and...
