    Annoying signal chain issue ?

    Hi everyone, I have a problem. Option A: if I go guitar>ns2>eq>TS>Peavey6505 it sounds great (aside from an annoying ground loop issue that should be fairly easy to fix). Option B: if I go guitar>eq>TS>ns2>Peavey6505 it sounds horrible. It is so shrill that it gives me a headache and makes...

    Push/Pull stuck in pull position

    Hey all, Last night at band practice the push/pull knob on my guitar got stuck in the out position, I'm able to push it in, but it immediately pops back out. Has anyone had a similar problem and have any ideas on fixing it? Or should I just take it to a tech? I'd definitely like to have my...

    Cheap Floyd Problems.

    A haiku. Wanted a Kelly Floyd Rose caused many problems Now, I want to sell. Dealing with this cheaply made FR has left a bad taste in my mouth. First attempt at a setup, I stripped a locking nut screw. Fine, order some cheapo saddles and wait two weeks. Boom. Watch Deadpool 2, swap saddles...

    Quality control issues on a Jackson Pro Series Soloist

    I finally received an amazing Jackson Pro Series Soloist SL2Q HT MAH It's an awesome machine, it sounds probably better than each of the 15 guitars I have owned through the years.

    ISP Decimator volume drop?

    So today I picked up an ISP Decimator G-String (the original one, not the II.) Got it for free so I can't complain, seems to do a decent job of eliminating preamp gain-induced hiss. The problem is, using the Decimator in the loop results in a noticeable drop in volume vs having nothing in the...
