    Kahler Users - Enlighten Me!

    The Kahler tremolo has always fascinated me for two major reasons. One- I like the idea of a smoother trem feel over the Floyd's rather stiff action; and two- the fact that the Kahler is retro-fittable to almost any guitar I might want to buy means I (potentially) won't have to shop around...

    NGD: Carvin DC800 (I know....but just look!) (56k Koa Explosion)

    Hey, fellow GAS-masters, look what Smitty just picked up! I was skimming around on the bay, putting my Lakewood up for sale, and this little dragon caught my eye. I wasn't really in the market for another 8 string....nor am I a huge fan of Carvin, (nothing against them quality-wise, just not...

    NGD: Black on Black

    The day has finally arrived. My brand new Ibanez RG2228ABK is in my possession, and I couldn't be more than happy. It's been over a year's culmination of research, reviews, and dedicated practice, to lead me to this decision. I view this guitar as the vessel connecting my past 10 years of...

    New bass string sounds balls?

    I would call myself a pretty experienced bassist. I have been playing for six or seven years, but I have never broken a bass string before (until now). It wan't a huge snap, but the string lost tension and started unwinding or something. Its the low B string (130?) and at the time it was tuned...

    Need help! Subject: Bass tuning

    I own an 8 string guitar which I tune E B E A D G B E, and sometimes E B E B E F# B E, If I had a 6 string bass, with thick enough strings, would I be able to maintain the octave ratio of tuning it to E B E A D G, an octave lower than the 8 string guitar is tuned? Basically I'm just...

    String Tension

    I recently purchased an Agile Interceptor 725. It's amazing and feels/sounds great. I had a tune up on it, including an intonation, etc. I was having an issue prior to where dipping the floyd rose would dampen the lower strings significantly more than say the G string. In my long experience with...

    Other strings out of tune when bending?

    Hi all i am a floyd user of 7 years so i understand thoroughly the physics involved with trems. I have however recently blocked my trem fully. Trem stopper, strings clamped down, wood behind the block measured to fit. I have noticed still, that if i pluck my high E for instance, then bend...

    10-46 gauge 7th string?

    Hi all i always used 9-46+62 strings on my Jackson 26.5" scale 7 string guitar. (Standard tuning) I just started using 10-46+64 strings instead. Is the 64 too big? Im using it in standard tuning, but everywhere i look people seem to use 59 and 60 gauge etc for their low B. Am i just...

    First time 7 string buyer

    I'm buying a 7 string in a month or two. It's an older Ibanez Japanese RG model, with SD Blackouts in the neck/bridge and one volume. This is going to sound like a dumb question, but what should I expect? :lol:

    7 String Pickup (Preferably BKP)

    Hi folks. I'd like to get at least a new bridge pickup for my main 7 string and I'd love a Bare Knuckle. I'm really interested in the Aftermath but feel free to put up offers. If I can't find an Aftermath then I'll probably just go with something else because I can't afford $300 worth of...

    "Rattle" on a fresh, low Ab String

    So I just put a nice, fat 80 on my Ibanez for some G# tuning and noticed, that when I play the string open, it has some sort of rattle to it. I can't even make out the location, but it's not your common fret buzzing. Any help? When I play it fretted, the sound is gone. Thanks in advance
