Hey guys, I'm not happy with the tones i am getting and i am sure i have mismatched components. I just made a Warmoth Strat, with Walnut body, Satin finish and the neck and fingerboard are all ebony. I know this is a bright instrument to begin with. So i got Injector Neck/Area 67 Mid/PAF 36th...

I can't find a comparison list of effects available on the AX8 and FX8. I own a Marshall JVM410h and while i'd like to run 4CM with the head, for gigging i'd rather just carry a floor unit. I could also get away with running the AX8 for fx only in the loop, but concerned about tone suck. Is...

So any early buyers ? Want one for 4CM fx with my JVM410H. Also for rare fly gigs for a portable floor solution. I could do Fractal FX8, but then my fly rig would suffer; could do AX8 but fx and 4CM would suffer. Helix seems to have best features for me......but i never liked any Pod!!!

Considering an FX8 for 4CM with my Marshall JVM410H. I currently use a GSP1101, while not bad, its not stunning either. While the FX are ok, i don't find the drive sounds to be very natural sounding. I do like to push the front end of my amps set for mild OD and then boost with drive. I was...

Really interested in buying one of these. Love the concept of the dual engines and presets. But i i have read reports of it being dead on arrival or malfunctioning or dying. Have these quality control issues been taken care of ? Its still in production and the demo's sound so nice. I had a TC...

A friend of mine is willing to sell his American Standard Strat (Black, Maple fretboard, 2009 ). It is in flawless condition with the SKB case. He bought it brand new from Steve's Music in Canada. He is expecting to fetch US$1800 for it from Canada or the US as he feels that Strats appreciate...

I'm looking to order a custom LP type guitar from Wild Custom Guitars in France. Its their version of a Les Paul. It'll be Mahogany Body, Carved Maple top, Mahogany Neck, Ebony board and Bare Knuckle Pickups. I have always played guitars with non locking tremolo bars for some gentle movement...

Dan has finished modding my JVM410h. He sent me short video clips made on an iPad. It gave me chills. Dan rocks. I can't wait! Will post detailed hi quality clips :) :rock: Thank you Dan Gower!!!! :)

DarrCooper simply rocks!! :thumbsup: I live in Pakistan and had my friends buy a JVM410H from him in the UK. Because i dont have payal in my country, i was dependent on my friend's schedules and they delayed payments a few times. Darren was most understanding, patient and a thorough...

So i have been eyeing an Edwards John Sykes model. It is very affordable, ebony fretboard and i can swap out the parts and pickups if needed. It would cost me under a grand. or....i could tap into my saving and purely out of lust buy a Les Paul Standard with one of those gorgeous tops. But i...

Was chatting with Slavek from 4rockers. Search for his mods. They sound fantastic. My JVM410h was headed to him but logistically a Dan Gower mod was easier to buy. I shall still send an amp to Slavek some time as his work is top notch and he is just an amazing guy to talk to! Google 4rockers...

Dan Gower modded JVM410h incoming in a few weeks......excited. What should i expect ? Exchanged a few emails and he is one cool guy! Faisal

Finally have drawn the courage to ask this question, given there are so many threads on so many forums on this. I have a 5150 Halfstack, JMP-1 Preamp, GSP1101. I have a home studio, i rarely play out and when i do i just take the GSP1101 for convenience. However at my home and in the studio i...

I am getting a good deal on the above mentioned guitar. The two main attractions i have towards this guitar are the reinforced headstock joint at the back of the neck, and the ebony fretboard. I am in the hunt for a modern versatile LP type guitar with tons of sustain. I like the ESP as i know...

Am not sure if Steve Stevens was on Billy Idol's Cyber Punk record, but the guitar riff in Concrete Kingdom is my favourite rock rhythm tone.... Any idea what amp is being used ??? www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNvKsCc0hSc
