    Shout Out to Voodoo Lab

    I used to deal with John when I used the GCX. He was great to deal with and actually they wound up using my rig in their example diagrams. LOL Although I dont use VL stuff anymore I still have two GCX's, two PP2's, the amp switcher, the original Ground control and also the Pro. That original...

    R.I.P. KEN CZEPELKA -Sound Sculpture

    He finally got to release the E.T. which is exactly what I was hoping for sound wise. He absolutely nailed it in that respect. It was still sort of in its infancy stage with a few things that he was working out. He finally had a usb port but it wasnt quite there yet and something he was actively...

    R.I.P. KEN CZEPELKA -Sound Sculpture

    Man, I just found out that Ken passed I guess sometime in Oct. I was looking to grab another E.T. and havent heard from him which was so unlike him. He was always helpful and his support was top notch. I wonder if anyone is going to pick up Sound Sculpture or if now it rests with him. So...

    My first new Epiphone. Mind blown

    I used to laugh at Epis years ago (admitted snob} until I picked up one a few years ago. That was online and it did take me three guitars to finally get one that was without neck issues, but once sorted it is a really good guitar. Fast forward to recently and I picked up a 61 vibrola SG and holy...

    Got a Brit Floyd backstage tour last night!

    I am going to see them in A.C. NJ. Everyone I know said they put on a great show! Good to hear another good review.

    Experimenting with W/D/W, W/D and Stereo

    W/D/W really shines with 3 separate cabs. You wont really get much more than stereo if your using one split cab. You also need kill dry for the effects cabs BUT, depending on what you like, little bit of dry mixed might work better for you. How are you splitting your signal? Are you using an...

    The Rider is Coming.... Monomyth content.!

    Well the riffs ok... but this is definitely NOT an 80's amp for sure. Waaay too much gain and the bottom end is huge. If I get a chance i'll do another clip with something more modern. Only other amp i've heard with this amount of gain is a Hermannson.

    The Rider is Coming.... Monomyth content.!

    Monomyth 5 GAIN STAGE Prototype circuit. This thing has a SHIT LOAD of gain. The gain on these clips was around 1 o'clock. LOL In the lead clip I tried to show off the sustain this thing has, which is really sick. Effects are an H90 thats not tweaked for this amp but you should get the point...

    Les Paul advice

    So if you really want a Gibby I would not discount some of the older used Studios. Having said that, if someone told me that years ago I would have laughed cause Studios to me were a poor mans Gibson, entry level..etc. and I was definitely an admitted snob about such things. Fast forward and...

    Help. Diezel Amp just quit (update: issue resolved)

    Just to add that when my screen grid resistor went in my Einstein it smelled real bad. You may have dodged a bullet and just need to replace a tube(s) and the fuse. Heres hoping!

    “First of All, There Was No Guitar Player Who Had Ever Played Like That”: Van Halen Producer Ted Templeman Tells ‘GP’ How It All Began

    I know it wasnt his finger but that was my first time I heard "tapping". Randy also did edge tapping. Definitely a different sound using finger vs. pick. I know some guys that use their fingernail also. If it works for them I guess, but I prefer the finger.

    “First of All, There Was No Guitar Player Who Had Ever Played Like That”: Van Halen Producer Ted Templeman Tells ‘GP’ How It All Began

    By Genes own admission he wanted to get them signed. He also paid for the demos they did. I still say his ulterior motive was to try and get Ed in the band. He did ask him and Ed turned him down, but Simmons was starting to get tired of Ace by that point. Funny cause Ace was the first guy I...

    “First of All, There Was No Guitar Player Who Had Ever Played Like That”: Van Halen Producer Ted Templeman Tells ‘GP’ How It All Began

    Yea, according to Teds book he went down to the club where VH were playing but originally someone else was supposed to go. He was blown away and went back to Warner and told them to sign them. I never got why Simmons couldnt get them signed though. He really wanted Ed to join Kiss and made Ace...

    Original Kramer Nightswan

    You guys would have shit if ya saw the factory floor. They had giant barrels full of those pups and so many guys I know used to grab em by the handfuls. They had A LOT of problems with theft. Nice guitar. HNGD!

    What was Uli's rig back in the 70's?

    I know he definitely used a nmv Super Tremolo. I saw him way back in the early 80's and his tone was unreal... Also one of the loudest shows I've ever seen. Sorry thats all I got but he used that head for years!

    Ahhhh, driving with VH

    Yep.. I remember those days. Whats even more bizarre is that in time you'll have to keep up a monthly subscription if you want to autostart your car, locate it..etc. It used to be free when you bought the vehicle. I dont like the fact that they can remotely shut things down without my consent if...
