    Modeler for practice/gigging

    Once you get the workflow, they're all pretty easy these days...I use an FM3. You mentioned cheap, portable and feels like an amp...for Marshall-y tones, all the atomic modelers sound and feel fantastic. Their ui is a little limited and they don't really get updated, but they're a cheap way to...

    Crazy how different an amp sounds in different rooms

    Honestly, this is the main reason my band now prefers modelers and IEMS for gigs...at least it's consistent in our ears, the sound guy can worry about the rest.

    Are real amps on stage becoming a thing of the past?

    With my cover band, i switched to a modeler about 3 years ago and then we all went iem last year...I’ll never go back to amps for gigs. Sounds great, convenient and consistent. I’m using an Fm3 and ps170 mounted on a pedal train; split the signal to FOH and a 2x12 for a little stage volume for...

    Celestion Neo Creamback

    Awesome, glad it worked out, Im using mine with a Fm3 modeling rig, so its pretty simple to eq them to taste. Mine are mounted in a port city 2x12os...shockingly light for its size.

    Celestion Neo Creamback

    I use them in my gigging 2x12…a tad crispier than my fav M75s, but worth it for the weight savings.

    In praise of the DiMarzio Area 58 and Area 67 pickups

    I've had various areas in my gigging guitars through the years...they really do sound great. For a superstrat with a bridge humbucker, the Heavy Blues 2 has become my fav neck single coil. It's got a little more girth that balances well with the bridge p/u. Cleans are a little hot compared...

    Suhr humbuckers

    What about a 78? I had a ssv+ in a suhr alder classic antique and hated it...plink plink plink. The above clips sound great though so you never know. This thread also reminds me that the V60lp is one if my fav neck single coils, I need a new strat for one lol.

    Cables: Which Are 'Clearest'?

    I’ve got a Planet Waves American Stage that is very clean/bright. I actually prefer the cheaper Classics that roll off a little top end lol.

    Which pick guard looks best? ** UPDATE **

    I use those saddles and think they do help tuning, but don't tighten them down too far. Also I need a couple replacement screws and they're not the easiest thing to find locally (at least for me)...they're 3x5mm flanged button heads.

    SL67 full bore into a PS2 is absolute perfection for me. I'm too lazy to gig with it (FM3 is good enough) but there's nothing else like it imho.

    2204 and Timmy

    I have the MXR version as well, sounds great. Although I’ve realized I need to upgrade to a full size version, those little knobs are a pain in the ass lol.

    OMFG White Lion is stuck in my head…

    I love all their albums…I never listen to the lyrics so they never bothered me lol. Lady of the Valley is still one of my faves.

    1969 Super Lead and PS100

    Boom, there it is. I finally went all in on a SL67, ps2 and a couple drive pedals for flavor...nothing else feels as good under the fingers.

    Guthrie Govan Charvel

    I have the ash version, amazing guitar. My only complaint is the delicate finish...it‘s my main gigging guitar and I’ve already rubbed through to raw wood in several spots.

    Was EVH using his old trusty Marshall still in 1985?

    And even with a Power Station, a healthy volume is still such a large part of the recipe...god I love it so.

    Was EVH using his old trusty Marshall still in 1985?

    Ha after reading about the variac for years when I finally tried it, my first thought was…”wow, that’s still really fucking loud.”
