This is exactly what is different about the disc. To me, each and every disc shows growth. Yes, Adam still uses drop d all the time, and yes he basically uses the same themes each time, but its his fingerprint. What makes each disc better than the last is the fact that they are able to up the...

I use the QSC everyone raves about. It took me a while to get past it sounding "different" than my 4x12 (when listening to my Tool patch), but when I compared the tones as they blended with the band, any perceived "harshness" (not the best word) wasnt a problem. Listening to it by itself had...

I stayed away from the threads/hype for about 2 years. After all that time I was convinced that I needed nothing more than my Herbert. Thing is, I am trying to do Adam Jones' guitar parts/sound and the Herbert/G System could get me reasonably close, but not as close as I wanted. Being able...

I never really gave them much of a chance. I always thought of the singer as ripping off Eddie Vedder... not really avoiding the grunge thing, like you mentioned. I guess we all have different ears.

You must have an awesome dust extraction system... unless you tidy up prior to taking pictures. I have pounds of dust flying when I get to whittlin'.

Looks "tippy". I bet you'll have to nail that sucker down.

I went through a ton of strings searching for the right one when I first got my Taylor. You'll be able to tell the difference between makers, so you might want to throw both sets of the new strings on that Taylor and forget about comparing it to the Martin. Martins and Taylors are inherently...

Ty Tabor, for me. Check out his solo in Pretend (Dogman). That thing is greasy and :rock:

This picture leaves almost NOTHING to the imagination. And I dig it! :rock:

Ed, Do you set the Axe up differently for each output? Or does the FOH get the same signal as your cab?

Just wondering... did you get a chance to upload those sounds?

This thread lead me down the path... *damn you all* Phase one was yesterday: Picked up the Boss foot controller with the 2 expression pedals (the way I intend to use the Axe, the Boss will fill just fine) (getting it used and saving about 125 bucks didnt suck either) Phase two was two hours...

Old thread bump... (I wonder how many people read the whole thing again before they bust me?) I'm on the way to buying the same set up. Ultra + QSC and wanted to see if the OP still feels the same as when he was initially geeked. Any and all thoughts are welcomed, but keep the "you...

might be a silly question: If Cliff charges the same as Tone Merchants for the AxeFx, wouldn't Cliff get MORE money in his pocket by cutting out the middle man? Nothing against TM, but I would rather see the money go to the brains.

And while my curiosity is piqued: How quiet is it? I've got a Diezel Herbert that has plenty of that high gain hiss. I'd love to have a rig that was as quiet as a mouse.

Oh... I meant to ask. When changing patches/channels on the Axe is there any latency issues? I had a ZenTera right when it came out and that was the reason its gone.

I know nothing of the Axe other than the posts I've read (never checked the website). I saw the list of amps and saw an Ampeg SVT on there? Does that mean I can plug my bass in there and have it sound like a bass? I've avoided the gas successfully by not reading too much. But it sounds...

My drummer is friends with Kyle. I've met him more than a few times, but we dont hang out or anything. The last time I saw him he brought out a Frankenstrat that he'd just finished. The body seemed a very accurate representation, but that neck just didnt feel right to me. I didnt plug it in...

How did that neck come out? Was it unfinished and sort of rough? Fretwork? Thanks!

I have a pretty decent bass rig. I'm that guy who couldnt take my bass player showing up with a 1x15 combo with a blown speaker and a $200 Yammy that he's had since high school, and clearly he wasnt about to change that. When a deal presented itself I jumped on it and now he uses my rig 100%...
