    Jvm410h vs Triaxis/Simul class 2 ninety

    Yeah, if you ever end up over 5 on the bass, you're either doing something terribly, terribly wrong, or have lost your hearing entirely. The whole Mesa Mark series (and the TriAxis as well) really needs a post EQ. And I think that's why so many of the heads/combos have an EQ built on the front...

    Jvm410h vs Triaxis/Simul class 2 ninety

    +1 for the adding an EQ to the TriAxis rig. I had a TriAxis and 2:90 rig for years. I moved from it because I was looking for something more modern sounding.

    Kirk Hammett slips and falls over his wah pedal

    Not to defend Kirk, but here's a video showing the weather at the show from a bit earlier in the set. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxO6PvlFsDp/ Seeing the water splash off the cymbals was impressive.

    What's with the World Music factory these days?

    But at what price range? (when new) There may be some issues with the higher dollar range Indo guitars, but I suspect any factory can make better guitars if you throw enough money into it. I expect a $200 made in China guitar to be garbage, but I would expect a $1000 guitar from China to be as...

    What's with the World Music factory these days?

    The senior VP of ESP USA chirped in on their forum a few months ago and said it was a way to maintain the cost level of the instruments. The Korean factory was getting too pricey. While I have no practical experience with the Indonesian 1000 level LTD guitars, I have read more complaints about...

    Have you ever "upgraded" your gear because of a female?

    The ladies swoon when they see that all my pedals are true bypass.

    NGD: ESP Snakebyte & Vulture

    Yeah, they started doing that on the Truckster model (I think they've changed the logo slightly since the Truckster, though.) I didn't look closely enough at the logo on my old Truckster to notice what it was made from, but I always assumed it was a plastic. Wiz would know better than I because...

    Show your rigs!

    Step 1 is to try not to think about it too much.

    Pedals vs. Racks in 2018

    I went rack to make it easier for me while playing. I want to focus on the performance and the tap dance of pedals takes me out of it. I can just hit one button for sound changes and continue on my way. My rack is fairly simple, as are my sounds, so YMMV.

    Metal guys using passive PUs ‘?’

    DiMarzio Norton, so around 12. No boosts, just amp gain, and less gain than you'd think. I can get a fairly clean crunch from close miking and technique. Too much gain and boost ends up too muddy for me when I record. Typically mahogany w/ maple bodied guitars.

    Slo-Blow for main power fuse?

    A friend brought his new-to-him Peavey XXX head over last night and as we were going through it, he pulled the fuse and immediately dropped it. D'oh. The thing I found odd (after looking the part up on the google box) was that it was a fast blow. I double checked with the fuses in my Mesa and...

    The overly compressed tone of YouTube guitarists

    https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/1722171 In the current upload settings, YouTube is asking for 384kbs for stereo audio uploads. That's on par with the current MP3 technology albums are released at. But, it stands to reason that they scale the audio quality along with the video...
