    Need advice on a string gauge?

    I use 11-54's on my C Standard guitars and they feel roughly equivalent to a 9-46 in Standard tuning, so you're probably fine going down to B with 12s.

    vintage strat build- bridge suggestion

    The Callaham is a great bridge, but I prefer the Gotoh 510. Both play and sound great, but the trem feel is much nicer overall on the Gotoh between the way the trem arm loads and the angled design of the block that gets you a bit more arm travel on dives.

    What new boost should I try?

    +1 on the Koko. I'm not a pedal guy at all but I've always got mine on the board no matter what amp I'm playing - from a Fender Twin to a Plexi to a VHT or Friedman. As versatile as anything I've ever used.

    2x12 vs 4x12

    I keep a Port City 2x12 around to travel with since it's much easier to move (and sounds a lot closer to a 4x12 than most others I've tried), but that being said 4x12's always sound way better IMO.

    Good 1x12's??

    To me, the Port City is the king of the 1x12s. I've had the Mesa, Bogner and Avatar and none of them compare.

    Who here has several guitars and amps but is not in a band?

    I haven't played in a band in years. Wish I could but I really just don't have the time - work keeps me on the road more often than not, and whenever I'm back home I'm usually busy catching up. Have an incredible gear collection now. Ironic - back a few years ago when I had all the time in the...

    Behringer Buys Out TC Electronics: End Of An Era

    Behringer seems to be leaving their acquisitions alone so far. Midas and Turbosound are still putting out fantastic products.

    Kemper vs Two Notes Live/Reload...Wat do?

    I think it all comes down to how much time you want to spend tweaking around with profiles and settings, etc. If you're the type of player that wants to plug into a great sounding head, dial in the tone you're looking for and play, the Torpedo is pretty much a magic bullet and will take most of...

    Leslie simulators... Which do you like best?

    Neo Ventilator is the closest I've found to a real leslie cab. That said, my favorite vibe far and away is the Effectrode.

    breaking strings... When did it stop happening ???

    Funny, when I started playing (Squier Strat) I would break a string every few days. Now, I honestly don't think I've broken a string in over 10 years. Agree with everyone else, it's a combination of better equipment and better technique.

    Fantastic tone man. No replacement for a cranked amp.

    Check out the Source Audio Programmable EQ. Sounds great and gives you some added versatility with the option to have presets.

    What wah do I want?

    Snag a used RMC3 off of ebay. There's one up right now at $99, probably won't go for more than $150 tops.

    Anyone here own a Soldano Hot Rod 25?

    Interested in this as well - really want to play one of these but haven't been able to find one in the wild. Might just have to bite the bullet and get one, definitely would like to hear what others think...

    What to upgrade my triple recto to?

    Have you tried a voltage regulator? I noticed for a while that my amps would sound like crap when I plugged into them at random times, but consistently after getting home from work - later found out that the voltage off the wall socket was way lower around that time than usual. Added a regulator...

    Had to sell all my gear, now what? Best small amp/software?

    Grab an Eleven Rack. You can get one for under 300 these days if you look around a bit.
