I've kept mine. They still good for lessons and articles about certain artists, their gear etc.

Nice work. Awesome fucking song and guitar work.

Do looks really matter though?

It's not that surprising when you think about it. Bar none thee heaviest sounds in guitar history are from EVH and Hendrix. As Ed says "till it sounded like they were dying then back it off". It still sounds like that. ADKOT is a very heavy guitar tone, very heavy. Some of its' tone is...

Fugly.

Yeah but I don't really care if they're successful or not. I get that modified Marshall's are great but what year were those Marshall's? I doubt they could recreate those amps, and if they could then anyone else could too. And why do we have to keep modding them anyways? I mean for decades they...

Maybe it doesn't matter since so many guys can build these amps anyway. It ain't rocket science. Tube amp makers all over the place.

Good point.

I can see that too but what about you and your performance? As in it should sound good to you too so you play your best, inspired by awesome tone. Not saying it can't be achieved this way, maybe have both?

Ever notice for the main riff in VH's Pretty Wpmen, the bass plays along with the guitar until the last note? It makes the riff sound extremely heavy but then allows for the last sustained note to be on its' own for clarity. It's a great idea and quite effective. I also wonder in some songs with...

My band has no concept of this even through repeated explanations, articles, forum posts etc. The bass player and drummer share singing duties and during sound check they always want more bass on their vocals. So I give it to them during sound check then take it away. Similarly my bass player...

Come on, they seem like nice enough fellows. It's just a conversation.

I thought this had to be done at the border and/or at least before UPS deliver it to you?

You find out after you buy what the percentage is, by then it's too late. How it's based on the price of the package I'll never know, brokering is just paper work, whether it's a paper clip or a diamond the process is the same. Sellers often state, now, that they're not responsible for whatever...

I stopped using UPS and Fedex years ago because of this. I only buy from US sellers that offer USPS. Never had an issue with USPS or CPS. Brokerage fees are a total scam.

But he never mentioned their name did he? A number of guitarists dissed him when he first came on the scene, I think he was pissed at that.

Everytime I play a non-floyd I'm constantly reaching for the bar that's not there.

Our band just bought a used PA. It's a powered board with 2 mains and 2 monitors, all passive speakers. What I'm hoping to achieve is 2 monitor mixes so I need either a small amp or a powered speaker. Is it possible to get either of those on the cheap?

Another way is to find a song that is somewhat comparable to your riff and see what progression that song uses.

Indeed suffer for your art. It's not easy to do but I admire them that do but it's not for everyone and it's very difficult to stick to your guns with all that corporate pressure. I think that's what EVH was trying to do for Allan, somehow make his stuff more commercial but just so he could make...
