    Thanks! Metalhead mods can be inconsistent but this is one of the good ones. Definitely a keeper!

    Who has been to the House of Guitars in Rochester NY?

    I haven't been but now I really want to! I'll probably hit HOG up when we play out there next month, I try to stop whenever I'm in the area.

    Buxom Boost

    I've been wondering about this myself, thinking about picking up a different boost for my '71 Marshall but I don't want to get something that is too honky or cuts too much bass.

    Upcoming albums you're pumped for?

    If it's anything like that song they released with Reinert drumming it's going to be killer. Total throwback to the Human-era stuff.

    ELAN MK-5 DINO PREAMP - Opinions?

    Don’t do it! :lol: :LOL: I have a Metalhead modded 800 that I absolutely love so I took the chance when these were released. I figured “How different could it sound?”. It doesn’t sound anything like the amp and now I have a paperweight with tubes. The concept is really cool, it’s a shame it...

    Soldano Hot MOD incoming. *UPDATE*

    I had a Hot Mod in my old 2204 for a while. It added tons of gain but (as mentioned above) was noisy. I lost some of the range on the gain knob too, it went from zero into high gain territory pretty quick. I ended up going back to using a boost. It sounded better to my ears (I prefer a...

    The most INEXPENSIVE rig you would gig....

    I gigged with this setup for over 10 years playing death metal: Ampeg SS140C head (built in stereo chorus and reverb) $250 Ampeg SS412ES cab with G12T-75s- $250 Boss NS-2- $40 Or I could sub in my Crate Stealth 50 watt head and still keep it cheap.

    Can't seem to find a bridge pickup I love in my SG

    I have a Bareknuckle Aftermath in my SG Custom tuned to drop B / C# standard. I really like it, seems pretty balanced and doesn’t get too dark. Upgrading the pots and wiring helped a bit, I bought a pre-built harness with 550k pots and that helped give me a little more brightness as well.

    Looks great! I have an Aftermath in my SG and love it, lots of output but really balanced.

    Oh hell yeah! Bidding now!

    Someone needs to message him and ask what identifies it as a genuine Criss Oliva pick :lol: :LOL:

    Chinese 12AX7s, which ones and where?

    I picked up 3 Shuguang 12AX7Bs on eBay. I had one fail instantly but the other 2 sounded awesome, they were cheap enough that it was worth taking the risk.

    Played an SG after years of not playing one. Great guitar!!

    I love my ‘72 SG Custom, it always blows people’s minds when they see it being used in a death metal band. :lol: :LOL: I originally searched it out because late 60’s/early 70’s Gibsons have a narrower nut width that I like. I was missing one of the original Tarback pickups so I threw a...

    Splawn Amps

    :lol: :LOL: I had an older Nitro that I always thought had "weird mids". Didn't sound at all like the clips of other Splawns I heard before I bought it.
