    Back to the 70's Grand Illusion Solo STYX

    Pretty close! His Wah tone had much more q or resonance (with the Fractal Wah) and I believe the frequency was a bit lower. I believe Tommy Shaw used Hiwatt amps and JY used Marshalls and they both had a custom preamp that they called the Yoshinarato which is a preamp/distortion unit which...

    Metro/Friedman with 6ca7 clips

    Thanks, I used a Warmoth custom Strat with a PRS 59/09 on the bridge and a WCR Goodwood on the neck. I used an MXR 10 band eq with mild frown face eq curve, an EP101 cranked all the way and for a bit more gain for solos I use an OCD. The Metro/Friedman had everything on 10 with a voltage regular...

    Fractal FX8 has landed!!!

    I used a Humdinger in the Fx loop of the amp, but my hum issue wasn't as bad but it got rid of it. I also used an ISP Decimator G string for the front end of the amp and plugged the Axe Fx 2 into the in and out of the Decimator then my guitar into the Decimator and the out into the front end of...

    Suhr Reactive Load Vs Two Notes Vs Rockcrusher

    I've been using the Aracom Dual Rox with dual with foot switchable lead and rhythm volume for over 3 years. I also use it as a load for running my amps into a power amp and it sounds great. I've used many including the Two Notes Torpedo Reload, Ultimate attenuator and many other ones. The Aracom...

    Favorite Guitar Speakers/Cabs?

    I just have 2 Marshall 1960B, a Scumback Marshall 1960B replica(my best one because is built with late 60"s specs) cabinets and a 2x 12 custom cabinet. The Scumback Marshall 1960B replica is loaded with 4 different Scumback speakers so I can have different options when I record.I'm using 2...

    I suck at lead - where do I begin

    Use a click track and start slowly building your speed, don't speed up the tempo until you have the the notes perfect. I also helps if you play along with drum loops. Try to keep your fingers as close as possible to the fret board, to much distance before you fret a note, can be a waste of...

    Gojira

    I love The way of the Flesh. The drummer is insane and they have a crushing guitar tone. Is quite refreshing that they don't really do guitar solos, just very interesting riffing with precise squealing! My son turned me on to them!

    Scumback m75/h75 vs. Celestion G12m-65/G12h-75?

    I love my Scumback speakers! My current favorite are the BH75 and the M75 and they sound amazing together. I bought many different Celestions and the only ones that sounded as good were my old 1970 Greenbacks and Cream backs that were loaded into 2 1970 Marshall cabs. I sold all my V30's and the...

    VH Feel Your Love and Metro/Friedman 68' all on 10 slaved

    ]Well I don't have a 10 band, but for shits and grins I tried your advice with a standard black MXR 6 band with the slight smile curve. Good call! The 6 band will work but there's something about lowering the 500Hz, 1 kHZ and 2 kHz that the 6 band doesn't have but you can try by first setting...

    VH Feel Your Love and Metro/Friedman 68' all on 10 slaved

    Well I just got it back...WOW. Just WOW. Just an amazing amp. It's so bizarre how responsive it is to different pickups -- I have a Motor City Angel Dust (which is 14.4k output I think?) and it's almost too gainy! Right now I'm just loading it down into a HotPlate and slaving it to a power amp...

    Any suggestions on which Suhr pickups to buy?

    Looks interesting I wonder what's the DC resistance on them?
