    Our Eddie Van Halen Jose Arredondo load box video went viral

    Honestly I was never that into the EVH stuff to answer your question correctly but I will ask Mark and post the answer here in a day or so along with anyone else who has questions. What I do know is by VHII he was using those power amps and I believe the load bx went away but like I said I will...

    Our Eddie Van Halen Jose Arredondo load box video went viral

    So Mark Cameron and I made a video for someone here showing how Eddie Van Halen used a Jose load box. This load box was made by Jose Arrendondo and I believe was one of three. This was discussed in detail by Mark Cameron on the old Metro Amp forums many years ago but no one has ever made a clip...

    What upgrades for a MIM Strat

    Best upgrade for that guitar is sell and buy an old Japanese Fernades or Tokai Strat. :lol: :LOL: Seriously if everything is working fine, as in staying in tune, just experiment with different pickups. You don't want to start investing big money into upgrading all the hardware etc. because...

    Charvel Custom Shop, Luxxtone, Friedman, Iconic

    I just saw this thread but are you seriously considering a Charvel custom shop? Read my post on the Jackson Kelly thread about the shitshow dumpster fire that became of the Jackson Charvel custom shop. Now if you find an already made custom shop Charvel that's ready to go and you like it...

    Thoughts on IIC+ DRG

    If you don't mind could you share your clean channel settings? Also what tubes? I think your clips of the IIC+ are one of the better ones out there on Youtube. I think it also proves a good sounding amp comes through fine on a decent cell phone cam without needing mics, mixing board etc. :rock:

    ESP USA M-I Deluxe SOLD

    Look at the Ebony TJ, it's actually black. Seriously I would be all over this but just not a fan of how the pickup is mounted, not that there is anything wrong with that, I'm just not a fan. It actually reminds me of the ESP Cantrell used in one of the early AiC videos. :rock:

    ESP USA M-I Deluxe SOLD

    That's awesome, these later 90's USA ESP custom shops were magical. I wish I had the cash I would be all over this. ETA: I guess it's a 2019 but either way awesome. :thumbsup:

    Jackson Kelly questions

    Thanks for agreeing TJ. Seriously I remember after three screw ups in a row and one rebuild they finally let me talk to one of the Jackson custom shop employees directly. Also everything I requested was on the spec sheet and I never requested changes after the order. I was told back in the...

    That dude Reza's videos

    You make a point but ultimately he is posting clips that are not being used in a band type recording. So dial it in so the amp sounds good by itself, it's not like it takes hours to do. Why dial in an amp to leave room for other instruments when you're not posting them with the other...

    Jackson Kelly questions

    Don't buy any new Jacksons especially from the custom shop. Their Ebony sucks and isn't black anymore, they also won't let you supply your own wood. Also the way the custom ordering process works they will screw up your order guaranteed. I've gone through it five times and each one got f'd up...

    WTB: Bogner Fish

    Try to find one with the Cantrell mod on it, I'll be honest I've owned three Fishes and overall was unimpressed except for the one I have now. Early 90's with factory Cantrell mod. Not selling it either. 1c1kBbU_k3M

    Cantrell/Hetfield amp recommendation - modded Marshall tone

    Something about 50 watts and that original Bogner straight "Cantrell" circuit that just do go together: -nTMLkwPF-I

    That dude Reza's videos

    All my personal dealings with Reza were nothing but positive so I won't say anything bad about him, he even tried to help me get a rare ESP off of Craigslist a number of years ago. I just don't like how his amp clips sound, he seems to have all this expensive equipment to mic and record...

    How do you like to hear amps demo'd online?

    Watch my channel and tell me if there is a bad sounding clip, 90% is all iPhone. I find that iPhone records best what an amp sounds like in a room in person. Link is in my signature below.

    Does anyone here build guitars or know a pro luthier?

    Problem is there is no more good woods left anymore thanks to China and their demand for knock off antique furniture. Most guitar manufacturers today are having a hard time finding Ebony that's black, Maple that's dry without having to "bake" it,...etc :no:

    I made a replica of Jerry Cantrell's AiC Dirt touring rack

    By the way I forgot to thank you all for the compliments and... Yes that is Mark playing. Was just messing with the midi footswitch trying to program it this week.

    Help me Identify this Guitar Please!

    I don't know much about the Traditional Gibon models from that time frame but that truss rod cover sets off all kinds of red flags to me.
