    Annoying audience members

    I always tell them "sorry, but we can only use people in the union."

    Metal guys using passive PUs ‘?’

    DiMarzio Norton, so around 12. No boosts, just amp gain, and less gain than you'd think. I can get a fairly clean crunch from close miking and technique. Too much gain and boost ends up too muddy for me when I record. Typically mahogany w/ maple bodied guitars.

    Slo-Blow for main power fuse?

    A friend brought his new-to-him Peavey XXX head over last night and as we were going through it, he pulled the fuse and immediately dropped it. D'oh. The thing I found odd (after looking the part up on the google box) was that it was a fast blow. I double checked with the fuses in my Mesa and...

    The overly compressed tone of YouTube guitarists

    https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/1722171 In the current upload settings, YouTube is asking for 384kbs for stereo audio uploads. That's on par with the current MP3 technology albums are released at. But, it stands to reason that they scale the audio quality along with the video...

    The overly compressed tone of YouTube guitarists

    If I can hear the string noise in the clip, I don't feel like I can really trust what the amp sounds like. But I'd recommend trying to listen in one of the HD settings. There's a pretty drastic difference in the audio quality between the 480p and 720 or 1080.

    Poll...BEST SOUNDING 50 watt tube head - lowest cost

    I've always had a soft spot for my 1st Gen Single Rec. But it's a recto, so you sort of have to dig rectos.

    Good, Not-too-Pricey Earplugs - Suggestions

    https://www.amazon.com/Etymotic-Fidelit ... DEESS?th=1 I've used these ER-20 earplugs for years. I've been very happy with them. I replace them every year or so.

    James Hetfield has a new KL Explorer

    I'd like to claim credit, but they posted it as a caption under the photo on the Metallica website. I've heard that Ken joked that he hopes that he doesn't get 100 requests for guitars made from old garages. AFAIK, this is the best photo that exists of the guitar. The previous photo was less...

    My Crappy Experience with Kiesel Guitars

    It's unfortunate that he has the exact same name as the guy who runs the company he's complaining about. What are the odds?! I custom ordered a guitar almost 18 months ago, and I remember everything I asked for in the specs. And I haven't even seen a photo of the build in over a year! I don't...

    I bought an inexpensive used E-II Eclipse. There were a few things I thought could have been nicer (chipped inlay, string slots all shifted toward the high E on the nut) but by and large, it feels more like my ESP Standard Eclipses than any EC-1000 I've played. Probably not a custom shop...

    KSR Gemini vs Orthos vs Ares

    C standard for that one. Thanks man, no where near as tight as you are, but we're sort of a sleazy dirty thrashy thing. Mostly because we're not very good. :lol: :LOL:

    KSR Gemini vs Orthos vs Ares

    I think it's essentially half-Gemini, half-Colossus. I have a clean channel (that the Fusion guy uses in his demo) and the two lead channels from the Colossus, but with the shaping ability of the Gemini. And the crunch channel (ch 2) of the Colossus is actually hidden in the lead 2 channel. But...

    KSR Gemini vs Orthos vs Ares

    I bought based on GSXR's videos, too. I went Artemis II, just based on my effort to keep gig setup simple. Very happy with the amp and Kyle was awesome to work with.

    ESP Eclipse PUP Recommendations

    The JB/59 combo is the other stock option. I've gone with a Norton/36th Anniversary PAF combo in a few, but the Norton is too low mid focused for some.

    The righty. I couldn't afford to be a lefty. :lol: :LOL: Yeah, if you're an ESP fan, it's a great group to be in. All guitar, not much nonsense.
