    What's the consensus on the mesa JP-2C sig head?

    I had my Triaxis repaired by Mesa and have fallen in love with the Mark sounds all over again. It has me curious about the JP-2C, mostly, because I think that heads sound better than pre amps + power amps (just something about the low end and the umph), plus it has midi, which is critical to my...

    Is anyone still using a Win 7 machine as their DAW?

    I have a Win 7 machine that bought a few years back with the intent that it would be my DAW, but then quit my band and have never gotten around to doing anything with it (it literally has been turned on maybe five times). I would like to start messing around with it, but at this point I know...

    Pickups for mahogany body with maple top

    I have an Ibanez RG2020 that I put a JB/59 set in years ago and while it sounds good, isn't my favorite. I have numerous Alder body guitars that I have Dimarzio Super Distortions that just rip, but I'm not sure how they would sound in a mahogany body. I'm really looking for a slightly hotter...

    Bogner Red pedal questions

    I remember really like the clips of these from a few years back, but never bought one. Most of the clip, they were run through a Fender clean channel, which sound fantastic. My issue is that I don't have anything with a great clean channel that could be used as a base platform. I do have a...

    Dunlop Auto Return Wah question

    So I have an old Bad Horsie wah that finally died (the spring has sprung) and I'm looking for something similar in that it is fast tracking, both on and off. I never cared for the wah sound that much, pretty subtle really. I also have a CAE Dunlop wah that I love the tone, but I am so used to...

    What is the going rate on an SE EL34?

    I have one that I got new back in 2010, but I rarely play it now. I never gigged with it and it's never left my house, but ultimately, I'm a Marshall guy and I have a few of those that I spend more time with. I have a friend that is interested and I'm willing to cut him a deal, but I don't...

    What new boost should I try?

    Fathers day is coming up which means new gear day for me. Right now I own a BB+, an Yngwie 305? (the black one), and a boss DS-1. I love the BB+, but I never use the distortion side, just the boost as a boost, gain at 9:00, volume at 3:00, eq to taste. I LOVE this. It's transparent, but just...

    Thinking about a bogner

    So I've always wanted an Ecstasy, since Vai used one on ALS. I've had a chance to play one only once and it was wonderful. Well, fast forward to now, I'm married and my funds are tied to what I have into my existing gear. The good news is that I have an Engl SE that will pretty much cover any...

    Replacing pickups on a tele

    I have a B-Bender that I love playing, but to be honest, it sounds too Tele (imagine that!). The problem is the bridge pickup squeals when there is any sizable amount of distortion and the neck pickup isn't hot enough. I guess I'm looking for a strat sound, with the bonus of having a b-bender...

    It's been awhile since I played an EVH, but which neck is the thinnest between the Ernie Ball and the Peavey? Thanks

    Paul Gilbert Flanger

    Hey, I'm in the need for a new flanger and I have a comparison question; I like the take off of the Gilbert flange, but mostly I want the EVH unchained/atomic punks sound. Can the PG flanger do the EVH sounds as well? Thanks

    Best power amp for wet/dry/wet setup?

    I'm looking to setup a wet/dry/wet setup at home and am wondering what type of power amp is better, solid state or tube? I can see the benefits of both, solid state keeping the sound exactly like the sound coming out of the effects. Yet the sound coming out of the head is sweet because it's...
