Guitar Player's Thread

Dunno, Gustavo's great too, but this kid rocks. Also in YouTube he has some own songs that have nothing to do with metal or that thing but are cool IMO. I find him a really great player.

i think i remember us having this exact same conversation when you last posted this vid, and i replied with mattrach's vid XD

[Earth Breather]

lol yeah. I just like Gustavo better. He's so laid back. Plus you can literally see him smiling throughout the entire thing.

how often does someone need to change a battery for an active pickup?

agreed

[Earth Breather]

i like zakk wylde. His pentatonic pinch harmonic crap may be boring, but he sure knows how to write a metal song.

300 hours of plugged in time, I think... or until it dies :P

[innuenDO]

I forgot to plug out (?) my guitar cable from my Blues Driver. So it was connected one night. The battery was new I think and now the control light doesn't flash but the overdrive thing is still active.
Crazy thing...

I'm really a noob at this kind of things.

I'm using a line 6 POD and Cubase SX 3. You can get cubase sx 3 off bittorrent. I get a pretty decent sound out of that combination.

If you want Wintersun Tabs, get this pack

Mainly done by Bassem, some are complete, and more on Beautiful Death than that one.

[Virtuoosi]

Ahh... Thanks, umosay!

News from today about the pickup S:..
So I went to the store and asked how much for the pickups and the whole process of getting them into my guitar and
I found it like something I can't effort myself.. it costs 290$.. for me its not cheap at all S:
I have a lame job and I'm payed once a month for a 46$.. plus I don't if its worthy to install those pickups in my guitar
because It doesn't have a floyd its fixed someday I'll have to buy floyd.. anyway I'm in deep sh*t
oh and I have only about 250$ so any tips or something about what should I do with it..

[Swabs]

Save up and buy a new guitar.

There's no point in spending all that money on trying to fix up a cheap JS series Jackson.

If you're not comfortable with your guitar, it will be a waste of money anyway spending money on pickups and other upgrades....in that case it's better to save money for a new guitar.

You won't get much for 250$. If I were you I would save my money, and when I had enough I'd buy a decent guitar.

You might be lucky and there might turn up some good deals on ebay.

And remeber if you want a guitar with a floyd...most low-end guitars have licensed floyds which will not stay in tune..and if you like to swicth between standard and drop tunings they're a pain in the ass.

[Kick'a'Nerd]

Wish I could buy from eBay.... but I live with my parents who doesn't agree to buy anything from the internet because they say
its not safe.. anyway the best thing I can get is a MG Series WRMG Warrior™ for 1,079$ and that would happen only in a year or two.. and I'm not sure I could gather so much money in those two years cause in about year and half I'm going to the army.. and
thats not enough time.. anyway big pile of sh*t..
edit:Oh and I love to play between the tunnings.. crap.

I always thought you didn't add stuff after the deadline?

Yeah. When can you send it? I've saved the CEP file to prepare myself for correcting Conti's, adding Pheonix's and now adding yours. I'd rather do 'em all at once.

And to to last bit, I don't usually add people after...the answer is I don't...usually. But I really enjoyed Conti's solo so I think I owe him for that, Pheonix has an awesome RG770 and Corny always wrote a killer solo for the 1st forum jam. I just wanna hear what he can do for this one.

And also, Pheonix has already recorded he said, he just couldn't get it to me in time.

Ibanez got some hardtail RGs which are fairly lowpriced.

Don't know how much they'll cost if you don't buy them online.

Oxymoron.

Here is my Silent Night Bodom Night solo attempt that I said I was going to do. WARNING- RECORDINGS CLIPPY AS FUCK! So turn down the volume level. Any tips on recording levels? (Such as volume level, microphone level, amp level, etc.) I tried but I just stuck with it. Comments on my playing would be appreciated too
