    Audio interface - Rock solid in Win 7 64-bit?

    My EMU 0404USB audio interface only has beta drivers for Win 7 64-bit, and lately I've been having far more crashes than what seems reasonable, and the crash dumps without exception cite the EMU driver as the cause. I'd like to try another audio interface in case that will solve the issue. I...

    Always been using 009s..

    I've always been using 009 gauge strings. Just 'cause it's been the default standard string gauge of every guitar I've ever played. I mostly play in standard E or drop D. I've noticed most guitar players on here use thicker gauge strings (although a lot of them tune down). Of course...

    Does anyone know the difference between a 006 Hellraiser and a C1 Hellraiser? I think 006 Hellraiser is a model from 2008 and probably discontinued, but apart from a slight difference in the body design, are there any other differences?
