So got a buddy at g.c. that can get me a new mexi just how I want it(maple fingerboard) for a very very good price. (almost free price) and if I get it I would swap out the stock pups for some dimarzio model ps, and a aftermarket bridge, (badass, or hipshot) What im wondering is if doing these...

really curious what strings cook plays?!?! Now that's getting super fanboy status! :)

whats the "rumble" pedal??

So Im looking at getting a pedaltrain pt-2 pedal board, but I have a few questions for the people that have them, the soft shell case is about $70 cheaper than the hardshell case. My concern is do your knobs get all bumped around and moved in the soft case??? And is the hardshell really worth...

hey guys I have a 4 string stingray with single humbucker pickup, the bass is a orange/red sunburst with a matching headstock, (unlike most with a maple headstock) Just wondering if you can date the bass by the serial # found on the plate where the neck and the body come together, my serial is...

just picked up an 1995 ampeg svt 2 pro, and this thing has a ton of tubes (14 to be exact) Im new to the tube amp world and have heard different things concerning what tubes actually effect the "main tone" of your sound. What I understand is that it is the driver tubes that actually affect most...

Hey guys!! I just found a deal locally that I dont think I can pass up! I currently own a ampeg svt 4pro (hybrid, tube pre) and can sell it to get a late 90s ampeg svt 2 pro all tube head. Basically I wont have to come out of pocket any money. So should I do it??? I tried an svt classic and...

yup go with the new bass big muff, for the price and tone you cant beat it! Destroys the boss odb-3!

Ok im really wanting to get one of the 3 of these sweet pedals but have no way of demoing them myself. the Wattson superfuzz, Black cat superfuzz, or the apollo fuzz???? They are all around the same price range $190-$230 and I believe the cat you can only get used status. What say you????

Thanks Jimmy. That sucks the big one!

Just called both my local guitar centers to go and demo a svt 2 pro and was told that they were blown out at a sale price a few weeks ago and dont believe that they would be carrying anymore? In fact I was told only 2 g.c. stores in the U.S. still had a few. Wow was this head not doing good or...

Here is what ive got: fully ocd, rat, bluebeard. Now what other fuzz/dist sounds different than those 3??

Ive got a few fuzz pedals all which are based off of the muff circuitry. Can someone give me some other fuzz pedals that have different tones??

Ok guys on my forever search of the perfect fuzz im at a crossroads. I have a bluebeard like it, but want more lows and beefy/ballsyness. Does anyone have the barber trifecta fuzz?? If so let me know what you think! Its a reasonable price for $150 too.

I would like to get more low end outta the bluebeard and the mids. I know a guy who is handy with an iron, but im not. How can I do it???? And I would like to get something sounding a bit different than the muff fuzz sound what do you recomend?? I got a vintage rat reissue and love it. I was...
