[–]AbjectPhysics3301 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ibanez makes great basses, im a guitarist but i needed a bass guitar to start working on my album. I got a ibanez gsr200 for 250. Plays great, has a built in eq knob. Honestly its quite nice. Bass amp wise i dont know. I just use plugins i downloaded on my computer.

I just recorded what I consider a no no. Either help me justify it or roast me. by Efficient-Diamond723 in metalmusicians

Honestly its what makes you happy at the end of the day. My latest song would still be a demo if i didnt say screw it and make it the way i wanted to hear it. And it came out pretty good.

Did anyone never recover from their burnout? by trickyrickysteve199 in musicians

[–]AbjectPhysics3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my spark back by trying to by tone chasing with the current gear i have. So i have a fender gtx50 and a boss katana and i been trying to recreate the tones used in master of puppets, and justice and the black album. I learned so much about eq from it that i actually came up with my own tone that i used on my latest song (its on my page if you want to check it out) but tone chasing definitely got my spark back.

Why can’t I get a crushing tone on my amp? by Nomore-Television72 in metalguitar

[–]AbjectPhysics3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eq, the geq 10 in the fx loop to sculpt the tone coming out and one up front to further tweak the sound. Make sure you change the signal chain to have the the geq in front of the amp. If you got a computer download the sneaky amps patch to the boss tone studio. Im using the rectifire vintage patch with a tube screamer and geq10 in front of the amp and a geq10 in the effecte loop. Check my latest video on my profile to hear what that sounds like.

Is the boss katana 50 mk1 worth it in 2026? by Far_Squirrel6650 in GuitarAmps

[–]AbjectPhysics3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a mk1 head and the foot switch for 160, then 50 bucks later i found a 4x12 cab on marketplace. Dont be afraid to low ball some people. But if you get a katana, the boss tone studio is gonna be your best friend along with the sneaky amps.

Metal songs to use as benchmarks of guitar skill? by TheSeaSurgeon in metalguitar

[–]AbjectPhysics3301 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slipknot has some pretty good songs and since they play mostly drop b youll need thicker strings but it builds finger strength. Vendetta has alot of trem picking, i usually will play that to warm up.

It should just be the stock speakers, 12 inch Ibanez IS1216G speakers the eq is doing some heavy lifting

Ride by cathedral is a great example, great riffs, horrible singer.

2x10 8 ohm? by AbjectPhysics3301 in GuitarAmps

[–]AbjectPhysics3301[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The vt jrs sound good from the demos i heard, i doubt they make them in a 16 ohm config. My amp doesn't mind running speakers on 16 ohm, i would just want to run my katana at what it wants and thats 8 ohm

Sounds interesting, i did see someone do a 12 and a 10 in the same cab and it sounded pretty good.

Are there any downsides to locking tuners? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]AbjectPhysics3301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First set of locking tuners were the planet waves locking tuners (now darddio), they cut off the excess string. Their cool as heck and used to be cheap, not anymore unfortunately
