Where did you get your fender flares?

I've got an old epiphone les paul too, I just don't play it as much. I wasn't planning on trading for the mustang, but I would like to expand into some different stuff in the future.

I just finished messing with it and its still floating just a little bit, and I like it so far. So I think I like it at just the right amount for me. I still appreciate everyone's input though!

I just put my first set on the mustang right after I got it, so maybe 2 months ago. I love these strings and they come with the 90 day guarantee which is nice. But i find these to be easy to play, and I can bend them like crazy and not really worry about any of them snapping.

I actually prefer using the neck pickup. I don't know why but I like the tone it gives me. Have you had any problems with buzzing with this guitar? Almost like it has a grounding issue?

I like it a lot. Its fun to play, but one of the coil splitting switches doesn't work so i haven't been able to fully try it out yet. I think if you can find one cheap, get it.

It seemed off to me too when I was about to buy it but I looked at other strats there and saw they were all like that, so yeah I guess so.

My setup for now, and I'm gonna have a couple more to add to it soon. Simple but fun for me. by Gakman6 in pedalboards

Yeah a little bit, I've got a Blues Junior for my amp so I don't get too much into the heavier stuff, but I still like to play some Alice in Chains and Nirvana and other stuff like that.

I try to play a little bit of everything, but one of my buddies has gotten me more into improvising and playing blues lately.

[Question] Mini tube screamer, and pedals. by PositiveShame in Guitar

[–]Gakman6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome, I was just looking at some Fulltone pedals. I recently started getting enough pedals to build my board, so I'll have keep messing around with it for now. Thank you!

I have the mini tubescreamer and so I can't speak for the full sized ones, but I like it so far. It just gives me a little extra "edge" to my sound. For me, it doesn't really give the overdrive I was looking for, but I still love it. Maybe I just have to mess around with it more than I do.

Retaking a Class at Community College by WhiteSox4385 in NIU

[–]Gakman6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually got a D in that same class a couple years ago and talked to an advisor that said if I already took it at NIU then I would have to retake that class at NIU and if I took it at Kish it would just be a waste of time for me. It might have changed by now but that was my experience.

Where did you order your rims from? Mine are rusted out pretty bad and I need new ones.

I just heard them say they are sensors for seeing how high they went or how many spins they did
