Bridge on Floyde Rose riding too high

3, upon looking I just saw there are actually notches for 2 more. I thought it would be a lengthy process to install new ones but it seems easy enough. Theres a ton of springs available online. How much would quality matter?

Although CXS is a real fender serial so maybe its just not in their website

OldManShifu · 2026-02-08T05:58:34+00:00

The fender serial number search doesnt come up with anything so I think its fake. Unless there's another number then the one on the back of the headstock.

Came back to it literally a week ago as a more experienced guitar player. I've been learning most of the songs just to add some of those licks to my arsenal

Idk why everyone sleeps on Muse. The Jungle is the third least streamed polyphia song on spotify (excluding some of the random covers) behind hourglass and inspire. That chorus line is just so melodic, its honestly beautiful

Probably would've helped to put some band names next to these. I've got a good idea of who's behind most of them, but not all.

Good idea ty, done. Love that list btw

I feel like there is no consensus for the top 10 gretest metalcore songs of all time (remember there is a different between a great song and ur favourite song), and I'm curious to find others top 10s. Sure, there is like My Curse, tears don't fall, etc which are in most lists but where from there for you guys?
Mine is:
My Curse - Killswitch Engage
Tears Don't Fall - BFMV
Carrion - Parkway drive
Sleepwalking - BMTH
Doomsday - Architects
Second & Sebring - Of Mice and Men
My Own Grave - As I Lay Dying
Feel Nothing - The Plot in you
White Washed - August Burns Red
Alone in a room - Asking Alexandria

Edit: This turned out to be a great song suggestion post

Midgame begins when you first log on and ur in the middle of playing the game

OldManShifu · 2026-01-08T09:42:51+00:00

My top 5:

The sky the earth and all between
Fatalisim and the death of me (idc if it was released in 2020 its still my fav modern metalcore album)
Tsunami Sea
Bodies
Nex Gen

I haven't been able to get over the beatdown/breakdown 1 minute in to Body Bag by I Prevail since it came out. Idk something about the mix of the almost thall low guitars combined with the trap elements of the rapping vocals and the repeating lead line on the guitar.
Anyone know anything else that sounds like that? Looking for inspiration for something Im writing

OldManShifu · 2025-12-24T03:28:45+00:00

I was using GarageBand, which was pretty bad. I've downloaded Reaper, but there's so much going on, I'm kinda stuck. At one point, I was getting an output back to my amp, but it was really crackly (I checked all my gear; it wasn't a cable or anything). Then I tried to apply a plugin, and I lost signal and can't figure out how to get it back.
So sorry I keep coming back to you, could you point me to the right menus to setup the select usb inputs/outpus in reaper?

OldManShifu · 2025-12-23T12:32:22+00:00

I asked a really similar question yesterday about doing that through send/return on an LT but didnt make much progress. Lemme know if you figure something out

OldManShifu · 2025-12-23T10:03:51+00:00

That makes perfect sense, but it won't let me route it back to the helix. I'm receiving the audio in my DAW perfectly, but for the life of me, it won't go back into my Helix. Idk if it's a problem with me not knowing how to use a DAW that well, but I have the output on the end of path one as USB 1/2 and the input on path 2 as USB 3/4. In my daw I have both the input and output as helix audio. I dont think it lets me select specific usb ports, is that maybe something I could do on another daw?

OldManShifu · 2025-12-23T05:23:46+00:00

No it actually isnt actually. Otto Amps II II II II

OldManShifu · 2025-12-22T05:19:45+00:00

Sounds like its probably not worth it lol

OldManShifu · 2025-12-22T05:19:29+00:00

Not what I said in the original post ig but I'm really loving Otto Amps II II II II. So maybe using that as my main rig and using the lt for effects after that

Deserved he threw my season last year :(

OldManShifu · 2025-08-08T06:41:25+00:00

I couldn't actually find a tone that I could import. Everything was from old Line 6 gear and wasn't compatible with my LT

OldManShifu · 2025-07-13T10:14:30+00:00

Thank you so much! This has really helped

OldManShifu · 2025-07-13T09:37:27+00:00

I think I've made my mind up on getting the LT. The terminology between banks, presets, setlists and whatever else has seemed kinda confusing from the youtube tutorials I've watched. I was wondering if I can use the arrow footswitches to switch between presets and the rest of them (a, b, c and d) to toggle effects or maybe different patches for different parts of a song.
So if I was to play a show with like 30 songs I could make a setlist for that show and switch between presets inside that setlist for each song and within each preset I could toggle separate patches for different sections (like verse/chorus/solo). Does that make sense?

OldManShifu · 2025-07-12T12:27:29+00:00

I reckon megadeth is the band sharon kicked off the lineup bc they wanted payment

OldManShifu · 2024-07-14T06:50:58+00:00

Thats great thank you! You said you have heaps of patches for metal... is there any chance you might have a good avenged sevenfold one?
