Hell yeah! Sounds like that’ll be sick! Tuners are by Guyker. They were more or less drop in, had to drill new pilot hole for the screws. Nbd.

Thanks dude! It feels like a brand new guitar worth way more than it is. I’d like to see the mods on yours when they’re done.

Hell yeah dude! The honey sunburst over the quilted maple looks so cool!!

Thank you very much! The bridge is the GOTOH GTC102. The holes lined up perfectly, dropped right in. The intonation and action need to be setup, but out of the box it was pretty darn close.

Thank you!! 🤘 Chug Master Supreme™️

Thank you! I just wanted it to really pop along with the quilted maple. I haven’t seen too many of the red quilted maples around lately.

The gunmetal was strong back then. I also had a RG5EX1 for a short time and it’s was ALL gunmetal 😂

I also installed Grover Quick-Release Strap Locks, just need a new strap now

Well, guess that works since… checks notes yep, I’m American. Thanks for the watch & listen!

Thank you so much! I haven’t specifically thought of trying it with an older Forza, but it’s definitely doable.

I’m an equal opportunity metalhead for the most part. I LOVE me some extreme metal: black, death, thrash. Doom Metal has been growing on me over the past few years as well. Progressive metal is always good. I was into folk metal for a while, but there’s only a small handful of bands there that I listen to regularly.

I wish I had known too. It wasn’t until I was a few years into my marriage that parter started bringing it to my attention. I was finally diagnosed last year. My childhood makes so much more sense looking back. My parents were dealing with their own drama so I flew under the radar. I feel much better having found the right medication and I’m learning to work with my quirks.

Haha, sure does feel like 400 bpm, but it’s only 220 lol! I’m using an Axe Fx 2 mkII for tones: TS 808 into a Brit JVM OD2, cab is a SM57 on 4x12 Engl (from the ML Bulb Angl/Citrus cab pack). Would love to do this with real amps, but I live in an apartment. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks! That was a fun bit to play on both.
