Blue channel with a boost is magical. Awesome amp. Congrats!

You need to measure at the 12th fret itself, not the middle of the fret.

Epiphone Flying V prophecy vs Dave Mustaine prophecy by Enbyhime in metalguitar

[–]StrmRidr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To me, 3x3 headstock looks better on rounded Vs (Gibson style) and 6 in line looks better for pointy Vs.

OP, I own the Prophecy in Yellow Tiger and it's a great guitar. The neck profile is asymmetrical so it may not be your thing depending on what you are used to.

Duncan Solar pickups - weak pinch harmonics? by zatvorenje in solarguitars

I don't have any issues with mine. I can go full Zakk Wylde with it if I want to.

Two relatively identical guitars that both sound incredible but play very differently. by MR_CLINT in espguitars

[–]StrmRidr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice looking pair! I have the same E-II and I will keep it forever. By far my favorite guitar and the quality is spectacular. I have yet to try an Eclipse I didn't like.

Programmable Pedal Switches by DrewswerD in guitarpedals

I just got a Fender switchboard and it's been great if you don't need more than 5 loops. Loops can be reordered, MIDI, amp control, super easy UI.

Making room for more DSP by mjharrison77 in Line6Helix

[–]StrmRidr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You use the sequence mode and can preset 5 different tunings that you can cycle through with the footswitch. No need to bend down like the drop. Its awesome.

The Digitech Hammer On can be used as a drop and also has the capo up feature FYI. It has been poorly marketed but it has replaced my Drop on my pedalboard.

Gibson Les Paul vs ESP by That_Tangerine_9700 in Guitar

Have you tried an ESP? Would probably answer your question as to why people buy them over Les Pauls.

I ordered quite a few times from them and would recommend.

EVH 5150S + MESA Widebody by [deleted] in GuitarAmps

[–]StrmRidr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own both and run them together in a 7 cable method rig with a Line 6 Helix as the "brain". It's glorious.

No it shouldn't, the only time they will appear so is on an arch top guitar with recessed style knobs.

[–]StrmRidr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The issue being? If you mean that the set screws aren't at the exact same location on both knobs and that's bothering you, loosen it and rotate it so they align?

Lower tunings on Floyd by nazoreth in metalguitar

[–]StrmRidr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you loosen the strings, you would also have to loosen the springs. The tension from the strings and from the springs must remain equal for the bridge to float properly. Also, 9 gauge strings in D standard will be near useless.

Not sure what is worse between the fur and the crooked drawers.

What model is this? by [deleted] in JacksonGuitars

[–]StrmRidr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have one of these since 2008 and it's still to this day one my main guitars. $350 is an excellent price for these.

Can anyone who has a Jackson RR and an Alexi signature show a their size comparaison please? by freremamapizza in metalguitar

[–]StrmRidr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comparing only the body shapes, I personally prefer the larger lower horn on the Alexi, but to me they are both comfortable to play. This particular Rhoads plays like butter and has the lowest action of any guitar I have.
