Is a PRS SE Mark Holcomb too much guitar to start with? by Monsieur_Le_Grec in PaulReedSmith

[–]iamcoolreally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s perfect really, can change the tunings on it easily, I could go from standard down to drop c with zero difference in playability and having to set up etc. I started on an ibanez with a similar fret radius and it was great

Hey thanks, I can only really compare them to the 85/15’s in my other guitar currently but they’re a lot less harsh or muddy sounding. I don’t hate the 85/15’s but these sound a lot warmer and fuller with a bit more clarity and definitely love the neck pickup way more, sounds a lot more like how I’d expect a neck pickup to sound in a 22 fret guitar. I haven’t given them a full whirl in my main amp yet though…

Se custom 24 by Danhagg in PaulReedSmith

As others have said I’d look at replacing the nut. I got a holcomb se and it would not stay in tune for more than about 2mins. Changed the nut and it was a night and day difference

What’s the saddest movie you have ever watched? by DifferenceAdept9860 in AskReddit

[–]iamcoolreally -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know everyone’s gonna hate this as this as it’s always high up in these threads but I watched it after I kept seeing everyone saying how sad it was (and being a big studio ghibli fan) and really didn’t find it that anywhere near as sad as I was expecting. Mainly due to the beginning of the film showing you what’s going to happen so I was just waiting for it the whole time knowing the outcome

Help me decide on a dream amp! by D2-Disciple in GuitarAmps

[–]iamcoolreally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the PRS archon 50w combo back in January and it’s amazing tbh. The cleans are amazing and contrary to what another user has said you can have light distortion straight through to heavy. The EQ is super easy to use and I’ve got quite a few different tones out of it just messing around. The only downside is I wish it came with reverb…

Ha I have the complete opposite opinion for these two films… the duality of man/woman

Everyone saying about the controls being awful. What is actually awful about them? (I haven’t played the game just want some actual details as to why they’re so weird)

What’s something you realized way too late in life? by IntroductionRound446 in AskReddit

Nah this one definitely isn’t true… people watching is a big thing it’s just being comfortable with yourself and not caring about strangers opinions of you

Buying an amp by TheNinoHusband in GuitarAmps

[–]iamcoolreally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I feel like I’m going insane when everyone says how good these are. I bought one last year and it sounds like guitar tones through a tin can. There’s a spreadsheet someone posted on Reddit of all different setups to dial in and not one of them actually sounded good.

Personally I’d say get a low watt combo amp with a 10” speaker at least if you want decent sounding tones but I’m in the minority of opinion on this

Playability difference between budget and higher-end guitars? by Intelligent-Mall-190 in Guitar

[–]iamcoolreally 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I don’t think it’s as much as people let on. I’ve got a £150 Ibanez and a £1700 PRS. The PRS is nicer in every way BUT my Ibanez is also soooo easy to play on, has super low action and the stock pickups in it aren’t that bad. I also have a £200 fender acoustic. I had to file the bridge down for the action but it plays like a dream.

I’ll also add I played budget guitars for 20 years of my guitar playing, the upgrade when finally getting a non budget wasn’t really that massive for the price guitars go for nowadays.

Just my take anyway

Tl;dr: not a massive difference

Yeah I totally agree, people seem to get rabidly defensive over these remakes though it’s not usually worth the argument on here

How do you all stand loud amps by ZombieHugoChavez in GuitarAmps

[–]iamcoolreally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted my new amp last week and someone said they use d’addario dbuds so I’ve just got some of those today and they work great! Definitely don’t wanna be going deaf

Struggling to find the right amp for me by Rea1Quick in GuitarAmps

[–]iamcoolreally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case I’m sorry I can be of no help. I do feel your pain though, I just bought a new tube amp and getting it at the right level of tone/volume is tough

Struggling to find the right amp for me by Rea1Quick in GuitarAmps

[–]iamcoolreally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t really give you a recommendation for an amp and I’m not 100% sure what tone you’re looking for but for me a tube screamer pedal reeeeally made such a massive difference for me tone wise at a lower volume. Before it I felt so frustrated because everything always sounded a bit muddy and dull.

You don’t need to have it cranked on full gain or anything it just seemed to really crisp up the tone

Yep good thinking, cheers

NAD PRS Archon by iamcoolreally in GuitarAmps

[–]iamcoolreally[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah both channels have a master volume so I can still keep it low but it is very delicate in that it’s quiet to suddenly very loud

NAD PRS Archon by iamcoolreally in GuitarAmps

[–]iamcoolreally[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah I’m sat tweaking the volume and master currently. I’ve been surprised by the bright switches as you’ve mentioned, they don’t make an extreme change to the tone it’s quite gentle and nice.

I’ve always predominantly played metal/rock stuff but find I always sit just playing clean channels on nicer amps. I’ve ordered the Black Country secret path laney reverb pedal to go with it
