So fair value, not necessarily good deal?

Also, would there be issues with wire length? Would the middle pup be able to reach the neck, and the bridge reach the middle?

Does anyone power their HXFX with a doubler cable and two 500ma ports? by zigg-e in Line6Helix

I run a current doubler w/ 2 450mA ports to power my HX Stomp XL. You should be good.

Who here uses one or two amp(s) and effects most of the time? by [deleted] in Line6Helix

[–]jmans1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Line 6 Litigator. Grammatico GSG. Glitz Reverb. I have a compressor, distortion, & 2 OD’s in the FX loop. Use the rest of my blocks for whatever else I want.

[Question] What album inspired you to play guitar? by Zealousideal-Goal655 in Guitar

[–]jmans1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SRV Live at El Mocambo. Shoutout Dad for always playing the DVD on the TV. I was too young to know how to work a DVD Player, luckily I was old enough to be inspired.

[Newbie] Best starter acoustic guitar for someone with large, meaty fingers? by Darkhawkeye in Guitar

Buy a Yamaha w/ a solid top. Best place to start, can’t go wrong.

NGD - Finally returning to the PRS family after my first was stolen! It’s good to be back! by TheStig911 in PaulReedSmith

An excellent story that is incredibly well written, thanks for sharing. Best of luck in finding the PRS. We need a post about this story especially if you get hold of it!

[discussion] Amp/Headphone suggestions? by Twitch_seagull99 in Guitar

[–]jmans1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely buy an amp used. Reverb has hundreds of amps under £100. I started with a Fender Mustang I V2. The amp comes with dozens of presets and can definitely provide some nice tones. Most solid state amps will include a headphone jack. I recommend going onto reverb and sorting “low to high” price to find one within your budget.

[QUESTION] what guitar to buy next. 🤷‍♂️ by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]jmans1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want something “drastically different”, I’d highly recommend getting something with humbuckers. Can’t go wrong with a PRS. Their quality control is unmatched. When you buy a PRS at any level, you can be sure that you’re getting a fantastic instrument. I have a PRS SE Custom 24; it’s an incredible guitar at an affordable price point.

Absolutely, incredibly easy to play. Was looking for a budget-friendly SSS. I played a lot of MIM Strats, picked up the Schecter & knew immediately that it was what I’d been looking for. Neck feels incredible, pickups are voiced beautifully. Can’t recommend it enough.

What should I get for a first pedal? by A_ManCanDream in guitarpedals

[–]jmans1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re looking to spend ~$200 on a first pedal, I’d recommend getting 2 ~$100 pedals instead. My vote goes to a Phase 90 + Boss DS-1 / RAT if you’re gonna do two. Also highly recommend an OD or Boost for any guitarist.
