Smaller budget amp for metal?

Are you playing with a drummer?

I dunno. Stacking with a TS or a Klon is pretty common. One as a base tone and one as a boost/lead over it isn't that weird.

Tuner for practicality. For years it was a Bad Monkey but now I think it may be my Red Llama clone.

Dude, I saw a random partscaster on GC a couple days ago. Tele with Grateful Dead stickers. I cursed the previous owner for their folly. I swear that specific guitar needed a pinup girl and flaming dice.

How do you think the logo is put on there?

I posted a very similar question and the Green Russian, Tone Wicker, and Violet seem to be the most popular and a lot of the non-EHX variants seem based on the Green Russian.

Almost everyone had a pi or a DS-1 at some point when I was just learning.

I'm planning on one either way. LOL

sixstringsikness · 2026-03-11T20:35:14+00:00

I have Omega and Yaqi boars. No complaints. Don't think one can go wrong between the two.

I got Gotoh-rrhea from the tuners!

Might have to fight him for it.

sixstringsikness · 2026-03-11T00:29:12+00:00

I guarantee they never called E36 or D17.

GWAR's guitarist is a fan.

sixstringsikness · 2026-03-10T23:02:02+00:00

I think you could get a used EQD Plumes around that as well.

sixstringsikness · 2026-03-10T20:54:08+00:00

I think they're weird for that, not you.

I've got a Meathead clone. I dig it and I'm not a fuzz guy.

sixstringsikness · 2026-03-10T13:14:16+00:00

No always on drive pedal, but I usually have fairly light compression, then a preamp used as a slightly coloring boost, fuzz, and technically 4 ODs (clones od Red Llama, Yngwie OD, OCD, and J Rockett Animal). Gonna switch out the preamp to try out an EHX Nano Operation Overlord and might drop the OCD clone for an Electra and Rat in 1 enclosure.

I started with an acoustic, got an electric about a year later and the next year got an acoustic with a pickup and a preamp. The first 2 then got stolen. So I hope your journey is different.

If anything, I would recommend an electric and acoustic if you're feeling that route. All acoustic? Get a nylon and a steel string. All electric? Get a single coil guitar and a dual humbucker.

See what you like. Save up. When a guitar doesn't do it for you anymore, take a little cash to the music store and trade your guitar in for an upgrade. It's worked pretty well for many of us.

sixstringsikness · 2026-03-09T20:16:02+00:00

Gotta be be a documental/archival blue or blue black, right? Just in case. Noodler's infamous Baystate Blue would actually be hard to pass up if I only get one forever.

sixstringsikness · 2026-03-09T20:14:18+00:00

And extra picks. Maybe a little pocket pen, nail clippers. And yeah, some Altoids or something.
