    Thoughts on the Behringer NU1000?

    How does it compare with a class A/B power amp like the ISP Stealth or SD PowerStage?

    Do I need a power amp?

    I'm setting up my rig and I was thinking to use a cabinet and a preamp pedal to get the distortion, do I need a power amp to drive the cabinet or the preamp is enough?

    EVH D Tuna Routing

    I want to install a D Tuna on my Floyd Bridge that is not top mounted. Since the string lock screws are still a little bit above the body I think I could get away with it but I am still not sure if it needs routing, anybody knows the minimum distance (between string lock screws and body) needed...

    Going direct. Do I need a power amp?

    Hi guys, I wanna try going direct, but I don't know if I need a power amp pedal (like the magnum 44) or if I would be ok with a cab sim + DI. If I wasn't clear this is the signal chain I have in mind: Guitar -> Drive -> EQ -> Reverb -> DI/Cab Sim (Think Hughes and Kettner Red Box) -> Mixer Am...

    3 (or more) in 1 pedals?

    Hey guys I'm looking for pedals that have 2 or more functions but not as much as a Multi-FX, pedals like the Tech 21 FlyRigs, Movall Rock Highway, EHX Tone Tattoo or Valeton Dapper. Prefferably that come with an Overdrive and/or Distortion. Any contributions are welcome, Thanks!

    Floyd Help?

    I was changing strings on my floyd equipped guitar and the high e string came out from the bridge. I thought i hadn't tighten the insert block enough but when i check it I notice the block had the string marked in it, like a deep scratch that made the string slip. Is it a common problem? or are...

    out of phase question?

    Re: out of phase question? This is the way I wired it, sorry about the crappy image, just did in in paint. Notice that the Neck PU is intended to be series/north coil/parallel while the Bridge PU is intended to be series/south coil/parallel

    out of phase question?

    I added two mini switches in my HH guitar for series/split/parallel on each, separately they work perfect but in middle position with both of them on I get out of phase sounds. Which cables I have to switch to get in-phase sound?

    Adding jack inputs in a combo for connecting pedals, possible?

    I'm not much of an expert when it comes to amps, so I ask here. I want to buy a reverb pedal and I have a marshall MGCF combo. The thing is I kinda like the distortion it has, and since I want the reverb pedal after the distortion I was thinking about adding 2 jack inputs, one that cuts the...
