I'm not a big fan of Iron Maiden but I heard this song and wanted to play it I have real troubles with that pull-off with a note on the next string each time. I can't work out an economic way to keep going back, and so I can't keep up (what is it, 2 or 3 notes a second?) So I thought this...

Out of interest I got a quote on how much my local guitar shop will charge to fit my new pickups in my Epiphone SG. They didn't understand why i'd want to change the pots. Why exactly should I change the pots? Was it suggested to me becasue the epiphone ones might be substandard? They look fine...

Boy do I ask a lot of questions! Anyway, I've noticed many many surface scratches on the body of my guitar that you can only see from an angle, like when you check a cd for scratches. I have no idea how they got there, i'm assuming everyday wear and tear. Anything that is recommended to get...

Do I measure from here to here#? Basically from the top of the pot itself to the top of the spindle? Without the washers on of course. I only wonder because I can order 15mm pots or 18mm pots and just the length of the spindle alone is 19mm. This is to fit an Epiphone SG copy, which are meant to...

Hello! Before you say anything, I have used the search button, and there were 14 pages, and I read through the entire first page of first entries and none of it was the same question I'm asking :fingersx: Does anyone have any good system for learning scales really fast, like some technique or...

I've come into some money so I want to do something frivolous with my guitar! I hate the nasty vinyl see-through type knobs on my SG copy and I was wondering if I could swap them for metal ones like these: http://www.guitargear.co.uk/home/m/Shop/id/2/page/1/ Would it work? Would it look...

My guitar is an Epiphone SG copy and I love it to bits and i've had it nearly as long as i've been playing guitar. As I get better at playing and am now wanting to record with it, I am noticing that it doesn't sound all that good. I've another thread about it but now I have recordings to better...

Hello! Someone is getting me some SD pickups but they say that the wires have been cut to 'fit' a Les Paul Standard. Why you'd need to cut wires I don't know, but is it likely that it won't be long enough to fit my Epiphone SG? I am worried :confused:
