Hey gang. I've been using stompboxes through my Randall 2x12's clean channel to get my heavy metal tone for about a year now, and I got the hankering for an upgrade. I'm looking for some high gain tube tone. Out of all the amps I used at the local shop, the Peavey XXX takes the cake but it's...

Hey gang. I picked up an 80's NJ (the good kind) Warlock from eBay a couple months ago, covered in dings and full of old electronics and hardware. Now, I want to pimp her beyond all recognition. I want to revamp all the electronics, change up all the hardware, and paint the bastard. So I'd...

I'm a big Dimebag Darrell fanatic, and I know one of the things he always did with his Lawrence 500L's is flip the pup upside down (or is that neckside bridge?) and put it in the bridge position in order to get his tone. My question is, when is it appropriate to do this, and what exactly is the...

Hey gang. I'm having a problem with my axe making a sort of clicking/whirring noise while I play. I can record and upload a clip of the sound later, but right now it's pretty late. I only hear it when I have distortion turned on, and it only occurs in a certain spot. It's most audible when I...

I just don't get it. I own a Digitech GNX3 and a Death Metal Distortion, and I love both of them. I don't get much buzz or hiss from my Death Metal, and when I put an EQ next to it, it sounds as smooth as a freshly oiled guillotine. Before you pass me off as not knowing what pedals are out...

Here are two tracks that I am releasing on my solo album. As it stands now, my "one man band" is called Dantera. The tracks below are pasted together using a Digitech processor. I sincerely hope you enjoy them. First, a Floyd-turned-Pantera number I wrote. There are actually two songs, "The...

Hey all. I just got a GNX3 today, and I wanted to test out its features, so I made this tune with the Auto Ya function. http://www.angelfire.com/gundam/srwd/AutoYaFunk.mp3 EDIT: Copy and Paste the link. It's a pretty simple loop, but I like the sound of it. Give it a listen and tell me what...

Hey. I was just at my music shop today and I decided to try out the Digitech GNX3 they had on the floor. I fell in love with the thing and I like a lot of the effects. I'm really thinking of picking one up, but I am not widely-experienced in the realm of processors. I intend to use the GNX3 for...

Yo. It's me again. During the coming month I'm going to try and release an album of solo work. This clip runs in the same vein as the first post I made (search back a bit to find it): I wrote the rhythm track and adlibbed the solo separately, then put them together in Windows Sound Recorder, the...

Howdy. I'm new to the boards as of today. My name is Dan, and I've been playing since September when I got my first guitar on my 17th birthday. Today I made a recording out of a rhythm I wrote, and a solo I improvised. The quality isn't perfect but it gets the point across. Please give me your...
