Ok, I wanna try using a powersoak/attenuator to let my amp run a little truer at practice levels. Which powersoak should I go with? The Hotplate or the Marshall PowerBrake? I don't want it to change the eq of my amp any and I noticed the HotPlate has all the bright functions and stuff on it...

Ok I'm about to Ebay a Dual Rectifier but I'm afraid to drop that cash to a complete stranger because I'm afraid something will be wrong with the amp........Has anyone else ever bought a tube amp of considerable amount on ebay? Did it work out ok? Both amps I'm looking at look cosmeticly...

So I play alder-bodied Jackson guitars and my last head had EL34's in it and my rig sounded really twangy and thin. I thought it was the combination of the tubes and bright guitar. I went to 6l6 amps and it sounded fine. I heard a marshall the other day and loved it......So my question is...

So what scale length are they, the website doesn't have this info. I was curious about the dimebag razor v or whatever it's called. Are any of the new models 25.5 scale?

Has anybody played the new Ibanez Mick thompson model? I wondered what opinions they had, particularly about the neck. Is it anything like the prestiege necks?

So I'm looking at an Ibanez steve vai Jem 7vwh model, it has features that interest me, but I just realized it has 21, 22, 23, and 24 frets scalloped. I've never played a scalloped fret board so how much differnt is this? Would I be able to make the transistion from non-scallops to this...

My Ibanez's tremelo is crap. The saddle screws wont hold the saddles down tight enough. Will an Original Floyd Rose fit a Ibanez RG? It looks like it will.

I replaced the bridge and middle p/u's with an invader and hotrails. After I got them in, they didn't hardly work. I lost about all output, then I lost all output. I bought a new 5 way selector switch, and I put it in today, all the pickups worked for about 3 minutes, now I'm loosing output...

My Ibanez rg I just bought, has a tremelo I"m not crazy about. I would like to upgrade to an original floyd rose, but I don't know if it will fit the cavity. I can't find a drawing with measurements to be sure, so does anyone know if an original floyd will fit a RG?

On the DOD malmsteen signature overdrive pedal, I can't seem to find any info on wether it is true bypass or not, does anyone know if it is? Does anyone own one. My music store doest have one so I can't play it, but I'd really like an overdrive pedal to push my valveking a little bit. I just...

Is there a single coil size humbucker (like the hot rails) hotter than a hot rails pickup? I have an Ibanez with a Dimarzio pro tack in the mid position, the problem is it isn't that hot and you have to get it close to the strings to get saturated. When I do this it is right under where I pick...

I installed an invader bridge yesterday and a dimarzio pro track middle......Now I need a neck humbucker. I use the neck p/u more than most people do, I like it for those fast Petrucci-esk- type runs. The guitar is naturally kinda thin because It's a basswood body. (Ibanez RG) The pickup...

Ok, I've got a very rare Ibanez RG model that needs some juice! It has a basswood body, the IBZ pickups sound very very tin/twangy so I need something with good output and lots of lowend. All my jacksons I put invaders in the bridge, and that sounds GREAT. I was thinking of maybe an invader...

Ok, all you Ibanez guys.......Which neck is thicker, the rg prestiege necks, or the rg wizard II necks?

I was curious if anyone had played one of thease? I played a prestige model Ibanez and I really liked it. This was the closest model feature-wise I could find to it. I was toying with the idea of buying a cheaper model guitar like any Ibanez or ESP. So, any opinions on the RG?
