Hi all, I have this Schecter Damien Elite FR, which came with the EMG 81/85 set, and I was thinking about changing for passive pickups. The body is mahogany and the fretboard rosewood. I have a Custom TB-5 and a Nazgûl TB in other guitars that I could install in this Schecter. I don't use the...

Hi there, I'm getting a Bugera 333 XL Infinium this Sunday. Since the Infinium technology allows you to mix tubes (EL34'S, 6L6'S etc), I will replace the stock power tubes for 2 EL34 and 2 6L6. I play in a death/thrash metal band. Just wanted to know from you what you think would be a nice...

Hi there, I'm very happy with my NS2 doing the X pattern when running the amp clean, but I'm having some noise problems when running the preamp dirty (which is 90% of the time in my case). So, I was wondering if a second NS2 would solve this issue. That's my setup at the moment: guitar >...

Hi there.. I just got a Damien Elite 6 FR a couple of weeks ago. It comes with EMGs but I'm going to replace them. I already have a Custom/Jazz combo waiting to go here. I was thinking about tuning this guitar to B standard to play some Death Metal stuff like Carcass... I have another guitar...

Re: Floyd Rose bridge for a Schecter Damien Elite 6

Hi there, I just got a Schecter Damien Elite 6 FR. It comes with a Special Floyd Rose bridge and I want to change it for an Original Floyd or a Gotoh tremolo bridge. The point is that I'm not sure which floyd size I need for this guitar. Here follow the guitar specs: - Scale: 25.5” (648mm)...

Hi there.. I'm thinking about getting a Schecter Hellraiser C-1 FR Passive. It comes with a pickup combo of Schecter USA Brimstone-Six. Do you know if they are any good for Thrash/Death Metal? Or would I better change they? thx

Hi there, I'm about to buy a Schecter Omen Extreme 6 FR and will replace the stocks pickups. The bridge position is going to be a Custom TB-5, but I'm not sure which pickup for the neck position. I was considering for the neck: Jazz, Full Shred neck, DiMarzio D Activator X neck... I play...

I'm not really happy with the NS-2 job in suppressing noise from my buffers at the moment. Probably I'm doing something wrong about the connections. Before the NS-2 I have: OC-3, MXR Dyna Comp, Cry Baby Wah, SD-1 and a MT-2. For this setup I'm only using pedals to distort the sound. So, what...

Does anyone know if the Schecter Omen Extreme 6 FR comes with 1 or 2 volume knobs? Because in some pictures it appears with 1 and in others with 2. Another question: does the neck come in the colour of the body or in maple? Thx

I'm running the following on my pedalboard: Boss OC-3 > MXR Dyna Comp > Cry Baby Wah > Boss SD-1 > Boss MT-2 > MXR Micro Amp > Boss NS-2 > Boss BF-2 > Boss CH-1 > Boss DD-6 At the moment I'm not running the last three pedals in the FX loop, because I'm using the amps clean. I am going to get a...

Hi there, I have a Laney head (GH 100l) but it's not doing the job the way I want. I play Thrash/Death Metal and I'm going to change this Laney for a Marshall DSL 100h. What overdrive pedal do you thing would fit well for this Marshall? I was thinking about the Boss SD-1... Cheers

I have a guitar with H/S PUPs configuration. The current PUPs are a Nazgul Trem 6 (bridge) and a Hot Rails SHR-1 (neck). What Pot do you thing would be better in this case (volume and tone), 250k or 500k? thx

I'm a Thrash/Death Metal guitar player and like tones like: Exodus, Testament, Death, Kreator, Sodom, Cannibal Corpse, Sepultura etc... My amp is a Laney GH 100L and I like it. However, to get those tones I MUST use a distortion pedal in front of it (Metal Zone in my case). The amp has its own...

Hi there, What do you think is the most aggressive Wah pedal? I've been using for like 10 years the Original Cry-Baby and I like it very much. However, I find it lacks a bit of aggression/attack sometimes. Maybe the Dime? Cheers
