Maybe YOU can.

I went through a little post-honeymoon breakup with this guy and put both Revv pedals back on my board, trying to get a bit more of a modern sound and less overlap of the tones I still have available through the Friedman, but now the SLO Plus is back. I stepped back a bit to take stock of the...

Never apologize for Monty Python references.

Alnico 8, but only if your chassis is made of mahogany.

If it makes the difference in playing a guitar worth several hundred and not playing it, I’d say $55 is worth it.

I'm trying to get some use out of my Strat, but there are minor annoyances that make me unlikely to take it off the wall instead of my Les Paul. I think the biggest one is that I can't mute right at the bridge because the adjustment screws of the saddle eat into the meat of my picking hand...

I have friends that have, but never me. Nope. Never. Not once. Cross my heart.

And a little less symmetric.

I find I'm never playing without any pedals, but no single pedal is always on. For cleans, I'm going to have delay and/or chorus, and for dirt, I'm getting that from a distortion box or overdrive pedal. My amp is set as a clean pedal platform.

I'm not talking about a wireless receiver or a buffer or an amp-modeling pedal. What do you have that you have on literally all the time you're playing?

It's weird to see people in this thread say they don't want huge, awesome guitar tones.

I like that the low end leans more towards sledgehammer than surgical. I love the fat low end crunch it gives me. If I do have one complaint, though, it’s that I can’t get those greasy bluesy sounds, but that could just as easily be flaws in my technique.

I've been listening to a lot of blues rock recently and decided I might have a try at getting some of those tones from my Les Paul. Bands like Dirty Honey, New Roses, LA Maybe, etc., specifically looking for the upper-mid bloom I hear when I listen to those albums. The 59 I have just doesn't...

I've had my eyes on a USA PRS Custom 24 for as long as I've known the first thing about electric guitars, but I really like the versatility of independent volume and tone controls for each pickup, so that one would be out. Give me a Gibson Les Paul Supreme in ebony burst. What a gorgeous...
