    Looking to upgrade the bridge on my schechter omen extreme 6. I have no problem finding matches for bridge post spacing but am stuck having to change the radius or string spread. I figure I'd rather have the matched radius, but I'm wondering will I notice any ill-effects from changing string...

    Gen 4 noisless vs hot for tele

    I like my player series tele coils, I just want a little more push from them for some rock tones. I'm considering either the hot for tele set and using a noise gate or using the gen 4 noisless with a clean boost up front. I play alot of modern rock and blues with this guitar. What's everyone's...

    Hot for tele set vs hot rails tele set

    I'm looking to upgrade my tele PUPs for something that'll put a good amount of punch in my sound. I play mostly higher gain rock 80s to modern.

    I've been using the vox adio air gt for a little while now and I love it! Great cleans and rock tones!! My question is would it be woth it to also get a THR10X for high gain stuff?

    Bedroom level tube amp hack?

    I've been longing for a tube amp but don't want it to just collect dust since I can rarely play loud. I've been using a ZOOM G3Xn in the loop of my katana 100 for effects, but also to step down the volume of the katana for better tones at lower volume. Could I have a similar experience with a...

    Low volume bedroom amp with effects loop or built in looper?

    I've been on the hunt for a good sounding low volume amp that has an effects loop or a built in looper for jamming with myself while the rest of the house sleeps. I currently have the katana 100 combo but it's kind of a pain to set up all my pedals and get plugged in. I'm considering the...

    Boss GAFC: add volume pedal (ev-5) or boost to boost clean and effects?

    I've just recently bought the boss GAFC pedal and I want more volume for my cleans and effects channels on my boss katana 100w 1/12 combo. Will adding the EV-5 give me enough volume control to essentially be a boost to my sounds? Or should I just grab a TC spark mini? (Boost pedal)
