    Edwards?

    I keeping seeing mention of Edwards and ESP almost in the same breath, are they made in the same shop? If so, how do they compare to say a standard Eclipse?

    Crate V30 head?

    Has any one tried one of these? I have heard good things about the V30 combo. I was originally thinking 15 watts, but the 30 offers an effects loop and a second channel.

    THD Univalve head

    I saw one of these in the MF cataloge. 15 watts with a built in attenuator. A little rich at $914 but looks interesting. Anybody tried one?

    New Vox AC15 combo?

    Has anyone tried one of these yet? looks very interesting. I demoed the AC30, and really liked it. I'm thinking with the 15 I can get the same tone for about $400. less and be able to crank it a little more at bedroom levels.

    WTB/ Ibanez infinity 1 and 2 pickups

    Hey ya'll. I recently purchased a neck thru RG that came with these pickups and deceided it would be my #1 so I put new electronics and Duncans in her. Well now I just got a new ESP M2, so the RG has been delegated to the bench. Unfortunatley when I changed pickups, I gave the originals away and...

    Ernie ball musicman guitars? Got input?

    Hey guy's. As I stated in the What product are you gassing for in 2006 thread, I noodled around with a EB Luke at GC this weekend and was completely blown away. The build quality and feel of this axe was sweet! The price, considering it is a hand made in america guitar is not bad either at...

    Maple or Rosewood?

    I ordered a new ESP M-2. It has an alder body and maple bolt on neck with a rosewood fret board. When I orderd, I specified a JB/Jazz combo. Now it turns out I can only get the duncans on the maple fret board or stick with the rosewood and go with EMG 81's. I have never owned a maple freted...

    Jackson DK1 or ESP M 11

    Hails. Looking for input on these two. If you were to choose , which one would it be and why? Thanks for your input. Oh yeah the ESP would be the standard with duncans and rose wood. The Jackson comes with the EMG's and rosewood. I thought these two would be close but after looking at harmony...

    .047 or .022 Cap???

    Hi ya'll. I have just changed the stock pickups in my RG42, and I am going to replace the 5 way switch with a 3 way and also change the pots. The schematic I got from this site suggested a .047 on the tone pot. What difference would the .047 make from the .022?? Thanks in advance for your help...

    How much fret buzz should I tolerate?

    O.K. I just bought a ESP DV8-R and really like the lightness and tone from this beast. Now the bad, there was fret buzz like mad when I picked it up. The luthier let out the neck and it helped ever so slightly when I asked him what else could be done he told me the guitar was drop tuned and that...

    JB too dark??? Help!!!

    HI Ya'll. I just got a new RG42 fixed bridge mahogany body and maple thru neck. With the stock infinity pickups this guitar was very dark. I went back and forth as whether to put a JB which I thought might prove to be too bright or a distortion. I went JB and the guitar is still dark? not what...

    Looking for input on a ESP DV8-R and KH202

    I am currently shopping and had the pleasure of playing the KH202 today. It is a very nice playing instrument for $500. While on the ESP web site, I came across the DV8-R and my 17 year old's heart started pounding. LOL. For the money it looks to be out fitted very nicely. Duncans, Sprezels...
