JBL EONs have profile and EQ management that lets you negate the issues of using a PA speaker vs a FR speaker. I use mine with the Peavey Decade or Liverpool as a portable rig sometimes. AIB with the H90 and the JBL is my grab-and-go rig.

I decided to go stereo with my effects in the studio, seeing I use two amps anyway. I was trying to figure out where to put my mono VOL pedal. Since I like the VOL pedal at the end of the signal chain, I picked up an Ernie Ball stereo VOL to go after the Eventide H90. The cool thing is it also...

Lets suggest guitars for each other and see how close we can get to what that person would want or play. Someone suggest something they think I might play lets say John Doe suggests something. I will comment on if is is close then someone new lets say Don Doe suggests a guitar for John Doe, then...

My Peavey Classic 20 is in the shop, so this has been my main rig in the office the past couple of days. It is my first time using the MD-2 in this amp, and it sounds fantastic.

Picked up an LTD Eclipse. I was trolling the used pages looking for a barebones, stop tailpiece guitar I could put a Black Winter Rail in. This came up in an SDOTD 50% off for $300 so I pulled the trigger. The stock pickup is "okay" but I really think the BW is going in there. Action is solid...

I am all set with my silicon fuzz—my Seymour Duncan La Super Rica is like a Big Muff on steroids. I wanted to add a germanium fuzz to make my double tracking in the studio sound wider and give the tracks their own distinct character. I picked up this Hiwatt Filter Fuzz, a MKII fuzz with some...

Drop your guitar hacks, tips, and tricks here. I picked up a cleaning caddy on Amazon to store my general guitar maintenance supplies. No more running back and forth for anything when I am doing string changes in the basement or living room.

A Donner Travel guitar just showed up via Amazon from a friend for my birthday. Not something I would buy myself, which makes it a perfect birthday gift. So far, I am having fun with it. I wish the pickups had a bit more bite, but it is for practicing, not jamming out with my band. No need for a...

Richard Fortus is touring the Middle East right now. I have never seen this happen in my life. You Florida boys should start playing unpotted pickups.

I was in my Mom & Pop this weekend, and there is a Jackson Dinky Arch Top JS22-7 DKA HT Electric Guitar that has been sitting there for a while. It is marked at $179. I picked it up for poops and giggles and the guitar plays like a dream. I have not plugged it in because I did not feel like a...

I picked up my Omen 7 string last night, and there was too much relief and a few dead spots on the neck. It played beautifully just this Saturday. I took a look at it, and there is too much relief. It's time for a seasonal adjustment. I haven't looked yet, but I am sure my SG and Les Paul lite...

Reliced acoustics? What is next a Willie Nelson model with a hole in it? https://www.martinguitar.com/guitars/standard-series/D-18-StreetLegend.html

I have a Lounsberry Pedals NTO-1 Nigel Overdrive Pedal listed on eBay for $100 shipped. It is a great-sounding pedal that will get you to hard rock levels of overdrive but I am doing the high-gain thing these days and it is collecting dust. I will do it for a forum bro $90 plus shipping Or...

I just got the shipping confirmation for Friday. I needed to add some bench depth for the new set. I am glad I am working from home because we are getting hit with a polar vortex and I would not want a guitar waiting outside for even a few minutes. Pics to come on Friday

I was checking out a guitar last weekend at GC and they plugged me into a 15w 1x10 5150. The amp sounded amazing, with great clear distortion with amazing saturation. I am wondering how close the 5150 amps and MXR pedals sound to each other. It is not a cheap pedal so I want to do my research.
