Hey everyone, I'm wondering if anyone knows what Muhammed Suiçmez uses to achieve such a brutal tone? I believe he plays an ibanez, probably an rg prestige through an ENGL amp with some sort of ISP distortion pedal, all fingers point at the 'Fetish'. However, i might be totally wrong cheers

A local guy, Rob Formentin has been producing a load of axes but has stopped production recently. I heard that he has gone overseas to sell some of these to various asian countries. I played one today and it had the lowest action id ever played, sheoak body and maple/rosewood neck. Its shape is...

My price range is around $850 AUD ~ $640 USD. Im looking for something like a PRS or Brian Moore, possibly with stock Seymour Duncan pickups with either a standard trem or a floyd rose style. Basically a slightly rounder than usual strat shape with a flamed top that cleans up nicely and has a...

What the reputation of korean made brian moore guitars? I am looking at a IM series with seymour duncan pickups, how do they play? are they good quality? im told it has really nice action. please any comments are appreciated

I was viewing my local vintage guitar shop today and trying out an ibanez lawsuit destroyer with emg 81 pickups when i met her. The man at the counter said that she was made before the PRS factory started up and he had never seen one before with the maple fretboard and black inlayed headstock...

I just found this guitar whilst browsing the ibanez register. Excuse my saying so, but ive never had such a large build up of GAS in such a small amount of time.

Im thinking about buying this Ibanez Destroyer II DT-50 mid 80's, i havent got the price yet but I was told it will be about $180 USD. The guitar has one Nickel Plated PAF and some breed of dimarzio super distortion bridge. It has a tuneomatic bridge, 2 vol controls and 1 one tone and a three...

Ive got around 350 USD to spend on my ibanez. Im thinking about the following items: Hipshot tremsetter Planet Waves Auto-trim Locking Tuners Graphtech saddles Graphtech nut Amber Speed Nobs Cream Humbucker Ring Not sure about neck pup but im going with full shred bridge (reverse zebra). I...

Some guy on ebay was selling a strat neck with a wilkinson roller nut, he said that it rarely goes out of tune when you use the whammy bar. Would it be a good idea to install one of these on my ibanez sa160qm and locking tuners? I find it goes out of tune a little too often. thanks guys

Ok i was looking in the local pawn shop for a guitar my dad said they had "Heartfield Talon III" (one to cross off my G.A.S.) when i deicde that it can wait as its a bit above my budget. I liked a few other guitars there but nothing stood out. So i check out the rooted/broken guitar rack to see...

The first one of these guitars i noticed someone had put out on their verge... WHO THROWS OUT A GUITAR!?... i immediately took it home and inspected it, i could barely find any information about it but it appears to be a hand made 1890 -1920 classical guitar. The brand is Columbia and some idiot...

I got a line 6 spider II 212 with the line 6 shortboard for the same price as the AVT150 on special. It totalled $1500 AUD all up with a pair of schaller strap locks, im not sure how much that is in USD, but im assuming i got a good price considering the short board alone retailed at $700 AUD...

I know it sounds stupid, ive asked many bass players and they just laugh at the though. But has anyone ever made a bass tremelo system?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2384&item=7325980121&rd=1 look at the picture of the headstock and check where the locknuts for the floyd rose are... whats going on there? do you think someone has just chucked on a floyd rose without routing etc? also... any ideas what...

im going to invest in a SD hum for the bridge position of my ibanez sa160qm, i was looking at H-11 and the dimebag signature. its to be used for drop tuned metal (down to c) and general shred. it must also be touch sensative for tapping etc. thanks guys
