I just can't help it, I've been a minimalist in my personal life for several years. I just don't need too many things in life to be happy. I once (just a few months ago for a few months) threw my bed aside and slept on the floor, sounds odd but I had the best sleep and would feel very...

While talking about my epi in one of my earlier threads somebody mentioned Agile guitars. Anyhow I checked them out and DANG those look very good for the price...I even saw a 7-string I am interested in and Their LPs look awesome too. Is it too good to be true or are they pretty good guitars...

Anyone have any experience with Parker Guitars? They are weird looking but I think they seem cool...even the lower end ones have one piece body and necks with ebony fretboards...I wonder if this is really true. The website is so specific I don't think they made a mistake.

Anyhow, aside from the immature :banana: wood comment I do have a serious question concerning wood. I haven't really dealt much with Alder I've had more Mahogany and Basswood guitars. So you Alder lovers teach me a lesson or two about what makes Alder great as opposed to the latter two (not...

I am looking at getting either a Schecter C-1 Plus or an Ibanez SZ series guitar. Any experiences with either? Which was more versatile? Which was warmer? Which was better built/better overall quality, etc? I'm aware that the Plus has a 24.75" neck and the SZ series have 25.1" necks so I know...

I forgot how much thinner an Epi Goth LP Studio is compared to say the Standard/Custom line so how, if at all, will this affect things in regards to my upcoming SD purchases. I guess what I'm really concerned about is will the tone be as full as the fatter cousins or will it be thinner sounding...

Not to be Blasphemous towards Mr. Duncan but why is this supposed to be such a great combo? I've never experienced it so I'm not knocking it I'm sincerely asking. Something I've noticed on some of the posts that I've started is whenever the topic is about "which custom is better" or "how about...

In my first ever post I mentioned I was a former EMG user interested in changing over to Duncans. The problem is there are too many Duncans to choose from for the bridge position, I'm confident in my neck choices so I don't need help there. So, the question on the table is has anyone mixed an...

How easy is it to install passives into an Epi LP? I was an EMG guy for so long and I would take it to a pro to be installed (I tried to do it myself on my 2nd go around :argh: needless to say I was suprised it was salvageable)

Does anyone here know what each genre means under the Tone Wizard. More specifically what is SD's opinion on those certain genres, I know what they are but it might not be what SD thinks of them. Does Hard Rock/Metal refer to the 70s/80s solo oriented stuff (Metallica, Pantera, and hair band...

I have an Epiphone Les Paul Goth which means it's all mahogany...no alder, no maple, just straight up mahogany which means it is pretty dark. When it comes to the Custom line which would be a better choice for a dark guitar. I play Hard Rock, Alt. Metal, and regular Alternative styles. My...

First off I'm new here and am excited to be involved with this forum. Alright down to business: I just got an Epi Goth Les Paul and was wondering what a great SD combo would be for it. Being an EMG man for the last several years I've never really thought about passives, but I want to change it...
