    BOSS TE-2 Tera Echo demo

    Got this pedal in the mail a couple days ago and tonight was literally my first time playing it. Really cool sounds I've never experienced before. I've been running it in front of the amp instead of in the effects loop because in front the effect is much more drastic. In the loop the pedal is...

    Cheapy Ibanez RG - Back from under the BED!

    Follow up from my previous thread, I rescued this RG3EX1 from an older guy who had given up on learning the guitar. After a cleaning, setup, and pickup swap... it's back from under the bed! The guitar sounds great though my JVM. Just like a previous RG I played years ago. Lots of cut, very...

    Cheapy Ibanez RG

    I'm looking at finally dipping into the RG pool after years of procrastination. Been kind of wanting to try a thin, flat neck...but not toooooo thin. This is the guitar I'm aiming to pick up tomorrow. https://reverb.com/item/6958294-ibanez-rg3ex1-2005-red-burst-flametop-hardtail-guitar...

    Hotone Purple Wind clip

    Here's a short clip of the 5w Nano Hotone Purple Wind. The amp is based off a 59' Marshall Plexi. First the amp is played with the gain maxed and no pedals. Then I add a DOD Gunslinger Distortion pedal with it's Level and Gain dials at 12:00, High & Low dials at 13:00. The amp is played...

    New 112 cab day

    So I was looking for a 112 extension cab and was considering the PRS MT112, but for at $500 I didn't think it was really worth it. First of all it wasn't deep enough IMO, and second, although I love Vintage 30s I didn't want one in a single 112 cabinet because that usually doesn't end up...

    Crybaby Q Zone review & clip

    A one take Johnny clip of my brand new MXR Custom Shop Crybaby Q Zone. Man I love this pedal! It has an incredible amount of different tones in it. The pedal has many controls with very wide sweeps. A low, mid & high voicing switch, a boost dial, a bandpass dial, a Q adjustment dial and an...

    EMG Retroactive Hot 70 set

    I know they sell the ceramic Super 77 and alnico Fat 55 individually, but what is in the Hot 70 set? Is it a 77 bridge and 55 neck? Can't seem to find any info on this.

    EVH 5150 III 50w review

    After spending a little time with my newest amp I can now offer a brief review. I've wanted one of these for years, particularly the 50w model, mainly due to size and cost. I found one used locally, and I had recently come into some free money so I paid $300 less than I should have I'm my mind...

    Just a low volume test clip. Damn, I was 20+ feet away and it still registered some pick noise. Sorry about that,

    Lace Red, Silver & Blue

    Never tried any Lace pickups, thinking of putting a loaded pickgaurd with this set in my Strat. Video examples sound...great. I like Fluffs youtube review. Is the Red bridge a single sized humbucker? Can it pull off crunchy, fat high gain? Hair/thrash metal...fast tremelo picking?
