So it’s my first time owning a Tele ( used) and I noticed that the bridge pickup wasn’t working and I taped on the pickup with the screwdriver That I was using to adjust the height of it. So for some reason it started working, sorry for the stupid question but can the pickup be damage by doing...

I will like to know the ins and outs about amps, what makes them sound like that and also Eq pedals ( the numbers are confusing) An example of something I will like to know is, why is it possible to get a master of puppets tone on a 5150 iii without an eq and other amps you do need one. ( seen...

I tried to lower the pickups but I lose attack. I also lowered the Mids, presence and treble but I lose Brightness on the middle and neck pickup. I know that works but I don’t wanna be adjusting the settings every minute. Is this normal??

Yesterday I just received my first tube amp A peavey 6505mh and a 2x12 80w with blue marvel speakers. Today I was ab testing the amp with my vypyr vip 3. What I noticed on the vypyr was a really like super lol small latency. Is this placebo or something actually wrong with the vypyr? Playing...

What do you guys prefer? What is more convenient a computer or hardware? Does hardware ( helix, boos gt1000, pod etc..) give you better results than a cheap audio interface?

So I went to guitar center to try out some katanas plus the artist. They did sound better than my vypyr on the clean channel but on the distortion side my vypyr wins ( personally). So i was like mmmm meh maybe worth it Trying to tweak at home but I was lazy to that lol After that when I was...

I own a peavey vypyr vip 3 amp and love the distortion on the 6505 but the other amps I don’t like them. The cleans are not good, can’t access the noise gate ( set by default ) and limited functions adjusting the effects. Also to much low end coming out from the amp with the bass knob set at 0...

I like all types of music including world music Mexican, German etc.. I’m going to focus now more in playing than gear ( biggest mistake ever lol) So what do you guys think of these books that I’m thinking of purchasing and making a routine out Of them. For rock and metal: the Troy Stetina...

Any YouTube video explaining why you can use/how to apply it for example playing an A minor pentatonic scale over a C chord progression? Don't how to explain it. I thought that if you're in the key of C you have to play scales that are in C?

I took my lonestar MIM to a tech because the bridge pickup is noisy when palm muting ( like a hum, some static) but when the single coil is active on the bridge it gets a little quite but don't like the tone. Also on the g string when fretting higher notes it makes this tremolo effect noise. So...

I have a peavey vypyr vip 3 solid state amp does it need maintenance like a tube amp? i know removing dust is one thing lol but anything else i need to know? like should i replace the speaker every year? etc... thank you

Ok I have the money to buy the Ax8 but not the money for a tube amp, cab plus torpedo live for bedroom level. I still play with my plugins ( Amplitube 4, Th3 and Bias). So my guitar teacher has been telling me to get something better like a tube amp because it will help me hear my notes better...
