Was never aware of Reverbs practices but I've looked up some stories and it seems like they can be hit or miss . The used market is weird with instruments . I've only ever traded mine in to local stores where I've bought them from for credit for a new instrument , but if I had to sell stuff it...
Jesus I'm jealous . Been eyeballing these but I have a NG3 on the way if I ever even get it at this rate . My BTB is incredible and I love every part of it , and even though it's a 6 string it's still pretty forgiving . I imagine going to a 5 with fanned frets would be a breeze to play .
I'm...
I'm pretty sure Jackson makes 7 string alder bodies with luminays . Let me go check .
Edit : Pro Series Dinky 7 or Misha Mansoor . No evertune and basswood / ash body . Otherwise they're what you're looking for . I know ESP has a fair bit of Evertune models , but it seems like you might need to...
I've gotten a thorough email describing the issues with production of guitars / basses from a major company and it was surprising how bad things are .
To keep things short , everyone is backlogged , and everyone is raising prices to accommodate the increases in shipping and manufacturing ...
BC Rich makes some wicked looking basses . Would love to try one .
I would agree Gibson would be the most suitable if anyone were to buy them , but I'm sure BCR has it covered . They're sort of like Rickenbacker in a sense , I think they're comfortable with their customers and the niche they...
Seen them live front row on the Trilogy Tour with Silent Planet , Currents , Greyhaven and Anthems . Great show . They played Celestial Floods and Dark , my 2 favorites by them . Their most recent album was by far the best metalcore release in years in my opinion , flawless front to back . The...
Killswitch , hell ya . Might see them live if I get tickets for that LoG tour .
Also , Disarm The Descent is their best album , real headbanger stuff ... yes quote me about how I'm wrong haha
Would be interesting to see what he means by " live " sounding . Like raw sound and not over...
Northlane - Obsidian
Bad Omens - TDOPOM
Profiler - Self Titled EP
Void Of Vision - Chronicles II
Greyhaven - This Bright & Beautiful World
Thornhill - Heroine
Thornhills album is a major turn from their previous work , but done extremely well and refreshing , as well as great live ; I will be...
What's said above . Disappointing on a new guitar for sure , but it isn't a total dud yet . I'm sure you can manage to make it posh again , sounds like you know what you're doing with maintenance .
I know Ibanez is really trying to push these especially with Ichika on board and having a...
Was about 3 feet from James and Kirk when they played here in Vancouver . Caught a pick Lars threw as well . Probably the highlight of my life .
In case anyone didn't know , they filmed Through The Never here , so I guess they like Vancouver . Least to say the energy at that show was insane ...
That warp is nothing you can barely tell . Can you feel it ? I'd try to forget about it because the more you think about it , the more you'll try and notice it . It's a Premium right ? How much did you get it for again ?
Don't they just clamp it down and bake it or something like that ? Can't exactly get a torch and heat it up like you're trying to bend pipe or something .
That's a decent deal . I'd go for it . Ibanez makes stable stuff and my used BTB is my favorite bass I own . I don't ever have to mess with the truss rod or anything so once you can get it where you like , I'm pretty sure you'll be fine .
You can always use it as a beater / practice bass too if...
Squier makes good stuff . It just seems like the consistency is hit or miss . The new line came in a local store and apparently they all needed major work out of the box before even being put on the floor . But the basses I've played were all extremely nice . The new Contemporary line is really...
Just wanted to add in my experience it could be personal preference with HOW it feels playing ; when I use a pick I'm playing extremely close to the neck , and sometimes I'll even hit the neck pickup if I'm playing a bit sloppy or over the top . Having just a bridge like in Music Man models or...
