i'm using 10-46(light) now.
wanted to switch to 10-52 but sean said it might warp my neck, so i might reconsider

guthrie govan! ritchie kotzen (the inner galactic fusion experience)!

guys, if i buy a guitar from some1 in s'pore and ask him to send it here,
will the delivery fee expensive?

and will kastam tax me? ask me to go kastam there take and make me PAY ?

thnx .

Izzit? I stand corrected then, I myself am not familiar with Paco's stuff either lol.

But still, good music is good music, good call on Paco!

heres another fusion cd to check out if you can find it.
"Trio of Doom" CD feat. john mclaughlin, jaco pastorius and tony williams.

greg howe. . . mike stern. . . flectones. . . try and wiki it =) a whole list appears

Ive just changed my strings from D'addario 9-42 super light to Ernie Ball 10-46 light. After changing the strings, my FR tremolo 'buckled' coz the new heavier strings pull the FR so strong. Tried as much as I can, I cant make my FR horizontal as should. So, I had to add an extra spring to pull my FR to the proper horizontal position to counter the tension from the new heavier string set.

Also I did some adjustment to the truss rod coz on the lower strings eg low E string, buzzing occur at higher frets.

Preference on super light or light string set... ermm... still cant say for certain which one I prefer, but I do miss the super light on the thin high E and B strings.

like BB king once told another famous guitarist (at the moment, I can't think of the name)......

BB: Why are you playing with such thick strings?
Other guy: Makes my sound louder.
BB: If you want louder, just turn up the amplifier!

i find 9-42's too thin, i'm happy with 10-46 right now

Whaa??? SRV? Although I doubt he would say something like that.

but BB himself uses 10-54

anyone seen the alexi-200 "signature" guitar?
i think its kind of a rip off, doesn't even look like a signature.
doesn't have the pinstripes, or even a signature on the guitar, only ALEXI-200 on the truss rod cover.

guitar collection selling for RM2.8k IIRC. for that price i'd rather buy so many other guitars. its going for USD420 at musicians friend only(much more reasonable price)

while that danlion1 guy is selling it for RM1890.

coz its the more affordable version of the original, with or without an artist sig is a big difference! again, its ESP product~

even if its more affordable, it should at least have a signature on it

Hmm, what do you guys think about the Ibanez Valbee? Kinda tempted...

f***, i destroyed my guitar. damn frets have holes and are buzzing like a bee if i play the 6th, some frets do buzz also. but not that heavy.

shit i wonder how much it'd cost to refret that whole damn thing

not bad. quite nice sounding imo.
my fren got 1 and he likes it.

long time tak kacau this forum, wanna ask if my pinch harmonic is not loud or 'obvious' enuf..issit because of the pickups as well?hmm or the distortion settings?

talking about the strings...i suggest u guys change the gauge after u master the current gauge in terms of everything...

If you want the Zakk-esque or even dimebag's pinch squeals, you gotta use Humbuckers in the bridge position first of all.

And it helps if you use thicker strings and drop tuned as well to get the rich P.O.D......
