I just couldn`t come to terms with the EMG`s in the Jackson, not bright enough. They had such a high signal strength and absolutely no noise at all, just to dark for what I wanted.
that top is a Flamed maple with a translucent Amber top, just like EVH used for years. This is sort of my tribute to him in a round about way. The neck is unfinished spalted maple, and a smaller radius than the Jackson, but sweet none the less.

That is the new JS32T, about time they put the shark fins on those, and they added a gig bag.. Good deal Joe..
Just negotiated a trade, giving up one of my Charvels for a Peavey Transtube Supreme head. Making the swap tomorrow, have looked for one of these for a long time, finally got one locally...

The new JS series King V. The grey one on there site. 
I think its gonna be worth it man. It was only like 358$. Jackson is always fucking great.
I ALSO found what I THINK is a first run 2 channel Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier at the instrument store.......
Does anyone know how rare those are and how amazing they are....? Its only like 1,500$.......

I know between your GST & PST your taxes are much higher than ours. But right now the dollar value is almost equal. Either way, if you`ve got the cash to spare, it`s probably a good investment.

The original Dual Rectifiers were only two channel, so that is a farely rare find, I`d work on them on that price though, seems a bit steep for an amp that`s 20 years old, maybe around 1000.00, now is that Canadian or American dollars? Shouldn`t matter since the Canadian dollar is almost equal to ours now.

Nononononononono stop right there.
Dont ever buy another Spider amp again unless its the Spider Valve mk 2 amp.
Basically everything is better than a Spider amp. I have a Spider 3 as well.

I need an opinion here.
Peavey has just released a 50 watt , single 12 combo of the 6505. they seem to be going for around 6 bills. Does anyone think that is a good price? |

Wah pedals can be a curse or a blessing, but if it is opening up new avenues to your playing, by all means wail away !
The JB is a good choice , versatile pickup for all styles of music.

Joe
Both amps are Rectifier amps, meaning that they use a recitifier tube to control voltage going into the power amp tubes. This gives the tone a somewhat "spongy" sound.Which is a sought after tone., it gives a type of natural compression and doesn`t allow the tubes to quite peak as they would if being run by a "Silicon Diode" aka a capacitor, to control the voltage .
The Silicon Diode will give a sharper tone to the tubes as it`s power reserve is much higher and will not peak like a rectifier will.well, atleast within reasonable limits anyway.
The Road King gives you a choice between the Rectifier or the Silicon diode, the Dual or Triple Rectifier`s don`t. So it depends on what you`re looking for tone wise....Thick and Spongy (Rectifier) or Sharp and slightly more articulate (Silicon Diode)
Note worthy is that most of the influential recordings were used using a "Rectifier" type of amp whether it be an old Marshall, Mesa Boogie or an old Fender.

I like the Duncan Distortion, The Dimebucker, and the Bare Knuckles are cool as hell if you have the budget. The Jackson J90C is a good one (if you can find one), and as for DiMarzio, I haven't used them in over 20 years. I has SD's in my 76 Les Paul, and my Dad has X2N's in his, but I had a hell of a time getting any mids out of the SD's and the X2N's weren't too bad but I could hardly play his set up anyway....

Glenn and KK also use "active" pickups in their guitars, and some of the personality of the pickups are lost when using a wireless. I have a guitar with the same pickups, and there is a slight difference when switching between corded or wireless.
There are guitarists out there (Glenn and KK included) that have stuff they no longer use connected in their systems, but they don't dare remove it for fear of altering their sound. A guitar player's quest for tone is eternal, so if you like what you have, you leave it alone.
Personally, I go wireless, because a 20 foot cord can make one MISERABLE pretzel knot.....

I don't play guitar so I have no idea if it's a sound or guitar issue or his personal preference. I miss how they used to change sides during a show and it just seems that because Glenn is corded, he doesn't have the freedom to move around as much. Thanks! |

I hope you don't have any problems switching back, filing the nut may change your intonation, and having strings that heavy under that tension may also bow your neck, so DO NOT try to get it in standard tuning.
The next time they are out of your brand of strings, try something with the same string gauge as you normally use. If you are not sure what they are, cut the string size guide out of the package and keep it in your wallet.
I work in the steel industry, my friend... And we have a little saying that you should probably remember (this is something that fits all too much of life today)....
Those who CAN, do.... Those who CAN'T, manage....
As long as the strings are not bronze, you can use any other type in a pinch, as long as you match your sizes properly....

I was just looking for my regular light or medium gauge nicklewound strings for metal and rock.
I don't know much about strings yet so i asked about these cool looking FLATwound ones and the fucking MANAGER of the store said there all the same......
Obviously he was lying to make me buy the more expensive Flatwound ones, or he honestly knows jack shit about music and its instruments.
Flatwound strings are NOOOOOOOT the same as regular strings. There JAZZ strings. TThere completely smooth, hard to bend, extremely dull, has no balls.
And these were medium gauge, and oh my god, there the biggest fucking medium gauge strings I've ever seen. I had to file down the slots in the nut on my guitar. I tried not to make them deeper because that would fuck other strings up once I switch back, but I just tried to widen them so they'd fit.
And I can't tune higher than C.......
Looks like its Rammstein and Rob Zombie for me for a few weeks. |
