The guitar string (thread)

josh.dookie, Ever played a genuine PRS? IF you think the SE sweet. Fadda lawd.
Shyam from live n loud have a blue flame maple. Can't remember the model.
Strats have a signature tone that no other guitar ever could copy. No matter how they tried.
Shyam plug that into a Marshall and start to shred without a wah pedal. The guitar actually pull it off jed. It get the tone. That ended an argument between him and I that the strat sound can only be made with Fenders.

Yup my buddy from BRC has a PRS. Every day for the 5 months it took to make and ship he would be updated.
It's truly an amazing instrument.. I jsut picket up a used(badly) Strat, squier 2series.

buzz, check ultimate guitar. Their lessons so well from nub to pro.

Anyone knows anyone locally with a black Kramer Imperial? I know there's at least one. I imported it.

Quad rails iymc. 4 single coil sized humbuckers paired off. Yep, EIGHT COILS!!! When I tune to C and ring out a chord All the jumbies would run outta Jumbo Gym. Anyways, it was big as fcuk and I couldn't sit and play it. I tried my best because it sounded so sweet and menacing, but eventually gave up and Gave Shane (AudioCon) to sell it for me. Anyone knows the lucky soul that bought this?

wdf...it sweet :shock:

Or n I also own a Abilene guitar, never really heard of that b4, twas my first guitar, as well as an Ibanez Dreadnought Acoustic, very sweet guitar, a lil rough on the fingers, but she produce a really sweet sound! Saw the Kramer brand around.. Not really a fan of it!

You feel shipping on a 1x12 is bad?
I had to send down a 4x12 cabinet and Mesa Boogie Head. The shipping was killer but there was no duty on it.

If you need tubes by them yourself from http://thetubestore.com/

Or you could just go Mesa/Boogie... self biasing FTW. The investment pays back for itself.

Shyam has a PRS Swamp ash special, which is specifically built to get into strat tones, ash body, all maple neck etc. It could have been that one, but for sure the average mahogany neck and body PRS's wont get there.

evokilla I could still link you with a brand new piece of crap vox valvetronix I know selling, with those modelling features, just dont mention it to me too much when it stops working after 8 months

BTW yall I have some stuff hitting Simons over the next few weeks, starting yesterday.

It cost me about 200 usd to package both the head and the cab in separate boxes and ship to a fright forwarder in california from colorado.
I needed to get a custom box built for the cabinet with padding and stuff.

Self biasing makes changing tubes easy. Once you buy tubes from the company that makes the amp, you change them like light bulbs. You can change out the tubes from EL34 to 6L6 by the flip of a switch. But all of that is pretty pointless if you dont plan to use it. I may have switched out my tubes once or twice for the different tone.
