    Dirty Textures

    Excellent topic, I will be learning from this thread as I am now looking for a pedal to plug into my live setup (HB SE + Cube street) for the odd occasion I'll need to rock a solo with my vocalist. I've never had any problem dialing up a smoother gain on my Mark 5 with the 6L6's but I don't use...

    Trying to get Santana on my PRS-MESA BOOGIE RECTO VERB 25. I have a few pedals but still can't get a real good clean Santana sound. Need help.

    OP you're lucky enough to be hearing from someone that did exactly what you are trying to do with a PRS & a Recto, and did some Carlos tribute gigs, so it can be done. Contrary to what many believe Carlos does not max out his gain to achieve his tone, it's usually set around 6-7 on that early...

    The low threshold to entry for guitar

    I've held off on my 2 cents on this debate until I ran across this. While I think always learning, when it comes to music (especially Jazz) is a necessary and blessed thing, but music theory in the book sense is not a requirement to play Jazz. I play a handful of standards & Bossa Nova tunes...

    Do you ever bevel you picks?...and what your go to shape?

    I'm pretty exclusive to RedBear, one of the prime bevelers of custom picks, but I only use the non-beveled ones. To me pre-beveled picks glide over the strings like well broken in ones, but the articulation goes to shyt, making my (too many note:rolleyes:) runs sound like mush. Forces me to...

    Metal guitar skills and mating probabilities: a study

    Well I admit I didn't read the whole article but the gist of it being related to time spent practicing on the guitar has little to do with it. Or the debate between chuggers & shredders, cause only old farts like me listen to cats that play too many notes. It all boils down to the men to women...

    The Signature PRS Tone

    Outside of Carlos plugged into a Mesa it's really hard to quantify a distinct PRS sound because the product line over the years has been so varied in design and components, unlike the clear difference between the bite & edge of a bolt on Fender, and the thick, rich tone of a Les Paul. I had to...
