    Archon 50 vs Orange Rockerverb

    I thought this would be a fun comparison to make since these amps have some similarities but they are also quite unique in their own ways. They both have 2 channels (clean and high gain) so they are well suited for similar styles, they are both 50 watts so equally as powerful etc. Despite being...

    One Guitar vs 53 Amps (MT15 & Archon 50 included)

    Haha, I'll keep it in mind!

    One Guitar vs 53 Amps (MT15 & Archon 50 included)

    Every once in a while as my amp collection grows, I like to do something a little crazy.... In this past year I got a Gibson Les Paul Custom. It's probably my favorite guitar! I basically wanted to hear how this guitar sounds through my entire amp collection. No clean tones, just one high gain...

    Thanks guys! :)

    Archon 50 = nailed it!

    Woohoo! I got an Archon 50 and it's totally awesome! I had never tried an Archon before, I just heard clips and I tried some virtual emulations here and there. My takeaway was that the Archon has a very fat sound with rich and full mids and a thick bottom end, so not too tight. There seemed to...

    57/08 pickups for rock and heavy stuff

    Thanks for chiming in everybody! I think I'll keep 'em in for now ;)

    57/08 pickups for rock and heavy stuff

    Cheers! One of the reasons for my doubt is that I use this guitar for more than just heavy stuff. So I also like it for more vintage crunchy tones. If I change the pickups to something more modern sounding I'm afraid it might take away from that a bit...

    57/08 pickups for rock and heavy stuff

    Hey everyone, I've had my PRS SC-58 for a while now and I love the guitar a lot. The 57/08 pickups are interesting. They're obviously more vintage sounding, so voiced like old PAF pickups. I think they work pretty well for heavier rock and even metal but they do have a unique sound. I'm just...

    DNGD: SC58 & SE Zach Myers

    I tried some vintage rock tones with my SC58 and my Marshall SV20H. Sounds pretty good:

    Tour of my guitar collection! (5 PRS's included)

    Thanks! I couldn't be happier with what I have now. I certainly can't complain :)

    Tour of my guitar collection! (5 PRS's included)

    Hey everyone! I just posted a little tour of my guitar collection. I have about 27 guitars or so, 5 of which are PRS/PRS SE guitars and I absolutely love those! So this is just for casual fun! :) The PRS portion begins at the 16:33 mark: I'm gassing for more PRS guitars though.... ;)

    Trying that 'nu metal' sound with my SC58 and Mesa Rectos...

    Hey everyone, I got my beautiful PRS SC58 a week or two ago. I traded my Ibanez RGT320Z for it and I'm super stoked about it but that's another story. So when I think of PRS I tend to think of bands from the late 90s and early 2000s, you know, those 'nu metal' bands like Incubus, Limp Bizkit...

    Zach Myers replacement bridge/studs? (low-E sustain)

    Maybe it does have to do with the nut after all. Not sure. I'm really nitpicking here because I just picked up the guitar and it sounded pretty good... Maybe I should just shut up and play! :)

    Zach Myers replacement bridge/studs? (low-E sustain)

    Hi all, As I recently posted in my NGD thread, I got a used Zach Myers recently (the green semi-hollow one). It's truly a great guitar. It plays great, looks great and it sounds really good too. I do feel though that the sustain of the low e-string mainly is being held back a little bit...

    MT15 in-depth

    Cheers! No issues with this one at all but note that I never use FX loops. I had another one before this that I had to exchange for this new one because of a weird oscillating noise. Could have been the tubes maybe? I have no experience at all with biasing amps unfortunately...
