    EMG pickups New look

    I agree! All though I made mine slightly "weathered" looking. I was playing with my new camera and recently took a picture of my guitar. (also notice the sig. lol)

    I saw Metallica the other week and happened to notice Hetfield was using what looked like a BFG guitar.

    What EQ Pedal to get??

    I finally got my MXR 10 band eq. What's really different about this is that the unit checks for clipping. I guess the BOSS 6 band did this automatically? It seems like I have to lower the gain knob alot in order to have it not make a "choppy" noise indicating that there is clipping. any advice?

    EMG 81+85 vs 60+60

    EMG 81 in bridge + 85 in neck Versus EMG 60 in bridge + 60 in neck Overdriven, the 60 produces a slightly higher mid, which I think could be reproduced by placing an EQ pedal in between the amp and an 81 pickup or in the loop. Just push the mids overall just a little bit. Think Rage Against...

    Graphic EQ tone adjustments: a basic tutorial

    great post. When I first got my EQ pedal about a year ago, one of the things I did to help myself learn the ranges was to cut everything BUT the lowest frequencies and see how I "liked" them. I slowly raised the next bar and noticed the differences as I adjusted it. Then the next one. Do the...

    MXR EQs... 6-band compared to 10-band

    I THINK I've decided to replace my (broken) BOSS 6band EQ with a MXR 10 band EQ because it comes with a power supply. But I think I'm going to have to bring my amp in and try each of them. In theory a 6 band EQ could be better than a 10 band EQ (or more) if the 6band EQ happens to adjust the...

    Metronome solutions

    After playing the Roland Microcube RX at the store, I thought the drum feature was just awesome. I want to follow the advice of getting a metronome or some sort of drum beat solution (preferably both) I checked out the loop station by Boss, that seems cool. I checked out a few metronomes such...

    Thoughts on buying these pickups?

    I got my two 60s but I don't want to install them yet without recording the 81+85 set. I want to record them under the same conditions with no extra bullshit like they do on pickup demos. They're like "this is what your guitar sounds like with a crappy 1980s-era drum loop" I want to do a...

    I "aged" the EMGs in my guitar.

    I used "metal spray paint" but I didn't spray it on.

    what about epiphone ?

    I was in my local shop and they had this brand "Jay Turser" guitars. I guess they used to make epiphones and lost the contract years ago. So now they're still making what amounts to "cheap guitars" but **** they're pretty good for the price tag. I was looking at their Les Paul version and it was...

    Welp my EQ died. But before I go replacing it.

    okay BobL, I really appriciate all of that feedback but I'm just a hobby musician. I'm even honest enough to admit that I'm not a very good one (but I'm working on it!) I'm not playing live. I'm not being recorded for an album. I don't consider myself to even be capable of keeping up with a band...

    Welp my EQ died. But before I go replacing it.

    Should I just buy a single EQ pedal or does it make sense to buy some sort of unit with multiple things in it? I mean if I'm already going to be spending at least $100, would it pay to just get somethin with more toys in it? How much higher of a price tag do you have to do in order to get a good...

    i want to do some crazy pickups mods

    when someone says they want to put a kill switch in the guitar, I think a new switch that only grounds the signal independent of the pickup switch. I want one but my EMGs are uber sensitive
