    Home Practice Amp

    All of my amps are home practice amps, from my rocker 32, Dork terror, Crush 20, ID 260, HT5 and Tweaker 88. Also have a micro Dork on my board. With the Egnater 88 watt amp, I have found if I turn the gain to 6am and dime the master volume for that channel, then start slowly adding volume until...

    First guitar build, SG Clone

    Got tremendously busy at work and had to shelve my SG project for the summer, then Irma hit. I wound up going to the Keys and working on my parent's house for 8 months. Once I got home I realized I hated the red I picked out so I grabbed this metallic blue and hosed the neck and body down a bit...

    Blackstar ID 260

    I was getting bored with my Fender champion 100, which is not one of Fender's finest offerings, but its clean tones are pretty. My other amp is one I travel with and while loud for what it is and great sounding, it's only 20 watts (Orange Crush 20) I dig the Orange tones, especially for rock...

    Need amp suggestions

    I have the Orange 35 and love it, but also just picked up the Blackstar ID260,which may better suit your needs. Orange has a unique tone, which is all its own the Blackstar can be greatly manipulated to sound like pretty much anything. There's also the ID Core series which is a little more...

    Talk Me Out of This . . . Buying A Low-Budget Fender Strat?

    Buy it,like someone just said, A Strat is a Strat. Life is too short not to enjoy the fruits of your labor and certainly when you have an opportunity to not buy from GC, please do so.

    First guitar build, SG Clone

    I need to get a picture or two up of the painted body. I'm not happy as some of the veneer bubbled when the paint activated the glue under the veneer. Like I said up thread, had I known this was a veneer body, I'd have never purchased the thing, but it's a mission now. I'm going to get some...

    DIMEBAG on the SG, AMERICAN HERO, gone too soon....

    Love Dimebag. He always seemed like a nice kid, too. What an absolute waste. I still enjoy watching him play, however.

    Budgie-Breadfan

    A beautiful red SG is prominently featured in this studio video. Budgie is a vastly underappreciated group. Just great stuff

    SG guitar kits that aren't rubbish?

    As a carpenter, I can attest to the fact that more glue isn't better, it can actually be a detriment. Too little is also a bad thing, but too much on a guitar fails for the same reason and will also give you a build up that will throw your neck joint off and possibly create vibration, not...

    Any solid state amp users?

    I stayed at my girlfriends house this weekend and brought my Orange Crush 20 with me. At home I generally play in my office, which is a 10x11 room with an 8' ceiling. Mrs Robinson has a rather large living room with a ceiling about 18', so I wasn't really expecting much in the way of sound...

    Torn between the Blackstar Club 40 and ID Combo

    I'm fortunate enough to work close to the Chicago metro area and there is no shortage of large music shops filled with amazing gear and snobs who work behind the counters who only like what they have lol. I need to make time soon and go play a few amps before I blow my amp money on my income taxes.
