    Tone Zone vs. Super Distortion vs....?

    I've always like the SD but was quite surprised with the TZ and have been sticking with it ever since. Any other versions I should consider as an improvement or change? No honkers though, hate the honk, or wah sounding.

    How have you attained your rig knowledge?

    I gotta say for me, I didn't know crap before the internet, in hindsight I can't believe how much I know now, even just the basics. So is everyone here in the same boat? For me I live in a small Canadian city so there's not much in terms of guitar/amp culture, I guess most of what I learned...

    Anyone have trouble with your D string.

    I think that's the only string that never sounds good, muted or otherwise. Anyone else agree?

    Where to get a custom guitar built

    I'm a lefty so the market is limited which is why I might consider getting one made. Any suggestions or recommendations? Just looking for a modern V style with a floyd and a decent color.

    End of Eruption effect

    Anyone know of any different ways to achieve the same effect without the vintage gear? The fade out swirling growl at the very end. I'm not really sure how it's done exactly in the original but you'd think there would be a contemporary way, or maybe not. Thanks.

    Solo and # of bars questions

    I know a lot of people here gig, just wondering when you're soloing (note for note or improv) are you aware of where you are in terms of which bar you're at? It's quite easy if it's a distinctive chord progression, you can map out that the solo is the chord progression x2 or x4 etc. So then you...

    Volume issues with live solo pieces.

    I started doing Eruption for the past few months at gigs and noticed a few things. At home I can nail it start to finish but live I still pull it off but it's more difficult. The difference is the volume level. I noticed at louder levels everything feels different on the strings without the...

    DP-Knocking at your Backdoor Tone

    I find this to be one of the most fascinating solos I ever heard. Do you hear any effects on the guitar? At first I though it was pretty bare but then one day I threw some flange on my guitar and it started sounding similar. Also, if you watch the live version he's using a slide (What kind is...
