Yes. We could be talking about 2 different things. Getting signed then what you do afterwards. Allan is a great guitar player and got signed because of it. Obviously he hasn't made much money because I guess there's not much of an audience for him. And I agree that VH was successful because of...

Allan was signed before VH so yeah he got his contract. Not sure what your point is. Perhaps some producer was also blown away by Holdsworth too....so...eh?

As a guitarist I never got these debates. Who cares about the singer? It's all about The Man, always was and always will be. Edit: I mean it's the only reason they were signed in the first place. Ted Templeman was completely blown away by Ed's thing. Yes they had other strong parts but that's...

The edging on that sidewalk is immaculate. The Soldano's look ok too.

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.

I agree. Has to be in the loop, after that it's just taste. I've had good luck with the MXR Carbon Copy but only in the loop.

I read EVH used a phase shifter so I bought one. A BOSS PHASER. :thumbsdown:

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...

"achieved the end result a different way" I think that pretty much sums it up.

Can't imagine that funky phased shifted part (Dance baby!) on anything other than Mean Streets. I'm glad they didn't release She's The Woman before Fair Warning.

Yes, sounds like a good test. I'm having trouble picturing where the paper goes. Right under the string in the slot to lift it up?

It works fine, no buzz. It just seems on every guitar the D string never sounds any good.

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

I've heard of this fix before can't see how it will work, I'm not exactly sure what the paper is doing. Did he elaborate?

I threw a TS in the loop once. What it did was completely kill the preamp tone and gain, not in a bad way but just replaced it, but that's not good either. So I'm playing sounding all Eddie like then I stomp the pedal and now I'm sounding like SRV. Thinking back I should've messed with the...
