With Butala just put your stuff in the order form and be patient. I Have 1.5 Butala guitars and they are way better than the stuff I’ve got from KNE.

The X100B is the "old old" head Vai used. I had one of the reissues and got good sounds out of it. I got rid of it because when you would turn it on for the first time each day it would do a deafening hiss and I got sick of that. If the right deal popped up for an original Legacy I would give...

Chibson Dan More like POS

I played the single hum a few weeks ago and thought it was really good. The pickup while not the greatest of all time, is serviceable and sounded pretty much like I remember my old J90C sounding. I’m content with having that instead of a JB/DD

I dig it! I like that it sounds less round/tubby than an SLO.

ST Rules. From "How Will I laugh Tomorrow... to Suicidal For Life" is as about as good a 5 album run as any band ever had.

I was curious how much of that sort of work was actually done in the shop. Its nice to see that they are building them from the ground up. They will probably be in the running for my next "real" guitar

“It sounds even more tube-like than ever before!”

That's what came in V1 of my UK67. I'll be honest, I wound up pulling it, and I don't even remember what I replaced it with. Maybe an old "Perfect Connection" tube I had out of a Metaltronix M1000 I had many years ago.

This is so true, and frankly why I don't worry about the opinions of people on forums. Generally their mouths are writing cheques that their asses can't cash.

Nuno and DSLs is another good example. Pretty much all the good tones of history were done with gear that was relatively pedestrian at the time. It really wasn't until the late 80s that gear started to become unobtainium, and its kind of funny to think that with most bands, if you were able to...

Just confirming you have run the presence and eq all higher than they are in the photos ( I do see the note about the presence on " 9 and 10") I only say this because sometimes people want the knobs to be set a certain way, including SRV. I can't remember what amp it was but he wanted it to...

I've really gotten away from boosts, as for some reason they all just seem to impart a thing I don't like. At least when playing alone. When in a mix, it doesn't seem to matter as much. Nowadays I wind up going back to the ol' GE-7, as the TS stuff sounds too much like a TS, and the SD stuff...

Dang that’s awesome. And yes I think Jake had switched to ESP by that time.
