    Sorry Papa

    It's always a tough decision to part ways with a best friend, but for some reasons I have to sell my beloved Herbert :aww: I was impressed with the tone since day one, and I'm very glad I had the chance to enjoy it during those years. Don't worry it's sold to one of my buddies so it's not...

    How much isthis guitar worth?

    Giving my Flying-V a new life !! Fixed bridge to Floyd rose

    I got an "old" guitar here that needs some love. It was actually made by a luthier here, but since the head stock broke, and the repair job wasn't done professionally, I got it for a steal a few years ago. It's a 7 string old-school-flying-V, all in mahagony, with ebony fret board. Scale...

    Just in case we needed another HAGEN opinion..

    I played HAGEN half an hour yesterday and I was amazed :rock: :rock: Every channel just sounds unbelievable. when you max out the gain it's still so tight, (you hear all your flaws) and yet not compressed... i'm not too much of a clean/mid gain player, I mostly played chan 3 and 4 and OMG...

    I'm rushing to play the " Em - C " arpegio progression in this Testament song.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iwfpeq01Dn0 (it's at 2;06 they're tuned to D, so it's Dm, Bb ) I play it like that, the first arp is clean and tight, but it's the second one, I lost timing with the lil "slide"...
