    Took some stuff off pedalboard

    Wow... the DIG gets a lot of praise. May I ask, did you prefer the simplicity of the Dispatch Master or did you find the delay sounded better?

    what little jazz picks you guys liking?

    I really like the carbon fiber jazz IIIs. I rarely have to worry about them slipping when I'm playing live and get sweaty.

    What guitar are you playing today?

    You were an ESP Artist!? Sick! I love the body shape of the Phoenix. And dude, you read my mind! That Vintage White (w/the Duncan Custom and P-90 Phat Cat) one is awesome looking. I just wish they offered an MIJ version. I've noticed sometimes these MIJ ones from the early 2010s appears on...

    What guitar are you playing today?

    Woah... I never see ESP branded Phoenix guitars. Awesome! I wish ESP would offer the Phoenix as an option again. I think they only have a LTD version at the moment. Every now and then on reverb an old ESP standard series Phoenix will appear, but they are frequently in rough shape.

    What's The Deal With Swamp Ash ?

    I think that's actually why we've seen Fender offer pine as a lightweight alternative option to the alder bodied American Professional Series II Strats. Weight of most alder bodied strats by comparison: I'm curious about pine as I love the idea of a guitar that is 7lbs or lighter. I'm...

    Friedman Vintage Plexi

    Agreed! He is so freakin' good. Amazing sense of feel. That said, I am really interested in hearing what people think of the amp when it comes out and how it compares to the Suhr SL67 and Metropoulos Metro-Plex.

    Gate-Talk

    I've been curious about this one as well. There doesn't seem to be a ton of info/reviews online. I kinda wish Fractal would release a dedicated gate pedal haha. I have the FM3 and I agree... the gate works really well. It's the only gate that doesn't seem to need any adjustment when I move from...

    Best Boost Pedal

    Yeah, damn... that Koko Boost V1 will definitely be my next purchase (y) Yeah, the Maxon OD808 and Boss SD-1 have literally always been what I've used. I've never tried a Klon for example. Tempted to try a Chiron.

    Les Paul + Suhr Aldrich + Wizard = Win

    Sounds great and good luck with the healing! By the way, I just realized you're the same one that did a really sick demo of the Friedman BE-OD several years back (y)

    Yamaha guitars are highly underrated

    I was watching John Browne's video on the Yamaha Revstar Professional RSP20 and it was cool to see it in a more metal context. I noticed it's listed as having "Jumbo Stainless Steel" frets. Does anyone know if they're similar in size/dimensions to the kind you'll find on an ESP Eclipse or...

    Bogner Helios JB45 Clips

    Nice! I still listen to those high gain clips you have of that GF SL. So rich and full sounding.

    Bogner Helios JB45 Clips

    Nice demo! I'm curious, you've had a chance to play a number of Bogners and I was wondering if the Goldfinger Superlead still compares favorably to them. I remember you having a lot of high praise for (and inspiring clips of!) the Goldfinger Superlead and as a result it's always been on the...

    Judas Priest new tune.

    I really enjoyed the song as well. Excited for the new album. Is that just a flanger on the guitar at the intro?

    !!!!!CRAZY DEAL ALERTS!!!!!

    Gah! I can't believe I didn't jump on this. I saw the deal after getting home from work just now and decided to make dinner first. Poor decision. Someone grabbed it. Don't know when I'll see another brand new ESP Original for under $3k :(

    The 2024 Live Rig...

    Sounds killer! Great tone. Just played a gig Friday night for the first time using the Captor X and a modded Marshall JCM800. Was using an Ownhammer Mesa IR. Was pretty impressed with the sound you can get going direct FOH with the Captor X.

    Friedman Vintage Plexi

    Just adding to the chorus that these initial clips sounds excellent! Also agree that I like how it seems to have a good deal of gain (y) Really curious to hear this, the Suhr SLs, and the new Metro Metroplex MKII back to back.

    What gear are you planning to buy in 2024?

    Man, I picked up a Mark IV Rev B this last year. You're right about those prices! I remember years ago when you could get the Mark IV and Mark III especially for cheap. That said, when I plugged it in for the first time and tried out the lead channel I knew right away it was a keeper. That lead...

    Boss SD-1 with “Heavy EJ” mod

    Dude... great playing! Like the tone, the phrasing, the alternate picking (y)

    What gear are you planning to buy in 2024?

    Would like to pick up a Soldano Astro and a Ground Zero amp if he ends up making a smaller headshell 50 watt. Wish the Soldano had a reactive load. Oh well. Also, would like to pick up the new Ibanez AZ prestige in sodalite. I have a AZ prestige in flat white that I got from Ibanezrules...
