    Thoughts on PRS SE Custom 24 Electric Guitar - Faded Blue Burst

    I had two guitars 3 years ago when I sold my home and everything else to move to Thailand. An Ibanez Prestige and a PRS SE Custom 24 with Floyd. I sold the Ibanez. I love this PRS!

    I’m looking for some songs with killer tones .

    The Shattered Fortress by Dream Theater! Great rhythm and lead tones and probably my favorite song by them!

    Craigslist Ibanez Prestige question\price check.

    So I have this guitar for sale and not getting any bites. This area is not big on higher end equipment as I've had to drop prices before, but I thought I had pretty good prices listed for a top notch Prestige. Am I wrong?

    Tube amp gurus, help please

    I turned on my 50 watt 5153 today and no sound. There was no pop and there is no burning smell. Checked fuse and it is ok. Put headphones on through headphone jack, nothing. Tubes are maybe 5-6 months old and I only play a few hours a week. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Anyone here balancing the triodes on their preamp tubes?

    Hi all! Retubing my 50 watt 5153 and I am curious whether any of you have the triodes balanced? Seems like the tube sellers are saying yeah and the guitarists are saying nay. What say you?

    Got a new PRS SE Custom Floyd- Some thoughts

    Some observations I would like to make. The good: Seems to be built very well, is a beautiful guitar. Plays very good for a Korean made guitar. Sounds really good through my 5153 50 watt. The bad: Pickup selector is in about the worst place it could be for...

    Is there a way to tell if an EH EL34 is hard, medium or soft

    Time to change the tubes in my Laney Pro Tube Lead 50 combo and I want to use the same tubes which are Electro Harmonix EL 34EH. Is there any way to tell if they are hard, soft or medium? No markings on the tube other than EL 34.

    Received my Washburn Parallaxe today.

    Initial look was beautiful! Wine Burst finish looked great. Then I got into better light and noticed a bunch of pock marks on the arm rest and one between pickup and bridge. Also swirl marks over most of the guitar on the finish, even on the stephen's cutaway on the black paint on the upper...

    Washburn Parallaxe, anyone played one

    Pulling the trigger on a new guitar this week. Was pretty much settled on a Sterling Petrucci model but came across the Parallaxe series from Washburn. Seems like a lot of guitar for the money. A couple of reviews, all good, but that's all. Anyone play or have one of these yet?

    PRS SE Custom 24 vs Sterling JP100

    Got some giftcards for MF and these are the two I am looking at in the pricepoint I am willing to pay. Can anyone tell me if they have tried both, or just one along with your thoughts. Been playing Ibby's for 22 years and want to get something new to go along with the one I have. Both seem like...

    THR10X... Who likes it?

    I got one last week and it really a fun little amp to play. Has plenty of good tones in there and the fx are decent enough. My only gripe, and I don't know if this is just mine, but man, the bass on it is unusable. Its all fine as long as you don't do any palm muting chugging. The speakers cant...

    Does Sweetwater honor competitor coupons?

    Just curious. Apparently they don't charge tax for Ca. residents and MF does.

    Which multi effect floorboard are you using?

    I am looking for a multi-effect floorboard. Don't need the amp models as it will be going into 5150 3 50 watt head. For the guys that use these, what do you like and why? don't want to go over $500-$600. Thanks!

    Are 80's GFTPM mags worth anything?

    I have a boatload of Guitar For The Practicing Musician magazines and was curious if they are worth anything, or just obsolete because of internet?
