Crazy Train Solo Battle Bluewolfgang Vs Wayward_Son

[Wayward_Son]

I actully love my tone zone! Amazing pickup, I wanted a guitar with only 1 pickup and just a volume control, but didn't want your usual noisy bridge pickup, and although you cant tell from the crazy train solo it really provides lol.

lol I may never change necks, the neck on there is extremly fast!! Great "raw" neck feel (no finish on back of neck) and a real high quality product. And not only the playablity but the looks!! The dragon on the neck gets a load of attention .

I think someday I will probably build another guitar but with something like a big ole' hocky stick neck on it, probably reverse to (sexy!!!) and then do some crazy custom paint on it, who knows!

And nope, I dont play any Vai (dont tell anyone ) I just prefer 24 frets, and if I can get it I take it.

cool i'm glad you're enjoying you're tone zone i own one my self.


just wondering are you a big fan of rose wood boards because if anyone is building a guitar they usually go with a maple board i know i would.

the guitar i used is my kramer focus with super distortion pickup it gots alot of power.

ever time i bring my kramer to guitar center everyone gos nuts and asked to play it they looks at me like i'm a movie star or something lol

is that a real ibanez neck or something from a website?

i heard you cant order ibanez necks.(have no idea why

i need some votes people lol.

[Wayward_Son]

I like rosewood for its warmer tone, maple seems more bright to me and with a high output pickup I didn't want to end up with a bright treble noisey thing like a strat .

lol Kramers are real nice guitars, I've played a few but never had the chance to own one myself, but I played a friends beretta before and, amazing guitar!

Its the second one (from website) lol. Its a bit thinner, pointier headstock from a normal ibanez. I'm not sure about not being able to order from Ibanez but it is possible, I dont see many necks floating around unless they are used and on eBay.

[Bluewolfgang]

the only ibanez neck i liked was the vai artist model and i think the satchriani.

the neck shape was kind of like a american kramer very flat not concave like stratocaster necks.


is this first time you build a guitar before.

i would love to build one my self one may be a frankenstrat or kramer 5150 replica.

does home made guitar play better then the stuff off the rank?

[Wayward_Son]

Yes the neck I got is very "flat". I have played a few american Kramers and the necks are similar, but I would actully have to say that the one I have on mine is actully thinner!

This is my first custom guitar! It was a really fun thing to do and for how good it plays and looks I would place its value over the 500 I payed for all the parts. Plus its value to me because I made it makes it worth even more to myself.

I think it has to do with what you use a lot, if you do it all right and everything lines up perfectly everywhere on it and you use quality parts then it will sound a load better than MANY off the shelf guitars. My guitar doesn't even use the best parts and I think it plays better than many guitars in the 1000 - 1500 range!

[momot]

wolf sounds like he's in mono, but his playing sounds much more clearer. Wayward's backer was a bit too noisy but I actually liked his tone and his aggresiveness, so I'd go for him ........

[Bluewolfgang]

i agree.

i've been thinking about building a guitar for about a year and don't have the funs lol.

did you use spary cans to paint it?

and we're did you order the parts from.

do they have a beretta body or hockey stick neck available?

[Wayward_Son]

The body I got was painted (to a point) I still need to paint it all the way (but dont care as much about paint as I do playability, and it looks good with the paint on it as is :P).

I got my Floyd Rose from Mighty Mite (very good quality replica), the hardware from Guitar Center, body from eBay , and neck from here ---

Dont be fooled by the low prices too, the one I got is amazing quality, although I havn't seen a dragon for sale since I got mine... He has some Kramer style headstocks and some jacksons (reverse as well) but no hockey stick style sadly.

come on good people i need some votes here!



cool link but i was thinking about puting a new neck on my kramer and makeing it a frankenstrat replica.

do you know we're can i get the new evh pickups from the new frankenstrat guitar eddie and fender made i heard ducan made the pups on that guitar

[Wayward_Son]

Yes remember to vote on this one guys!!!

That would be cool to do! Duncan did indeed make EVH's pups, but I dont know which ones... I'm sure if you do a search there would be MANY results though! There is also a website that was mentioned not too long ago on here that has a lot of necks/bodys for the EVH guitars, maybe someone will chime in and shed some light.

thanks dude for the cool info

[Revraz]

You guys should consider using the Attachment feature of the Forum instead of linking it to a offsite link, I couldn't get to either song.

[Bluewolfgang]

dude it works fine for me.

when you open the lick click the donwload button below.

the upload attachments in the forum didn't work so we used a server lol.

[bwmac]

I heard to many mistakes in BWGangs version; but that said I dont know if I could do that good.

I heard a lot less mistakes in Wayward S version and so I will vote for Wayward.
The hiss/reverb that you guys are talking about has nothing to do with the actual guitar playing (from what I heard)
and since its a guitar battle and not a recording battle I dont think the quality of the recording matters.

Just my 2 cents


Heres my PEAVEY

[bluesman6885]

BlueWolfgang and Wayward Son did great on this one.
They were both surprisingly good. I really enjoyed listening to both of them play. I had to go with Wayward Son on this one because his playing was more polished. However I want to encourage BWGang to keep practicing harder. You my friend, are on your way to being a blistering lead guitarist!
ENCORE!! ENCORE!!
