Guitar collecting maniac. True story everytime i used to take a trip to the dentist usually after an extraction i would visit guitar shops and would always walk out with a different guitar and it mattered none if it was a cheapie or expensive if it was unsusual or there was something bout i...

:bigbrain2 So, my first electric guitar was a Fender Strat, and when I first held it, I thought all guitars after this would be heavy... My next guitar was a Les Paul: It was WAY lighter than my Strat! I have eight electrics now, and my Strat is still the heaviest of all my guitars! As far as...

So, I plan on getting a new guitar soon, and I'm really torn between 2 companys. First off, I've been playing on-and-off for about a year now and I really wanted to upgrade my guitar. I really would like a Les Paul and the only ons in my buget is the Epiphone model for about $400 and the Agile...

i've got some strange fret buzz on the fifth fret of my epi les paul... i did not have this problem a couple weeks ago, but after i changed my pickups and changed the strings it came about. i don't remember if i changed string gauges, and i didnt think the neck was without tension long enough...

I've been playing acoustic guitar for five months. I am looking for a good electric guitar to start on. I like to play Rush, Zeppelin and other rock stuff. My price limit is 400 dollars. I want something to last me a couple of years without having to upgrade. Any suggestions would be...

Had lots of guitars come and go...but could never let go of my '67 ES345!

This guy was born a Les Paul Deluxe and after years of playing and many, many alterations, it ended up looking like this. A great player. $385 brand new with case when I was a little guy. Thanks Mom & Dad :tu:

Ok so I'm just starting out playing guitar, and now it's time to change my strings for the first time. 1 - How do I change them? 2 - How do I know I have fitted them correct? 3- Which strings do I buy? I have a Slash custom Epiphone Les Paul. I took the E string out, just by losening the...

Hey hey! I was just browsing through some guitars on the web today, and I was supprised by how little I actually know about guitars themselves. Basically, i'm just curious to know things about the quality of guitars, what makes them better etc. etc. so for example, I'd love to know what woods...

Hey guys I am looking for a new axe and would like your opinions. I really like the LTD Alexi Laiho signature model, but am not sure it is worth over a grand to me. I am not buying it for the name. Don't get me wrong I like COB and Alexi is a great guitarist but that is not why I am looking at...

i am thinking about replacing the craptastic stock pickup in my Epi LP and i don't know if i need F-Spaced pole pieces or not...i read in a DiMarzio catalog that it was for gits with trems and wide bridges, but did not give a measurement...help?

I always thought that your first guitar has an influence on what type of player you will be...so what was your first?

I am planning on buying either a SH11 or PAF pickup tonight to get rid of the stock pickups on my ibanez strat gsa60. My question is since I keep hearing that the SH11 sounds very bright when put through les pauls and strats and its almost to bright for good distortion but then again I hear the...

Do any of you guys know with what the sound is being generated that gives the Creedence sound??...What i mean is, is it a type of MOD, or is it the sound of the type of guitar they are using?

these guys should have and still should be considered very innovative guitarists for the past twenty plus years.vivians work on anything DIO is mindblowing.go back and listen to him.in the early 80s you had eddie van halen and randy rhoads.then who.vivian campbell could and still can shred and...

aright, i got a weird problem here. and instead of feasting upon others 'what pickup should i get?' posts, i'll creat anew one. so, i recently got a guitar with peavey ceramic humbucker pickups(neck and bridge. no middle), and i wanna get rid of them and put in something that will give me the...
