    Synyster Gates Guitar Rarity

    That's very lucky dude! If I could have my choice the head and slanted cab is exactly what I would go for. I've been checking reverb intermittently ever since but haven't seen anything. Maybe one day!

    Synyster Gates Guitar Rarity

    I saw that add on Kijiji, it was legit the first time I ever searched for a Hellwin to purchase. And I instantly found a great deal... So I figured they were readily available... I was wrong. It was used, but seemed to be in mint condition. Since then I have only ever seen the head of the amp...

    Synyster Gates Guitar Rarity

    2011 model, somewhat rare, but not impossible to find. Might get screwed over on the price a bit if you do find one. Personally I don't think it is worth it. New models sound just as good, and will be just as vintage in a few years. If you want to talk about rare, the olive green burst Synyster...

    What is your favorite song from The Stage album?

    I remember the first time I listened to this album. Exist was the stand out song for me. But the more I listened to it, the more I admired this album. Now, I don't even know if I could pick one song above the rest. The Stage is classic, pure fun. Paradigm has some of the most thought provoking...

    Comment by 'Daniel Verde' in media 'a little solo with the existing backing track'

    Fast does not necessarily = good But your playing here is objectively very good. So great job! Your musicality is clear. If you want to build up speed that is fine. Find a fast song, play with a metronome, start slow and work your way to a faster speed. But seriously this sounded great!

    Concerns about my Syn Custom S

    That is really unfortunate. Tough luck. All I'll say is that the sustainiac is extremely fun but not necessarily a perfect system. I find that you sometimes need to mute strings that you aren't using while it is on. For me it works great, it just required a little getting used to. I really hoped...

    New here and could use some help!

    And before you know it 3 hours have gone by :p That's a good thing though! It's a really good sign. You will be alright. Keep at it.

    Concerns about my Syn Custom S

    You might need to raise the sustainiac closer to the strings. It is an electromagnet, but if it is not close enough to the strings it will not take the desired effect. There are screws on each side of the sustainiac that should allow you to raise and lower it. Let me know if this helps!

    Technical issues...

    I have attached this link to help you with terminology. The "fine tuners" which you circled in white, can only screw in to a certain point. And when you loosen them, eventually they will fall out of the "bridge." When tuning with a floyd rose system, the "nut" must be loosened with a hex key...

    New here and could use some help!

    Welcome Will, that's great that you are getting in to your music! This place is an excellent resource, use it. Jak is right, there isn't a set time that is required, and I completely agree that efficiency is key. An effective 1 hour practice session is better than 3 hours of messing around...

    Buckethead - Binge and Grab, Guitar Cover

    This is my cover of Binge and Grab from Buckethead's album, Giant Robot. It's also my first attempt at a meaningful Youtube thumbnail. I'm pretty stoked about it.

    Master of puppets

    One of the hardest songs to play correctly, and they say Metallica is easy lol. If you figure out how to play as tight as Hetfield let me know.

    Question about Synyster Gates schecter custom s

    Hahaha, you know what. I know a lot of Romanian people and they always say that to me! My name is actually Portuguese for "Green." I've been told it is the same in Romanian. Oh and I thought to add something to what I told you before. I try to do everything as efficiently as possible. So when I...

    Question about Synyster Gates schecter custom s

    I have a Synyster Gates Custom S and I absolutely love it! It's the best guitar I have. As far as the height of the strings is concerned this is something that can be adjusted on this guitar. It can be adjusted by the Truss Rod as well as the Floyd Rose system. You can Youtube the key words...

    Buried Alive solo problem

    I'll give you three tips for now: -Practice with a metronome, start slow work your way up to full speed. -Some of the sweep picking lessons on this website will really help you as well, use them. You may even notice some patterns between the scales/licks Papa demonstrates and the actual material...

    What inspires/motivates you to practice in general?

    First I'll give my advice and then explain by talking about my experience learning the guitar. My advice for the absolute beginner is to above all else HAVE FUN PLAYING GUITAR! Nothing motivates a person more than passion. And as you improve you can increase your dedication/discipline with the...

    Good and affordable audio interface? What to buy?

    I literally just got one and I'm absolutely loving it. I got a Steinberg UR22C audio interface. It came with Cubase which I have enjoyed using. I also run Bias FX 2 as an insert through Cubase if the basic guitar effects aren't quite doing it for me. Do some research and make an informed...
