    Synner app on ROKU TV's

    That would be a VERY niche app and probably wouldn't generate enough interest to justify the cost of development, but depending on how the app is architected, there could be possibilities after the phone app and the next stage of the site is rolled out. I wouldn't get your hopes up, though.

    floyd rose going out of tune

    Make them show you how to do strings - you should get comfortable doing all of this yourself. There are a LOT of videos, including one insanely long and boring one I did myself about Floyd maintenance.

    floyd rose going out of tune

    I was thinking possibly a bad string, too. rare when you've cut the ball end off, but it can happen, especially on wound strings like the A.

    Costa Mesa Recording Studios, New Syn Amp & Pedal, Album timeline

    Yeah, and I'd typically start with all settings in the middle, as well, for the "default" sound, then tweak to my taste.

    Costa Mesa Recording Studios, New Syn Amp & Pedal, Album timeline

    I won the naming contest for the amp, and Syn promised to send me one of the first ones as a prize, possibly pre-production, but who knows. I do plan to do a full video with it when it arrives, though I may not have his pedal to go along with it. I've got a Revv G3 (purple), a Klon clone, and...

    Agree. I've asked him several times if Schecter was making the amp, and if not them, then who, and he has fully and completely ignored the question entirely EVERY TIME :ROFLMAO:, which is his right, of course. Also the pics I've seen (and the pic AC posted here), there is no branding besides the...

    floyd rose going out of tune

    I wonder if perhaps the locking nut screws aren't tight enough? That could be a cause. Also strings not fully stretched. Those are the first things to check.

    Typically for US-based companies, the USA-made version uses top components and is the premium version of a line of products. US labor is more expensive, and the higher price needs to be justified. Other companies outside the US do similar things. For instance, Japanese-made Ibanez are their top...

    A gate would be awesome. Great to see more gain pedals including one.

    Costa Mesa Recording Studios, New Syn Amp & Pedal, Album timeline

    Never seen anything like the bottom one. The top one, the head, fits with the "convertible" pics Syn sent me, but again, that was 7 months ago. Maybe the underneath one is the more cost-effective overseas model? What are the 4 dials on the pedal, or is that verboten? That's a narrow pedal...

    My understanding was that it's a convertible, and the "head" you used would be the same as the top half of the split combo, though none of the pics I have show the sides, where the latches would be.

    Man, you got to play the new amp? I haven't seen or heard anything since one of the prototypes from right before Christmas. Can't wait! Glad to hear ya got The Grand Tour - that's pretty goddamn awesome.

    Captain Ed's AOTM July - Boston

    Captain Ed’s AOTM for July – Boston So my first go-round for album of the month was a bit of a cheater, in that it was a compilation album. That’s okay, it’s where my head was last month and I have no regrets. This month, the album is CONSIDERABLY shorter, but hails from a similar time...

    What are you currently listening to?

    This would have been between La Sexorcisto and Astro-Creep.

    The Seven Positions of a Major Scale – Seventh Position – Lesson 58

    Notes all seem fine, but playing it a little slower and having a bit more discipline with finger spacing on the strings will help you master that aircraft carrier-deck of a fretboard on that 8 string! Looks like you're doing a mix of alternate and economy picking there? One the faster playing...

    How To Hold The Pick – Lesson 4

    Ideally you want the pick to strike the string at a slight angle, but EXACTLY what angle will be up to you, and may change from style to style. It's about finding the tone you seek with your pick. But a slight angle (not flat pick against string) will generally allow for faster picking overall.
