    For you, Ids? How about a PRS Hollowbody SE?

    Well, us mortals still have to tap the footswitch on the AxeFX, so it's a vital skill for almost EVERY guitarist to develop!

    Totally get it, and truth be told, sometimes you get the timing off, but you gotta keep playing. The important thing is to not stop playing while you're switching. Dead air where there shouldn't be dead air is a killer.

    Dude, this is super sweet, from the classic thin-as-a-razor-blade tone to the whole feel and vibe. Only thing I can say is you need to work on those transitions from rhythm to lead. Multitask. If there's a footswitch you have to tap, you need to get to where you can tap it while your sliding up...

    Rowan appreciation post! ❤

    I don't think I've ever seen anyone bare their soul so publicly as she does. Crazy brave, even more than Jak. She's inspiring!

    Vibrato

    Developing your personal approach to vibrato is one of the single most defining things you can do as a guitarist and a musician. Aside from note choice (mostly around preferential landing notes), it is one of the most fundamental unique characteristics of any guitar player. What would Zakk Wylde...

    Low E string issues

    If you like the 9's switch to a 9-46 set. You will need to adjust the Floyd, but it's a good opportunity to learn what a floyd really is and how it works. Here's a painfully long video I did where I was completely changing string gauges and tunings and how I go about setting up Mr. Floyd.

    Awesome Metal Song in a Standard Tuning?

    Motley Crue is D standard. Almost all 80s metal is E or Eb standard. With the exception of the first track on the latest album, Iron Maiden's entire catalog is E Standard. Stone Sour is mostly D standard or Eb standard A lot of Alter Bridge is Eb standard - Godspeed, the latest single, is for...

    Les Paul pickups

    I don't. The Burstbuckers in my Les Paul are the only Gibson pickups I have any meaningful time with. Really not a Gibson guy.

    Les Paul pickups

    Literally the Burstbuckers in my Les Paul and the Modern Fluence in my Kiesel are the only pickups I've never replaced in my entire playing existence.

    Les Paul pickups

    What's missing? What you seek may need to come from the amp if modern fluence aren't delivering.

    Help with Guitar Pro 7.5

    I think the soundbank has a separate installer program. Look in the same folder you found the GuitarPro installer (your Downloads folder) and see if there's an executable for installing the soundbanks.

    Help with Guitar Pro 7.5

    Guarantee it's something to do with MIDI settings. Exactly WHAT to do with MIDI settings, I don't know, but I suspect Andrei will!

    Comment by 'Ed Seith' in media 'new picking exercise / help with muting?'

    I think I know where you're going and I think I see the problem. The index (first) finger on your fretting hand can and should be used to gently mute the higher/thinner strings. Having that arched finger and using the fingertip is good for certain techniques, but when you want to mute out that...

    All Students Please Watch🥰🥰

    Anyone who wants an honest CRITIQUE with some positive reinforcement so you don't seek out the nearest bridge, tag me and I'll watch and listen. If you're fucking Syn Jr. or Hector or some shit, don't bother asking though. ;-)
