    New Hellraiser

    As a personal rule, I don’t consider condition in the same way as any store really would, and certainly not Guitar Center. If they say “good condition,” to me, that means “beat to shit but fairly playable.” I would not buy a used guitar online that was not in “excellent”,”mint,” or “like new”...

    funny stories of recording songs

    Also, editing LITERALLY involves cutting tape with a razor blade and taping it back together. So there’s that, too. Quantizing did not exist. That’s kinda why when people shit on Lars Ulrich, I *know* they don’t know anything about drumming or old-school recording. The Black Album? That shit’s...

    funny stories of recording songs

    Ezequiel – Let’s just say I *really* like digital recording. Analog tape is a pain in the ass. It’s more touchy, and takes longer to do multiple takes. We were recording in a 16 track studio, which means – of course – we were limited to 16 total tracks. If we’d mixed in the same place, we would...

    what was your first guitar?

    1986 Ibanez PL1660 I bought at Alto Music in Monsey, NY in 1986 or so. I learned a LOT on that guitar, and I mean tech, wiring, setup, etc. I tried to scallop the top 4 frets like Steve Vai, I cut holes in it, I painted it like 4 different times. After I got the RG550, I let it sit without...

    Do you guys have a favourite guitar type?

    Yes, there are. If I buy another PRS, it will have a Floyd.

    Do you guys have a favourite guitar type?

    For DECADES it was the Ibanez super-strat – the RG and the R, my oldest friends and conspirators. I first started looking for better when I got my Les Paul in 2009. That wasn’t it. I’ve found it, at least for now, in the PRS Custom 24. Thinner than a strat, Ibanez RG or LP and therefore...

    So, it happened…

    Thank you, Syn. I’m glad telling my side of the story had as much of an impact on you as the meeting itself had on me. Much love.

    So, it happened…

    Kfir and I had a nice back and forth troubleshooting some electronics in his Syn model that kept him tired at work last week :-).

    Newsflash For The School

    * Can’t “like” posts or replies * Editing a new post after posted makes it disappear (is this fixed?) * I still don’t play like Syn, so false advertising * Lesson commenting seems wonky or broken and not working like it used to * the previously mentioned Community Riffs issues

    funny stories of recording songs

    That doesn’t sound funny at all. 🙂 Not much to speak of in my home recording era, but in the 90s I was doing a demo on tape in a studio. Back then, recording to tape, you could automate a rewind point, so you could just hit rewind, and it would rewind the tape to the exact same point every time...

    Tuning My Schecter

    If you’re breaking strings just going from E to D on the low string, there’s another problem. I need to do a tuning video for Floyd-based guitars. Lots of folks here seem to need it, so I’ll try to get that done this week. In short, the fine-tuner on the Floyd should be close to all the way...
