    Hard tail guitar for down tuning

    If you feel comfortable with it and you might need a minor set up. you can crank the springs down on your bridge. But the ibanez RG431 is a good inexpensive hard tail guitar.

    Rack gear

    Thought you guys would get a kick out if this. I have an ada mp1 laying around, I think I'll hook it up to my axe fx and do a hybrid set up where I'll use the axe fx for my effects and poweramp/cab sim.

    Still struggling with the Axe FX II

    Hard to say just by looking at it. the invader is a high output pickup so the magnetic field is strong. I would try quarter turns while playing and listening. Just dont unscrew it too much or the pickup will drop into the cavity.

    Still struggling with the Axe FX II

    Maybe try lowering your pickups a bit away from the strings. If they are too close they can make weird noises.

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    What is your input impedance set at? And it might be worth it to to a factory reset just to make sure that any weird changes the previous owner made get set back to stock.

    Help me build my guitar!

    https://www.solomusicgear.com/product/solo-st-style-diy-guitar-kit-basswood-body-hard-maple-fingerboard/ Saw this with a maple fretboard not sure what shipping and duty fees would cost. But it is generally safe to assume that any inexpensive body will be drilled for an import bridge unless...

    Help me build my guitar!

    I can try and help what ever way I can. I have done a bunch of partcaster builds. And I am working on another one. Scale length, neck pocket shape and bridge dimensions are really what are going to determine what your choices are. I would say 90% of strat necks and bodies are interchangeable...

    Axe FX II - Help!?

    Not to treat you like an idiot but just so we can cover our bases. did you set your input gain? And what are you using to amplify it? If you are plugging it into a guitar amp you want to patch it in through the effects loop and disable the cab sim. Dont plug it into the front end Or you are...

    How do I stop loosing my guitar picks

    Find the place where those single socks run off to and you will probably find the picks too.... at least that's what I hope. For real though I have a loose change bowl by where I play and keep them there.

    Floyd Rose Retuning/Changing Strings

    Easiest I found was use the same gauge and tuning and do one string at a time.

    Purchasing reaper

    A good interface. I like the focusrite scarlett products. The 2i2 is nice for recording stereo unless you plan for doing live drums, then it gets more expensive. A pair of monitors. Krk rockit monitors are great for the price. Good quality cables. You dont have to go for the best but good...
