    Comment by 'Eric Kane' in media 'Easier Guitar Solo'

    Hey man, nice playing, BUT - I spy a Hellwin! I'm currently on a quest to gather as much production information as possible. Is yours a USA or Stage model? Would you mind giving me the serial number?

    MAKING a Guitar

    Sure, you can do whatever you want! I'm just saying the woodworking is going to be difficult and you will need special tools to do it.

    MAKING a Guitar

    Building a guitar from scratch is not something I would recommend for the average guitar player, unless you have major woodworking skills, and lots of specialized tools. Especially the neck - I would definitely not try to build your own neck. I would however, recommend looking into guitar...

    LIBAD Guitar...

    I imagine you having a badass workshop like that, and I figured the boss sent you one already, LOL!

    LIBAD Guitar...

    Wow, that looks even more incredible up close in that shot on your workbench. Haha. Really hope Syn chooses this one. I'm ordering a replacement switch right now for the garbage one Schecter will put in this masterpiece!

    Syn 2018, hoping 2023!

    The VIP package is not a M&G. It is a display of art, old instruments, stuff like that, plus a laminate and a few small things like that. I believe they have said the only way they are doing M&G anymore is winning them through fan club or something, or having one of the Guest or Undead DBC tokens.

    Impedance and Wattage

    I don't really KNOW for sure how much it would take to swap it, but messing around inside a tube amp with large capacitors can be deadly, so I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself unless you have a very good understanding of what is what, and what can kill you. I'm not exaggerating - it can and...

    Impedance and Wattage

    Just wanted to add a little bit to the discussion here. I purchased one of my Hellwin heads from someone in Europe, and so I had a similar issue as yours. I wanted the transformer replaced, and Schecter did not have any available for purchase at that time, so I wouldn't expect them to have any...

    "Nobody" from the new album "Life is but a Dream"

    Love it. It's blasting on constant repeat right now. Love that they don't give a shit what anybody thinks, and take risks in the name of great art. The last minute and a half with Syn's insane solo, and the crazy drums is still blowing my mind. I was going to learn the solo, but uh, that's...

    Synyster Gates Custom S golden goddess

    The Serial Number seems to indicate it is a 2016. Schecter SNs usually start with W, then the following two numbers are the year. I didn't think they were still making the white/gold in 2016 though... Also, I was thinking the older versions had white fretboard inlays? But I just looked up...

    libad5343.net - Marketing Campaign or ????

    Definitely marketing. New website design today matches the cards they were sending out with stuff you order from their store.

    libad5343.net - Marketing Campaign or ????

    I agree that it looks very likely that it is some sort of marketing campaign for new album/single. If it were a "hacker" that set all this in motion, it would have taken months to set it all up, and for what? The AI/Sci-fi stuff also seems very much like something they would incorporate. I...

    is the hellwin ir extention .wav?

    Hey man, good to see you back on here! Yeah, I saw your captures on the cloud and tried them out. The amp captures, I was able to do myself, and they sound pretty good. It was the cab part of it that was not working out. Long story short, I did get the IR cab pack files converted to...

    Papa Gates' Schecter Hellwin Amp AMA

    I'm sure Ed took care of it, but if not, you can PM me with your email address and I can get them to you.

    App

    So I upgraded my phone, and when I transferred everything over, the Synner app will not load. It says it is unable to install the app because it is no longer available in the App store. And if I search for it in the App store, sure enough, nothing comes up. Anyone know what the deal is with that?

    Hi guys! I just made an Avenged Sevenfold song style called "Madness", it's only made for fun, pls let me know what you think!

    Please don’t title a video for a song you made “Avenged Sevenfold New Song 2022”. That is a total misrepresentation, and should not be done in my opinion. They didn’t have anything to do with it.

    SYN Custom S Sustaniac issue

    Are you leaving the guitar plugged in? If you leave it plugged in, the battery will die. Always turn the sustainiac off and unplug the cable from the guitar. If that’s not the issue, I’m not sure why it would be killing batteries so quickly. They last forever in mine. But I don’t use the...

    Starting gear?

    I started playing in college with a late 90s Squier Telecaster, a really small Danelectro combo amp, and a DOD Grunge pedal. I was kind of embarrassed by the amp at the time, but it actually didn't sound too bad, and I wish I would've kept it. That's the only piece of gear I've ever sold. I'm...

    is the hellwin ir extention .wav?

    Excellent! Thanks for the info. I wasn’t sure if they came with a universal format, or just the Fractal format. I’ll have to save up a little bit after splurging on the QC, but I’ll probably get the Syn cab packs. Thanks again!

    is the hellwin ir extention .wav?

    Ed, I have a newb question that you may or may not be able to answer. I just got a Neural DSP Quad Cortex, and it’s my first real adventure into the digital world (always been a real tube amp guy). I’m loving it so far, but I also don’t really have a full grasp on what I’m doing. Neural says...
