Debate harder. Try harder. Saying my argument is bad is ridiculous. At least state your opinion like an adult. My argument is: Dime's tone was different and interesting 22 years ago. It didn't sound... |

How many of you are judging Dime's tone by 2012 standards? The tone he's (in)famous for is ~22 years old. I guarantee the majority of you weren't even alive in 1990. Nearly everything else was a... |

I own 2 ESPs and have never touched an LTD. Now I'm curious how well they stack up. Pretty nice guitar, at any rate. |

Red > Brown > Blue > Purple > Black And by "pro", do you mean Guitar Center tech or luthier? Is the buzz audible when amplified? Did the tech even bother to check the nut or for bad frets? |

Used guitar? Maybe someone's pet peed in the case. New guitar and it's Indian Rosewood? Yeah, that's the way it smells. Seriously. |

Um, can you possibly post pictures? Your guitar suffered some trauma (a fall) and now it's radically different. There may actually be damage to the bridge. This is a lot like saying you got punched... |

Off-topic (and with all due respect), but sometimes I feel like I woke up one day and there were dozens of genres of metal. Goregrind? Yes, I'm showing my age. |

At least you're sort of paying it forward, which is pretty cool of you. I got my first electric at 12 years old around 1988. Beautiful Ibanez Roadstar 2 with a red tiger stripe finish. Left it with... |

Chiming in to suggest a Mesa Mini Rectifier (if you're prepared to drop $1,000). I'm running one through a Mesa 2x12 v30 cab, OD-9 in front and a 10 band eq in the loop. It's a fantastic amp. Sounds... |

Too many knife edges with a FR. You could probably do that with a cam system (Kahler et al) and use one very low tension spring per string. |

Pretend you're playing a kick drum. Tap with your heel. Lift up and down on your toes. I guarantee you'll be able to "tap" faster than your metronome. |
