speaking from first hand experience, just try to find a great deal on craigslist. i myself got a schecter hellraiser FR for 300 bucks from some guy. it had a little rust on the frets and needed a setup, after i got that straightened out, super nice guitar. plus it's personal and you don't have to deal with overseas shipping and all that nonsense.

Help,Is this an Authentic Schecter?

Anyone else notice that in the year 2552, the sniper rifles only hold 4 rounds? and they still use pump-action shotguns... wtf... you'd think that the technology would've progressed by then.

okay. So you're unhappy with what genetics gave you so you want to go under the knife to fix it basically? Since this scenario is so similar to girls going, "my boobs are too small, i want surgery". I'm going to have to say i'll stick to my guns. Fake boobs suck. So one can assume fake voice sucks too right?

It'd be fake. Singing is about letting your emotions go and being honest with yourself right? Work with what you got. I know this is all hypothetical but still. You're the only one who can sing exactly like you can, learn to use what you've got.

Would you change your voice through surgery?

i'd say go for it. the looper will just send the same dry signal that your guitar would. I think modeling amps are crap with like... distortions and flangers... stuff that actually changes the signal. But a looper doesn't, and should sound fine IMO.

Dumb question, but i want to know

A nice high-gain tube amp would be nice. Along with a compressor pedal to keep everything tight. And that guitar would be fine. Maybe an overdrive pedal would do you some good too?

honestly, i'm not sure a bigsby on a hellraiser would be the most asthetically pleasing matchup... plus i'm pretty sure you can't use one with a string-thru bridge (don't quote me on this) maybe look into a different tremelo system?

Bigsby in Schecter c-1 Hellraiser

hmm... alright. it seems a little much to ask that he completely take off the new neck to show me the pocket. The actual color of the strat lends a little bit of credibility too right? Surf green finish is pretty rare right?

okay. I'll bring up the COA. I already asked if he had the original neck. waiting for a reply. Apart from those, any other ways to identify this guitar as authentic?

So this guy here on craigslist wants to trade his 57 Fender strat reissue for my Schecter Hellraiser.

Here's the ad: http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/msg/1864619175.html

Now since he replaced the neck with a warmoth... how do i know this is actually a 57 strat reissue? there's no serial or anything so i'm kinda just taking his word for it.

anyone know any surefire ways i could find out if this is what he says it is?

trade advice?

so i've got a schecter C-1 Hellraiser FR. Mint condition, black cherry finish. This guy on craigslist says he has a PRS Paul Allender sig he'd be willing to trade for it. link

I was wondering if you guys thought this would be a good deal.

The PRS looks absolutely AMAZING. Although i have no idea who Paul Allender is...

I know PRS is known for amazing guitars but I know they're also pretty pricey for the name. The Schecter plays beautifully, but i cannot stand the Floyd rose, and i think passives are better...

So overall... anything i should know. Opinions?

I'd be playing one mainly just for show anyways. I was gonna give it the LED mod just to make it look cool.

acrylic guitars?

Hey guys, i'm interested in purchasing a decent acrylic guitar in a little while, and i was wondering if anyone knew any brands that had some nice sounding acrylics.

Also, for anyone with experience, what tonal qualities would a guitar made of acrylics have? Just wonderin'.

hey guys, i wasn't sure which forum to post this in seeing as we don't have a "ukulele" forum, so the pit seemed like the only option.

Right now, i'm looking into purchasing either a tenor or a baritone ukulele. I'm pretty new to the instrument, only been playing a cheap toy soprano uke, and i'm looking to get a real instrument.

i'll be buying used, and i was wondering if we had any uke players on UG, and what they would suggest.

Any brands to look into? avoid?

I only have < $150 U.S. btw.

So ukulele players of UG...lets hear it.

EDIT: For those of you who don't know, the tenor's a 'bit bigger than the soprano, tuned the same GCEA. The Baritone however, is even larger, and tuned DGBE (i.e.- highest 4 strings of the 'ol 6 string)

alright, first thing. Maybe you should contemplate using an acoustic guitar? (unless you don't have one...)

Also, For the last little 'bit where you speed up and start shredding or whatnot, get a full band!!!! (i know it's kinda impossible with just a youtube vid with yourself) but it'd sound cooler.

Maybe change-up the vocal melody a 'bit? it's the same basically throughout the entire song, kinda seems to drone on and on after a while. Same with the lyrics themselves. They all follow the same structure. Variety is the Spice of life.

The Jamie Sanders song

9 years ago

this is a song meant for christian reflection?... I think it actually may be a 'bit too heavy for that...

but as for the song itself- Distortion sounds maybe a 'tad too fuzzy? maybe just the recording.

Drums seem a little weak. Needs more "Oomph". A little more balls to compete with the heavy chugga chugga riff.

Leads were nice. Maybe make it a little more aggressive? add some tremelo picking or pinch harmonics?

I think the wah is a 'bit excessive...lower the sweep a little bit. it sounds more like a volume pedal than a wah. tell the bassist to learn how to play.

Also, if you tell us fast forward 2 minutes then you already know. Maybe take more time in actually writing something instead of keeping something you think sucks and telling us to fast-forward.

also, the "claude the puss" vocals...is really annoying and doesn't fit with the rest of the music. can it all together.

Very eerie sounding song. the Hum (intentional or just bad recording) actually kinda accentuates the creepyness of it.

Maybe getting an actual bass for the low chord strums would be better than three guitar parts?

I listened to Wise Man. I like the song. It's cool. Although (maybe it's just me) but the bassline for me just doesn't flow together well enough. I think maybe it needs a little more legato-ishness...

Backup vocals need just a 'bit more volume...

I'm really diggin' this track. bass is tight. very nice variation in the instrumentation. Little piano riff just may get lodged in my head for a while.

You definitely put your time and effort into this and it shows.

lol. i like it. really fast. really heavy. and the solo (although cheated on) sounds pretty good.

only problem really is the quality, which isn't unbearable. But it could definitely use some work. and some real drums.

But i'm sure you knew that. good shit.
