any idea what could be wrong with Tubescreamer?
I figure it's doubtfull, but I know some of you are good with electronics and what-not. I bought a TS9DX approximately 1 year ago. it is not gigged or anything, just in home playing, and not even heavily played at that. now, for some unknown reason, it's just stopped working. the light doesn't come on or anything. I…

Creating a Loop
I have the Boss RC 20XL and I can't seem to figure out the perfect loop. It's either to early or too late. It's really frusturating. Instead of just playing and having fun, it seems like I'm spending most of the time trying to get my loop on time. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Mixing BOSS blues driver with Blues JR.
I just got this wonderful amp, trouble is, I'm having trouble trying to find a place for the blues driver with this amp because the tone is so good. For instance, I want to jam out to crossroads, some bluesy rock stuff, and I can't find the right balance between the amps settings and the BOSS blues drivers settings, seems…

Phase 90 for sale
Hey everybody, I've got an MXR Phase 90 that I'd like to unload and I'd rather sell it to someone on here than go to eBay. It's in great condition minus a paint chip near the ac-adaptor jack. Sounds just like it did new. Nothing physically wrong with it, I just find that I don't really have any use for it with the music I…

Groundhog Day (movie) intro guitar tab?
I can find plenty of instruction for the Primus song, but Google's being no help in finding out how to play the music from the intro to Groundhog Day. It's the same music that plays behind the DVD menu... just that one little riff. It seems super-easy, but I super-suck. Anyone? (If I can, I'll upload the sound... or find…

Help please pedal wizards.
I just bought a Tubescreamer and love it. However since I used to have a shitty amp I bought overdrive pedals to help make the gain channel sound better. I was thinking about trading either a DS-1 or a SD 1 both made by Boss for a Peavey delta effects unit. I like both pedals but who else owns these pedals and which one…

Best guitar for my range??
so i've been looking to getting a guitar lately, and since i've never been in the market for a guitar (i play the bass tho) i was wondering what was the best i could probably get for something around $600. I recently played a Fender Tele (i think American Deluxe??) and it was great, but i think it's about double my range.…

bought this guitar for $20 from a coworker today
my friend said he inherited a guitar from his grandfather that he'd sell for $20 sight-unseen. so I said, yeah. I actually liked the guitar. the neck feels halfway decent. I brought it home cleaned it up and put some new strings on it. pretty hard to get it in tune. once I plugged it in, ehh. not that it sounds so bad, but…

Got my Blues JR.!!
So my birthday was this past Saturday, (the 8th), and I got the blues jr. which I've had my eye on since last summer. This thing is absolutely gorgeous, I've been playing Mayer and Jimi all weekend. So warm and fat, just so beautiful. It's also my first all-tube amp, and was just wondering, after examining the tubes (just…

Strats .. Opinions on the best
in a month or so i may be able to get a pretty high - end strat. i'm not going to explain the whole story, but basically it could be a gift from someone. don't worry about the price unless it's realllly sky rocketing. but anyways, there are so many different types of strats out there .. what do you all think are the best?…

OK: I've had enough of my journey for the perfect distortion .. help
ok. so basically i have been through a bunch of different distortion overdrive pedals in my life. however, i'm still searching for that perfect one to give a completely crisp, loud, clear, distortion. trying to emulate an early (or present actually) pearl jam sound would be kind of what i'm aiming for. let me give you all…

The help! How do you get this effect? - thread!
Ok... Just so everythign can be put into one thread and help out fellow guitarists. 1st off. Im sure its Mike who does it, but he can get this spacey type effect going, heard when they play songs like Interseller Overdrive, the intro to Sad, in Porch solos and the breakdown in RearviewMirror. Its hard to describe, but the…

Sad day in Northwest Ohio
Toledo's best music store, even better then Guitar Center, is finally closing it's doors. Peeler Music had it all, until two years ago when Gibson moreless said, you aren't selling our stuff no matter what. But peeler was still hard to beat, with prices and selection. Another private own store down the tubes. So now I…

crooked tubes?
As i just posted about my new blues junior, it's my first all-tube amp, and was just wondering, after examining the tubes (just checking things out) I noticed some of the groove tubes are angled a little differenlty in their slots than another one, but not by much. (Meaning one is pointed straight down, the other two a…

Pearl Jam on their Time Off
When the band members of Pearl Jam are on their time off, whether they just finished a tour an album or just time away from everything do you think they practice their instruments at home by themselves. I know with any instrument I have to play and practice all the time to stay sharp and play well but do you guys think…

MoreTone clips
Another couple of short Franken-riffs. These are played on a Gibson LP through the clean channel of a Mesa Lonestar, with some delay and Rotsphere. THe riff is initially just guitar, then I add some efects on each cycyle. I'm still freexzing up when I turn the recorder on. I swear I am more comfortable playing in fri=ont…

Short tone clip
Trying to get the hang of this upload biz. This is a short doodle, "informed" by Alive, so it sounds nothing like it really, have to dodge the copyright issue on Soundclick. Next they will be banning kids from playing riffs at Guitar Centre. Anyway, this is one of my R9's into a "British", more copyright code, Marshall…
