Choose your weapon! Fender is standard tuning. SG is drop d 1 step down.

Plus I have another one that is just a cheap strat rip off, and I'm planning to buy another guitar this summer but we shall see if I have the money too.


....and I've never played that game before.

i've got a gibson (not epiphone) SG, identical to dcr's, except the plate is brushed aluminum, and i play through a mesa/boogie 150w tripple rectifier, three channel footpedal with solo. ;) and a 4x12 cab. (for those of you who dont know the mesa tripple rec, it's a full tube amp, and sounds glorious!) i'll possibly post some pics tomorrow, but for now, here' one.

JustAnotherVictim, I want a Les Paul soooo bad, they are such nice guitars :(


Shaeff, tube amps > all. I would post the pic of my three guitars and amp but I don't seem to have it hosted anymore :? and all I've got right now for a pedal is a Boss metal Zone, I'm going to get the Boss ME-50 once I have some money. My friend has it and it's really nice.

hey loki, if you want any amp you have to sound like a tube amp, i HIGHLY recommend the SansAmp GT-II. it made my first half stack (solid state) sound like a tube amp. (i still use it on my practice amp) i just ran out of adjustability for my sound with that amp, which is why i picked up the mesa.

Shaeff, I've got an older Fender tube amp. I love it, and I got it for free. It's my Uncle's old one it was sitting my my Grandparents basement forever, it's probably from the '80s sometime, it sounds so amazing.

i agree. there's nothing like the full-bodied sound of a tube amp. i wish i was internet savvy, so i could post up my old band's demo. you'd probably like it. :(

haha, thanks dcr. something i was always wicked good at, was jumping really high. :) someone used to have a pic of me jumping right next to my amp, (half stack, 4x12 cab + mesa head) and i was about an inch ABOVE my amp. it was awesome, but it's too bad i never got a copy of that pic. :(

that all being said, if there is a countertop that's about as high as my abs, i can stand still, in one spot, squat down and thrust my arms up, and jump (yes, from a standstill) and land on the countertop while keeping my balance/not falling back off. :) i used to do it all the time at my old job.

i like to jump.

I've actually never used a tube amp before, my amps are still kinda crappy. :)
I need to get a real one.
