Those are my old ones! Those are Iron Cobra Jr.'s and i just bought Iron cobra Sr.'s

Danzaxbonanza 08-07-10 02:58 PM

Iron Cobra's are the shizzbomb. Although I hear nothing but great things about Axis. Anyone down for a double bass contest?

exactly. both can be overused to no end, but done with taste they make for some killer riffs. i, myself, use a dw 9002 dbl pedal. none of my guitars have floyd's though.

I've never seen a RR with a plate like that around the string through. Is that stock?

The guitar I usually record with:

I have it tuned to B standard but with the ****ty pickups it just sounds like crap on high gain. Definitely need to switch those out. Sounds lovely on clean with the neck pickup though.

BoozyMcliverRot 08-08-10 06:16 PM

Blicks....Is that a Rhodes?. Mine did have the plate when I bought it new,but yours seems a little to smooth edged for a Rhodes,much less a Jackson.

It's pretty clearly an Epiphone! I think they were trying to copy Jackson with the string through body and even the headstock, but everything is sort of rounded out...it's a cheaper model they only made one year.

Also I think they made the body bigger compared to the Randy Rhoads because the wood is light weight, and to balance out the heavy neck needed to be bigger. It's on okay guitar but I'd rather have a Rhoads.

Just got in the mail for my birthday! My dad's old G&L. This bass is so much easier to play than Megan's Squier, I figured it would sound a hell of a lot better, but not be lighter action or anything. Maybe it's the fretting? Anyways I love it so far.

I dig this thread. I also have an L-1000, and it's a great bass. I strung mine with flatwounds for tubby thump. :) At the risk of embarrassment, here is my and my friends playing in the studio. This is an L-2000 with jazz neck. (I am on bass.)

Wow, that's a world class gift...treasure it.

My current axes are: 1987 Alvarez DY-39 w/LR Baggs transducer, 1983 Washburn M3-SW F-style mandolin(LR Baggs-Joe Mills Mic combo), 1978 Takamine Acoustic/Electric 'Logo Era' 12-string, 1976 Gibson Grabber G-3 w/custom EKG Select pick-ups(reverse P-bass configuration), 1983 Strat Standard.

Also, I've got this mandola sized Celtic looking handmade instrument I bought on ebay. It's been dated to 1860 and has ivory banjo tuners. It really sounds great stummed, but not so good trying to do single note stuff. I use it as another sound besides the acoustic guitar on demo recordings. Fills in very nicely. Wish I knew how to post pics. :(
