After playing guitar for a few years ive realized there are few quality guitars made outside of America. Ive played my fair share of shitty guitars and one good one (which I dont have anymore) and no Ibanez, Schecter, Jackson, ect can compare to a Gibson of Fender. Jacksons are an American company....

i've only heard horror stories about BC Rich for the last 12 years. the only models i've heard anything good about are the american made customs. i've actually only heard great things about those but if you want one of'em you better have some jack saved up. I totally agree with you. But you NEED to...

Im blown away by the fact that you would post a novel about your bad music store experience. Only a few people from Cumming post on here in the first place, and your crying about your guitar isnt going to stop people in the area from buying their strings, drum sticks, cables etc.. from Ponce. I did...

Hey dude, if I were nearby I'd do it for you. You might want to entirely replace the Floyd Rose... or just get a new guitar altogether. BC Rich guitars aren't very good, with the exception of USA Custom and the new NJ Deluxe/Pro line.

Passive pickups need to be wired like anything else.

That said I am thinking about experimenting with them... I've got a line on a custom shop Seymour Duncan and '59 set for $130, the CS Duncan is supposed to be like an EMG 85 but "better".

I walk into the store, say, "Hey, I'm here to get my guitar". They jokingly say, "ahh there was a fire, and all the guitars are ash now!" "Well thats ok, that's my favorite tonewood anyway". The joke seems to go over their head. The tech that recognized me went into the back to get it. He opens up t...

A warning to my fellow Atlantans: Avoid this music store.

So I blacked out the Edwards, as you've all seen I'm sure. This meant getting a new switch, which meant the wiring needed to be re-done... I've had bad luck with a soldering iron and good luck with the local music store, Ponce de Leon. They installed the EMGs to begin with and did a fantastic job. T...
