This album has a lot of decent tracks would like to include demise of sanity and mass murder machine as well although there is a few songs on here that could of been a little better still it's an excellent album in my opinion.

This one really doesn't gel with me. I prefer the albums from Blessed Hellride onward. Their newest two are pretty good.

Very cool dude indeed. Down to Earth and loves making fun of himself. The early BLS stuff had some sick shit too.

Yeah dude he def does. It's not bad with BLS but if you listen to the last album he did with Ozzy (Black Rain), the level of processed effects was getting unbearable. Sweet purchase though. His detuned LP and lots of chorus is a monstrous combo

Yeah agreed. I have a 2006 Studio premium which basically means it has a quilt top, it's super light and fun to play, but it is just different. I compare it to my buddy's 1980 LP and his just feels & sounds so much nicer.

Dude don't even think about new Gibsons, you don't see how overpriced they are?

And I always thought new and shiny Gibsons just didn't look right. I would buy used not only to save thousands of dollars, but get a bit of player wear too.

I paid $1,300 for my studio premium back in like 2007 and I don't regret getting it, it's definitely a nice guitar and spent thousands of hours playing it prob. But to be honest, I have an ibanez prestige too that was $1,800 and it blows it out of the water in every way. So I guess what I'm saying is for the same price or close to it you can find better guitars.



But the signature sound and style of the Les Paul is something to appreciate for sure.

The Japanese lawsuit LPs from the 70s an 80s are dope and for the price they are absolute steals too. They are quite rare though, especially when trying to find one that is not in Japan (i.e. the shipping from Japan will kill you)

Aiwaz yeah that is a really nice finish. Even changing the pickups to other Gibson pickups haha you a a traditionalist through and through

Wow that thing is sexy and classy man. Put some Bursts in there and she'd be a real fine guitar

Most pickups come with a diagram showing what gets soldered to what. I'm sure there's plenty of youtube videos on it too.



As far as order of pedals, I dont think order matters as long as they're all True Bypass. I could be wrong on that though as I never have extended number of pedals linked together like that.

Super fuckin easy on a Les Paul. Since the guitar is so popular you will find hundreds of how-to's on Youtube.

I am assuming your pedals range from od/distortion to reverbs and delay. If so, I would put the eq and noise gates first, then the drives, and then the modulation pedals (choruses, etc) then the delays and reverbs. If your amp has an effects loop, put all your choruses, reverbs and delay there. Otherwise, keep them at the end of the chain. Keep the drives in front though always. Most people who put drives after their choruses and reverbs and stuff complain about shitty mush coming from their speaker.

That is a common signal path but do experiment with the order to find your own sound. You will be surprised at how switching around pedal order can change your sound.

Ok with that setup, I would do this:

tuner, noise gate, wah, tube screamer, ds1 all in front of the amp in that order

Chorus flanger and finally delay will go in the effects loop.

Another big discussion point is the order of your drives. putting the ts into the ds1 will NOT give you the same sound as vice versa. Try both and see what you like more.

Ugh fuck, I totally forgot to mention that the noise gate in the effects loop BEFORE EVERYTHING is a really popular option too. try both positions and see which cuts noise more.

Why do I say put the noise gate before the drives and shit? I say that because you wanna cut noise before the drives so they don't get amplified by the drive. Assuming your pedals are good quality they should produce no extra noise after the gate.

Pedal order is a highly debated topic, so what works for some may not work for others. Technically, there is no wrong order so always play around with them until you finally get the sound you want.
