[QUOTE=Sad But True;17753775]I don't know but I'm disinclined to believe it's authenticity seeing as the bottom of the frets are still in place and it seem to only allow you to play pentatonic minor.[/QUOTE]

its all any real man needs above the 12th fret

Tru dat, just tune your guitar to whatever key the song is (or just be Metallica and play everything in E minor).

you'll never flub a note, unless you're that terrible

also everyone obsessing over hot chicks being able to play instruments just furthers the idea that women are inferior to men no?

[QUOTE=TriggerNYC;17753592]a) its pop music and b) if she played tik tok it didnt suck its a pretty hip song but live it prob blows.

you knew kesha got her start bc she broke into Prince's house, woke his *** up while he was aseep in his bed, and left him her demo in a purple ribbon. then got thrown out by security. he liked it called her up and got her studio time. the rest his jimmy fallon history.


lady gaga IS our madonna. i guess ill wait a couple days and catch that kesha performance on youtubes or somethin. sorry i missed it. she looks like she could rock a **** like a haitian earthquake.

what too soon?[/QUOTE]

She did play Tik-Tok, and the only thing good about it was the fact she might have a voice (she didn't show it) and she at least had the mic on. Still not sure wtf was up with her headdress though. It was like an native American head-dress, but with dreads or something like that instead of feathers.

They already have it on Jimmy Fallon's web site if you want to see it. Just fast forward to the very last segment on the player. Though if you don't hit it right you'll probably get an add you'll have to sit through.

Song is awesome. Drums and OD guitars sound they they were ripped straight from an early Dream Theater album (production wise, not playing wise.)


In other news, I just looked up what a Tesseract is, and then looked at what the hell the 4th spacial dimension is, and my head asploded.

I've had a few teachers try to draw up the 4th dimension on the board, and even try to explain up to 16 dimensions (that I remember). Needless to say no one really understood what the hell they were going on about. 4-dimensions isn't the hardest thing ever. I've had to do a problem which was in 4-dimensions. Though trying to visualize/explain that is already confusing enough, let alone more dimensions.

I'm a words person, maths/physics isn't my strong suit. Speaking of which I totally spanked my literature exam this morning. Fu[size=2]c[/size]k you Reformation/Renaissance poetry, fu[size=2]c[/size]k you Shakespeare.

You think? I've never thought about it. The drums are big and roomy and the guitars has a similar midgrowl but with more djentiness.

It's just so epic. I love how they go from palm mute to open string on that chorus-y part. The vocalist really does a good job too!

The vocalist really sells it for me, I love the really long held notes over a furious background sort of thing.

Seriously though, it sounds srs epic, but the drums especially have that early DT feel to them. Not a bad thing, I just wish they were a bit bigger, especially the bass drum, to really give it some force.

Yeah, I agree. Hopefully it'll be fixed until the release. The albums is supposed to be out around April so they still got some time fine-tuning the mix. Can't wait for the album though! All those tiny clips they've leaked are so good. Especially the Eden clips.

nice one mate hope you saw what i was getting at and enjoyed it anyway, my classical will be back to normal in maybe a week

I wouldn't mind getting my hands on an ESP/LTD, if a store around me sold them. That and it is kind of scary as I see a lot of them used around at least one of the stores by me. I of course have no idea where the people are buying them, but seeing a stock pile of them in the used section kind of makes you think.


Thinking about trying SD or EMG pickups... though my original plan was to probably get a cheaper Ibanez RG or RGA series and get a SD Custom-5 for the bridge, then throw my SD Jazz which has been sitting around for about 5 years in the neck. Should have just gotten a Custom-5 back in the day, but I was lured in by the Custom Custom... which was not what I was looking for.

i had an esp lyd viper 400 a while ago. it was while i was still new to the electric guitar and couldnt really play leads, and didnt know what a truss rod or bridge adjustment was. i sold the guitar bc i thought the action was too high and sounded bleh. at the time i didnt know you could lower the action or change the pickups. i didnt really know anything.

id actually REALLY like to have a go at another one of those guitars, bc my opinion of guitars have changed so much over the years. especiallly after getting an ewar for my own sound, having my own playing style, and play differene expensive and budget guitars and pickups and ****.

i saw soe guy on your tube giving zoom G2.u demos, using a starter ltd guitar with an emg 81 in the bridge. i didnt like the way it sounded but i like ibanez budget stuff, think they are much ebtter than squiers and ****, would really like to try out a "cheaper" ltd. i mean if youre getting a guitar in a solid clor without a quilter/flamed multi-layerd top on it, and ur gonna replace the electronics and hardware anyway, what r u really paying for?

[/QUOTE]

I don't mind replacing electronics, but I like to buy a guitar that I don't have to worry about the hardware on. Though I mean one day I have $1-1.5k to throw down I'll buy Warmoth parts and build my own guitar. I like making the guitar, mine, if you will.

Actually met a guy who had a ESP LTD Viper 400 in college. That guitar was a lot heavier than I thought it was going to be. :lol: I'm not sure if he just hadn't had it set up in a while, he didn't play as religiously as he previously did due to college (like myself), but it didn't really play well.

I've just been itching for a guitar with a mahogany body. Though I'm kind of a super-strat addict. I'm actually surprised at the number of guitars that are carrying SD/EMGs now a days and they aren't too dreadfully expensive either.

I'm just interested in getting something that is different than what I have. I've looked at LPs and Explorer style bodies. Fact of the matter is I should have had $600 a couple months back when they were selling ESP LTD MH-1000 practically half off their normal price.

[IMG]http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/99/l_7a53f5f3f1dc423aab1a89c094fbf216.jpg[/IMG]

i love this guitar. it is an LTD. paid 300 "used" (brand fu[COLOR="Black"]c[/COLOR]king new, still had plastic film on pickups no indications of wear anywhere).

s[COLOR="Black"]hi[/COLOR]t rules arse, throw some skinny top heavy bottom rotosounds on it and your ready for whatever youd like

EDIT: it was a definite must to swap pickups though, kind of goes without saying. im just glad i had these two homies chillin in other guitars

[IMG]http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/1395/1263580360877.jpg[/IMG]

dont you do that you bastard!

That guitar is about as weird looking as w/e the hell that bird is. I've seen guitars with that pickup configuration before, but rarely. Though what really gets me is the selector switch/knob positions.


I might have to go down to the shop I mentioned above and try some out. Just digging through the $500-800 range I see:

- ESP LTD Delux EC-1000 (LP Body)
*Prefer the SD pickups in the blue color, but that color comes with EMGs

- ESP LTD MH-401NT (Super Strat)
*EMGs

- Jackson DKMGT Dinky (Super Strat)
*EMGs, again, but I'll be honest I've never actually had the pleasure of playing a guitar with active EMGs. I only know them through bands/videos.

- Hamer Standard Flametop (Explorer body style basically)
* Only Duncan-Design pickups
* Cheaper than the others


Though lets face it, what I need to do is kick my a[size=2]s[/size]s into finishing my resume. So I can get a job, then hopefully get myself a $1-1.2k ESP of my choosing by my birthday in May.

u didnt go to loyola new orleans did you? lol.

i feel amost any guitar i get im gonna end up puyttin my own pickups and pots into, and maybe change the tuners and the nut depending on if its fr or not. and i play with a decent amount of gain in rock bands, so i mean you hear the wood and stuff, but you dont really.

and for the msot part my hands cant tell the diff between my $600 jackson and a $3000 Gibson. and im swapping out the pups on my jackson anyway, so i mean if i can grab a $300 "budget" guitar and do some work on it and itll play just as good (to me) as a thousand dollar guitar, wtf is the point of buying a thousand dollar guitar.
