    NGD after almost a decade almost goes sour -Truss Rod help needed - GMP Custom Shop 1994-6 model

    After almost a decade of not buying gear (I haven't recorded or played in any band and along with a despondency for the scene, I just practice daily for my own sake) I found a pretty neat deal on a GMP guitar in Germany. I always had a thing for GMPs after checking Jack Frost (ex-Savatage) and...

    NGD... Well sort of

    A few weeks ago I got a bad case of GAS... Found myself a 1970's Ibanez Les Paul with a maple fretboard. Replaced the pickups with the DiMarzio Titan pickups (which sound rad by the way) and replaced the tuners and bridge. I think I'll call her blondie :hbang: Plays like a dream!

    Opinions on Ibanez Premium RG927QMF?

    I'm thinking about buying an Ibanez Premium RG927QMF to then swap the pups for some BKPs, add sperzel locking tuners and earvana compensated nut. The original plan was to buy a JP12 7 but I don't have THAT much money, any opinions on this guitar? (unfortunately I can't try before I buy because...

    Tuning issue solutions for my Jackson SLSMG?

    Hey guys, I've got a Jackson SLSMG(obviously) and for some reason I can't keep the G from going out of tune. Every time I bend a full step it starts going out of tune. Also not that I'm not unreasonable with the force I put into my bends. They're very conservative. I just had a graphtech xl...

    6 string blackmachine clone build progress

    I recently traded some pickups for a nice chunk of mahogany with a guy just to find out he would shape a body the way I like for free. Like many of you guys I'm kinda Blackmachine fanboy, so I gave it a try, since ordering the real thing from Brazil is somewhat not an option. So, here are...

    Going to clone a Blackmachine 8 - advices wanted

    Hey, guys! Well, I'm going to "clone" a Blackmachine 8. I decided for going neckthrough after some research - and because it looks pretty neat, also. My other axes are an ESP M-II Deluxe and a Schecter Omen-7, both being bolt-on. So I think it's time to give NT a chance. Hardware will be as...
