I really like Fender, if only I could play it better. Gibsons are way too overpriced.

Fender = very good if you want their sound

Gibson = extremely high quality, but equally high priced

Ibanez = middle ground sound-wise, and a moderate price


I've got an Ibanez, and I'm happy with it for now. The new amp makes it all that much better.

It's amazing.

I had some trouble at first figuring out exactly how I wanted the adjustments. But once I figured it out, it was awesome.

I already know exactly where to set the delay to make Middle of Yesterday's intro when done live (just the first part of the verse played before the song). :mrgreen:

And I've found the perfect combination of my Gov'nor pedal and the amp's distortion to get a super sharp solo distortion (I use my regular distortion tone on my pedal, and a light but very sharp distortion on the amp [it's got its own pedal]).

I wanted to see how loud it could go ( :evil: ), so I turned up both volume knobs for clean channel (one for the clean channel, and one master volume) all the way up. I then tried playing the bass intro from Naveed (I didn't want to break glass with something high). I could feel every vibration. And every pick I had sitting on top of the amp fell on the floor. :lol: Luckily, my parents weren't home!
