well i don't actually own a zoom but i'm planning on buying one and i found a great site for presets:

it's got one zeppelin tone i'm sure but i'm not sure if it's the one they used on kashmir.

The concept is simple there are mutiple effect that can be set up and stored and used at the touch of a pedal, the problem is there is a half inch thick tech manul that you need to know first and it is like reading, well a multi effects manual. Don't fret, play with the thing, expierment with it you really can't hurt it so try to take it piece by piece, little by little rather than trying to learn everything at once. I have not played with the RP2000, but have used the Boss GT-3 and other multi efects systems and the same applies "Learn by Doing" and don't be affraid to expierment.

First, be sure you want to use these gauge strings for a long time before filing the nut, cause if you don't like the new strings, you'll need a new nut. I would have a tech set your guitar up. not only will the nut have to be filed, but you will need your guitar strobe tuned with the new gauge strings. Good luck.

Do you mean Lynch's "Will Work For Food" new release? I got it yesterday. It's really cool- some very wild playing. My one complaint would be that he plays most of his cover songs note for note- the only things he adds different from the original versions are the solos, and some of those are note for note with the original too. I'd like to see George get a little more free and let loose.

: still looking for anyone whos has an opinion on the ESP Lynch Skull & Snakes guitar. Thanks.

i have got one, it is superb. low action, beautiful neck, superb sound, and amazing build quality

That should work.

: OK I have an amp with no headphone jack, but it has a line out. i also have a zoom 707 which has an input and output (the output doubles as a headphone jack). heres my question: could plug a cable into the line out, plug that into the input of the 707, then bypass the 7707, and then just plug my phones into the 707's phone jack? I need some advice before i try this so i dont burn my house down or anything! thanx

The best thing is to go out and play as many different types and choose what feels right to you. One bit of advice regardless of which type you get it is well advised to get a good quality guitar, don't get a cheap knockoff and don't be afarid to play guitars that are out of your price range this is a good thing to do then you will have an idea of what a real quality guitar feels like vs. a cheap guitar.

Good Luck

I have one in my Jackson Soloist. It does stabilize the tuning. The only thing bad that I can say is that it also tightens up the whammy bar so you have to use more effort. It is a trade off. If you bash a lot of chords rather than pure lead playing it is definately a good product.

its worth about 700 now..in 10 years...who can say? if some guitar hero comes out playing a 70's tele it could be worth alot...if not...i doubt it would be worth all that much more.

Thats somewhat of the "official" patch library. I found some cool stuff there, but ive yet to find more.

1525 Australion dollars converted from Dutch guilders (retailprice in the Netherland 1950-, guilders)

that set up seems like it would sound very close to cobain

: Anyone know how to program a good Cobainesque distortion and chorus on the RP2000 effects board? For referene, I have a fender princeton65 amp and a *ducks from personal attacks* a squier strat.

: Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

The Parker is truly a great guitar. They play and sound very similar to a Fender. One of the things I like about them is that they are very versatile, which is partly why they can be compared to the Strat. What makes them (dare I say) better is that they also have piezos on the bridge to offer an accoustic sound. (There's the whole steroe deal, so you can play two different sound through two different amps). But you're not restricted to using the piezos just for the acoustic sound. Since they don't produce feedback like a regular acoustic, you can play through and electric amp. In fact, you can combine both the magnetic pickups with the piezos to get a wide variety of sound. You can find more about how to do this by visiting the parkerguitars.com site and looking under the section "Benefits and Applications of a Mag/Piezo System."

: Anyone have a good idea on the breadth of sound on these guitars? I hear they can go from Strat like to humbucker crunch. Any oppinions would be appreciated.
: Dennis
Hi Dennis, I can tell you that I use my Parker Fly Classic at the gig and the sounds I get are so huge and the variety is enormous. I play the magnetic pick-ups through a Line 6 Flextone II which by itself is a real kicker, and I send the Accoustic side through a
Gallien Kruger Guitar Amp with a Yamaha 4x10 Cabinet.
The Sound is just enormous, and it gets real crazy when I put it through the PA. To sum it up...I could never go back to my old guitars. Nothing Plays like a Parker Fly Guitar

: My strings keep on corroding and then breaking right at the bridge. I clean them often but they keep breaking.I use DR tite-fit 11's and have tried other strings also. Is there a really strong string out there that is able to resist corrosion better or some sort of special cleaner.please help.--Sweaty Palms

Is it always the same string, or are you breaking different ones? It sounds to me like there maybe a little burr - you know, a little rough edge to the metal - on your bridge. I don't think you're going to get anywhere looking for extra-strong strings - I've certainly never heard of any. Could you borrow a guitar for a while and see if the same problem occurs with that one? Then you'll know if its your guitar rather than the strings. A guitar tech could probably file the bridge smooth for you, if you weren't comfortable doing it yourself You could replace it, but that would obviously be a more expensive option.
