  1. lol those aren't actually mine, they're just a pic in my signature. I only have one SG. I'd actually prefer to get a Les Paul or a Firebird and make it left handed.

  2. A cover of Stevie Wonder's Superstitious by Phil X on youtube.
  3. Stop Breaking Down - The White Stripes
  4. We Are Going to be Friends - The White Stripes ...I was originally going to say Hells Bells by AC/DC... being a funeral and all lol
  5. I've been using Gibson's special alloy strings for a while. I love the sound of them. (although i'm not using 10's) But I'm about to try another brand.
  6. No not yet. I'm waiting to see what my balance in the bank is before i buy the strings. Then I'll get them.
  7. EDIT: Actually, it's not the first three strings, High E, B and G strings. It's the fatter strings that I hate about the 10' set. I like those strings to be good and small to fit my hands. I've tried the hybrid strings, but the wrong strings were in the hybrid set lol. 10's are standard on most guitars, but 9's are the most comfortable size for me. And i think i have solved the problem, as i'm replacing the stop bar and tunomatic with a wraparound bridge. And I mean it's a tunomatic combo. It's not like the ones you can't adjust or anything(like on the sg jrs). It's temporary until i get a gibson. It'll all work out, I know it will. I'm excited to get my new bridge, I also got the witch hat knobs like on the late 60's sgs.
  8. Yeah 10's are too thick for me. And 8's are too thin.
  9. I'm really thinking about the pure nickel strings right now. I'm going to give the classic rock n roll ernie ball strings a try.
  10. It' a Fender frontman reverb amp.
  11. Not like i can afford either one at the moment anyways. I could be happy with my 38 watt amp if i could get the sound i want out of it.
  12. Anyone know the difference between The Ernie Ball slinkys and the Classic Ernie Ball strings? The ones that have rock n roll on the front.
  13. The title says it all. I've tried Ernie Ball, they never lasted two weeks, and Gibson strings. Gibson strings have lasted me a long time. What other brands out there are really good? --The thing about Ernie Ball strings, 1, i bought them from a local pawn shop(best guitar store around here sadly) and 2 i had my string breaking problem on the stop bar tail piece at that time(which is now resolved)-- I'm on a tight budget too.
  14. I top wrap because I'll break my strings if i don't. If i just string through, the stop bar tailpiece cuts my strings. Top Wrapping doesn't really change anything. It hasn't changed my sound all too much. Nor has it damaged anything. I've noticed my strings lasted twice as long.. But it'll probably be different for other people.
  15. I mentioned him in the first response to this thread.
  16. Wasn't it a late 60's special?
  17. Hey don't forget me... wait.. im not famous yet.. dang
  18. Frank Zappa, Jimmy Page(double neck), Johnny Winter, Gary Rossington
  19. Derek Trucks, Tony Iommi, and Pete Townshend. That's some more. EDIT: And Elliot Easton
