Gear 12

I've been using this guitar live and in the studio for a few years now, for something so inexpensive, it destroys. I use it with an EMG 81 in the bridge and an EMG 60 in the neck. I've absolutely wonderful to play and sounds absolutely pissed.
This head is everything I've looked for over the years, it is absolutely crushing for heavy riffs, really precise for intricate riffs, and cleans up well for solos without turning into an Ice Pick. Paired up with the Avatar G412 Contemporary, I've never heard my hands through anything better.
This little thing was given to me as a gift and I accepted just so I could see what I could turn it into, but after a quick polish, set up, and restring, it's one of my favorite guitars and has come out to play better than most fenders I've ever picked up in my time. Very surprising, the deep blue is gorgeous and the flamed maple neck is absolutely beautifully done.
This head right here is the first Tube Amp I'd ever owned. Though Bugera doesn't have the best reputation, this one certainly takes the cake as my favorite from their lineup. If you can find one reasonably priced, and you play metal, absolutely pick it up, it's a great starting point, not as refined as I'd like, but still pretty good. The clean is incredible.
These strings are the best lasting, best feeling, and best sounding that I've ever had, every guitar in my arsenal has a set of these on it.
I was searching for something that I can use Backstage, in the car, in my bedroom, pretty much anywhere, and still have a great tone. I played one at a local Guitar Center and immediately ordered it, it's flawless for good rock/metal tone, and anything in between. Sound is really really full for the size and plugging into the aux jack on these things and playing along to things works seamlessly.
I have the 412 version of this cab loaded with Celestions, it is ridiculously good and adds a delicious angry and sweet bite to my tone at the same time.
As I stated above, the sound is great, the feel is great, absolutely smooth and precise in sound and playability. Definitely a good deal to get one if you can.
I picked up the JS32RM about a year or so ago as a splurge buy because it looked really cool with its red lettering and bevels on a black body, I did need to replace the nut and one of the saddles after a few months, but it plays well and sounds decent, would recommend replacing the pickups with some EMG's or some Seymour's. as the ones in here lack bite and are a mouthful of mud.
I've got the version of this with the digital readout and the light bars that come out, definitely worth every penny.
Standard pickup used for metal by almost everyone for a reason. They kick ass.
Absolutely love this thing as a neck pickup, has a unique tone and solo tones are just delicious.
