Yep. Save yourself the trouble. I've compared guitars in the studio already. Was just adding my two cents.

Hmm. I've tried recording sections of songs with different guitars on countless occasions to capture different tones and always find a marked difference. Cheaper guitars with upgraded pups can lift the quality a lot but often there is a lack of fullness and definition on cheaper axes compared to...

I have an SSL Nucleus and love it. I find I listen more to make decisions rather than looking when EQ'ing and using the faders.

Yes very sad. Our last single was done at Sterling. Did some great albums. Didn't know he had cancer actually.

Apogee One with Golden Age pre. Both good for the price.

Very cool pics man!

Hey people, just wanted to post the music video we have just completed. I've lurked on the Sneap forum for quite a long time but haven't made heaps of posts. I've learned a lot here and wanted to show what I've come up with. I have tracked our entire album, apart from the drums, and played the...
