As my main guitar i operate a parker p-38 with an EMG 81 in the bridge postision. I cant complain about anything on this guitar, i can get a decent metal, a decent clean, and a decent classic rock sound. The neck is thin, the action is low, and it gives me alot of options with the piezos and the emg.

My bad ass piece of shit guitar is a PRS santana SE. I bought it at gc a while back because it was 150. It was so low because it had a little paint chip in it. I ended up stripping the paint and getting a pretty decent wood finish. The paint is still around the edges so it has kinda an original look. I was bored one day and i never used it so i took an old gibson fixed bridge and put it in there. The santana SE has a tremelo system on it. SO uh....theres a huge gaping whole now. When i finally got it all dont i noticed the action was pretty uneven and high on the higher frets so i had to rout a hole into where the bridge fits so the action and intonation was where i needed it.

I also have a left handed takamine acoustic that i switched around to make it right handed. i had to wire one of those stationary dean markleys in it to get it to work correctly because i couldnt the wire the old pickup in due to some of the work i previously did.

I got a cheap samik from a pawn shop. i got 40% off because it had a big chink of its finish missing. My dad fixedit up though. it sounds fine.
I have a fuked little fender that i put through a 100 watt bms speakerand, it sounds pretty decent.

Ill have to try screwing a new amp into my own deal like that other guy did. heehee!

The Jackson Warrior XT's are nice. Some of them come with Kahler tremolo's instead of Floyd's, which is even better!

I think I want to try out one of them magic kahler tremolo's... haneman uses one, so it's probably pretty good stuff...

The good thing about Kahler tremolo's is that you don't need to adjust the springs if you want to tune higher, or lower, or get a thicker or thinner gauge string, for it will level itself.
You can bend up way higher because the cavity is very deep. More sustain added to your Guitar because it is heavy duty, unlike the Licensed Floyd Rose. (Although Original Floyd Rose's have the heat treated steel bottom for the Sustain part).
Now, I'm talking about the "Kahler Pro" or the "Kahler Flyer"...the Kahler "Spyder" (the one that comes with the Warrior XT, is Floyd Rose-like, and it works like a Floyd Rose, just different look, and name.)
I believe Jeff Hanneman uses the Flyer. The Pro, and Flyer, are both the same I think, I don't see a difference in them.

woh, so you mean you can tune your guitar in D or C# without having to fuck with the bloody springs on the trem?? and without having a banana shaped neck??
are these things sold seperatly and can you replace a floyd for a kahler without extra drilling and stuff?

yeah about the floyds, most are fake, like on ibanez etc... I didn't ever try a real one I think.. well, maybe I wouldn't even notice the diffrence, I'm a bassplayer not a real guitarplayer.. but guitar is also fun.

No, your neck won't get messed up, the Kahler adjusts to what the tension is on the strings.
You do not have to mess with springs.
You know, Kahler tremolo's where first made for Basses? what do you think that kind of bridge is on Les Claypools (Primus) Bass?

You can't replace your Guitar with a Kahler until you drill a bigger cavity, because as you see, it's not the same shape as a Floyd Rose.
And if your body doesn't even have a Floyd Rose cavity, you have a lot of work to do.

ofcourse it has

but that's fucking amazing man, are these things expensive? I hate fucking around with those floyd springs...

I know les claypool, but I don'tlike his style and I don't like his band
I don't really see the point in having a trem on a bass, but it's probably fun to do a slide on a 5-er, E slide down to 12th and B slide up to 1 while using a trem :P :P :P

I don't like Primus either...I just brought that up with the Kahler thing..
Kahler's should be around the same price as ORIGINAL Floyd Rose's.
Unless you want to buy the cheap version of Kahler's.....they're called "Schaller".

i use an esp ltd 7string...has a dimarzio tone zone 7 pickup at the bridge. i also have a strat-copy yamaha eg303...surprises me though, it sounds really really good for a somewhat cheap starter guitar, good clean tones but can get some nice chunk too.

My main preforming Axe is a Gibson Gothic Flying V with Brite wires (9-46). It has a GREAT SOUND to it and but I think when I get the Gibson Flying 67, I will make it a secondary stage guitar

My main practice guitar is a Gretch(I don't know the model cause it was an heirloom from my dad. He bought it in '81.) But it has DiMarizo pickups and britewires as well and it sounds GREAT. I think I would use it for ballads on Stage cause it doesn't have much of a bass heavy sound as the V when it's clean

My guitar...

Schecter C-1 that I put a pair of Seymour Duncan Invaders in. This has become my mainstay guitar. I love the way it plays, very smooth...fast neck and because it has a fixed bridge it stays in tune. I want to get one with a set neck. Working on that next. I have had a Gibson Les Paul Studio, a couple of standard (fat and traditional setup) Stratocasters, a couple of Squire strats, three Kramers (two Strikers and a Berreta...from way back in the day, can you say 1985?) Several acoustics, my favorite was an Ovation. I have no idea what model. I traded an old Peavy bass for it. I play through a Digitech GNX3 and a Fender Champion 30. That GNX3 is the shit. Even though I hate tremolo bridges, I WILL get an ESP Kamikaze (ala George Lynch) and an Ibanez Satriani model (JS100 I think). Just because they are my heros.

While not a big Jackson fan, I would have to say that I would love to have a DKMG Archtop in Black Forest. That is the only Jackson I have played that I could get used to and afford. Maybe someday.

Is it your only guitar? How does the tremolo hold up? I really liked it, I'm partial to archtop guitars, they just look so much better in my opinion. The black forest finish is sweet, there was a cobalt blue one I saw also, but I didn't like it as much as the black forest one.

nope, i've got 5 or 6 other guitars. The DKMG is the only, ONLY, ONLY guitar i haven't had to work on. Even when i am messing with the tuning and stuff, the bridge doesn't get to bad and i know its only temporarily so its fine. The floyd rose is extremely nice, it may be a pay in the ass but oh it is such a pay off when you have everything perfect on it.

A Morgan (Strat copy) with three single coils in it, currently tuned to C, but has no locking tremolo system, so it's the guitar that I use for non-Eb tuning.

And a Jackson KE3, tuned to Eb (I play a hell of a lot Iced Earth), and seldom tuned to anything else.
