ESP LTD AX-50 Electric Guitar Silver Satin Chrome Hardware Review

ESP LTD AX-50 Electric Guitar Silver Satin Chrome Hardware
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This guitar is playable out of the box, it's got a heavy/chunky kind of sound, the pick ups are nice, not the greatest but they're good. I loved it as soon as I started playing it. It's one of those guitars that attracts you to play well on it when you pick it up. It's bigger than you'd think, and the silver is beautiful, it's not too heavy, not too light, kind of perfect balance. The fretboard is fast and you'll have no problem going up and down this thing like I95. Did I Mention that it's really attention grabbing? My only qualm with it is that It had a lot of fret buzz when I started playing it but I guess I'll have to break it in.....BUY IT!

Behringer GMX212 2 x 60-Watt Stereo Guitar Amplifier Review

Behringer GMX212 2 x 60-Watt Stereo Guitar Amplifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is great with 99 effects presets and at least 100 watts depending on what speaker configuration you get(Jensen Or Bugera), it is fully gig capable, you can connect external speakers/cab, it has a tuner and comes with a footswitch! It is perfect if you like playing hard rock and metal. And you can have 3 amp simulations(UK:Marshall,Californa:im assuming Fender, and the 3rd is Tweed, and and 3 mode simulations(hot,hi gain,clean)and 3 speaker simulations(US,UK,and Flat) which can be combined! I have my 1st channel preset to Chorus with a little of delay to get that Randy Rhoads tone, and my 2nd channel with Flanger and delay to get a Rhoads/EVH/Hammett sound. It is a very good amp, dont let the price fool you! I compared this to my cousins 75 watt Line 6 Spider II which is more expensive and this one blew it out of the water, my cousin even wanted to trade, of course I said no way. Mine is louder and has a better tone.Id definitely choose this over a Line 6 anyday.

The V-TONE GMX212 may look like a single guitar amp, but by flicking a few switches, it actually gives you access to a multitude of totally different amp voicings. You also get 99 effects presets in stunning 24-bit stereo sound. Plug in your guitar and let your tone odessey begin.

A Virtual Roomful of Gear The 2 x 60-Watt GMX212 is the perfect amp for the guitarist in need of a wide variety of tone. Take your pick of three amp voicings:
TWEED gives you the soulful, bluesy sound of vintage 50s amps
BRITISH gives you the hard-rocking sound of the 1960s British Invasion
CALIF gives you the sparkling clean tones of the American West Coast's most famous amps

Speaker Emulation Combine the above amp emulations with one of three speaker voicings for an even wider tonal palette:
UK simulates 4 x 12" speakers in an enclosed cabinet
US simulates 2 x 12" speakers in an open casing
FLAT is a special setting designed especially for the GMX212's 12-inch BUGERA speakers

Select from CLEAN, HI GAIN or HOT gain settings to go from clean to heavy overdrive, then apply one of 99 digital effect presets for a sound that's uniquely yours. Meanwhile, Behringer's patented DYNAMIZER circuitry captures every nuance of your playing, lending warm tube-like compression to your tone.
Effects Galore The GMX212 features an on-board, 24-bit stereo multi-effects processor with a bevy or world-class effects--chorus, flanging, phasing, rotary, auto-wah, echo, delay, compressor and various effect combinations are available, along with 99 user presets and MIDI control.
Channel Your Tone Its tonal options may be vast and sophisticated, but at its core the GMX212 handles just like a classic guitar amp. Plug into the 1/4" input jack and then take your pick of two channels, each with GAIN, LEVEL, and three-band EQ. You can use the included footswitch to toggle remotely between the two channels – go from clean and reverb-drenched to distorted and delayed at the touch of a button. Put the finishing touches on your sound with the PRESENCE and MASTER dials.
Stay In Tune Thanks to the integrated auto-chromatic tuner (controllable via the included footswitch), there's no need for an external tuning pedal.
Back Panel Discussion We have given the GMX212 an extensive back panel for even more sound routing options. There you will find a loudspeaker output for connecting an additional speaker cabinet, a headphone output with speaker simulation, an adjustable AUX IN for devices like drum machines, and an RCA INPUT allowing you to play along with a CD player. There are stereo RCA and line outputs with speaker simulation for direct recording. An additional 1/4" jack connects to external effects devices. Plug a MIDI controller such as the Behringer FCB1010 into the GMX212's MIDI IN for even further remote control over the onboard effects.

Dean Michael Schenker Standard Guitar Review

Dean Michael Schenker Standard Guitar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have owned my Dean Michael Schenker sig V for 3 or 4 years now and I love it. It's my go-to guitar for metal(I use my Strat and Les Paul for more classic and stoner rock). I did put an EMG 81 in the bridge(leaving the passive neck pickup out of the circuit), but I didn't feel like I HAD to... I just wanted to try active pickups. The finish is just fine, the fretboard has no sharp fret ends, neck pocket is tight. I really have no complaints whatsoever about this guitar, especially at the price they're selling em for... no, it's not a 'custom shop' equivalent, but it suits me just fine. I give it a solid 4 stars.

Dean Dime Guitar from Hell with Case Review

Dean Dime Guitar from Hell with Case
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Dime would be proud, I loved his Washburn guitars, but always wanted a Dean like he started with... when they came out with these dime lines I kept telling myself I didn't need one, when they started selling them on Amazon, I watched them for years, finally Amazon tempted me too greatly with the $526 price tag and I jumped in and wish I had done so sooner... This thing shreds... I love playing it. I liked Dean, but hadn't owned one, they are great for their price range and even better getting them for a steal. It sounds great, plays fast, and looks good doing it. The case is great too.
Besides if you're looking at this you already know why you want it, I'm just affirming that it is the one you're looking for...

Dean Dimebag Razorback Explosion Guitar, Case inlcuded Review

Dean Dimebag Razorback Explosion Guitar, Case inlcuded
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have purchased MANY items from Amazon over the last few years, and I have to say, I have never been disappointed, until now. This review is more directed to Amazon, than this guitar, a Dean Dimebag Razorback Explosion, which I'm sure is awesome! My son found this online here a few days ago and put in his cart until he could get the money to purchase it. The guitar was $514. He had that money today and went to purchase it and found out it had increased to over $800. He contacted Amazon and they said they could not do anything about it! I am very disappointed that someone can advertise a product here at one price and then just a few days later, raise the price over $300 for the same item! I may not be purchasing again from Amazon.

ESP LTD KH202 Kirk Hammett Electric Guitar (Black) Review

ESP LTD KH202 Kirk Hammett Electric Guitar (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have had my KH 202 for about four months now, and I have been very happy with it. It is a great looking instrument, and has a very balanced feel. The skull inlays are very eye-catching, and really give it that metal edge. The action was adjusted perfectly from the factory. Low and fast, easy to play. The licensed Floyd Rose trem works beautifully, and stays in tune better than my Dean hardtail. The EMG designed pickups have a good sound and tone range. I'm going to update them with a hotter passive EMG H4/H4A pair in the near future. If you are a Kirk Hammett or Metallica fan, this is your ticket for under 500 dollars. Even if you aren't, you will not be disappointed with this guitar.

Dean V Dave Mustaine Guitar, Bolt-on Metallic Silver Review

Dean V Dave Mustaine Guitar, Bolt-on Metallic Silver
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The pick-ups are very nice and deliver a lot of chunk (far from sounding muddy). The two volume knobs have allowed me to achive sounds I could never get with my single vol knob guitars. The Grover tuners are the best I've ever owned. The fret board is beautifully polished, easy to navigate, and very fast. The string-through body realy does increase sustain, and it's very easy to re-string. The paint is also very nice, and easy to keep clean. It's a rather large guitar, it took over an hour at Guitar Center to find a case to accomidate both its length & width. But I would'nt let the size turn u off, it has great balance and it's comfortable to play even while sitting (it's an absolute blast to play). Finally, I had to drill another hole in my guitar-stand a few inches higher to raise the base-cradle because the points on the "V" were so long they would hit the ground (it was easy). Now, I did write another review here at amazon on this same guitar (black model) before I saw this listing - which is the color I have. Anyway I truely hope this reiew is helpfull.

Dean V Dave Mustaine Guitar, Bolt-on Classic Black Review

Dean V Dave Mustaine Guitar, Bolt-on Classic Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I used to play guitar years ago. I had never gotten truly proficient, but I knew a number of songs and wasn't bad at playing them. The problem was, I never really felt like I could play the stuff I listened to - Metallica, Megadeth, etc. Now, after about 8 or 9 years of not having a guitar (pawned off all of the guitars I had over the years, in needing to pay bills - never again!), I decided to pick up a guitar - one that would inspire me to learn some of my favorite songs ("The Thing That Should Not Be" and "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)", for example.)
While I didn't buy this guitar from Amazon (I want to be able to hold and play an instrument before buying it), I'm quite happy that I did buy it. It may be the "low end" of the Dave Mustaine signature series but, as far as I can tell, there's nothing lacking other than a few frills like upgraded inlays and custom paint jobs.
I've had my guitar for about a week now and I can't put it down. I've yet to find anything wrong with it or anything to complain about, save for the positioning of the strap buttons - one is right behind the neck, where it bolts on to the body, and the other is on the underside of the "top" leg of the V. A little difficult to get used to if you're used to strat-styles, but still pretty comfortable. I don't know if I'll ever be able to truly shred out some of the solos in some of the songs I want to learn, but I do know that I'll enjoy trying while playing this guitar. :D

Average Reviews:

If you are a huge Megadeth fan this guitar is a BIG peace of art, the neck is very confortable and it isn't heavy as a les paul which makes it a great guitar for hours of practicing and playing.
The pick ups have a strong output signal with a great Mustaine tone, and the deluxe hard case for this guitar brings a good protection for the instrument.
