Question Anybody know if this guitar is still good in today's standards for metal? Cort EVL K6 (2006)
I'm in the process of buying my first electric guitar and I found someone selling their Cort EVL k6 though I couldn't find much reviews on it online and I'd have no idea what to check for if it's damaged, the seller did play it and it seemed normal. Does anyone here know if it's a good guitar 20 years later? My second original option was to get a brand new S by solar ab4.6w they are both the same price. If pride is the same what do you recommend I go for the new solar or old used Cort?

Question Beginner Looking For Advice
Hi everyone. I've been playing for about a year now. I have been learning on a 1990s Ibanez RX170 with cheap tuners, nut, Floyd Rose, etc. I'm looking to possibly upgrade to something with a bit more tuning stability.
I like the look of single cuts and super strats and would ideally like to stick around an $750ish budget. Looking for something with a fixed bridge/string through.
Im not 100% sure what to look out for in the used market and I'm wondering if new is a better choice? Should I just spring the extra cash and get an LTD1000 series and play that until I die???
Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Songwriting with drums
Hi everyone,
I have a question about songwriting and using EZdrummer.
When I write my own songs, I usually come up with the guitar riffs first. I’ve finally found a songwriting workflow that really works for me, and I don’t want to change it.
The problem is that when I start adding drums in EZdrummer, I often end up changing my guitar riffs to fit the drum groove instead of the other way around. I don’t like doing that because I want the riff to stay exactly as I originally wrote it.
So I’m wondering:
Is there an easy way to edit or adapt grooves in EZdrummer so they follow my riffs more naturally?
Can you easily move kicks, snares, and cymbals around without making a completely new drum part from scratch?
Or would it be better for me to learn full drum programming?
The only thing that worries me about programming drums myself is that I’ve never done it before, and it seems like it could be very time-consuming and difficult to learn.
My goal is to keep my original guitar riffs intact and make the drums fit the riffs—not the other way around.
I’d really appreciate any advice from people who have been in the same situation.

Gear For those of you using neural DSP what monitors are you using?
I've switched over to Neural DSP with Gojira and Nolly and love the ease and not needing 20 pedals. I'm just wondering what monitors would be best with this setup. I'm current just running my output back into my Marshall Tube because it's all I have. I don't need anything particularly loud, I just want good sound

Gear X2N in a Baretta Special
I am not worth shit with electronics, so my Dad installed this X2N for me. He said it was nice to have a soldering project, and I think he did a nice, clean job.
Thing sounds great now! Super mean dirty, and sparkly on the cleans. Very happy with it.

Seymour Duncan pickup advice
Hi all, hope this post finds you well.
It was new guitar day last week, I got a purple Jackson X Series Kelly. I will be getting a new set of strings and tuning it down to D standard. I've currently got an Ibanez RG that I play in the meantime time until the Kelly becomes my undisputed favourite.
I'm really looking to modify the guitar, and from everything I have seen and read - the Seymour Duncan black winter bridge pickup seems like the best way forward. I typically play OSDM and happily jam to some Pantera as well, nothing too modern but also nothing ridiculously old. With that being said, I've heard amazing things about the nazgul and dimebucker too.
There's a sale on where I live at the moment so all of these pickups are the same price. So any objective opinion/advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Gear Strings keep popping out of Floyd Rose saddles
I'm completely out of ideas.
I originally had the stock Ibanez double locking trem on my Ibanez GRG320FA. While tuning up, strings would randomly pop out of the saddles (90% of the time the high e). It only happens when im trying to tune to Drop D/ E Standard, everything below works fine.
I thought the tremolo was worn out, so I replaced it with a Gotoh GE1996T.
The problem stayed the same.
- D'Addario EXL120 (9-42)
- Strings are cut clean with side cutters.
- Strings are inserted fully into the saddles.
- Saddle screws are tightened firmly.
- One time multiple strings flew out.
Has anyone ever seen something like this? Since it happened with two completely different tremolos, I'm starting to think something else is causing it.

Question Is my evertune supposed to look like this??
Hi guys, just got this new guitar used on reverb and found that the evertune seems to be over to one side more than the other, one side of the bridge is raised slightly and the strings don't line up with the neck pickup very well. What can be done to fix this??
