    The Lord of The Rings: The Rings of Power

    This series can be described by three words: Hot Woke Garbage. The showrunners only claim to fame is that they wrote one of the scripts from Star Trek Beyond. They are also straight from the stable of Jar Jar Abrams, the cinematic anti-Christ. Amazon used to hire the pre-eminent Tolkien...

    How the Edge changed the sound of guitar playing forever: 17 guitarists share their favorite U2 moments

    Hey, no need to apologize. I am a big boy and you are entitled to your opinions. Personally, EVH does nothing for me. I can recognize that the man is a genius, but EVH never made as big a splash in Europe as he did in the US. US = stadiums, in Europe = arenas and clubs. So EVH never registered...

    Rosewood fretboards

    Logically fretboard wood should be of no influence whatsoever in making unwanted noises in the interaction between string, fingers and frets. I'm kinda puzzled why the OP thinks it does. Stainless steel frets for the win! They're the only ones I use in my builds.

    How the Edge changed the sound of guitar playing forever: 17 guitarists share their favorite U2 moments

    I should of course have said that my remark was made towards Bill Bailey, not you personally. And I come across that type of comment that Bill Bailey made often enough. Did Edge change the sound of guitar playing forever? Probably too big to say. I don't think EVH changed the sound of guitar...

    How the Edge changed the sound of guitar playing forever: 17 guitarists share their favorite U2 moments

    I think this one encapsulates everything I like about The Edge" You can show me the Southpark 'Bono IS the record' episode and I'll crack up laughing. But show me one of those guitar snob asshats who go, (bitchy HeelsvsBabyface voice) the Edge only has one sound and without effects he has...

    EJ likes the vintage tone, but he obviously still understands that a guitar is a tool to be used, not a museum piece to be put behind plastic.
