  1. I ordered a fretboard this summer and they just left it outside my house... UPS is frigging stupid.. luckily it was normal temperature or it coulda really ****ed the wood up.. but still, shouldnt be able to do that..

    Matt we need some updates on this thing, Gogogo

    btw desopolis.. Thought I just might let you know, he means -12 celcius lol O_O You may think like "God im not that dumb" but some americans honestly think the temperature goes from 60 F to -12 F as soon as you cross the border.. lol

  2. Im looking for two 12" PA/guitar speakers that are 8ohms, and 125watt minimum each... and two 10" also (same specs)

    Anyone know where I can find the best prices for something like this that would sound alright for a PA system?

    Im in Canada, so places like ZZsounds is not possible

    Thanks

  3. Alright guys, I am using a Pod XT into a PA, No amp head here, and my best bet is PA speakers..

    I have my own cab built, but i need speakers, and im not a fan of v30s and normal guitar speakers because A) it colours the sound and :D too low wattage

    my PA is 500watts, so im hoping to get 4 speakers at least 150w each, just so they wont blow

    We will disregard ohm, since I have that all understood and know what I need to fry it

    but im wondering, Car speakers... are they good enough for replacement PA speakers? like the cheap ones on ebay that are like $50 a pair, but 250watts, would those work good for my PA system?

    Those are basically the type that im talking about, or something like this

    Anyone have any advice?

  4. Not sure if this would go in here or where..

    Im looking to find an Ibanez RG 7 string of some sort, Preferably a 7621 or 7421, but I wanna get it refinished to (with a blue quilt veneer top) so I thought I would ask on here if anyone is selling a RG 7 and can refinish it for me with a Blue quilt top.. That would be amazing! Also would like to replace the fretboard with one I have right now at my house.. I am pretty sure its sized for a 7...

    I have abunch of guitar stuff to trade, including a great condition Ibanez SZ or a RG570, or cash.. or a combination possibly.. Either way, what im trying to say is I REALLY want a RG7 with a blue quilt top, and I tried refinishing my own guitars, and they turned out really bad.

    If anyone has one and can help me, PM me please! Very interested and wanting one =]

  5. Yea thats why my custom im getting made, is gonna have my name on the back of the headstock.. Hehe that way if it gets stolen, People will know..

    Its gonna be really original anyways, so one of a kind, along with my name and such.. Should be better off incase it gets stolen.. but im scared because theres been about 5-6 guitars stolen in my city in the past 2 months.. and my dads CD player in his car just got stolen like 3 weeks ago.. horrible people

  6. If you could do a refinish on the top of it, put a quilted maple veneer on it with trans blue, and I send you a fretboard for you to install on it, I would buy it for a good price =]

    I have a ton of guitar parts, lots of 6 string necks/pickups and such, random stuff.. if you were interested

  7. Hmm I have a better idea now..

    What if I got 2 speakers, both 8 ohms... but one was a car speaker, 200watt rms, and the other was just a normal guitar speaker, used and cheap.. but still working. This way, I could use them parralell, to equal 4ohms, and I would get maximum wattage since the car speaker is giving off 200w rms, and the other one is still doing decent. Would this just make one side alot louder? or would they be roughly the same

    the speaker im thinking of getting is this, I was thinking of getting two, but it is kinda expensive (well not realy, but I know I can find cheaper, cause with the shipping it goes well over 100 heh)

  8. Hello, Im going to make my own 2x12 amp.. so I bought a 2x12 cab, Thats taken care of. Now I just need speakers..

    Im running basically a PA system, so I don't want any colouring of my sound thru the speakers, and I also am on a budget.. Heres my current set up

    Guitar > Pod XT Live > Behringer A500 (pure poweramp, no effects) > this 2x12 cab

    So, I am looking for what kinda speakers I should buy that would be best for me, in terms of money/effectiveness..

    My A500 says "4ohm minimum on Stereo - 233watt, and 8ohm minimum on Mono - 500watt..." So I know I am going to need two 8ohm speakers to wire in series or paralell to achieve the 4ohm minimum for Stereo.. So I know two 8 ohm speakers..

    I was looking on ebay, and saw some PA/car speakers, they normally have like.. "200 watts program / 450 watts peak"... now since when im doing stereo, the maximum output will be 233watts, Will that mean that these speakers will be too much for my PA? Or does it not matter how much watts the speakers can take, and wont damage my PA?

    This is what im talking about, not saying these exact speakers, but would 2 of these wired in series or paralell be ok for my PA? or will it damage it because the wattage is way higher than my PA?

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks

    OR say if these were 8ohms, could I put two of these in my cab and run it thru the PA without damaging it?

    They say like 1000watts.. would that kill my PA?
