[QUOTE="DestroyYouAlot:507298"]Hey, long time, no post. I've got some gear questions, and I'm a retard at this stuff, so I figured I'd throw it out there - any help'd be appreciated. I'm playing guitar in a band with Bay-area thrash and doom influences. I've been playing bass for about 13 years, and messing around with guitar for almost as long, but I've never played guitar in a band, before, and I'm not sure how to get the sound I'm looking for out of the equipment I've got to work with. I've got an ESP LTD M-100 (mine), stock pickups, which plays great. I'm playing through a Fender Stage-100 (not mine), it's a three-channel solid state 100-watt amp with a footswitch, effects loop, and not much else. It's got plenty of power for what I'm using it for, I haven't had it much past 2 and I'm competing with a monster stack. I'm trying to get a tone with a ton of gain, but not super-noisy and with good definition on palm-muted picking. (Think Sweden.) As it is, I've pretty much got everything all the way up or down - gain on 10, treble on 10, mid on 0, bass on 10, with a tiny touch of reverb. It's not a bad sound, but it's missing a little something as far as a super-saturated distortion goes, and there's not as much bass as I'd like. I'm also thinking about something to get a "lead boost" - the amp has a "more gain" switch, but I'm already playing with that on. I've got a Boss MZ-1 Metalizer, and I was thinking that could see some use either a) to add some oomph to the distortion, or b) to use as a switchable lead boost, possibly with one of the doubling effects switched on. I'd like to add some higher-gain pickups to the guitar, but I can't afford to, right now. Any suggestions on that would be welcome for the future, though. Besides that, I don't have a lot to spend on add-ons, but suggest'em anyway. Mainly what I'm looking for is any tricks I can pull with what I already have. Any ideas, folks? Oh, and fuck Joe Christianni. [/QUOTE]
