@joeboo22 Playing ability IS NOT what dictates the equipment one should be using. Conversely, the tone one desires IS what dictates the equipment one should be using. This type of music isn't exactly my cup of tea, but he probably has the tone that he is looking for.

Why is that stool placed there? Do you ever use it, and is it comfy like, say a really comfy one? Is the pollster black, or white?

And if so, why did you choose that specific color?? Is it because it went good with the white walls?

[ZomgGuitarz1234]

The triaxis sounds kind of sterile in comparison to the ENGL E570, at least from the videos I've seen of it.

[squirttilithurts]

awesome rig!!

[joeboo22]

wow, BRUTAL guitar playing, sorry but you aren't very good - you shouldn't be playing a MESA, maybe a peavey instead

[serdar213]

Do you offer it for lead guitar for live playing ?

[thefrozenrope47]

this may be a dumb question but im new to the whole preamp & power amp thing so here it goes. If I bought the triaxis and fryette 2 two/fifty/two power amp would that be to much for my 100 watt cab to handle?

James Hetfield's gear: Roland JC-120 for clean sounds, Mesa/Boogie Triaxis & Diezel head for distortion.

Kirk Hammet's gear: Randall RM100KH heads for clean and distortion (his signature amp), and he also uses some dual rectifiers.

Depending on how many channels you need you might be as well just buying a mesa head of some sort. I know Metallica have traditionally used Mark series amps. I suggest going into your local guitar store and trying some stuff out to see what you REALLY want.

i thought it would be the easiest way to get the killer metallica sound. the jcm is the only amp i have.
