It's a 5150, so it's automatically metal/hardcore related.

Traded my Mesa 2x12 cab for the white 4x12. Sold the Mark V head and bought an EVH 5150, a new switcher, and a DigiTech whammy. I'm also trying to sell an Alex Wade (Whitechapel) signature 7-string as well. The guitar is a custom Carvin TL60. I lurvvvv et.

HOW DID I NOT SEE THIS POST BEFORE

Much questions. 

 

1) How do you like the 5150, and how does it compare to the Mark V?

 

2) How's the Carvin?  I'm thinking of ordering one some time considering how inexpensive they are and how customize-able they are.  I think I was looking into the SCB6, but regardless I'd probably get a Tele-shaped guitar.

Anyway how do the pickpus sound?  I'd probably swap them out if I got one but I've heard they're a bit small and some modding needs to be done. 

 

Also, white guitar and amp, you sir have great taste.

I feel like showing off and posting pics of all my skramz albums.

 

Also, seeing La Dispute and Pianos Become the Teeth tonight! And Deafheaven tomorrow, possibly.

Keep rubbin it in while we get country music festivals coming over to our area, oh well at least i got to see rise against last year which was awesome still upset over missing out on in flames when they came.

I'm at the show now, been here for an hour and a half and it hasn't started yet. La Dispute also has the worst fans ever.

Everyone knows that, their fanbase is full of tumblr girls and other annoying idiots

I loved the Mark V and IV, but I needed the money, and having a $2000 head that does a little bit more than I need it to was starting to hurt my wallet lol. If you're looking for versatility over a one-trick pony, and you have the cash, I'd go for a Mark V. The EVH 5150 is less than half the price ($800) and is a lot beefier and gainier than the Mark V, and it does better in an analog mix than my Mark V. The thing sounds like an overly-angry mad beast. It's rad.

 

The Carvin.... is a dream, dude. The neck is smooth as butter, and the thing is SOLID. It's a bit heavier than I'm used to, but it feels indestructible, and Carvin is really good with the options. The only thing is, the volume knob was damaged in transit, but they replaced it for free. I'm gonna slap some duncans in it, because the stock pickups are nice, but they're not my thing. I need something bassier and more percussive. I also have a thing for tele-bodies :3

I love the get-up kids so much

Excellent.   There's too many guitars I want right now.  Deciding right now between a Carvin, an ESP Eclipse (if I can find a used one within my budget), and this

Guys the new La Dipute album is really good

Both my ex and gf were talking bout how awesome this album is. Still have yet to listen to it but I might pretty soon and might even like it since a lot of naysayers keep chugging how good it is.

 

But anyway, the new Animals As Leader album- The Joy Of Motion is pretty sweet.

Shall i remind you of the fact that youre the only djent fan in this thread

I'm a casual fan of Periphery.  I wouldn't really call that being a djent fan. 

 

Most of the stuff that's been posted has been post-hardcore and noise rock.  I'm more of a metal guy. 

 

Also you just posted metalcore.  Come on.
