Best BKP for thrash

^^now you mention it, I think he does. Not that it really matters, playing through all those mesas they could be using teles and you wouldn't know the difference.

Oh, and dave, next time you're on ug (since you're a mod and won't get banned for it), would you mind informing dreadnought that he's a hypocritical, power tripping little bitch for me please? I'd appreciate it if you could also mention that he flames more than chung (and he's more of a dick than either of us), and so consistency demands that he get banned himself. It's a shame, really. I mean, you expect most of the most to be assholes (actually just cas), but dreadnought actually used to be worth talking to. Now he's so far up his own arse he doesn't actually do anything other than find excuses to warn, flame and ban anyone he doesn't like. It's weird that something as simple as being modded could do that to someone. I really need to stop going on UG while I'm banned... Anyway, rant over. Warpigs, eh?

 :lol:

I can't really get in a fight with the other mods, especially since it's not really anything to do with me... :(

But i know what you mean- i find a lot of the time in the Secret mod forum that I'm one of the few guys who acts the same as i did before i got modded (power freak and mascot are also still the same)- a lot of the guys are "ban first, ask questions later".

what'd you get banned for anyway? (shoot me a pm, so as not to clutter up the BKP boards and this topic anymore! :D

er..... megadeth use the duncan jb, and pantera/dime used a bill lawrence (or more recently, dimebucker...)


ah, well Im pretty sure they used 81's at some point, maybe earlier on.  my bad, and my mistake with pantera, I ment Slayer (im pretty sure Kerry King uses 81's)

Anyway the MM will do all of this

MMM
Im sorry to be persistant...but I'm on a mission to build the most badass guitar of all time.

...glad to hear there are more thrash-heads out there!  Favourites are Overkill, and I love Testament, Anthrax, early Megadeth and Death Angel too.  :)

Muttley



Nice one Muttley... Death Angel's "The Ultra-Violence" is a killer song!  One recommendation though... check out an album called "Extraction From Mortality" by a CHRISTIAN thrash group (yes, Christian as in Jesus!).  Its got some classic riffs.  quite hard to find though, as its out of print.  Ebay or Amazon would be your best bet...

You don't mean www.ultimate-guitar.com do you?  That website steals tabs from other websites!  :x

UG seems to be the only site WITH a good selection of tabs! Who cares if they "advertize" other sites tabs, at least you get what you want  :D

"Advertise"?!  I spent a long time tabbing out an Impellitteri song and submitted it to www.powertabs.net .  When that website temporarily stopped running, ultimate-guitar.com copied the COMPLETE tab database without permission.  Now my tabbed song is on the UG website without any mention of or credit to me for tabbing it out.  I don't object to my tabs being made available, after all, thats why I tabbed them out in the first place.  But I do object to them being used without giving me the credit for the hours I put in.

And UG was a bad website even before it copied all the powertab files... there are THOUSANDS of badly written TEXT tab files.  IMO tab programmes are far superior, and www.powertabs.net was by far the best for powertabs (before it temporarily shut down) and www.mysongbook.com was the best for GuitarPro files.  Between these two websites, I found no need to ever visit U-G.com.

Just to chip in late: I leap for my miracle men (two guitars with them) for thrash over my warpig. The pig sounds bigger, middier and more organic, great for thrash but better for vrey much heavier modern/death metal.

The MMs have a super-tight bass, smooth mid and sharp-but-never-harsh treble that make it THE best thrash pickup I've ever heard.

To be fair, they're pretty much the only site that hosts text tabs anyway. If they hadn't copied tabs from a lot of other sites they would have just been lost. I agree powertab and guitarpro are better than text, but not everyone has them, do they?

Yeah, I suppose you're right... although its nice to be credited for the work you do, especially when its a free service, like tabbing out songs.  The powertabs.net website claims it will be up and running again soon, so the tabs wouldn't have been lost forever, just temporarily unavailable.  I guess increased access to tabs can't be a bad thing. But I'd highly recommend powertab to anyone who hasn't got it... it is completely free to download and use!  :D
