HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

I took these 2 pictures about 20 minutes ago, and did a few quick touch ups in photoshop, as well as resized them. i finally figured out how the super bloom effect works, and took 4 shots with them, these are the only 2 that i liked, and were the least sloppy. comment please!

Way, way too blurry. I don't like how little you can see in the body shot either.

i didn't use sports mode, it messes up the bloom effect as far as i know, its my first time using that camera.

Those shots look pretty nice

Nice man, I wish I had a nice camera to take a couple of shots of my Ibanez JS1000.


These were taken with a s**tty camera phone.

....sorry I sorta hijacked your thread, just wanted to show you mine

lol. nice guitar! i love the floyd rose on it, but i think your strings are a bit to short, cos its being pulled up, thats not a good thing
next time you replace your strings, put a block of wood under the bridge to keep it leveled, then take out the little blocks that keep the string in the bridge, and replace the strings like that, and make sure you cut the ends of the strings at the head of the guitar to a good enough length that wont bend the bridge down (loose) or up (tight). you want to keep it just level.

my friend has a washburn with a Floyd rose on it as well, and i had to figure a way to replace his strings all by myself... took me a while to figure out how to do it.

Yeah replacing strings is a real pain. You have to replace them one at a time, as in un-string it, restring it, tune it, THEN you can start on another string, and so on...

BTW those are very nice shots of that guitar. Even the blurriness is nice looking.

thanks
hey get on aim, i just added you to my buddy list.

Oh man, thank god you don't have a gibson, since they're the fenders of music.

Not to mention having a Fender itself!

lol. good thing i only go for the metal looking guitars (as in genre of music)
original photo of the head stock that i took before i edited in photoshop:

Fill me in. What's a metal looking guitar?

The pictures are to blurry.

a metal looking guitar is a guitar that is made for playing metal music (ie: pickups, the wood the fret board is made with, and the bridge all decide on what type of music is meant for that guitar.)

plus i go for the sickest style, something that looks like devil horns, or has lots of pointy edges, like the warlock, a warlock is a low grade metal guitar made by B.C. Rich.

Why is your guitar so dirty?

Edit: Also, I play a ton of metal, and I use a Fender Strat. They work just peachy for metal.

Same. And I have a little help from this...

You should record yourself sometime. So far I only know of one really good metal guitarist here, and that's Trep. I don't know what I would be considered, but I would like to hear you as well.

im working on learning the rest of Day in Black by Job for a cowboy. i learned it by ear yesterday and i am only missing about 10 notes in the entire song before it is perfect, ill record me playing it tomorrow (hopefully).

i can also play parts of mourning palace by dimmu borgir, and every song by avenged sevenfold from there Waken the fallen album, including solos. those are the only songs i work on every day after school. i can play about 530 or so other songs from many different genres. i've been playing for 5 years.

Hey, nice shots. I have two Ibanez guitars, one is an Iceman, the other...I don't really know, my brothers customized it a lot and they gave it to me. I guess Ibanez's are pretty common on this forum. And I play metal, too.

Pictures seem pretty grainy what kind of camera did you use?

Make: OLYMPUS IMAGING CORP.
Model: SP500UZ

im not too fond of camera models and all that stuff, just how to use them.

I dont know. I have a off-brand wanna be straocaster thing I got 4 years ago that was my starter electric guitar. I run it in a volume pedal, and whammy wah, and my favorite distortion pedal: the weapon (digitech) into 2 small studio amps. Its a small setup and my guitar is shitty, but it gets the job done. Also, Xiion, how much do you like your RG120 and how would you describe it to another metal guitar, quality wise? Also, how good is the tremolo?
