Rough Estimates
I Have A Warlock with Duncan Invaders and Pearly Gates and was thinking about trading it in along with my digitech effects pedal (120$ model) and wanted to know how much i could probably get for it.

Help, i'm clueless about tubes! haha
So it's time to change the tubes in the 50watt beast of mine. I bought the amp preowned so I'm assuming the tubes have been changed before (but I guess I shouldn't assume anything). Anyways, I've never changed them. Do I need to have somebody do it or are they pretty much plug-and-play? I know the preamp tubes are Mesa 6L6's. I've heard good things about EL34's but I'm not sure? I do know my amp has the nifty bias switch though. Basically when it comes do it, I'm clueless. What do I buy? Where do I buy them? How much are we talkin'? Andddd can I put'em in myself?

I think I need a Flying V
I'm craving the midrange honk that a Strat style guitar ain't giving me. I tried a Gibson Flying V yesterday and it was surprisingly comfortable to play while sitting down. The only thing that'll take getting used to is the glossy neck. What options do I have besides Gibson? If I was rich I'd get a custom V with a maple Explorer neck finished like Zakk Wylde's Les Paul neck. I must get Michael Denner's lead tone from Mercyful Fate's quot;Don't Break the Oathquot; cd. God that's the greatest sound ever. *plays opening solo to A Dangerous Meeting*

Good, Free, Minimalistic recording software?
I've got a rather slow computer, and I don't really have any need for huge programs with tons of crap like Cool Edit or Pro Tools or whatnot, but I'd still like to be able to record my music. Does anyone know of a free recording program that's free of adware/spyware which will essentially just let me chronicle my live jams and have a few seperate tracks to mess with?

Tone Help! I'm Going Crazy!!!!
hi, below is the gear that I've got, and the pickups have just recently been put in (2 days ago) but i can't get rid of the muddy sound when the bridge pickup is being played with distortion. I've tried messing with the eq on my amp, changing strings to a lighter gauge, pretty much everything.

Just broght home a Tele
Well i made the plunge and bought a used MIM tele standard... It was cheap and it had some nice upgrades!!!! It has a new Gotoh vintage tele 3 barrel bridge and a white Pearloid pickguard added to it.... Very cool!!! It has some nice tones for a cheap tele!!!! Roll the tone back it sounds like it has a P90 in it...... It has the Tele twang... Much nicer of a guitar then i expected... I bought it mostly because i want to make a router template of a tele body so i can make early 80's Shecter Townshend style copies... So i wanted the tele body to copy and the headstock and heal shape...
