Good guitar tech websites/forums

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have started to take a delight to gaining some knowledge on different effects, amps, strings and speakers to help myself get a better and more interesting sound.

Any good websites or forums where people talk about some guitar and accessory techs?

I really only use ultimate-guitar forums.  They are pretty interesting, I was just wondering if there is some other nice ones.

	Harmony Central has a number of nice forums for whatever instrument amd whatever playing level. www.harmony-central.com Hunt around in there and it's likely you'll find what you're looking for. The various guitar magazines also have forums associated with them. www.guitarplayer.com is good for gear. This site is good but it's under reconstruction: http://studio1031.info

	I tend to roam many guitar forums. Seymour Duncan User Group Forums, is great and owning a SD pickup is not necessary to enjoy the place, as there is an amp forum, guitar forum and an off topic too. Harmony Central can be good, but I just don't bother using my account because a lot of people post absolute rubbish there sometimes too, but don't let that deter you because there is some great discussion there too. Sevenstring.org is great, and you can talk about standard guitars, 7 strings, ERGs, bass guitars, amps, guitar tech etc, and some of the moderators there seriously know their stuff, so it's a good resource if you ask the right questions. I don't even own an Ibanez, but I use the Ibanez forum because some of the guys there are really friendly and some have even been doing guitar tech stuff for well over 10 years. It all depends what you need really , heck there is even a Line 6 forum, a Boss GT multi effect pedal forum, an Axe FX forum, an ESP guitar forum, Fender forum. Petrucciforums.com, can be really good and the general discussion is not even that Petrucci centric, and you can discuss gear there too, and it's fairly active too.
