I'm having a little problem here i have a ESP LTD M-50 guitar which i use for playing solos but i can't get the right sound out from it.

Like when i take Metallica as Example the solo voice is much better than it comes out from my amp.

I tried everything, switched pickups and f'ked with the Equalisation on the amp, but without success:(


So here comes the question: Is the good solo sound coming out from good guitar or it's because of my amp. Or i should use my effects pre-amp to get better sound?

Thank you

try a diff amp/guitar combo to see if that alters the sounds.

also, what state are your leads in? split insulation, dirty contacts will cause impedence. clean the contacts inside the amp with a cotton bud dipped in cola, and coil your leads carefully after use, dont just shove them in a bag

A good sound is the outcome of the right amp settings, the right amp, the right guitar, the strings, the tuning and, of course, your skill.

Make sure you change your strings once in a while, also, what amp do you have ? Is your guitar in tune ? What are your amp settings ?

I had a similar problem with my first guitar, It turned out to be the strings, which just needed changing. It still wasn't perfecvt however, and so I got a Fender Mustang, Now it plays so much better.

So it might be your strings or your guitar, or maybe a bit of both.

As this dude said. Sometimes, strings are needed to be changed. There's a big variety of them (materials they're made etc etc).

Strings are about 2 weeks old. Size is 11-48

Pickups are Original which came with the Guitar...

Amp settings are: Treble is abit more than Middle, Mid is turned higher about a Quarter and Bass is abit more than quarter.

Also depends on the Style i'm playing so my equalization varies...
