I'm debating on whether or not to see them this Friday (tomorrow). Last time I saw them at the same venue the sound check was really off and they sounded terrible. But watching Skolnick play is awesome.

I have a Schecter 7-string, would consider getting rid of it but I'd need a good sixer in return. Only electric six string I got anymore is an old Austin Strat that was the second guitar I ever bought about 6 years ago :lol:

I use it through my Vox semi-tube amp with a Schecter 7 string. It is OK but only when played really loudly. When it's quiet it sounds like shit or has little to no difference.

The way I usually think of it, everytime the snare is hit by drums it is the end of the measure, does that mean if I'm counting I start over every snare? There are no rules in place stating that you have to hit the snare at any specific count, so that's where I think you're confusing everyone. Yeah...
