I used the DOD Grunge pedal for a few years and thought that it did an okay job on distortion. If you are not into DOD stuff then check out the Metal Zone pedal. It has a 3 or 4 band eq along with all of the gain you could ever want. A guitarist in an old band of mine used to play it thought a Peavy...

Well if you use 2 different amp combinations you'll have to mic each cabinent and mix them properly to even out the volume levels when you switch rigs. You could also just switch the amp heads and use the same cabinent. Either way I'm pretty sure this is more of a "Pro" setup. Most local b...

Active pickups on a guitar are kind a sore spot for me. It's hard to record and it makes the guitar even louder and take up more frequency range. To everyone BUT the guitar player, this is a pain in the ass. It's better to cut EQ than boost it. But I won't pretend to be an AE and know what I'm talk...

Lean to play by ear. No wonder music sucks these days, nobody has to work to be able to play anymore so they have no way to translate their creativity into what they want to play.

If you are that poor, you are probably out of luck anyway. I think that if you want good results, you should take your guitar to a professional and have it set up properly. This should be done when you first buy a guitar anyway. Tell him to block off the trem and to set it up to the tuning that you'...
