I play metal (normally in drop C). Is this thing cruchy enough to pull it off?

I love this little guy but more of an overdrive sound with just the amp. It will take pedals nicely so you could push it into more of a metal sound. Here is a great review that will show you some sounds (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzDohmkXeJs)

I would not recommend this one for that level of playing. My son is using it as a beginner in his middle school. I think it's a fair instrument for beginner level learning. I'm not a musician though. The piece is very light and easily damaged.

For a beginner yes, I believe it is for it has the correct weight and after learning a few chords it plays very well. I just like it for just being able to pick it up and play. When you improve graduate to the next.

I play in a string band and it handles my fiddle (high end) and our stand up bass (low end) just fine. Not sure how that low B will be. It's a solid tuner. Our guitar players have Boss tuners and they are switching to the Korg.

It's so cheap because this attachment is mainly intended for airsoft use. For the price, hell I'd just buy one and test it out. If it works then you just got yourself quite the steal, if not, then no harm no foul. Personally, this is a very solid sight. It's all metal and has survived several drops on my AR replica. I believe it will hold up.

No you will not. You will have to remove a piece of metal under the control arm so it will drop down. I used an air grinder to knock the metal off. Not a big deal.

I cant really tell,Its to close to metal to test with a magnet.I can tell you this,it works and sounds great. It was a perfect fit for my epi les paul special II. You would be hard pressed to beat this saddle at this price. I haven't had a problem with it and I have had it better than a year.

Absolutely. I'd recommend setting your amp on a nice clean tone, then you can let'er rip.

NO Defintly not. It's the average weight of any guitar foot pedal. BTW, works great for the money.

It's been chromed so any chipping of this protection will cause it to start rusting. Although I wouldn't say it's a "low quality metal" I don't think this would cause an issue unless it started happening on the gears and even then given its industrial feel, I doubt this would compromise your can opening needs.

That is exactly the game I use it for and it's worked well. Just don't jam it around and you should be fine

Not a problem. I took mine to a local luthier for set up and he was impressed with the quality.

Did it work? I've read some pickups arent "loud" enough for Rocksmith - looking for one myself!

Yeah it is. Or was, rather. Let me tell you, the design is a little sub-par. The head broke off in a matter of months. A combination of some rough-handling (not on my part, to be fair) and lack of proper support. You get what you pay for, certainly. It's a really good guitar, for sure. Just be a little extra careful with it.

Unfortunately I got it as a father's day gift for my dad,and we haven't really played much rock or heavy metal through it,but it works well with Reggae..It might just be an experimental experience at first,until you figure out the right settings for it.I know I wasn't able to offer much help,but I hope that you will be able to find the right settings for it.

This amp sounds great but for heavier stuff (like Metallica) you'll want to get a distortion pedal. Most of the stuff I play is rock, blues, and some country - this amp is perfect for what I use it for. The built in effects are pretty ok but if you want reverb and, say, chorus then you're outta luck since you can only use one at a time. Mostly just play it with some overdrive and reverb. For a little practice amp this thing screams. Crank up the gain and the volume and you're sure to piss off your neighbors. If you need it louder for a gig, stick a mic in front of it and plug it in to the PA.

Hello R. Archer...in answer to your 2 questions, the answer to both is YES...it is a fantastic item...small enough to fit in your shirt pocket and big enough to do a professional job...I have been playing the guitar for 45 years...bought 2 of them to give to beginners...you will love it also.
