i was messing around with my friend's ibanez s custom at church tonight with his boss multi(never really tried all those floyd rose tricks and stuff, it was fun).
what kind of effects do metal/speed metal artists use or is it more of the amp and pickups? i always thought it was distortions, but the sound just wasn't right when i tried those settings on the boss(which i'm guessing is supposed to be sorta DS-1 based). i tried it on the metal settings(which i'm guessing is similar to MZ/MT) based which of course sounded a lot better. what is usually used when playing that kind of music? i'm just trying to vary my styles, i'm sure a lot of people could benefit from learning how to shred like a speed metal player.
