Good read! ? Thanked.
I always thought that most of this was basic, guitar-playing common sense? ?

Boost the mids, drop the gain. Guitar 101 ?

Should be. But go to any local metal show, even some of the heavier rock and punk, at your local venue and you'll see it's not. Brootalz101 seems to be "scoop the hell out of the mids, max the gain, and just play white noise". Fortunately I have seen metal bands lately where I could actually hear the notes. So it's not everyone.

Thanks man! Gonna read soon. ?

...ok, I wrote a moerse rant and decided not to post it. YEs, Mids, Mids, Mids! I just wish my fellow guitarist in my band would understand this and throw his Metal-Zone out a car window.
