yes, shred is correct, hit harder.. the rest are correct as well. There are many ways to achieve the same thing, but whether does it sounds good to what the threadstarter watned, thats a totally different thing.
anyway, for hitting harder, will have to try out more, amps, effect and work on your dynamics, attack to know what shred was refering to...
most of the time when we play with distortion, we are playing in one dimension, whack, chugga, deeee deeeeee dilllllllll dooooooooooo all those nonsense, instead of finding all the nuauces of picking dynamics/attack, angle of pick to strings what so ever which might change the sound..
for destructive more distortion, blast the amp and make sure the speaker wont survive. Thats extreme distortion non of any distortion pedals can do

Yeap. And especially so with lower distortion such as... an overdrive.
That's a lost art pathein... a lost art... and a VERY tiring one!
I realised that the whole dynamics thing - if one doesn't consistently keep playing to maintain stamina & strength, its really tiring to keep at it.

haha, iam almost willing to think that you are trying to talk dirty about the dynamics, consistant playing to keep stamina and strength
guess dynamics thingy also depends on the music playing. If just chuggah or rock out type, it can be hard to do it, since its all high from the start.

Patheinnnnnnn.... wait u kena banned hor.
*shrugs* yeah, I think you're right. Maybe that's why some people recommend new guitarist to start on an acoustic first. The whole start-with-high-gain thing can be detrimental to a player's touch/feel.
Anyway, I'm tired of having to upkeep the stamina and strength.. going to go for hotter pickups. And it ain't nuthing to do with yer absurd idea!
