[edit] Cleanup

I tried to be thorough with this cleanup, removing redundant information and several bits that gave the article that fanpage air. In the near future, I'll try to give the same treatment to the other four members' articles. Help would be appreciated. - Cyrus XIII 19:27, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Amplification

This article currently lists the rest of Dir en grey as using VHT cabs and amps, which is inaccurate. Proper assessment of his equipment should be given instead of broad generalizations. ----Just fixed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.234.93.78 (talk) 03:41, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Instruments

I added an extensive list of Kaoru's guitars that I tried to base off lists of established artists, such as Kirk Hammett. I didn't get to add the amps and effects yet, and actually am semi-unfamiliar with these things. Anyone else's input would be appreciated, since I'm more familiar with the instruments and not the effects.

I think I've covered all of the electric guitars he's been seen with, but maybe have missed one or two from the band's indies days. I am aware that he uses several acoustics, primarily from Morris, that I haven't added yet, and some ethnic instruments he's used that I'm unfamiliar with. Once I do more research I'll add these. Also, I've seen him with both the Fender Jaguar and Gibson V, but am unsure of their specifics.

I'm no musician so, I cannot offer any assistance with this. Again, your contributions are much appreciated. - Cyrus XIII 23:20, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Question: The term 'see-thru' not 'see-through' is typically used for finishes, much like 'neck-thru' and 'set thru' are terms used when refering to the method of neck attachment on instruments. I had assumed that it would be proper to use the term 'see-thru' in the article since it is an industry standard. Knowing this, should the changes of 'through' be reverted back to 'thru'?

[edit] Ads

With all of the guitars and their descriptions it sounds like a giant ESP ad. Setsuka13 —Preceding comment was added at 02:14, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
