You say you want a revolution

My guitar (and most guitars for that matter) sound like garden hoses during solos. How can I make it sound like a fire hose?

Like, when the solo comes in, I just want to BLAST with like feedback and noise and power. Like Albert Ayler on the saxophone.

What effects can I get so that my guitar will just BLAST sound? Thank you.

How about a sound like on "Blue Orchid" by the White Stripes? That's a POG plus a Big Muff.

One of my relatives passed away and I've been offered his bass guitar. I can play alright, but I'm right handed, and it's a lefty model. Is it worth my time to restring it and play it like a right handed bass? I usually don't play with a pick, so I don't think which side the pickguard is on would matter..and I know the volume/tone knobs would be on the bottom a little further away. Is there something else I'm missing? Would the body be digging into my ribs or anything? I haven't seen the bass guitar in a while, but I can assume based on his income that he had a pretty high end one.

Don't bother, it'd be more trouble than it's worth. You'd have to change the nut, readjust the bridge, install a new strap button... which might reduce potential resale value, plus it'd look goofy to play.
