Picked up this double adjustment truss rod 22fret Warmoth neck for way too cheap. Stainless frets and mini sperzels. Tossed it on the Jazzmaster and put my VM up for sale.     I'm in love

I played in a goth band for a while that had 3 Roland KC-500s for just the keyboards, my SVT w/ a 2x12 was the lightest piece of gear. My thighs were mighty that summer.

Well, my mixing workflow just got a whole lot easier. NOS MCU for $100, works great, sat in a box in a guy's closet after he couldn't figure out how to work it and never touched again    And all the poo poo to hook it up

Timefactor I've owned a shittonne of delays but never one of the high end does everything ones and I got a deal on this one because of a frankly insignificant chip in the casing. In terms of sound quality it is very nice indeed, it has nice clean hi fi quality to the digital repeats that carries over to every mode. To be totally honest though I'm not gonna saw the analog models are head and shoulders above some cheaper pedals I've tried, it's replacing an re20 and vox delaylab which had great tape and DMM sounds. Self oscillation is frankly way worse than the RE20. Where it knocks it out the park though is versatility, any dumb feature you want is there, albeit inside is labyrinthine submenu. You can have a universal clock for tap tempo which is one of my big bugbears with some delays. I'm particularly enjoying the fact that having two separate delaylines means you can do creative stuff with it. massive spider fucked around with this message at 10:17 on May 3, 2015 |

It's some anti-whatever coating. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/accessories/dr-strings-bkb-50-black-beauty-heavy-bass-strings#productDetail I like them alright, but they're a little bright for my taste. I'll probably try something different next change.

iostream.h posted:Bass player spotted. Guilty as charged. I see 8's all the time, and of course the average 8x10 has 4 ohms when hooked up in single-amp mode or whatever they call it (most can be split so you can run it as two 8-ohm cabs), but no 16s.

Dr. Faustus posted:I knew a guy who was a very good guitarist, in a pretty decent all-original band. The angriest I've ever seen him was the night after the practice when he was warming up and the lead singer walked over to his amp and rolled the volume off. No please or thank you, he just helped himself. Guy wanted to choke him out for it. Was it in this thread where I ranted about the sound guy who did this to me a few months back? I thought I had blown a speaker. Again.

what's up with the masking tape? As for the bar you just gotta push it in. I've sometimes had to put Jaguars and Jazzmasters on the floor and STEP (!!!) on bars to get them to push the teeth of the collet apart and grab onto them.

Also, I am going to order: http://www.masterybridge.com/offset-bridge/ At some point soon so I'll keep you posted on that, as it is I got a bridge that reduces buzz already and it works, but I want to nerd out some more.

Ahh cool thanks, I was hoping a recommendation would appear, they look so good but you know how musical instruments and snake oil can be bed fellows! Did you bother with the trem unit? I don't have any complaints but am interested.

For the trem unit I had an AVRI Jag that was way too tight, I took it out and "gently* loosened the tabs on the collet with a phillips head screwdriver.

No worries, I've got a new American one for mine and it's great, just interested in case there's a big wow factor, I'll stick with what I have there.

the mastery bridge looks neat, but i dont think its designed for use with a wound g string. however playing nice heavy strings i think the bridge cover i ordered should do the trick, the strings are pretty stable except when muting the mastery vibratos cool and its funny that they removed the locking mechanism which always seemed like just another pita to get to during setup i didnt even bother taking the vibrato off last night, i think thatll help with the arm issues
