Did they try to make a Bass VI out of it?

I purposely ruined my friend's DS-1 by doing the "Gated Synth-Fuzz w/ Auto-Swell" mod to it. I think it is a major improvement. https://vimeo.com/249222747

Which one and when? I know that brexit dicked over the pound right before I bought my sinners but they were only 200 some i think

The Ragnarok. Is that the one Misha uses? My friend loves Periphery to an unhealthy degree. It was around Black Friday last year, if I don't completely misremember.

Looking at their website he is listed on Juggernaut and Ragnarok. Also they start at roughly 50 pounds more than Sinners for the set and there's probably a bunch more options you could get that cost more like fancy covers and whatnot so I dunno. I just got black strat covers when I got sinners tbh and it is fine and acceptable

This sounds kind of close to this modded DS-1 I got as part of a craigslist deal. At the all-dimed settings you showed, it’s a whistling feedback machine unless the strings are totally muted, and at lower settings, it’s got that gated fuzz thing. Is his a known/common mod? I always wondered what was done to that thing.

I need some non stupid advise! I am moving to the other side of the country into an apartment soon, while also selling 95% of my gear. I am cutting down to just 1 electric and an acoustic. I need some kind of decent amp that works with headphones. Are there any that don't suck? Should I just get some modeler amp kinda thing? Pricepoint is whatever. I just want something that sounds semi-decent.

I always wondered what was done to that thing. JHS does a DS-1 mod that has a few different levels of hosed-up to it and all available to be switched in/out: https://www.jhspedals.com/products/discontinued-rare/boss-ds-1-synth-drive/ Apparently they have another model out now since we got ours that has yet another switch. I honestly don't know how much more gain they can add to the frickin thing after the original version of the mod. It already self-oscillates.

I only have the basic THR5 and it's as easy to get a good sound through my headphones as anything, it's got 5 presets available and a dumb number of models you can put to them with the software. Mine has a clean, two vaguely pushed tube sounds, a cranked marshall sound and a cranked mesa type sound and they're all nice.

OK you guys talked me into it. I am gonna order one of these off Reverb. Leaning towards the high gain one because I am a metal nerd at heart, but I will probably buy whatever is the better deal.

Just so you know the high gain X has a beautiful clean tone as well. The included delay/reverb plus the clean is something I can jam on for hours. It’s so good.

I tooled around with a THR in a store for a while and wasn't that impressed, although I don't think I was playing the high gain model. If you're just using headphones you could look at Positive Grid Bias if you've got an ios phone/tablet to run it, or an interface/DAW.

It's a traveler guitar. They're designed to take up as little space as possible.

It’s probably short scale and definitely has a very small and lightweight body.

Travelers are full scale. The selling point is "full scale guitar you can put in the overhead compartment of an airplane." Some of them are pretty weird, like they make a Strat where the body has been cut down to fit entirely under the pickguard (it's probably been posted in this very thread.)

How do they sound? Only "small" guitar I've ever played was one of those mini Martin's that have necks made of some crazy plywood type poo poo... The one I played actually sounded/played great though.

It's definitely an oddball since it's an "acoustic" but needs to be plugged in but it sounds nice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLznvop8mm4

When I was a TA in my guitar professor's class, this older lady was taking the Intro to Guitar Class with her daughter and they had the most bizarre guitars, they had a hinge on where the neck and the body met, so the neck would fold on top of the body. The strings went completely slack and they would just shove them into the sound hole. They had custom cases with them and they packed up nicely. I have no clue what they were or who made them.
