I love all the crazy poo poo Fender pumped out to catch the surf-rock wave (no pun intended) back in the 1960's. I  my Jazzmaster.

Mugendai posted:Yeah I really love that Cyclone II because you can get some really awesome surf sounds out of it like a jaguar, but can also turn on and off the pickups in different configurations to get to get really good tones for heavier stuff. I only regret trading in my Cyclone for my first Jazz Bass because said bass got stolen.

Dr.Mosh posted:I just ordered the 8 string, but it will only be deliverable in June I've heard Platypus say the same thing (he settled on a Schecter C7 Hellraiser). I really like Stephen Carpenter's tone, but its a crapshoot if I'll get to play any instrument with either 81-7s or 707s in it since all music stores within 50 miles of me sell 90% Fender branded stuff.

Placebo Messiah posted:ok I seem to have confused rms with something sort of related. Depends on how the term "rectified output" is being used. In traditional terms using a sine wave for example, a positively rectified output would be the resultant output when the negative portion of the sine wave is clipped off and negatively rectified would be the inverse. Really, rectified is a wave shape rather than a unit since you can measure the peak voltage or the RMS voltage of a rectified signal.

Hay doods, look what I got yesterday! New pickups, pickguard, graphite nut, graphite string trees, and miscellaneous electronics. Bridge - GFS Power Rails Middle - GFS Alnico Boutique R/W Neck - GFS Crunchy PAT I also got in the Wasabi Overdrive deal that went on last month. With the Crunchy PAT, its a very smooth, bluesy overdrive, with the Alnico Boutique, I get a very Cars-era Ric Ocasek tone, and with the Power Rails, it loving screams. I've always loved this guitar, so the next addition to it will be a new neck later down the road.

qball posted:At what point in the process of upgrading a Strat does it cease to be the same guitar? Swapping out the neck would be a major change almost akin to a new guitar. I believe that once you change the body, its a completely different guitar. Necks are an appendage that can break, warp, etc..., so replacing those aren't a big deal to me. But once the body is replaced, the soul is replaced too.

ColonelJohnMatrix posted:My new Fender Powerhouse Strat in Metallic Caramel. This is one of the hottest looking strats I've ever seen. It's a MiM, but comes with noiseless active pickups, and a 12db boost. With that boost it's got the most balls I've ever heard in a strat with singles. Could you take a picture of the back? I'm curious to see where the battery compartment is.

Agreed posted:I don't really go out for the whole "Vine of Life" inlay nonsense, would prefer something a bit less gaudy, and overall the thing is more "bling" than any other guitar I've owned or own, but the playability and sound are absolutely fantastic, literally better than any guitar I've ever played (close second being an Ibanez Joe Satriani Signature guitar in red).

ZombiePeanut posted:The little big muff is pretty much the perfect fuzz distortion. The tone knob changes how it sounds a ton. Also, the normal big muff pi is loving massive for no apparent reason. It's kind of funny. Component material aside, a lot of people argue that point-to-point or through-hole PCB fabrication techniques sound better (  ) than surface-mount PCB fabrication which I'm assuming the Little Big Muff uses.The issue isn't how the thing is laid out or the layout technique per se, but what the components (resistors, capacitors, etc...) are made of and that surly music store repair techs hate fixing surface-mount equipment so they'll say that point-to-point and the like sound better mostly, if only, because they're easier to fix.
