They didn't play here because the promoter for the Australia/NZ tour was grooming underage girls, and a bunch of bands (Sleep, Chelsea Wolfe, others...) rightfully cancelled their gigs.

The DiMarzio  TONE ZONE and air Norton pickups that Ibanez are using these days sound like poo poo. The old V7 and 8s they used to have were much nicer.

I’ve got one of these. The volume knob is in an annoying place, and it doesn’t have the Edge zero or pro bridge. Other than that it’s good.

It is filled with his own acrid poo poo. “Ah-HA!” He exclaims before hurling the whole steaming mass at the farthest wall. “Neon Green J45!!! Henry, you’ve done it again old boy!” He says before collapsing to the ground and pissing himself. If that were a <$400 Yamaha or Ibanez acoustic I'd buy that in a heartbeat but no way is that happening at Gibson pricing.

P-90s are single coils, JM Pickups are also single coil pickups but they're not P-90s... except for the Jazzmaster pickups which are Strat pickups in a JM casing.

I had DOD bass grunge until the switch on it stopped working... and I realised how lovely it sounded after we opened for some other band whose bass player also used one. It had a knob labelled "stupid". One of our guitarists used a Boss DF-1 feedback/distortion, and the other had a BUTT FACE DOD Grunge but moved to a Metal Zone. So we were pretty much the bad '90s pedal band

I don't know, I've lost count... like there's at least 4 delays, 5+ wahs, 3 choruses, multiple big muffs, some fuzzes and other things that I've built, a bunch of old big box EHX stuff, Japan and Taiwan Boss HM-2s and a tuner. When I do have time to play it's usually just Angus Young style: Guitar - cable - amp.

My usual sound is either clean or fuzz bass (either a big muff or HM2) into a clean solid state amp. or for guitar: direct or with a fuzz face/big muff/superfuzz into an already dirty tube amp with the EQ set to a mid hump. The fuzz (I really like fuzz, don't look at me like that) probably makes a using a TS pointless anyway

BonHair posted:Good parenting is normally being supportive of left-handedness, but I started out playing right handed, and switching to playing lefty after a few months of struggle instantly felt more normal to me and was a heck of a lot easier in that it didn't feel like having to constantly fight the instrument. Presumably this isn't a real complaint from a lefty having to play right-handed though, compared to the "plenty" of lefty complaints which from experience start and end at "we don't want poo poo either" and "some more colours would be nice", you rightist twat.

Is that playing LH, but strung upside down? Yeah that is weird, although Albert King, Dick Dale and Scott Reeder (bass player for The Obsessed/Kyuss/Other bands) play that way... Kurt Cobain, Jimi, Paul McCartney, Tony Iommi, and a bunch of others who all seem to play in doom bands play mirrored, Billy Corgan Whatever works for the player is cool and good.

Verizian posted:Avoid the Edge III. It works fine at first but one misstep and the knife edge pivots just crumple like butter and you can't just drop in a new trem without spending hundreds. Floating bridges are a pain in the arse to change strings on, and people will say that you have to change one string at a time. This is a lie: Here is the process I've done for Edge and Edge Pro bridges on the RGs I've had (It works for me, if you break your guitar somehow, it's not my fault) 1) If you put a small block of wood (or a pad of post-it notes works well) under the bridge so it can't fall into the body - You want something which is small enough to easily get out again, and thick enough so that the bridge sits flat, then you can remove all of the strings and not have to spend 3 hours setting everything up again. 2) Remove all of the strings, loosen off the clamps, and set the fine-tuners to halfway - the springs pull the bridge back against the block, you can clean all the 3) I usually feed the strings in so that the ball-ends are at the headstock because I'm lazy and can't be bothered cutting them off, and the balls stop the strings from slipping when you tune up (if you have locking tuners or vintage style with the slots instead of the holes this probably doesn't work and you'll have to cut the ends off anyway). 4) cut the strings at the bridge end about 1-1.5" from the saddles (This just happens to be in line with the edge of the cavity that the bridge sits in), then feed them into the bridge and clamp down. You want enough length that you can tune up to pitch, but because they're held on by the balls at the other end, you don't need more than a turn on the tuning posts. 5) Tune up - stretch the strings etc, once everything is in tune (i.e. balanced properly) the block under the bridge becomes loose, and you can take it out. 6) Check the tuning, fix the clamps at the nut, adjust tuning if necessary at the fine tuners and you're done. The preload on the bridge springs shouldn't need adjustment unless you change string gauge or are setting up for alternate tunings.

Dang It Bhabhi! posted:By the time he had like 3 different transistor stages with 3 more op-amp stages I was like "bro that is literally nothing like the original circuit." If his point was to demonstrate how small changes to a circuit's architecture can make substantial differences I think he could've stopped in the middle. I'd have taken "is a copy/clone of" to be more like how a Vox and a Crybaby wah are the same circuit (at least the old un-bufferred CBs), but with slightly different component values rather than adding extra stages and changing how the clipping is done.

Dang It Bhabhi! posted:I think they’re having a bit of fun with an led but if that was one of the 6L6s it would indicate that the tube is getting runaway current/overbiased and is extremely not happy. In that position it’s one of the preamp valves, and assuming they’re not having a laugh I’d have guessed that it’s lost vacuum from how cloudy it looks.

I’ve fixed several broken crybaby pedals over the years, nearly all of them had broken input jacks where someone had stepped on the plug and levered the jack off the board, reflowing the solder fixed them. now I have more of these drat things than guitars, but they all sound different sooooooo Chalupa Joe fucked around with this message at 20:26 on Jul 20, 2019 |
