I'm not saying the article's wrong, I too have seen approximately a billion of those delay units on pedalboards at shows, I mostly posted it for how pitchforky it is.

Did they really just write that article so they could say the names of bands they like to jack off to?

The fun thing is that 40 watts of guitar tube amp will defeat 5000 watts of vocal PA easily.


Speaking of that, what's some good guitarist excuses you've heard when they get told to turn down? I've heard:

- "It's not that loud, actually"
- "It can't go any quieter"
- "Everyone said they couldn't hear me last time, so I'm going louder"
- "gently caress off"
- "Yeah it's ok, I just might as well not play then" (turns everything to 0.5 and sulks)
- "I can barely hear it"
- "yeah sure thing, I'll turn down" (moves presence knob from 6 to 5.5)

REAL guitarists do not use those string winder things. REAL players know how to string a guitar so you don't have to wind it for half an hour :colbert:

(yes I realise that if you're a REAL guitarist, you should have a little fella to change strings for you)

I had no idea Fender made a Les Paul ripoff, but why would they make it in 1984 when absolutely noone was playing em? Even ZZ Top were using Explorers and whatnot

Everything's hosed up about it, the more you look. Despite it looking like Sizzler lunch special, why are the string trees all screwy? Why does the neck look like it's been set on fire? Wouldn't anything be better as a bridge than a tiny block of softwood?
