    Fender Vs. Sqiuer SADDLES

    Since you're the one in possesion of the saddles in question, my suggestion would be just to try both of them and see which you prefer. Regarding cast metals, there are cast metals and then there are cast metals... they're not all the same. Different alloys resonate differently, and therefore...

    Tascam M-308B Story...

    Cory, I admire your dedication to the cause... I think this little Tascam looks like a well resolved unit for this size/format of mixer. It would make a cool little sidecar to use alongside the M-___. Hell, for 50 bucks this thing is worth it for all the Tascam spare parts alone, let alone the...

    look what I just bought :)

    Now that's radtastic!! :cool: It's basically a little Casiotone toy keyboard combined with a radio, cassette deck, and detachable speakers. Only the 80s could have given rise to such a sick, twisted, bastard-child! I love it! :D There's a little snippet on this keyboard on page 77 of The...

    Reel to reel 1/2"

    This might be a silly question, but is the tape taking up the entire 12.5" reel diameter? If not, I wonder if there's any chance of getting it to fit onto a 10.5" reel so you'll have more decks available that can play the things?

    Tascam M-___ Story...

    Wow, fantastic job! The contrast between the pics from page 1 and what the mixer looks like now is amazing. I tip my hat to you, Sir! This really is an amazing piece; swept high and low EQ plus two fully parametric mid-ranges, the extensive bussing, monitoring and metering options -you can tell...

    Disassembling an RE10

    Does anyone know how to do it? I have an RE10 here that's not putting out any audio and I need to get inside it to diagnose the problem. I've gotten as far as removing the front windshield and and the various layers of metal and mesh pieces that cover the diaphragm, but am unsure of how to get...

    Anybody tried this? DIY bottle neck slide.

    Cool link. I made a few bottle neck slides some years back using a similar method, albeit more of a traditional "old bluesman's" method: * Take a piece of cotton cord (3mm or so is a good thinkness) and soak it in kerosine. * Tie the cord tightly around the bottle neck where you want the break...

    AKG 451 E - issues

    Here are a couple of service manuals for the C451 which might help (also to help diagnose the problem once you get the thing open): http://www.akg.com/mediendatenbank2/psfile/datei/66/c451_452_E45b4627a7b1f0.pdf http://www.akg.com/mediendatenbank2/psfile/datei/97/C451B4055d1ffc4013.pdf The...

    ISK microphones...ANYONE?

    Yeah, not to mention the whole impressive-yet-awfully-vague run down of his past recording experience... "...done heeps of recording before and worked with many bands in some of the worlds best studio..." :rolleyes:

    Tascam 133

    Not entirely sure, but it sounds like there might be a belt slipping when you have the cassette in place. That is, the play belt as stretched and loose, but still has enough "grip" to turn the reel center 'wheels'. However, inserting the cassette adds resistance to these wheels which the belt is...

    Harmonica keys

    The nomenclature of the "second position" (commonly referred to as cross-harp) comes from it being the second position (relative to the harp's key) on the circle of fifths. Not the "second note along" on the scale or anything like that. The circle of fifths is basically a geometric/graphic...

    Harmonica keys

    No, actually Nightfire was right before... the cross-harp key for a D harmonica is A. I think you got that backwards as the cross-harp key for a G harmonica is D (not the other way around). The other keys are all correct (ie: to play in E, use an A harp; to play in D, use a G harp; to play in...
