    Anyone tried putting their kick to the side?

    That drummer in the pic looks like he's just trying to take up more space.

    Fender or Gibson?

    Clapner said: You can make a Strat sound like a Les Paul, but you can't make a Les Paul sound like a Strat.

    Vintage???

    I have actually gotten a few killer deals at Music Go Round, believe it or not. I bought a couple used things from sam ash and got a good deal, too.

    Delay stomp box

    Digital delays are fine for what i need a delay for. I used to put it after the fuzztone, but now I get what little grit I use from my amp and the delay sounds great slightly distorted. but, if you want something to brag about and put in your sig, then get an analog. Seriously. Why would you...

    Vintage???

    craigslist is like pawnshops now. I never see any good deals. If they have access to the internet for craigslist, they can search ebay and get some stupid idea of what their esteban should be priced at.

    Which is a bigger piece of junk?

    I did plug it in last night. It seems to have the same sounds that I remember from the RX5. I couldn't find the "Hey!" and "Uhhh!" sounds, but I'm sure they're in there somewhere. It also may have the capability of putting a pad or pads on a different midi channel, which would be kind of cool.

    Which is a bigger piece of junk?

    I decided to stick on the shelf and the next time I feel like listing to 250 drum sounds, I'll plug it in. I was hoping that it had a bunch of percussion sounds like shakers and cowbells and stuff like the old RX 5.

    Which is a bigger piece of junk?

    I am cleaning out my "office" and unearthed an Alesis DM5 and a Yamaha TMX. I have recorded a little with the DM5 and I kind of like the big, fake bass drum sounds. I have never plugged in the Yamaha. If I try it out, my wife, who's upstairs will know I am no longer cleaning. Should I just...

    more important: guitar or amp?

    I can see your perspective because you are talking about playing a gig or trying to sound decent over a longer period of time. But I think that some people seek out the quirkiness of a shitty sounding amp to capture some mood or something. I think of the solo in space oddity as being some of...

    Bass Purchase issues...

    A couple of the bass players I was working with are also guitarists and encouraged me to pick up a bass rig for sub work. You can make some money for sure. I wanted a squier jazz because I wanted to be able to screw fender parts on it and geek out. I wanted it to be roughly OEM compatible...

    How important are scales and theory in your guitar playing?

    yes and yes. All practice gives me is stamina. I have seen alot of guys who love to play and practice alot, but you can still tell they lack talent. Maybe you can be a music teacher or something. teachers and students are the ones that think that practice can make up for a lack of natural...

    How important are scales and theory in your guitar playing?

    I don't believe this for one second. Thread: How important are scales and theory in your guitar playing? You don't have to touch a guitar to learn theory or scales, really.

    you can't play guitar and not have rhythm. Sax, maybe. Not guitar.

    10 or 20 degrees too cold for guitars, amps and pedals?

    I wouldn't want to play a cold guitar anyway.

    How important are scales and theory in your guitar playing?

    I know a lot of theory. You can't really play with other people without speaking the language. I don't mean your 3 garage bands. I mean being able to take sit-in gigs or musicals or weddings and other money making ventures. It is too hard to draw pictures and diagrams so that you'll remember...
