Yeah, I was a fender man for along time!
I have several sweet strats. I finally bought a LP standard. I love it. Through my Carvin head it sings for days. I'm not a big guy, but I'm stout so the weight doesn't bother me. As for the painted neck it gave me hang-ups at first but I just clean...
This is crazy,
I wanna know how you got the drums on 3 channels then how the hell you bounced then to one with the bass. (a 4-track can play and record but not on the same track) still ended up with 2 tracks left and were able to free them up for the vocals and still have tracks left?>...
Well, I have been using myh fingers now for 2 days...
I have worn a blister on my thrd finger after playing this really cool thing I wrote in E Dorian. It use a traditional blue-grass roll (P A I M A) and my third finger just couldn't hang. Huge blister... Well, Have you heard anything about...
Okie,
I found a Tascam DA20 mk II in a local pawn shop. It's a rackmount and it looks like new. Being a digital dummie I was wondering if this machine has multi-track capabilities and what should go with it. It looks like just a dat deck, but it's a Tascam so....
How much is it worth? They...
So this is sorta how it is..
If you want tube tone don't go with a distortion pedal (Solid state clipping through a tube pre-amp sounds like shit!) just crank it! For that over the edge sound use a Boss Super Overdrive and GE07 E.Q. pedal. (Ah-la Zakk Wylde).
If you want that solid state...
All these amps sound great!
( Believe me I'm an original Gear-Whore!!!)
I've owned most of them. Few favorites, though...
Peavey Renown 212: Mid 80's with 2ohm speakers 300 watts RMS, Parametric mids, about 2 tons! weight and the loudest amp I have ever played!! When I was in high school I owned...
Look, here is how it is,
The Mesa Boogie Line is great for recording or being miced through a P.A. but to play out with an amp (I'm guessing you like severe saturation from your user name !) you need a marshall, or a copy ( I play a 100watt Carvin head with EL34's , very rare and british...
Oh yeah,
I would run a separate cable to each plate or you will only have one set of inputs. If there is a XLR and 1/4" in each plate then you can jumper them together as follows: Wire the XLR as before then wire a jumper wire between pin 1 and ground on the 1/4" jack, then wire a jumper...
Skyline, 'Lo and Whasup.
Anyways, yes it only matters how you wire it. If you are going to have jack plates in the control room and in the studio ( I presume so ) then wire them all stereo. That way you haave the choice of using headphones or a guitar at any 1/4" jack. If you use headphones...
Cooperman,
The 'Mr. Crybaby Super' is avaible from musicians friend at $99. You don't have to wait though, most usic stores will match any price in musicians friend.
I think I will buy one too, I like the light idea and the range adjust sounds good.
(talked myself into buying something...
Thanks Tucci,
That sounds good but do you use natural (your own) nails? I can't have my fingernails long for various reasons so I was wondering about alternatives. I purchased thumb and three finger picks but they seem long. The make my rolls jumble up.
I saw this thing in guitar magazine...
Oh yeah, forgot.
Jim Dunlop does mak a Crybaby with an indicator light and they are great! It's the Crybaby super. It has adjustable sweep like the pros use for a wider range of wah or mow low or more highs ..etc. The Hendrix signature wah has lights too, but it also has fuzz built in...
God Yes!@
I'm a recovering wah-aholic! To me this is a matter of pure tone. The crababy is a hard-wired inline for real effect, that is when you move the pedal you are directly affecting you signal. The Morely uses photo-electric control ( It has a light sensor that measures the amount of...
Hello, Hello!
Anyways I would just like to share some guitar techniques here, and for Y'all to share yours if you like.
Detuning: Every one knows alot about this and all but, have you tried detuning acoustics? Like B E A D G B ? This B tuning is used by alot of hardcore musicians and...
O.K. I'm a guitar guy so I can't resist!
A hum-bucker has two coils (unlike a single coil) that are wound reverse to cancel out 60hz hum. Twice the magnets and wire also equals (almost) twice the output.
So, rule of thumb:
Heavy music (distortion) you need a humbucker preferably at the...
