They are both great machines capable of great things. Proper recording technique and performance are the biggest factors to a good sound. (Don't worry Reel, I would never dis your 38) :D :p :D :p

Seven deadly sins or not, I want one of those in my living room. Check out the teak. That is the Austin Powers of tape decks. :D

Ghost, you is one funny hoser. :p :D

Like everyone has said.......fine but just not too loud.

Wow. I thought I'd check in to see how you're making out. I gotta say, you is one careful shopper. :p :D :p :D Good luck with what ever you pick. ;)

Yo, Fellow Hoser, I've got two buddys that use them and they both get a great sound. The one guy regularly gigs with his and has no problem with volume. I have a Blues Deluxe and sometimes wish I had gone for the smaller and lighter (ah, getting old) Blues Junior. I rarely need that much juice...

I have lost track. :p

This is sure sounds like the intonation needs tweeking. Try the tuner/ear method and when you press down at the 12th fret, try to make it with even pressure that approximates your own. I also do what captain fuzz does and set my G just a tad low. Mybe half a tad. Also let the string ring as the...

You are right about the nut causing the crack. You're also right about the clamping. It will work as well as anything. I apologize for suggesting that you don't know your stuff. You obviously do. It was never my intention to discredit anything you have suggested. I'm sorry things got a little...

Average White Band early Prince (with the New Power Generation)

Well put ggun. Years ago I was having those very same chording problems until I changed to heavier strings and had my guitar refretted. Problen fixed. Almost. I still have to watch my own finger pressure, and like you said, especiially on the G string. If I play with a nice smooth grip and...

Bootsie Collins. :cool:

Yes, yes, yes to everything said so far. Some reasons I love working in analog are as physical as anything. I have heard the slowness of rewinding tape as being an issue with digiheads. Well I enjoy that pause in the action. It gives me a moment to reflect or gather my thoughts as I prepare for...

My guess is that it is probably the guitar (pickups) that are responsible for the sound. I'm not familiar with the tunes you mentioned but your description sounds like it might be Danelectro pickups. In any case the pickups are what really give a distinctive tone. An amp will do it as well but...

Perhaps you have misunderstood the meaning of my advice. I am not telling him how to do a pro job. I telling him something that will work. I am assuming that a new neck is not an option and that he just wants to save his guitar. That crack will never move with your clamping idea. It's a check...

Let's hijack this thread and post our "gigs that went horribly wrong stories". Here's a quickie. I used play in a Big Band and stages were always too small for the 20 of us and our music stands. At one outdoor gig our first trumpet fell of the stage backwardsand banged himself up pretty good. :p

I with gvarko. They rock and they are cheap.

This might be a good place to start. Get to now these guys and I guarantee you're tone will improve.

I would reccomend West Systems Epoxy. Wet out the cracks with raw catalysed resin using a syringe . Take all the hardware off that you can before you do this. After the runny catalysed resin has soaked in for about five minutes add some more catalysed resin with Colloidial Sillica (#405 I...
