I got sent a brochure thing on that the other day from Venue Music in Sydney, Peter. I threw it away because I wan't particularly interested but from what I remember it retailed at AU$795 - which puts in the same ballpark as the Rode NT2 in terms of price and by the looks of it features too. I...

Ooo... ellicit microphone's... this sounds like fun I can see it on the news now... "Customs seized today off the North West coast of Australia what they though was another boat load of refugees from the middle east... instead they found an American citizen, one David Fiedler, attempting to...

Thanks guys. I'd say I screwed up the volume pot with the soldering iron because it worked fine before I started messing around with it. I'll get a new one. I've replaced it a few times before so that's not a problem. The earth wire from the bridge to the case of the volume pot is good... I...

It's too long a story to explain but yesterday I re-wired my guitar. 2 humbuckers, 3 way selector and 1 volume pot. Now I have a nasty hum when I play thru my amp (only noticeable on the high gain channel) ... the hum disappears when I touch a string or the bridge... I'm assuming it's a...

http://www.bidland.com/@/fullconceptauction/categories/pedals_effects/118190 If you wanna try and get a TLM 103 or two really cheap - there's only two hours left though when I posted this and they are at $200... just thought someone might be able to pick up a bargain. They belong to the band...

I think the original purveyors of all that is 7-string guitars Ibanez have a 7 string acoustic model... I read a review of it in a a guitar mag probably 2 years or so ago... from memory the reviewer thought it was pretty cool. I actually would have thought it would be quite popular with weird...

No we are blessed with "Tandy" and "Dick Smith's" - just as a funny side point, Dick Smith is an Australia entrepeneur (sp???). We have a brand of matches called "Redheads" - so Dick Smith brought out his own brand of matches and called them "Dickheads"! You can go down to your local store here...

IMHO, burning to CD is by far the most cost effective and practical option. If you are looking at getting lots of copies professionally made however, you first need to check what formats whoever you take your music to can accept - I think some places don't like CDR's... but if you just wanna...

What kind of guitar do you have and more importantly what kind of pickups? To me what it sounds like is your pickups are going microphonic... I think that's the term. I had a friend who's guitar used to do this - it was a screech rather than sounding like feedback though... is this what it is...

Dobro... when I think about it, your jnorman quote is spot on to how I feel about 7506's vs 240's. I personally think the 7506's sound better and are definately much louder, but I guess they may not be as accurate - I didn't get to play around with the 240's long enough to make any judgment on...

How did I know a post on headphones by The Green Hornet was gonna involve the recommendation of Beyer 250's ;) Just yanking ya chain man! Doc, I can understand wanting to try out different headphones... when I went up to Spider's studio a while back he had some AKG 240's and I had a quick...

Yeah man good job... not really my style of metal but you've done a pretty good job on this with what you've got... it's very emotive and I like the way it builds up... great song dynamics. Kinda reminds a bit of Tool.

Thanks for that link JC... that's an extremely useful site!

If you are running lots of pedals then the industry standard is a Rocktron All Access switching unit... if you are only running a few pedals then you can use a line selector... but switching on two pedals isn't so bad... just practice it and you'll be able to do it really quick... I can manage...

Why did I open my big mouth? :D It's a place here in Australia...

I know of a place where you can get 3 second hand Sennheiser MD421's for about US$450 for all three...

You can't really go wrong with Celestion... you know you are getting a quality speaker if you buy a Celestion... check out their site http://www.celestion.com - last time I checked they had samples of each of their speakers and how each sounds different... pretty cool really!!!

Ed or anyone... how does the A&H compare to the similar Spirit models? I think it's the FX16 or something...

As I've said MANY times in posts, to get a good metal guitar sound you need a not too distorted dry guitar sound and track at least 4 but preferably 6 rhythm tracks. Because metal riffs usually have subtle nuances with lots of hammer-ons, pull offs and muting the real trick is to be able to...
