    This Tonewood Bollocks on Electric Guitars

    lol Yeah some of 'em. Snake oil strings (which may actually be good - I don't know), $100 cables, all kinds of crazy shit. Some of them know their stuff but there sure are a lot of wankers around.

    This Tonewood Bollocks on Electric Guitars

    You guys better stay away from the Les Paul Forum. The reason those 58-60 Bursts sound so awesome is the aged wood has opened its grain up and all those years of playing have made the grain more conducive to that full, rich, woody tone. Yeah right. Well for $500k you need something to tell the...

    I bought two of those back when Harvey was still posting here and (not really) spamming them.

    Les Pauls - I'm a convert(ish)

    Buy used. At least in the US market you can get a lot more guitar for the money. I have three and paid substantially less than new for all of them.

    Stones cover..."Dandelion"

    Bubba never heard Dandelion - WTF? lol From back when you could throw a blanket over the Stones, Beatles and Beach Boys. They diverged soon enough. Nice version.

    Does volume really make a difference?

    The Vox Valvetronix emulated out is "okay". I used them on stage and took the out to the PA but I wouldn't use it to record.

    AI - audio interface. Thanx ElTee - I was scratching me head on that as well. I started with an M-audio midiman thing with two preamps. Sounded pretty clean. I later picked up an Echo Audiofire 10 which I believe is just an A/D converter - no controls whatsoever. With that I came straight off...

    London Calling - continuing with my Clash obsession

    Nice! The only thing I noticed and I may well be wrong is that the backing vox -London calling... - was "angrier" in the original. Many years since I've actually taken a listen to the original so Ima go find it and see... *edit - I was wong! Like that's never happened. Very faithful - Great...

    How much did you pay for your most expensive axe?

    $2500 is USA pricing for an LP Custom - well it was. Studios never got anywhere near that. You can buy four or five used for that.
