Im doing the mod very soon. I have the MXL-2001 coming in tomorrow, and ill be able to order the mod in a few weeks. Any ideas...I was thinking of doing some before and after clips with acoustic guitar and maybe vocals. BTW, the power supply doesnt come in an army box any more. It comes in a...

You probably already knew this, but they make one which lets you take the top off. Unfortunately, its about 25 times more expensive than yours... http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/sid=030505124552128226222207801415/g=guitar/search/detail/base_id/51547

David Gilmour That guy from Coldplay...dont know his name. That other guy from the Flaming Lips George Harrison (slide stuff)

Im assuming you have $200 then...? Why not look into two Studio Projects B1's. They are great value LD condensers for the money, and that way you can have two mics for stereo recording, and use one of them as a LD condenser for vocals. Just a thought, im sure you will get plenty of differing...

I kinda like those sounds in moderation...sounds like the guitar player is really there. It can be annoying after a while though.

I have a 1985 Japanese Strat and a 1992 American '62 Reissue. The MIJ strat cost me about $275 and the 62 RI cost me about $750 (both used). In my opinion the 62 does play better...but i dont know if it plays 475 dollars better (or 1000 dollars better if new). For me, it was worth the extra...

I heard it got to the point where he was replacing tubes almost as much as he was replacing strings. Of course thats only what I *heard*. Sounds expensive anyways.

I got my Fender Hot Rod Deville 212 for 450 used. I highly reccomend it...its a very versitile amp which has an amazing clean and great overdriven sound. If you want to hear samples of what it sounds like, listen to these two songs. "Rare Occurence" rhythm and solo guitar was a Les Paul w/...

The TC Electronic G-major isnt that bad...and it has all of the effects that you want. It's around $500 and then you have to pay a bit more for the foot controller *i think*. They have a demo cd you can send for...it sounds pretty good. -Mike

Theres two songs I'll never forget hearing for the first time. The first song which really knocked me on my butt was "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" by Jimi, it blew my mind. I knew I wanted to play guitar from that point on. The other song which really made an impression on me was...

How much do you want to spend?

Gilmour has always used a Single coil strat, but he did use a humbucker guitar on a few songs off of Dark Side. The "money" solo and part of "brain damage" come to mind. Funny enough, he still sounds a ton like Gilmour with the humbuckers. He switched to the DG-20 in the mid 80's so...

So true. I remember reading somewhere that Steve Vai had a vintage strat for about a week before it got stolen from him. No way in hell I would take one out with me gigging....

I was hell bent on getting a real Gibson Les Paul when I was in the market for a new guitar a couple years back. I saved up about 1100 and got a very nice '88 used Les Paul Standard in cherry burst. If you REALLY want a Gibson, then save up for it, don't compromise on an epiphone. I dont know...

Ive always found that double tracking a rhythm part with slightly different reverbs and or delays and panning both signals to opposide sides worked pretty well. It didnt matter wether it was a 4x12 cab or an 8" speaker. Experimentation is key to getting the sounds you want... -Mike

Ive decided im going to do the Royer mod...ill let you guys know how it goes.

Im running Windows 98 on a pretty outdated computer: 800mhz P3 384 megs ram 20 gig hard drive Sound blaster live....(yeah i know) The reason my setup is so bad is because my good computer is at school. I will have this computer at home in 4 weeks: Win XP 2.53 Ghz P4 512 megs ram 80 gig hard...

Ive been noticing lately when I record with cool edit pro I get a lot of pops and clicks in the sound. I dont think it is my sound card, because over time more and more clicks are present in sound tracks during playback. Its not because I am adding more tracks...I will be listening to the mix...

Thanks

As far as I know, they don't sell AKG 414 b-uls in matched pairs...so do you guys use Harvey's mic matching methods to get a nice pair? Im thinking about getting one now, and then buying another later...when I can afford it.
