Not all music should sound lovely & warm, i quite like a liquid ass sometimes. :eek::p

miking a small amp dedicated for distortion imo will produce better results than using a twin reverb (i'm guessing there's a pa for your live setup). i used the twin with distortion when i was younger as i was lucky enough for it to be my first amp, i thought distortion sounded good with it, as...

my advice buy cheap amp dedicated for distortion & leave the poor old twin alone, distortion hurts his ears. :p

don't bother even trying to distort the twin!! you'll be searching forever for a pedal to create distortion on a twin & won't be successful imo. the twin is designed for clean sounds & slightly dirty when overdriven - it's a classic clean amp & not build for distortion so don't use something...

difficult to answer, but if i were cornered i'd have to go for... the cordeX manipulator effect pedal delux with integrated fission reactor, laser guidance system, fax, sat nav and optional compression/sustain. ;)

thanks for your help muttley600 ;)

thanks for the reply :D this is the body i'd rather not have to buy; http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/No4-Chambered-Ash-thinline-1-7kg-Telecaster-Guitar-body_W0QQitemZ140340093435QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Guitar_Accessories?hash=item20acebe1fb&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 as you can see it's different to what i'm...

I wonder if any of you know a good source of good quality thinline basic unfinished bodies in the UK. On ebay there's several but the control routing is for the std telecaster type guitar - I doubt the longer thinline pick guard would cover the control chamber. I'm wanting to convert my...

don't laugh i use the "crotch" mic technique :D, it works quite well, just position the mic between the floor tom & snare (away from vents) pointing at your crotch - don't fart while recording!! Joking aside it does work quite well, i use a sm57 but don't expect amazing results, i use it when...

ok thanks guys, i've kept the pots & cap but'll i'll just replace them with precision components, i may get a couple of pots & caps and experiment with the tonal range a little. ;) "Dimarzio Model P pickup" i'll check this out and mabye try something like that later on. "a crackly sound...

i was looking really at passive circuitry, i don't want anything like overdrive etc either, just tone & volume. :cool:

i've tried quite a few heads on my kit and never seem happy. the evans & remo heads i've tried both seem to lack brightness & seem to be too thick & rigid for my liking. i do like very bright drums. i imported a snare from the usa and it had a terry bozio attack drumhead on the batter & i'm...

i had a strange distorted crackle when ever I played a note on my usa p bass, the pots were annoyingly crackley and I needed the bass to record with in my amature studio. i completely removed the tone & volume controls as had no spares (after drawing up a circuit diagram :p) and this fixed the...

well i certainly haven't put that amount of time into my practice, i am able to pick instruments up very easily and already play a few, guitar is my main instrument. you might disagree, but i know what i'm doing and am very honest about my abilities & inabilities (thats how i am able to see my...

i hope the enlarged font version isn't assummed by others to be my original post :D:D:D Roguetitan thanks for the advice, the Bellafina SSE in all it's sexyness looks perfect, but unavailable in >GREAT< britain :rolleyes::p) i think i'll start swimming to the US!! the pick up is a nice idea, i...

mshilarious, this is the range available to the uk; http://www.elidatrading.co.uk/gliga.htm are we looking at the gem or gama range of instruments? i was quite surprised when i saw the gama 2 violin, is that only one fine tuner (e-string)?

Gliga looks good, i have looked into them before as i've heard quite a few people rave about them. i bought the student 1 just to see if i had the ability to play the instrument. so basically it's done it's job & for £50 i cant complain!! what about an electric violin? would this be a good...

it's very screechy, no real low tone. my bowing is fine, i've tried condensor & dynamic mics in various positions. i've tried different strings & rosin as well.

hello, i bought a stentor student 1 and have been practicing on it quite a lot, it's rotten for recording though so i was looking at upgrading. i only have a few hundred pounds though (and am a guitarist at heart so am not well versed in violins) can any of you advis me of any contenders within...

hello, recently bought a new controller keyboard and found that there was quite a bit of condensation on the aluminium chassis after opening the box, how long should i wait to turn the thing on? is there anything i can do yo hurry along dehumidifying the unit? eg place it next to a radiator with...
