Well, lots of well-informed feedback, I really appreciate it. It seems like I may have jumped the gun somewhat when it comes to multiple chains, though these loopers have me somewhat baffled. Seems like they break down a pedal chain into several smaller chains which can be linked but the pedals...

Not always, but at times, yes, I might have about 15+ in use. All the modulation go through an fx loop which obviously helps a nit. I do know there are options with customised rigs, but they seem a bit expensive, and I'm not really sure how they work. The Gig Rig gets a few mentions on this side...

At some point in the last two weeks I realised that my very long pedal chain was degrading my sound. I had almost forgotten what a bypassed signal sounded like, and when I plugged directly into an amp I came to my senses. Well, kinda. The thing is, I really like pedals. I like the flexibility...

Yeah definitely possible. I've started to really work on what was at times a heavy touch, on both my left and right hand. I'm fretting more cleanly now, especially since eschewing a pick in favour of fingers.

Alright chaps, apologies for the delay. Had a very guitar-orientated weekend and try as I might, couldn't replicate this issue on my Les Paul. I'm kinda worried that I might be cracking up, because I could have sworn that it was an everyday thing. I did some minor work on the intonation but...

Not really sure what you're getting at here?

This is all very interesting chaps. unfortunately, I didn't have time to check things out last night but the weekend should give me a chance to check it all out and post a sample. Thanks again for all your help Muttley, and Zaphod. If it turns out to be a neck relief issue, that'd be a truss...

Howdy fellas, Thank you for all your insights. I can appreciate that it'd be tough to diagnose without a sample, and I'm having a tough time finding the words. So the Mutt mentioned pickup height, which is something I had completely overlooked and these pickups aint stock. The sound does seem...

Hey chaps, Couple of things. My LP selector switch can make a kind of scratchy sound when switching from neck to middle and bridge. I assume the solution here is a little bit of contact cleaner? Second question, a little more awkward. Alot of the time, if I have some overdrive or distortion...

Thanks guys. Yep, I have asked that in the case of him having no use for it that he find someone who does, or pass it back and I'll find her another home. Feeling good about this, if it gives him a fraction of the enjoyment I've had from playing, it'll be well worth it.

A chap I work with bought what he figured was a genuine LP on the bay - bit of an amateur mistake but seemingly the thing is a real POS. He's a nice chap and has helped me out with a couple of issues before, so I told him I had an electric that I don't play so much going spare. He was super...

I dunno brah, I just noticed it because I love my Teles with a nice dollop of squash! :) Fantastic tone though, I wouldn't change a thing. I kinda wanna post something now.

Compression central! Niiice!

EZ drummer for midi, Drums on Demand for Audio (much less flexible). i'd advise against programming unless you're willing to spend alot of time programming the dynamics. I'm assuming you want as authentic a sound as possible, and as such, I'd go for the EZ Drummer Nashvill EZX kit. It'll do...

I would be inclined to say individual, best-of-breed vs multi-processor, especially if you had asked me last week. I like the fact that if one pedal goes down, I'm down about a hundred bills, not 600 if the newest Boss floor-processor were to bite the dust. And lets be honest, pedals do break...

I guess 'Standard' refers to Mexis but I use 'US standard' to distinguish between the Specials, Highway 1s and Deluxe variations - all US made, but all different. It's confusing and I think Fender have become more like Gibson in this regard.

Wasn't there a comparatively recent bump in the price of US standards? I also read somewhere that Guitar Center were encouraged to keep them closer to the RRP...I see the listings start there at $999. I picked mine up here for Eur 999 with a free Fender Champion 600, thought it was a cool...

I'm primarily a Tele man but I've been messing around on S-types and Les Pauls of late. I think you're right in that one of the Start's unique points is its neck pickup. There's so much snap to be had there, and stock Teles are definitely more mellow in the enck position. I used to love...

Either via a MIDI output from your drums to the MIDI input on your interface, or via 1/4' audio outs from your e-kit into 1/4' audio ins to your interface. In the case of the latter, you'll probably have a left and a right output which combined will provide a stereo image. The midi option will...

You pretty much just attach the midi out from your e-kit to the midi in on your sound-card and then launch EZ drummer as a virtual instrument of your choice. It'll most likely be configured straight out of the box, you just need to select your e-kit as the midi input and EZ drummer as the...
