Here we go again. Lets try to get those obscure demons that have been living in the closet or basement for the past few years as well.

You hit homers on the Hummingbird, AES, and the 125 girl. The Rocket and Spitfire were misses so here you are. I don't own a d camera so I had to surf for them. Here's the Rocket except mine is a double cutaway. Here's the Spitfire. Mine's butt-ugly. Has a DiMarz-Humbucker-DiMarz SC rudely...

Nope. But I called SWR to ask some questions and their number took me direct to Fender USA. Their guy informed me that Fender bought SWR some time ago. The design is all SWR but made by Fender in their plant.

Wow man! Hope you feel better. I've read your posts before and found them quite informative. This one is a surprise. Give em a little slack will you?

1972 Gibson Hummingbird - Martin Gold Series P/U-wife's guitar now 1960 Harmony Rocket Hollowbody - Very fun to play 1970 VOX Spitfire II - Heavily bastardized-from my punk rock days 1996 Yamaha AES 500 - fun guitar in the studio and my back-up live 1999 Fender MIM Strat - Main axe, been hot...

Well before the wife got home I decided to plug it in. WOW! I don't know what they did but they did it right. This thing sounds great. I played at low volume for a while and goofed with the features. Everything about this rig seems really solid and well built. Then I cranked it up and it shined...

Yep, alot of nice cheap soft synths out there. Yes Good is a loose term around here. Will they work? Yes they will for someone at your level. Ouch! Did I deserve that? :D Just kidding. Actually the NT1A would not be my first choice. Why? Because like you when I was pretty new to all of this...

It's here! I sure hope it sounds as good as it looks! Cool features I didn't know it had. Balanced line out XLR Effects loop with a "blend" control on the panel Tuner send output!!! The tweeter can be bypassed or -6db drop Really a beautiful amp. Trial run tonight at practice. I'll post the...

no prob chief

Wed. cant come soon enough :D

Seems like a nice pedal, but again I'm looking for a single pedal to do both my gain stages. Here's the thing. Mainly I played a slightly OD sound for most songs. I need something for a lead boost yet with a true bypass for occasional clean "Fender Twin" stuff. The volume pedal I borrowed works...

Cool Box! On the input side, what is the RCA Wild 1 and Wild 2 jacks.

Not as long as you don't need them to work. :D Sorry :rolleyes: Those are passive monitors so yes you will need an amp.

He gave a budget Alex. Metal, you have the computer already. At this stage of the game I think you're best off getting yourself a decent interface, a mic, your Pod (if you like it) and make sure your interface is bundled with some decent software (most do). This will not cost you much. Throw in...

That's why I like the Liquid Blues option.

Like the idea. Have you experimented on where you put the VP (before or after the OD) in the chain. Does it make a difference? I wonder how my BlueTube would handle being driven that way. I guess it would be no different than riding the volume on your guitar.

My cassette hard drive rocked!

I've had Tube Screamers in the past. I liked them. Not really the sound I'm after now. Also I'd rather not throw another pedal in the chain. These pedals offer "boosts" on top of their overdrive. All have true bypass.

I find the ProChannel fussy at times but usually with some tweaking it'll sound pretty good. I love the compressor and the routing features. The EQ is so-so and I tend to bypass it most of the time. The MPA is simple, powerful, and very flexible. Colorful? Yes Clean? So so. I've thought about...

My current set-up. Fender Mexi Standard Strat with Carvin SHB kit (dbl coil, sngl coil, sngl coil) 72 Fender Twin Reverb Blue Tube Overdrive I'm not much of lead player but I'm trying and learning. I've been playing rhythm for many years. I play in an Alt-Country/Rock/Punk type band. I like the...
