    Elixir strings: Polyweb or Nanoweb?

    I like my dental floss between my teeth...Not my strings. I still have a can of the promotional dental floss they gave away to the first customers that tried them. Just because they last a long time and I have them on a few of my guitars that sit around for everybody to play, doesn't mean I...

    Reference Power Amps

    You might want to consider a set of powered monitors. I've run a variety of ways over the years and found that a good pair of powered Monitors made me smile a little more often. I've been using the Yamaha MSP5 Bi-amped monitors with 40 watts dedicated to the 5" and 28 watts dedicated to the 1"...

    Audix D6 for kick/bass?

    I've owned all of the above and out of the three I would pick the Audix for recording and the D112 for live. The ATM25 packs a nice tight punch. Really there's not a dog in the bunch, it just depends on the sound you're looking for. To add to the confusion I ultimately ended up with an EV kick...

    Rupert Neve lives about 20 minutes away from me!

    I once stayed in the same hotel room that Eddie and Valerie had the night before. Room service delivered towels three times that day looking for an autograph. I think I slept on the same pillow. I must be a greater man with super human powers by association. oh ya...One time before He married...

    I've used my SP LSD-2 with my audio buddy and it worked out OK. Not the best sounding or even flexible pre of course but packed up nice for a mobil project. I didn't hate it. C

    Several years ago I also developed the same symptoms after to much exposer to playing guitar, typing and some heavy yard work. Unfortunately I had to lay off all of the above in order to completely heal. The worse part was it took two full years to recover. I typed with one hand at home and...

    good live reverb?

    By two channels I'm guessing you need two units??? The digitech quad4 will give you four independent channels or linked as two stereo units. This might kill two verbs with one rack space. http://www.digitech.com/products/quad4.htm C

Like volume knobs on car stereo, door handles etc. We had to CUT the saddles off His strat once a year. Forget about the height screws after a Month, they welded in forever. Sooooo don't...
