    Too Many Guitars??

    I think that chart is fantastic and definitely not too long from my point of view. As an old guy now, I see my life on that page from a teenager till now and all stages in between. From no money, marriage, raising three kids, two of the kids moved out, having money now to build my man cave...

    "Dream On" by Ramismith. :D

    Wow, holy CRAP! That's really good. At first I thought the rhythm guitar was a bit low but towards the end it came through a bit better? My hearing??? Anyway, forget that. Very well done!!!! I really enjoyed it.

    PureMix / Sonnox Mixing Contest!

    My entry into the current mix competition is attached; and it’s the first time I’ve tried something like this. I really had a blast doing it to and am glad I ran across this here. Thanks for hosting these events. As for my approach, I didn’t listen to Ben’s mix on purpose. I wanted to try...

    Cool, have fun with your new set-up. And good luck with the acoustic treatment; the non-foam type... :rolleyes:

    Finally, My New Home Studio

    Don't ever give up! When I was 28, (1988), I had two kids and soon had one more; I gave up on Music and sold all of my gear because my resources and responsiblities were required elsewhere. I didn't play for 13 years and did all of the things I was supposed to do; and don't regret if for a...

    Thanks on the Kramer. Here's a better shot just after I finished installing the Petruchi pickups and gold hardware...

    Oh yeah, then you already know he's one of the most underrated musicians ever. Always on his game and gives 100%. And thanks, I love the phone too. Since it's a hard line type, I only set it on the desk to test the line in the room and new it had to stay. It just seems too perfect.

    I ran across these about a year ago and love 'em. Griffin is the brand. They just BARELY fit but once it's secure, you don't have to mess with mic position again. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00D5EHIKS/ref=redir_mdp_mobile

    Finally, My New Home Studio

    Well, here's my completed studio project that's been in the works for a very long time. Once the wife issued the "building permit", I was off to the races. I've still got acoustic treatment to complete and most notable, the giant hole in the wall that's open to the downstairs living room to...

    Whats everyone using for amps?

    For the record, this is not “cheap throw pillow stuffing”; it’s specifically made for dampening the inside of closed back or "infinite baffle" speaker cabinets. It’s long stranded fiber material for sound/heat dissipation and I’ve been experimenting with it and like what it sounds like so far...

    Whats everyone using for amps?

    These work for me; Vintage 30's in the 4X12, G12T-75's in the 2X12 and I switch back & forth depending on what I'm in the mood for. Despite some opinions that I've F'd-Up my speaker cabinets... the bottom line for me is, I love the way they sound.

    Marshall Speaker Cabinet Mod Opinion Request

    To All, I’m wondering what the consensus is, if any, on packing guitar speaker cabinets with dampening material. I’ve got a Marshall 4X12 with Vintage 30’s and a 2X12 with G12T-75’s. I drive them with either a Peavey 5150 or an Orange OR15 at any given time. While they both sound OK in their...

    Hot off the press - "Gonna Break" - PoeticIntensity Original

    The transition from slow back to fast sounds a little wierd to me also. I like a quicker rise but then again, that's just my opinion. I like the sound and the double hits of the snare though, but maybe just a bit lower. If it were brought down just a bit it may effect the perspective of the...

    Shure 515SD

    I've got a couple of 515SB's and they work great for guitar amp mic'ing. Looking over the spec's, it seems that the "D" model has hi & low Z switch whereas the "B" model only has an on/off switch. Polar pattern and frequency response appears to be identical.

    Using home stereo speakers as monitors?

    I tried that when I was building my studio as a way to save money. Hey why not huh? I had a "spare" system that I upgraded from to build up my home theater so I thought it was perfect. Since then, I've moved to near-field monitors because as mentioned, home stereo speakers and the amps that...
