Jeff Buckley's Pick

Aren't these just straight nylon picks with cool graphics? Antique, probably, but they probably won't last long if you use'em. Unless you want to put in a case and show it off to your friends. "I got this sig pick by Jeff Buckley. Yes, THAT Jeff Buckley! Fuck yes!"

Anyone Try and of Red Witch's Seven Sisters Series Pedals?

Fair enough, but i'm talking about these birds. Also, I agree, the mod pedals look and sound very good.

Curious of the sound on some of these. Rechargeable, tiny two-knob pedals for around $80-$110. I'm skeptical. What do you guys think?

Oh wait indeed, Mr. Walrus!

Identifying the gear

Your ellipsis insinuates an undermining of my lack of knowledge of Vox heads. You're correct on that.

What makes you say it's an AC30 head?

Fender Jazzmaster pickguard refit

I think it's because the guy who made the guide also changed out some knobs and the pickup covers.

Help me to identify some guitars

Honestly never seen guitars like those in my life. Can't help. Sorry.

Maybe they're customs?

Fender Jazzmaster pickguard refit

Here's a good resource on how to install a gold pickguard. Parts include the Allparts Golf Anodized Jazzmaster Pickguard. Everything else is just black knobs and covers, which I highly recommend since the white on the J Masic doesn't look that good. Is this a sunburst or black Jazzy?

So, basically a lower/middle class individual, right?

Gear Purchases

Yeah, from what I hear, the problem is a broken wire or something. My dad's quite the handyman and quite the optimist. So, when he says the drill's dead, that basically means it's dead. I should ask him again, but the answer will most likely be the same. Hopefully i'm wrong and I can just solder my way into fixing this thing.

Identifying the gear

Judging by your edits and your submission, it seems you beat me to it. 745 it is. Lee Ranaldo has a semi-hollow version. Very nice look to it.

Wow, everything's so... crushed. Sounds like a weird, out-of-control ring modulator was pushed into some of those sounds, then controlled for the verse as a sort of fuzz. Pretty good vibe you have going so far.

"if its offensive to small children then I am doing my job"

I was under the impression that it would be offensive to much older gentlemen. ESPECIALLY that type of music. You know stereotypical old men hate that noise, how loud and indiscernible it is. They don't even know what the hell an internet is.

Edit: Give me a moment to listen.

New Practise Amp!

This is the answer I most expected. As much as an AC10 would do mildly better, it's simply too much for practise and just not worth it.

Okay, so that just narrows my results. This is good. I'll have to sit on that for a bit.

I'm telling you guys... Lack of good educational fundig. I sincerely believe that's the underlying cause.

10yabout 10 years ago

Xotic Guitars

From what I hear, our education system is cutting arts and such. A shame because that's the exact opposite of what needs to be done.

It's truly sad to know that people are going insane for all these new laws, yet they don't understand that the underlying problems may be a distinct lack in educational funding.

I'll get my glasses today and listen to your remix soon. You linked it here, eh? Page one of this thread, I believe.

10yabout 10 years ago

Xotic Guitars

I'm not sure how it works in England, but it's a bit odd here in America. We have community colleges that are very affordable and people use to take general education classes so they can cut costs and transfer to a four-year university while only paying for classes relevant to your major.

Drinking age is 21. I'm 19. Like most people say, you only need to be 18 to go to war, but 21 to drink. So when has a petty drinking age ever stopped anyone such as myself?

Very informative update, Duke.

New Practise Amp!

Any thoughts on the AC10 as opposed to the AC4TV? I can get an AC4TV for below $150 (which is extremely important to me), but maybe it's worth saving up and investing on an amp that, even with 10 watts, seems to be of studio quality? $450 retail, but used prices can go downwards to $350.

Shit, i'm home and I have to be four inches from the damned screen just to see what the words say.

New Practise Amp!

So, basically, for just $295, Ican make this Vox sound like an authentic AC15 or such in a little 4-watt box. Did I get that right, because it sure sounded like that was what they were selling. Seems pretty cool. I'll keep that in mind.

You finished it, eh? I really like Whorse's works, especially this one he just made. I'd listen to this remix, but i'm at thene park. And I lost my glasses and am completely blind.

Frankly, it's going to be very disinteresting until uni. Right now, I am just trying to get community college done with as quickly as possible.

Don't worry, i'm in the same camp.

Jim, maybe this site and its forum attracts younger guys? Makes sense. Only seen a few older guys ere, and then there's me somewhere in the middle.

Just out of curiosity, that lick he's playing at the beginning, what bands or artists would you say influences him?

Duplicate items?

It's a duplicate. Not sure about the meanings of the names, but the numbering is kind of screwed up. G5445T is the exact same as the G5441T. The difference is the latter is a firebird red colour.

I say delete the Gretsch Double Jet, and edit the second one by removing "G5545T" as that's pretty much the same as saying "Gretsch BLACK ...".

I think the Electromatic to Pro series would be like Standard to "American Standard" and all the other high-end Fender guitars. Or, if you'd like, Studio to Standard.

Not a pain at all. Problem is, they're not touring with TTNG. It's the 22nd of July at the Teragram Ballroom. Mylets is playing at the Roxy Theatre on the 30th of September. I might check them out. If I do, I'll make sure to check out their gear.

I have decided that the first song i'd play if this dream were achieved would be The Great Gig in the Sky.

Now THAT is a dream i'm willing to chase. I've only heard rumours of the spund quality of a great record player coupled with high-quality speakers AND a room dedicated to focusig all soud on the user...

I'll chase that.
