Because you have competition.

And no, It's not me, It's Mr. Walrus over there as well and the potential hundreds that make an account, blitz on submissions, and just never return.

Use a stock photo of the product with a white or transparent background (unless unavailable). Do NOT upload a picture of your personal item, as this image will be used for other people too.

And to back Sims, this has been discussed extensively.

To everyone on this site, for God's sake, please STOP USING THE FENDER STRATOCASTER AND TELECASTER PAGE

There are different models, such as the American Standard Strat, please do your research. I'm sure not all strats and teles are created equal.

Last time I listened to trance, Goa was all the rage, which puts a serious date on me.

Infected Mushroom?

No problem with pop. I just think Kygo can do better without the vocals, It's just not working for me. To pop-ish, and not in a particularly good way.

Hey, it's been a while since I've contributed to the site (finishing up school/working/moving).

Welcome back!

I don't know if it's because I forgot how or if it was never available but how do you add members to band pages?

Top of the page, click Submit, then click Music Artist. Once you add the name and photo, you;ll be prompted to add the bands he's been in. Unfortunately, the sytem based on that is a little fragmented, so you might get the exact artist.

Am I supposed to add gear to band pages or individuals within the band? I'm trying to update a band right now but their page doesn't have any members listed in it.

For bands, do NOT add the band itself, just the members. Add gear to individual bands. For electronic artists, use their real name, and if it's a duo that works tight-knit, better to add just the name, such as "Boards of Canada".

Is it frowned upon to add bands that aren't together anymore? Some of my favorite bands have since DIS-banded (see what I did there?) but I think it would still be cool to post the gear they used where they were with said band.

Nope. It's legal.

Too much pop, like listening to an Avicii that learned to make real electronic music, actually did pretty damn well, but still retained a few bits of that pop.

Not that bad, but I have my doubts. Parson James really injects that pop sound it's kind of annoying, but Kygo's sounds are actually really good.

Kygo should just do a solo album with no guests.

Nope, this needs to be destroyed.

Misspelled "purposes".

Can someone confirm the validity of this submission? I think this is just a fan picture:

Ah, there we go, I confused it. People who "serve the songs" and people who, well, solo and such, and then there's Kanye being Kanye.

This thread is tame now, but if we were to become a massive community..

God forbid such a thing would happen...

We'd have another....

Everything but the coffee argument, that proves nothing.

Quick question about the following:

http://equipboard.com/band/gusgus

From Wikipedia, "Initially formed as a film and acting collective, the group became mostly known for its electronic music. GusGus has had a varied lineup"

Looking at EB's band page, even that pales in comparison to how many members have been, are in, and probably will be in GusGus. There is simply too many people to account for who uses what, so I think it would be better to simply destroy those members and create GusGus as a single page, so all the equipment used in the production of music by GusGus will be included.

http://equipboard.com/pros/neil-krug

What!? No. Destroy.

Well, unlike you (I'm sure), this guy's pedal board is made to make purely ambient music. Kinda like this (Kind of because this is just a cover of a song):

If no one else gives any opinions on Juniors, then this thread is derailed.

The nostalgia still stings...

There' people who use just a few pedals, and then there's this:

http://www.strymon.net/wp-content/uploads/AndyOthlingPedalboard.jpg

I think this is one of the most satisfyingly neat and clean pedalboards i have ever seen, and I hope one day, I can reach this level of cleanliness. For now, I am just getting a Pedaltrain 1, I don't even have clean patch cables!

And pray tell, how is Rob a hippy (Other than his hair, we get it)?

You sound like you use one pickup and a few pedals.

SHUN

OK, but majority of the time, I use my neck hum, only because I like the sound for leads. I rarely ever use the bridge, usually if I play with light overdrive, something that requires fast strumming. Sounds a bit muddy on the neck.

http://equipboard.com/items/ibanez-jd9-9-series-jet-driver-distortion-pedal

Needs to be categorised as an effect pedal.

http://equipboard.com/pros/rob-chapman

Look at this. 198 pieces of gear, and hardly any of them are owned or used in his band, Dorje. The majority of submissions were based on DEMO videos of products that were owned by Andertons Co., not by Rob himself.

To remedy this, I think we should just destroy the artist page for Rob Chapman, especially as a URL. Once done, we start anew by adding gear that he USES, NOT DEMO'D.

As a side suggestion, we should put in the submission rules to not submit gear for an artist that is demoing gear unless it is explicitly known that the gear is owned by the artist or he/she uses it in studio/live.

Please further categorise this as "ribbon microphones".

Sigur Ros

Honestly, their songs are like massive operas in itself when you're listening to just the album alone. The first song alone in Kveikur is such a powerful beginning to something massive, It's amazing. I'd love to see them in concert.

Steve Vai

Just once, I'd like to just see this man work his magic. People like he, Tosin Abasi, Joe Satriani, They're the people that I just want to see just once.

Dir En Grey

I'd want Slipknot, but I think these guys perform, at least to my ear, a lot better. They're guitarists lean a lot more towards rhythm, and I hope they can balance leads and solos soon enough.

I think this site can expand with music reviews... Certainly a massive endeavor, but a worthy one of partaking in.

Oh no, grammatical error! Would you please correct this?

http://equipboard.com/items/dunlop-dc-brick-multi-power-supply

So, regarding this, It's categorised as a Power Conditioner. I looked up the definition, and it pretty much describes any power supply for effect pedals. I think we should probably categorise all power supplies, such as the Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2+ as power conditioners.

http://equipboard.com/items/orange-or120?src=pim_img

Categorise as an amplifier

Categorise and give it a better name.

http://equipboard.com/items/es-137-canelo

Categorise, reword it, It's a Gibson guitar, and use the following picture:

http://equipboard.com/items/1950-s-gibson-les-paul-black-beauty

Categorise as well as reword. Gibson should be first, not the year.

Fair enough. Saw the article, very spiffy.

Good luck to everyone!

You should just make a YouTube channel about your opinions on music, you'd do well ranting about the fall of the music and guitar industry.

Welcome! make yourself at home, and be sure to check the following, it just started this month.

http://equipboard.com/forums/general/topics/giveaway-sennheiser-hd-25-headphones-august-submissions

I know VGS from their Evertune bridges, I was thinking of getting one in the near future. Fantastic products, but guitars? No idea.

No neck pick-up? I'd probably destroy this thing just trying to make it function as a double humbucker, or maybe just move the bridge up to the neck.

I need my neck hums. Some bridge pick-ups sound so trebly, It's disgusting. Balance, people. There's a reason dual and triple pick-up combinations are more popular. Billy has a ridiculously linear sound, so he can easily rock that Juniour, but not the people who want more variation and aren't wanking on four chords and a single, "serving-the-song" solo.

You have to give it to Green Day, though, they represent punk and pop rock in general.

I once played a $1000 Taylor right before playing a $3500 Gibson acoustic. The Taylor beat it in every way.

Martin and Co, mate. Martin and Co.

The phrase "Take my money" has never been so applicable.

If only...

You're damn lucky you used intelligible paragraphs or your post would have topped the last as biggest post in EB history.

Stay grammatical, friend.

I don't understand how you can possibly connect with them, they look like dead people that just got reanimated. Even the street musicians are, at most half the time, terrible. The other half are skilled musicians that didn't get signed, I guess.

Walk behind some highschool girls for one minute, you'll get what I mean. It's like my head's gonna explode, but I had to deal with it since I was going in the same direction (back in high school).
