Re: SoCal Amp repair?

Nice dude!

Yeah solid fella, he's up in Buena Park area which is not my neck of the woods, we were shooting the shit about Spaceflight because everyone in LA that is a nerd is basically a space nerd.

He got my shit back up and running turns out it was a bunch of burnt out caps, he even fixed my ...

Re: Behringer Chorus Symphony


I bet Boss wish they'd reissued the CE-1 now...

I get a feeling all of these Behringer "vintage" purposely fall into a way-greyer area of trade dress copyright shit - I remember when they first shared the original designs of the Boss compact pedal rip-offs, they were near identical to Boss and ...

Laney L5 Studio

Someone finally wanted my D'Angelico Premier Singlecut (it's been nearly 18 months of trying) and they had one of these lil bad boys, so we did a straight up trade.

It's SO frickin' cool. I haven't found much use for the clean channel but the drive channel is EXCELLENT, apparently it is modeled on ...

Re: SoCal Amp repair?

So!

I retubed it, was sounding good for a bit, even got a power tube bias to what is set in the manual (+ a little bit because that's what all the really cool people with big hair in the 80s do). Then I moved it and the weird shit started happening again where it was changing channels randomly and ...

Re: NPD: RE-202 (how do I MIDI together three things?)

Whoa I can just make a f u c k i n g l o o p and come back out of my RE-202 back into the ES-5 and it'll midi thru all my shit. Like a human centipede but for pedals, and it goes fully round in a circle so everyone shitting into everyone else's mouth.

Re: NPD: RE-202 (how do I MIDI together three things?)

Ok I guess one answer is that the ES-5 is the master, and everything else is the slave and I send midi to the GT-1000CORE and midi thru to the RE-202

I know that MIDI is multi channel, is there anyway that I can MIDI in/out for both the GT-1000 and the RE-202 and turn it into one massive control ...

NPD: RE-202 (how do I MIDI together three things?)

It's coming in the mail and I'll a lil demo of it when it gets here.

In the meanwhile, how do I MIDI together 3 things? I have MIDI together my ES-5 and my GT-1000CORE with TRS -> trad MIDI cables, but that takes up all the slots, so how do I get a threeway going? Part of the reason I wanted to ...

And it's gggawwwwnn.

Probably got reported. I did find another Ironheart in the area for 700 which I'm not interested in but is interesting that you can get something that portends to be the successor to the AOR for 675 bucks 50watts...

This deal is too good to be true right?

This just cropped up near me and I have a spare 400. When I look online this head is like 1500 and the cab is 999 new. What is going on here? Do I just run and buy this and flip it?!

Re: pictures of your gear here

Ooo also speaking of recording (all the white hairs are German Shepherd hair, its an uphill battle believe me), here is my really ghetto recording setup and I really like it. This IK Axe I/O has a really cool "re-amp" output so I can feed stuff from Ableton into my pedal board and record it back on ...

I'm not going to make another pedalboard thread, I just never got in the spirit of posting here.

This has been my finished board now for a few months and I like everything so much I'm even gingerly recording guitar all the time again and writing originals which feels good. I'm considering finding ...

Re: NGD - LTD Viper 256P







24.75 scale models that use headstock angle to provide string tension need a fucking volute. Say it with me, people.




Volutes don't really do anything TBH, except possibly move the break elsewhere.

I'm tempting fate here, but I've been playing Epiphones and Gibsons since '89 and I've ...

Re: SoCal Amp repair?



Howdy y'all, need to get the PRS Sonzera 20 I bought serviced as there's a bloody great hole in one of the tubes - I can see it from the back of the amp. It's also humming like a fridge which is probably why the guy was selling for 400 bucks instead of the normal 500-550ish.

Overall it's a ...

Re: NGD - LTD Viper 256P


Very nice! Quite a collection of pretty, red, not quite SGs. As someone who always liked the look of SGs but could never get on with how flimsy they feel, these both look great.


My problem with Gibsons is that they will not fix the neck snap problem. I have a Les Paul that is just retired and ...
