Pedalboard modellers: Whats your pick?

I've been looking at the Line6 HX Stomp (or Stomp XL) for a while now and I'm getting close to buying time; however last night I was looking at some of the competition and the Boss GT1000CORE and the Headrush Gigboard both look really excellent... What would be your pick in the 500-700 buck multi-fx...

Re: SoCal Amp repair?

it's a dying art, especially in SoCal in my experience. i've still yet to get my marshall up to Orange County to the one authorized repair shop within 90 minutes of here (the one in Riverside closed, and the North County San Diego guy said he couldn't work on it). Mickie, if you've got a guy, i'm a...

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 nice amp ...

Woodrite Switchblade

I think I may have just came: http://doesitdoom.com/product/switchblade/ I never knew I needed an SG crossed with a Jazzmaster/Jaguar, but now I know that like crossing over the event horizon of a black hole that this guitar is inescapably in my future. http://doesitdoom.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/...

Nickel Body Resonator (Please help)

Guys they dropped my fucking resonator and the neck snapped moving to my new house. The movers were insured and it's cool, I got decent money for it but... arghhhhh what do I do? Can you repair these guitars? Can I take the neck off some how? Please help, I'm really out of my depth here and I don't ...

Re: Black Jazzmaster Project

Finally, its over. Coinciding with my citizenship, this guitar is fully functional. Sounds absolutely wonderful, I've been lugging shit around all day so too tired to do any videos, but I've been learning some 70's Soul and Motown, stuff like the Spinners - I'll Be Around. The neck pos really nails ...

Re: Black Jazzmaster Project

It was 100 buckaroos also, so I think the whole job cost about $300 overall, with paint and sanders and equipment for the body.

Re: Black Jazzmaster Project

So it transpires that somehow I've lost the decal and the nut I had for it, and going to a guitar store didn't help in the "finding tuners that fit" stakes. What I did find is a dude with 100s of decent reviews just up the road from me that is going to fit the slightly wider tuners I have ...

Re: Black Jazzmaster Project

It dents insanely easy, I'm gonna hit it again with a can of clear coat... but like, it has two cans of clear on it and I'm like how much do I need to do? My Pacifica 112 cost 110GBP in 2003 has done 400 gigs, flown to other countries, has had one pickup replacement and has minimal dents for what i...

Re: 2amp rigs with added bass

Also: http://www.headrushfx.com/products/frfr-112-frfr112xus The Headrush FRFR 112 is probably also a contender for my modern day stereo rig. Reasons: 1) I have one for my L6 Helix and it's ungodly loud, I got to around 6 of 10 on the dial on the back before getting into "too loud" territo...

Re: 2amp rigs with added bass

Re: New Pedalboard lfg

Definitely some mad deals out there as far as credit goes. I also deeeefinitely need to stop spending money on this stuff... even if I am playing a lot of guitar lately again which is nice. Not just because of the gear but cos I'm genuinely finding it good for my mental health to pick goals and head...

Re: New Pedalboard lfg

Sorry for the massive photo.

I think once I get the Synesthesia I might take the Flamma mini delay off the board, but it's also not terrible and I have cabling and real estate for it. At the moment I have it pretty quiet and always on, fattening things up a little bit.

Re: New Pedalboard lfg

Also Dots: I highly recommend the Mooer yellow comp, Thom turned me on to it and I'm a big fan. I'll probably get an expensive one to A/B against it but I really can't fault it as far as bang for buck goes. I have it with the big comp knob around 10-11 o'clock and the volume all the way up around 2-...

Re: New Pedalboard lfg

Yeah it's really nasty because 0% interest. So you pay the same, just spread out... doesn't count as credit, they don't do a pull (soft/hard) of any sort. It was how I purchased the DD-200 which was 250ish and just barely felt like I spent money cos they took 70 and it turned up Fedex'd two days lat...

Re: New Pedalboard lfg

TL;DR: Dump with no photos, will follow with photos. Updates: 1) I velcro'd pedals to the board. I bought a two row 'board but have used embarrassingly little space thanks to micro pedals. 2) I bought a Mooer E-Lady, but alas I flew a bit too close to micro pedal sun. It's a bit gash sounding overal...
