I'd quite like to get the Harley Benton powerplant jr. Unlike the big version, these are isolated.

They're crap. Will be noisy with some pedals, okay for most. As a general rule, look out for power bank type things with a chunky 'wall wart' transformer for a plug. ie, DON'T get ones that use a wallwart, right? Rather than "look out for them and buy them" Haha, yeah. Maybe "watch o...

Nice pedal board, but what is this ikea box? Is it new? I could do with a dozen of these things at work.

Yeah you'd have to send a tracing of the bridge guard and get a custom one made. It's a non-standard item.

Watched the first vid, good stuff! I do like this guitar, although the very first thing I'd do is chance the pickguards - that tort is horrific. You can get some printed stuff close in appearance to the proper Mad Cat leopard print, but even plain black would look better than what's on there. Maple ...

Thanks! They're mainly the Green Russian Big Muff that Julia uses. Then the second channel is a choice of two one-knob fuzzes - a modified Bazz Fuss which is super simple, but makes a lovely doomy growl - and a waspy fuzz loosely based on the Shin Ei FY-2 at its trebliest setting.

I think the Future of the Left Stompenboxen pedals are arriving with those who ordered them now, so it's safe to share a pic of the finished item. Here's all fifty of them getting tested. http://www.fredric.co.uk/misc/stompenboxen-future-of-the-left-testing.jpg I finished testing them with my SG for...

Liam is a dude. He put my band on in Deptford but we got the pub venue early and the locals scared the shit out of Yola and Stacey so we had to leave. Sorry fella!

Yeah you probably want to put this in the classifieds (which you can see once you've got 50 posts). However it's highly, highly unlikely anyone on here has this guitar. I'd quite fancy one though.

They look very similar, so they could well be from the same source. The Cort one looks fine, except for the logo which has been drawn by a fucking child.

Yeah they're good pick-ups. Nothing to compare them to though! They're so cheap just go for it. Seem well-made, and I like the red fibreboard. They're potted in beeswax a bit roughly though. Think there was some bits of bee in the mix.

Re: Courtney Owned Fender Venus for sale

a volume knob was left out of the build because she apparently would keep turning it up louder and louder

Love the Venus though. Gonna look for one on eBay now.

It's a wonder no-one ever cloned the DS-1. Even one with the uncle monty mods already there or whatevs.
