Re: pictures of your gear here

New board: I've heard that all the cheap nano format octave pedals are not very good. How do you find the Mooer? That’s probably for the OC-2/3 style octave down pedals (maybe also the pitchfork style like Freddy had) The V1 Tender Octaver is well regarded and basically an EHX Micro Pog, IIRC they ...

Re: pictures of your gear here

Nice. How’s the Deadbeat? Jack of all trades master of none. I usually leave it on detune for subtle chorus, but all of the other sounds besides phaser and flanger (not because I don’t like flanger/phaser, it’s just particularly bad versions of both IMO) are very usable and handy to have on the boa...

Re: Hardluck Kings Spider(s)

Just wondering Mez- did you find out if Kim went for the pro-setup option when she bought them? They offer that as an additional cost- wondering if that’s why they were so nice out of the box or if it’s just standard Either way they both look great, I think I prefer the evolution of the shape on the...

nice! I know I was crapping on those 4 weeks ago but I’ve seen a few pics on Facebook groups and I think it works better in person.

Re: NGD: 1968 Kustom K200 (and bonus Ibanez GAX30)

^ yeah I already love it as is, so I don’t plan on a refin even though it’s be guilt free from a preservation standpoint. There’s evidence in the sound hole of this originally being blue or green of some sort Maybe like this: IMG_8514.jpeg Oddly enough my best/favorite guitars tend to be boring/natu...

Re: NGD: 1968 Kustom K200 (and bonus Ibanez GAX30)

I never knew Kustom made guitars, I thought they only made amps. Aside from the weirdly placed strap button, it looks cool. A sort of weird child of Gretsch and Rickenbacker. Is the neck on that Gio on the thinner side? Gretsch plus Rickenbacker is a good way to put it, but with the neck profile of...

NGD: 1968 Kustom K200 (and bonus Ibanez GAX30)

the Ibanez was actually first… it was a $40 yardsale pickup, and to keep it cheap I just used spare parts I had in the bin to spruce it up- neck pickup is from some 70’s Harmony Les Paul and the bridge is from a Fender MIM. Speed knobs, GFS XGP 500k pots…just needed a better blade switch since all I...

Re: New Squier Paranormal Range

It was really nice quality, I liked everything about it aside from the weight (it was nearly 9 lbs) and the weird bridge plate situation (aesthetics). The pickups had a nice sound and the neck was comfortable for a XII. I only sold it because it was worth more than I had into it and couldn’t justify...

Re: New Squier Paranormal Range

I’m gonna be completely honest, these do nuthin’ for me. That was my feel with the last wave. Bought the cyclone out of FOMO and always regretted it. Really am missing a XII though, not in love with the color combos, but either could be improved with the right pickguard. And as it is I’d be waiting...

Re: New Squier Paranormal Range

I’ve been thinking about a XII since selling my Alternate Reality XII. Was hoping Squier would reissue the Venus XII when they made one, but this is nice too I guess. I like the rascal bass a lot, especially handsome in black, but I really don’t need another bass and don’t want to sell what ai have…...

Re: Josh Scott's pedal collection

I owned one briefly in 2007, I replaced it with a Nobels ODR-1, which at the time was on equal footing (about $40) to the Monkey on the used market. All the pedals in that Digitech series just looked goofy, who even cares how they sound?

I’m all for new comp stang colors. And I don’t even mind swapping some pickup covers. But these are all lame.

I want that green one with some medium blue stripes
