You know what Ben? I hate you.

The Chilis were too cool to come to Indy.

The Chilis were too cool to come here, so I went to them.

Sadly that isn't really viable for me.

That's too bad. The show was totally worth the 8 cramped hours in a car.

I'm sure it was. I wish I could drive.

Yeah, the driving this is a huge asset. Not that I did any of the driving (my friend did, since it was his car), but it was pretty good.

$35 on gas to drive.

Vs

$205 to take the bus.

Yeah... not a hard call.

So I just ordered myself a rocktron silver dragon distortion pedal and an mxr phase 90

fellate me

BenJammin 10-05-2006 09:26 PM

What the hell do those do?

Well, I mean... what makes them special.

i went to guitar center and tried out the mxr phase 90 on a bass and setup similar to mine. I loved it. I didnt arbitrarily get it either, Ive had the intention of getting a phaser for a while now. its so cheap (50 USD) and has a great sound.

The rocktron ive never played but I base my sale off of the tons of good reviews at talkbass. Its a dual channel distortion, one channel is a tube driven overdrive/distortion, and the other channel is a solid state distortion/fuzz and you can blend them together to your liking. Its also cheap (90 USD) and has true bypass.

plus im awesome

BenJammin 10-05-2006 09:39 PM

That distortion sounds amazing.

e p 10-05-2006 09:41 PM

yes, we can only hope.

seriously its cheap. for what I described I would think $130+

HELLonWHEELS 10-05-2006 10:33 PM

It's actually contact paper. I'll post a better pic tommorow when there is actually light. I'll probably change the carpet on it as well. Its kinda peeling off at the back.

I cannot find a tone I like out of my fretted anymore...:(

funkyhoney 10-06-2006 12:27 AM

my fretless distorted = sex :)

Jody LeCompte 10-06-2006 12:28 AM

I snuck in to the jazz band class to see this chick cello player and she was playing her cello through a big muff.

It was almost as hot as her.

Heya Funky

So any word onthat idea you were going to draw for me?

Jody LeCompte 10-06-2006 12:34 AM

I may end up breaking out my step dads old violin.

Ive always used it being fretless as an excuse not to play it, but since I seem to only like fretless now...

Just curious about what you had in mind.

Reason being I think I have come up with a pretty damn nice single cut away design.

Good luck on the trussrod deal. Hopefully that guide I posted helped.
