Cheers for the input.

Upload to where? Everyone who does torrents has winrar, or they're retarded, so idk.

gaslight 07-26-2009 11:43 AM

Box.net most likely so I can view the download counts

Thank **** that week is over. I can't deal with any more tweakers hitting me up for cash atm.

FunkMetalBass 07-27-2009 10:21 AM

Sup Cas?

gaslight 07-27-2009 10:26 AM

Not much. Waiting to get tired, noodling on guitar until I do.

Fun stuff. Was it you that had the PRS?

My guitarist brought his PRS McCarty to practice the other day. Nobody in the band know that he owned anything other than his Fender Strat and Fender Deville amp.

That PRS played like butter, even though the action and intonation were in dire need of an adjustment. I know that, if I ever buy another guitar, I'm going with a PRS for sure. Them guitars are so secksy.

gaslight 07-27-2009 10:55 AM

Oh wow, the Smokeburst one?

PRS are just, yeah, sexy. I've got an SE EG in the S/S/S pick-up configuration. I'm probably going to have the bridge and pick-ups and all that replaced one day when I have the money but I got it for a steal ($500 for it down from $1000) so I'm stoked with it any day of the week.

I would like a proper guitar amp to play it through though, maybe a tiny little Vox tube dealie.

His is the cherry sunburst. Gorgeous guitars.

How do you like the S/S/S setup? After playing Fender, I've kind of been put off by the combo. I think the S/S/H combo (H in bridge position) is decently versatile, but H/H is by far my favorite now.

I like Vox amps. I've considered grabbing a little Vox combo from time to time.

gaslight 07-27-2009 11:57 AM

I dunno about the S/S/S hey. It's got a 5 way pick-up selector, but only 2 of the positions are free of hum so I want to get that seen to. If I can have them all usable without hum, then I'll take stock of the situation afresh.

Yeah that's all I want hey, a tiny little combo, one speaker, but a really really nice one.

It's pretty common to get a lot of hum with singles, especially when solo'd. That's what I've always hated about every Fender I've ever played.

one humbucker in bridge position. job done.

Mr. Pickle 07-27-2009 06:32 PM

funkyhoney 07-27-2009 11:33 PM

Both of those things.

gaslight 07-28-2009 12:57 AM

I think having one of them reverse wound might do it too.

:amaze: 07-28-2009 11:35 AM

Sup playa playas!

gaslight 07-28-2009 11:39 AM

Not much man. This place has been pretty dead.

FunkMetalBass 07-28-2009 12:36 PM

I'm picking up the mounting bracket and wiring harness for my car today. Yay. Now I will have AUX input capabilities in my car stereo...FINALLY.

Sexy DVD player/touch screen....I'm excited.

I traded my audio interface to Raayl for his old Brice 6 fretless. :o

Nice. I love my Brice FL. It's such a comfortable neck profile and versatile tone.

Man, just listened to the At the Drive In album Relationship Of Command for the first time in years. Forgot how bloody good it was.

Yeah they will - they'll keep my girl quiet and occupied on long trips.

karmapavementplan 07-28-2009 02:40 PM

Ah, I hadn't thought of that.

I retract my smart-arse wankerishness.

Have a nice day!

It's ok, I hadn't considered the kinds of movies she could put on and the power she'd have over everything A/V in the car.

[quote=possible scenario....]
Me: What is that? Are you watching "WHen Harry Met Sally Again"?
Her: Yes! Wanna watch it with me?
Me: But honey, it's the fifth time we've seen it this week...

or, alternate ending:
Me: **stabs her in the chest and pushes her out door on highway.[/quote]

Lie to her and say it's broken, then just use it to view prawn and masturbate in traffic jams.

I do that already on my Zune.

In other news, my girl and I are thinking about starting a new genre of pr0n - Pr0nOperaphy. It's basically the same as all pr0n where you take a movie title, change it a bit to make it dirty, except we'll use operas.

All of our "actors" will have to be trained opera singers as well.

Already been done, old bean. Saw a song where some girl was blowing 4 guys and each guy she blew had a different pitch.
