If he was on more often this would be a valid question, :lol:.

Anyways guys I'm highly considering slowly upgrading my amp rig.

Right now I'm using a Classic 30 if that matters. I mostly play metal.

It will be a 2x12 Cab, and for starters I'll be getting just a Power amp, and using my PODxt, and maybe getting a BBE Sonic Maximiser. After that thread the other day I've been readin about em and they sound sweet. Maybe after a bit of saving I might buy a Pre amp instead of the POD, but I dunno. I've been looking at that TS100 Carvin Tube Power Amp, and that might be what I'd get. Not really sure about a cab, possibly thinking Avatar.

I'll probably sell the C30, but maybe just save it for other things.

What do you guys think of this? Opinions...suggestions?

Yes I know I'm a gear whore.

I'm going to try and just save my money for a while though, and just get a bunch saved for more options and try to find some gear to try out, most my local stores suck though.

Nah. I do quite alot. My days are busy.
I look after several websites. Both content and design, infrastructure is not my thing tho.

Whoa Aes, I remember knowing this before from you telling me, but I was just on another site and saw info on a Yamaha AES820, so I thought I'd just say something.

I never saw the big appeal in recording, it always seemed like too much work for very little return.

Well that made no sense mate. That was harsh. Sorry.

And what is the deal with airline food?

In all fairness mate, it might not last forever.

I mean what if I record something onto my computer yeah? Then I throw it out the window and then at a wall, then pour cider on it, then try and set it on fire, then kick it, then throw a brick at it, then hit it with a chair leg and then like borrow a tank or something and drive over it, then bury it, then dig it up and throw it in the sea, then fish it out and throw it at a 3 year old, then drag it behind me at an average speed of 7 mph then drop it in an active volcano.

That recording ain't comming back mate.

[QUOTE=Phreeck II]I got banned for double posting in here when I was complly mashed. I dont even remeber posting.

So anyway im gona post a recording later i think if i get it finished.

Hello again.

Just got back from having my ears syringed which was quite nasty then found out I've been banned.

I'm thinking of selling my Telecaster and some other stuff for a Schecter S-1 Blackjack.

1. But youns can hear better now yeah? My left ear is somewhat blocked which is a bit annoying.
2. Why banned mate?
3. Thats an awful idea
4. If you do, how much do you want for the Telecaster?
5. Again, if you do, why didn't you tell me last week.
6. Anyone else watching Ed?
7. Why hasn't Ed been released on DVD?
8. Couple of hours and I'm off to pick up my new/used Telecaster.
9. I'm hungry, suggestions for lunch minus cheese products...
10. I thought of a tenth. My phone won't turn on.
11. My Mp3 player hasn't arrived yet.
12. I feel the need to take a shower.
13. I went with a bacon sandwhich.
14. Bacon is currently cooking.
15. My dog still hasn't woken up, bloody animal.
16. I'll eat then shower.
17. MX clock is way out of whack.
18. Warm today here in England.
19. Anyone know what time the England game is tommorow? I need to buy a birthday present and figure shops will be emptier closer to game time.
20. Sup weekend?

1. Yeah, I can hear fine now. :thumb:
2. Either saying hello, posting a :lol: or posting a link to that Schecter last night.
3. My Telecaster is a bit dull. It's one of those Lite Ash ones, but it doesn't really sound like a Telecaster anyway. Has these Seymour Duncan pick-ups, which I think are the cause. It need shielding proper as well.
4. About £280-ish.
5. Only decided this morning while having my ears done.

What Telecaster are you getting?

Hi everyone !

Community thread still exists ... => Behavior in the guitarforum is better than ever ??? :amaze:


Anyway, I found a nice eartraining program yesterday called "EarMaster Pro5"
Anyone else using that ?

Thats a bit harsh, I think someone is taking things a little too seriously, not naming names.

Hmm, bit high, but if you've not sold it in a couple of weeks or more give me a heads up.

And a Squier Telecaster of sorts, dunno the specifics of it. From the early 90's aparently.

Sup wouter?

[QUOTE]Sup wouter?[/QUOTE]

Today I received an email from my guitar teacher with a rather big list of Jazz-guitarists and cd's to check out. So I'm going to the library in about an hour to check some out. And I'm also going to look after a good music theorybook.

How's you doing ?

It's only about six weeks old. Not had much use really. I'm sure there are enough people who don't know about Thomman either. I might put it on ebay on Sunday if I make my mind up by then.

I'm also hoping to get a job (applied at Morrisons) so I can save up for a proper quality Telecaster, or I had the plan to sort one out with Warmoth parts.

I had a 1994 Squier Telecaster which was a Sliver Series. It was a decent guitar - not like how people rave about them being better than Fenders.

Wouter, I've never got into ear training. Should be good if it helps you out though. :thumb:

[QUOTE]Wouter, I've never got into ear training. Should be good if it helps you out though. [/QUOTE]

Well, I think it really helps :).
I do really need to do some eartraining if I want to pass the entrance exam for music college in 2 months.

Yeah I can't imagine it to be awful by any measure. I mainly bought it to experiment with. I play to humbuckerise the neck and maybe add some electrical gizmo's for fun.

It'll also do as a more acurate back-up to my Classic Tele when live instead of the Marlin Strats or the Les Paul.

1. Where can I find a Varitone circuit?
2. My Ibanez was "On truck ready for delivery" as of 45 minutes ago accord to Fedex's website.
3. How ****ing long can it take? I live 30 minutes away from the damn place at tops! I am definately gonna be like "You're late." when it gets here.

if you are that close to the place, chances are they wont deliver to you till the end of his route

That's ****ing gay.

Last time I got fedex was Pignose, and it came at 9 PM.

I just don't wanna go through that again, because I got up early just so I'd be awake if he comes this morning instead of pulling a Pignose-era-deal again.

If you're 30minutes away, why did you even bother getting it sent via FedEx?

And don't copy me.

Because OT, it came out of Georgia, and it's at Fedex's LExington Distribution station now.

Country Doctor: If you trade a Tele for a Schecter you're mad.

depending on the trade...


i could easily see me doing something like that

Every Schecter I've played, including a Custom 7 from the 80s, has been a real POS. Especially in the fretwork and overall feel.

i find that impossible to believe, but ok

Gotta spare quid mate?

lol, Devvo cracks me up, he's brilliant

[QUOTE=Nihongo]Country Doctor: If you trade a Tele for a Schecter you're mad.[/QUOTE]

If it were a decent Telecaster, yes. But I can't really say I've become attatched to this one.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

I want me some Ibanez.

I've been deeply unimpressed with the Schecters I've used. I really don't see them as quality instruments at all. However, I do think they have potential, I remember using one of the 007 models a while back, not the bolt on one, and despite alot of the component parts and materials being low quality the design was great. The access superb, comfortable body shape. Yet, on playing it stock I couldn't justify buying it and replacing damn near everything on or in it.

If they maybe stopped looking solely at the low end "hxc, look at the endorsers" market with the diamond series and really put some effort into using high quality woods and parts and installing pickups that really made the most of the guitar they could easily sell them for near double the price.

But as they are, I really do think its a sheer waste of money. The woods look plain awful, they are poorly finished and set-up stock and really have little feeling. Most recently i used one of the double hum tele styles, it was rough around the edges but besides that there was no real feeling. It felt like an ibanez, cheap, hobbled together in minutes and with no real connection to the player.
