Some science happened at practice last night. My bassist in my newest project started his pedalboard with some of my pedals. We've been trading back and forth, but he owed me money. So, I talked him into buying two Griffin Analog Chiron Deluxe pedals from Wayne. They came yesterday, and...

I just acquired a Warm Audio Warmdrive last night. I haven't tried it out. It is supposedly a good clone of a Zendrive. I do not, however, have a Zendrive to compare. Has anyone compared these? They also do a Klone. Has anyone tried that? Do their clones stack up against the real thing?

I was starting to fall out of favor with my Verellen Skyhammer. I usually only play it at "someone else lives here" volume plugged straight in, usually just to test wiring. Shame my Mesa stuff kicked it off stage, because it's an amazing amp, but it hasn't sounded right in a while; Kinda...

My bassist had some speakers laying around and I wanted them. They're V30s. He wasn't sure if they worked because they came out of a cab he blew up. All of them were dead; No reading on a DMM, and the cones don't give. He asked me what to do with them, and I just said I can't use them, and...

I hooked up my Fractal FX8 to two amps for the first time last night. There was no hum or buzz. It was glorious. I'm still not using it to the fullest capabilities, but I got the basics dialed in. It's my guitar to my FX8, two outputs to two different amps (Mesa Mark V and a Mesa Stiletto...

It's a Les Paul Double Cut with a 24 fret neck. It's beat up. The tuners were changed to Grovers. The bridge pickup was swapped for a Duncan JB. There's a ton of belt rash and finish swirls, and it looks like someone chewed on the headstock. I going to fucking rock it.

I got my FX8 MKII today. For the same price as the others selling everywhere, mine came on a board with an expression pedal and a gig bag. Plus, when I looked in the bag, a giant 12 foot snake jumped out at me. I took a test drive on the previous owners presets, and then got to work. I guess...

I started a new sludge band along the lines of Neurosis, Isis, Cult of Luna, or Yob. The bassist in the band wants me to use fuzz, but I love amplifiers. We settled on a Marshall or Matamp style amps, and I bought a Stiletto. Cool. Now I have to build a new pedalboard. I don't want to buy...

There is a thread on here about the Mesa Stiletto that got my gears turning. I used to have a Stiletto Trident Stage II and it ripped, and I feel like that sound would fit the new band I'm doing. So, I checked my local Craigslist, and wouldn't you know it? One just posted at a decent price...

Seymour Duncan just came out with a new switch called the Hyper Switch that pairs with an app via Bluetooth. It works as a customizable 5 way switch for you to program whatever pickup wiring configuration you want with your phone. Anyone else curious about this? I can't find much about it...

Super pumped to go see Cocaine Bear on opening weekend tonight. Anyone else going to go see the movie based on the true story of Pablo Escobear?

What phaser pedal was used on the national anthem for the Super Bowl?

Anyone install a piezoelectric bridge on their electric guitar for acoustic tones? I've been looking at the Fishman Powerbridge to install on my guitar. The Jarrett Forza already has a route in it for the wiring, and it seems like an easy install. Anyone compare any of them, like the L.R...

I find myself in two doom bands all of the sudden. My drummer pulled me into a new project with a different guitarist, only he took my bass during our first practice and stuck me on guitar. Both bands are tuning to C, but one is drop C, while the other is standard C. I seem to he having a...

I traded into a Jarrett Forza over the weekend. Seems like a pretty decent build. This one is #70. The neck is a little wide for my tastes, but otherwise would be right front to back. It's a mahogany neck and body with a maple cap and a beautiful piece of paper pressed onto the top. I have...

My dream of having the epic rig of doom is almost complete. I got the ABY pedals, amps and cabs to run two full stacks, but I want to switch them both with one footswitch. I started with the footswitch for my 5150. I replaced the switch with a heavy duty DPDT switch, and drilled the plastic...

What are you guys using? I've always been more partial to Fuzz Face circuits, with my favorites coming from Zvex. I've never really been a huge fan of the Big Muff stuffs. I don't have any fuzz pedals, outside of the Zvex Mastotron on my bass board.

Has anyone else been listening to this? It's a computer generated algorithm cranking out instrumental djent songs. I think it slaps, and it does djent better than most djent bands. Is this the end of music, or a fun project?

This is the first album I ever recorded and produced myself start to finish. How does it sound? Spotify YouTube Or search Something Involving A Monkey on whatever other streaming service and find Canceled.

This is the second time this year, and the third time since we were all quarantined without cause, that I've provided audio for a filmed performance at our rehearsal space(s). One was a live stream for the Super Satan Show (check him out on Facebook, He's glorious) and twice (with both bands)...
