The title says it all... had a gig last night and got a crazy thumb cramp and could not hold on to my pick :doh: . Fortunately, I could fake it bass/finger-style :rock: , but it was terribly embarrasing and jacked up the sound since I am the only guitar... :thumbsdown: How do I avoid these...

yeah... so, I am seriously considering selling off my Mesa gear and going all Marshall. More and more, all the bands and players I enjoy and respect the most use Marshalls. Many of them, who can afford anything and have gone through the gear mill, started off with and end up back with Marshalls...

So, what is it? What makes a bridge pickup a bridge and a neck a neck? :confused:

So, I bought that BBE Green Screamer that was on special at Guitar Center and I am digging it. I am feeling like I shoulda listened to everyone and just gone with some kind of tube screamer or clone/copy in the first place. I didn't dig the Boss SD-1, which was my first venture into boosting. I...

I want to control my G-Major and GCX with a Roland FC-200 controller. It was pretty easy to set the FC-200 to do program changes on the G-Major. Ideally, what I want to do is ADD the on/off commands for each of the loops on the GCX, by each selected patch. I have poured through the manuals for...

I recently aquired a Bare Knuckles Nailbomb pickup. In the installation directions, there is reference to the potentiometer "usually" being 500k. Aren't most pots 250k? Secondary question, maybe I oughta just swap out the pot to a 500k before doing the pickup... Thoughts guys?

Does anyone else get pissed off about getting tired of their gear? I mean, I like so many others, have a good deal of money tied up in my rig. Lately, I am craving something... more. I am one of maybe three (well two now, since thinkpad went AxeFX) people I know that have the setup I do. Alll...

So, my buddy calls me up yesterday morning to tell me he has 4 free tix, and my name is on one of them. Later that day, another friend calls and offers me another 4 free tickets. I am thinking, "this show is going to suck if they're giving away that many tix". Free parking reinforced up my...

I am guessing anything licensed isn't as good as an OFR. How does the Schaller stack up to the OFR?

and what about 1 mega ohm? Stew Mac doesn't seem to have long shaft mega ohm... where else?

Before I go and register on the Roland forum and everything, I figured I'd ask you guys... The BR1600 has a 40 Gb HDD. Mine is full. I want to buy an external drive. Actually bought one already but the USB connectors on the drive and the 1600 are both "b". Can this be overcome with a "b" on...

You fuckers are giving me mad GAS. :doh:

not that there was any doubt... Tony is f'n stellar. Bought some tubes from him a while back. Trusting and trustworthy. Enough for me to take a moment and let you all know. Great guy! The Tung Sols sound great to me in my 5150. Thanks man. Scott

I have been extra happy with my rig. Recto rack madness. Recording Pre and 2:100. Until... tonight, I put my ear down by the speakers to hear what a mic would "hear" and I felt like the sound was a bit "ice picky" kinda harsh... kinda shrill. I love the way it sounds a few feet away... Any...

I have a Dunlop I picked up a while back. Is there a way to run it without putting it in line with the speaker cable? I don't want to lose a cabinet when I turn it on.

I have this one from the 80s. I bought it new with my first half stack. X100B. Don't have the head any more, but I still have a thing for that cab. Any idea how the "reissue" X100B cabs are? They're $399 brand new. I assume a few bucks for shipping too. But, heck I could get two for my "full...

I posted the same quesion on Monster Rack at HC... http://acapella.harmony-central.com/for ... ?t=1956482 But somehow, I expect better responsed here. Okay, I am twitching to run wet/dry/wet. I have a 5150 I want to use as the dry and a Mesa Recto rig for the stereo. I need an amp...

At the moment, I only have a DS-1 and an SD-1 for boosting. I only tried the the SD I plugged it in front of my Mesa rig and my 5150 and really liked it. I wasn't sure what I'd think and I was very surprised that I liked it at all. It was friggin' magic. But... The SD-1 kinda tightened up the...

I have this pickup sitting in a box. I was thinking of putting it in my Les Paul this weekend. But... Maybe it should go in the V. Any suggestions?
