    i'd like to welcome back to the family, the OG "SHFIDDY" combo...

    i bear hugged it and put it in my trunk by myself. I expected worse, but it wasn't that bad. humble brag: i'm in FAR better shape physically than i was the last time i had this thing, when i was doughy drunk lol.

    i'd like to welcome back to the family, the OG "SHFIDDY" combo...

    GC had a really clean used one with all brand new MESA tubes in it for a fair price, and i had to take it home. This is probably the 5th time i've owned one of these over the years. The master effects PMEQ in the loop, again, makes this amp seriously shine. there isn't a ton you can do...

    What Tour Changed how you played ?

    seeing IN FLAMES in 1999 in the front row of a tiny club in detroit that holds a few hundred people, when i was 17 had a pretty huge impact. I feel like their next US tour after that, with Earth Crisis in the summer of 2000 probably had a pretty big impact on a lot more people because it wasn't...

    Bruce Egnater said FACK YA FEELINGS Randall Smith fanbois ?

    fwiw...i remember taking my mark IV a/b transition to him to try and fix an issue at his shop in Berkley, Mi in the late 2000's just before he put out the tourmaster stuff, which IMO was competing with the boogie roadster/road king. He kinda looked at it a minute, and refused to work on it...

    Fender Pano Verb Amp- Jack White collab

    i'd almost expect jack to insist they were hand wired. The fender people were probably like "well you know Jack, if we hand wire it in America, we're going to be forced to charge...." and he inturpted by starting the riff from The Big Three Killed My Baby. C'mon, thats funny, goddamn it...

    The JCM900slx is the best Marshall ??

    back when i was in a band, my other guitarist used a 50 watt slx and i had my fja modded 5150. that was our sound for a really long time until we both switched to boogie marks. I sold him some old siemens el34's that really brought that slx to life. I have a lot of experience with those, and...

    My fun time ruined (TGP content)

    i never use tap tempo and probably don't know how. in all my years of playing, i never cared about tap tempo. 370ms is my magic number for leads. i want one full repeat and one super faint repeat. i want the level of the first repeat to be equal to my dry volume. I want there to be a natural...

    Show us your pedalboards!

    My board is just a piece of bracket shelfing from home depot. nothing is velcro'ed on. its a hot mess, but i'm at the weird old loner stage of my playing/life, so it doesn't matter. also my shit looks redundant, but i know wtf i'm doing :p

    new Linkin Park

    when chester killed himself, i was like "oh, so he wasn't just cashing in on the 'angry white boy' rock/rap thing". in a weird way, i guess the suicide solidified him as an "real artist" to me. this new girl looks like chester after gender reassignment surgery. maybe chester isnt really...

    Yer Mesa's are going to be boat anchors in a couple years ...

    what was the problem? 3's and iv's are not fucking rocket science, they're just tight spaces to work in. I'm by no means a real tech, but i've recapped and serviced 3's and my IVa (as well a dc-5, .50+, and .22+'s). If you know the quirks of vintage boogies, its really just about being...

    Oasis is back!!!

    I love liams werid ass stage presence. He walks on stage, and just blankly stares at 100k people in a football stadium. Then he puts his hands behind his back, looks upwards, and NEVER sings a wrong note. I heard a lot of bootlegs back in the 90's (a tape trader friend of mine really...

    The heaviest riff from The Black Album

    people act like the word "metal" is like a quality control phrase or something. it can still be classified as metal even if the gatekeepers don't like it. You wouldn't consider the black album to be a "metal" album? c'mon...
