awesome man !!! Thanks !!

yeah ...... you can still DM me right now ..... that will most likely end soon though .... my time here is going to become non existent to very seldom

I have to see how things play out ..... I don't think it will take long to have my own site up and running .....
I think you can post in the main forum still and always in the manufacturer forum they set up with you
 
Nice man! I love that pedal....I've been using it for a while but the other night for the 2nd set I shut the OD off and just ran the pultec with my amp cranked. The result was killer and what I had been trying to get. I think it's probably the best guitar pedal I have ever owned.
It really kicks ass. I use it in my loop & find that it gives really good fine tune control over certain frequencies ... The "pultec trick" of boosting & cutting the same frequencies really helps to tighten up the sound. Makes the low end punchier without getting too flubby & makes the high end sizzle & bite without wide upper mids. I also find that balancing the pedal level control with my master volume I can push the power section in different ways which helps to tailor the sound for different rooms at different gigs

Agreed. I was having issues with the high end getting weird at extreme volumes. Being able to cut and boost within the same band helped clean things up plus I can keep my bass tighter at volume when the amp starts to reach it's limits. Amps and cabs can do strange stuff when you push them into 120dB and beyond, especially combos....
 
Couple ideas.... Shittiest rig performance? (Guys use the shittiest gear they own and make a video.... 10-20 second limit, balls out kinda like rigs of dad...)

Nicest rig/setup?

Most unique or mystical amp?

Best home job guitar/modded gear?

Was there some thread on this? Surprised griff is out of the classifieds.
No thread ...... Last thing I want to do is come across as whining about the situation ...

I'm being recognized by the site as a manufacturer ....

and manufacturers aren't allowed to be in the classifieds

I was directly told .....

someone used me as reference I guess when bitching to a mod about what they could post and what they could not .. or in Laymans terms " Why does Wayne get to and we can't " ??? were the exact words I was told ...

and I've decided to pretty much close up shop and move on .... at least from here

What's really a shame is I rarely if ever see any of those manufacturers associating in this section with actual forum members. I see Matt's guitar loft post about amps once in a great while and the scumbacks speaker dude now and then but that seems to be about the extent. What I miss? Maybe if some of them took time to actually associate with us plebes they'd rack up a few more sales and wouldn't have to complain about one guy posting pedals in the classifieds. :LOL:
 
I was told I could post in the main forum but like I told Dan ..... I felt like I was spamming the main forum posting my builds all the time

was thinking the whole time it was better they were in the classifieds ... lol .... definitely didn't think I was breaking any rules

the only reason why I would build multiples of one pedal and put them in there ( like I suppose a manufacturer would ) with like different colors was so someone if they liked the color scheme wouldn't have to wait a month to get one ...

you know what's funny if you google SD-1 a certain way .... it leads to a thread Smash did ages ago and he's telling everyone how my Superdrive kicked his SD-1 ( he had a rare one I think ) off his board ...... several people signed up because of that thread to get a hold of me for one .... I gotta hang with that guy sometime ..... I think me and Smash would have a blast .

anyway ... I get it though .... you don't want the classifieds to turn into Reverb .... it's the last thing I would want to

problem obviously is I got to big for the site ..... big enough where I was used as reference and by first name not Griffin Analog

and that's why I feel like it's time to move on ....

They could always reverse that you know. These stupid-ass rules aren't etched in stone or something

Why don't you contact Steve the Murderator for help with that and none would be the wiser if you bitch and moan to him.
Which it seems you definitely are in the right to do so.

Wayne - I probably speak for most when I say your logic here is not adding up regarding you leaving Rig-Talk. :dunno:

I mean, we all love you and want you to stay. At least take a 48 hour break to rethink this. I just feel like you are knee jerking just a bit. I can see your point of view though. Sounds like you are more than welcome to continue talking about your offers and your projects in the Main Forum. You could simply point people to your subforum for more information. You could also like, you know, put some links in your signature to that and a webpage and a YT channel etc. I have some webpage building experience and my son is a successful YT'r who knows the algorythms. Hit me up.

PS: I still feel a costume contest is a great idea :yes: Gets people engaged and would be fun. You could do do graphic based on the winner :dunno:

+1 to @reignman454 's ideas

no offense ....... but I'll do the Math regarding my Logic on leaving ..... you don't have the whole picture on this ..... Nero was already asked to wipe my sub forum ... it's not needed going forward if I hang around a little bit or not ...
 
  • Wow
Reactions: rsm
Wipe a sub forum? I don't get it. I hope you don't leave man. I enjoy seeing your creations and I have been on a pedal craze since buying some of your stuff!! I hope you find a way to work with the mods and we can all still hang. You have been a good dude to a lot of us here and I bet you help generate traffic here at RT. Your giveaways get a lot of turnout.

I'm still not sure if it's going to be a total deportation or not yet ..... I'm figuring some things out ... but yeah ... I asked my sub forum be wiped ....

if I'm perceived as big enough to use as reference I got to start acting like it .... I need a website ... youtube channel .... obviously some recording gear

I got hit up yesterday to do a couple of amp builds ... so that's cool .... I have the laser now so I can do everything but fabricate a chassis to build some amps ...

Once I get the youtube channel up you guys can make fun of my videos and tell me how much I suck at Life :)
