    This night has opened my eyes - Der Schmidts

    Great bit of kit, I love mine! Using it with an expression makes it ten times more useful, as it can be set up to control multiple parameters at once - e.g. increasing the gain on a distortion and lowering the output to compensate, changing the rate of chorus or phaser etc… It also serves as a split - point for separate feeds to a DI and amp as it’s a stereo out! Every home should have one.

    Me too. I listen to music every day, mostly on my iPod classic; it sounds great and I've never been frustrated by wifi dropouts or server problems.

    It’s a fine line between Phoenix and Spinäl.

    Tallahassee Lassi - Freddy Cannon

    I use a Line 6 M5 with an expression pedal for modulation, delay and pitch-shifty weirdness; everything else (filters, compressor, octave and many, many filth boxes) are honest-to goodness analogue units.

    And duct tape, lots and lots of duct tape!

    Shashlik it up - KISS

    I’m with Wavemaker - a happy accident.

    Yeah, but Doug Wimbish is a god and should be worshipped as such!

    Colin Greenwood (Radiohead) has to be the least rock n'roll name ever. I think he'd actually be too risqué to be a geography teacher. Great playing and really inventive playing though.

    My personal favourite is the Ampeg SVP into any preamp that you'd care to mention. It'll do subtle amounts of honest-to-goodness tube besmirching right up to pig-shit filth; remarkable piece of kit!

    As would Honey Badger. Also a great porn star name n'est ce pas?

    Shake Hands With Beef - Primus

    Probably 'Midnight Hour' or similar. The first song I learned* from TAB was a transcription of Freewill by Rush. That was from one of my brother's guitar magazines that he'd left lying around the house. *Not completely, but probably over 80%

    Just a word of caution - welding nozzle cleaners work fine with plastic nuts, but they really struggle getting through bone ones.

    Theme from "Midnight Cowboy" - Faith No More (and others, obvs).

    I'd recommend DHA stuff any day off the week, good luck finding one though!

    I can get close enough (for a bar full of punters) on a Jazz bass by turning the bridge pickup off entirely and rolling a little bit of the tone off - gives a nice boost in volume too.

    My favourites have always been the Wal 4 strings, a bit clunky for some tastes, but that’s just me. Their 5 and 6 strings are exactly the opposite; too much of a departure for me I think. Warwicks have a similar aesthetic, so I’m quite fond of those and they have the added bonus of ergonomic tuner layout which I like. They’re like an ‘MDP’ but good!

    DIY Effects

    paul_5 replied to JackLondon's topic in Effects

    As Bremen says, it’s a simple enough job, but it won’t be half as pretty. Can I add a second option - a cheap loop pedal with this in the Send and Return with an LED will allow it to function exactly as you described, but will leave your NE-1 in tip-top condition.
