  1. beautiful !!! any chance of some sound clips of the new pickups ?
  2. "after that..." "next..." "and then..." it's a great programme...i've not seen the warwick one (i thought all the footage was shot in canada ??), but they've had some great instrument ones i have seen - carbon fibre cellos, the drumstick one, drumkits as well... i'll keep and eye out for the warwick one. thanks for the heads-up.

  5. [quote name='Toasted' post='135876' date='Feb 7 2008, 04:36 PM']The Reutz mod is one of my favourite mods for stompboxes.[/quote] you're not wrong there mr. toast...
  6. [quote name='sk8' post='134794' date='Feb 6 2008, 07:10 AM']i spotted them in hotrox yesterday too but we're still not quite sure what it does though are we?![/quote] i'd love to know what it does...am i blind or are they not even on the ehx site ??
  7. to me it's down to the punch... the lbm just takes away all the attack of a note, whereas today i found in the practise space that the double muff (both stages cascaded) brought the grind without mushing up the bottom end. i much prefered the sound of my ruetz modded rat for lower gain sounds. discuss or summit.
  8. [quote name='Tech' post='132357' date='Feb 2 2008, 12:31 AM']sounds like a cross between dr. who and a poorly conceived porno film.[/quote] hehe...you're not wrong.
  9. i once served david gedge from the wedding present when i worked at wh smith's in leeds as a saturday job at school. um...i walked down the road behind lætitia sadier from stereolab...
  10. i could do with a light over my pedalboard...what i need is one that runs off a pedal power supply...

    [quote name='dlloyd' post='128774' date='Jan 27 2008, 05:01 PM']Looks like I'll have to revise my plans... the seller on German ebay removed his from sale... apparently he'd forgotten to set a reserve, now that all the bids have been removed, you can see the BIN. He was after more than £1000, which is a lot for a second hand Japanese Fender.[/quote] a grand is way too much...

  14. [quote name='simon1964' post='127548' date='Jan 25 2008, 09:06 AM']Good point. How about the guy from the Killers? Some really good bass lines which drive their songs.[/quote] i agree with you about this... very good bass playing going on there

[/quote] sorry, no ! ever since i'd been a massive cure fan in my youth i'd been on the lookout for one...it took me about 14 years for one to be out there and for me to have enough money to afford one. and just to be evil....here's a little something recorded just on my vi [url="http://www.moltendog.com/myspacemusic/6song.mp3"]http://www.moltendog.com/myspacemusic/6song.mp3[/url]

  23. [quote name='Thunderthumbs' post='126431' date='Jan 23 2008, 08:49 PM']Have a look at [url="http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?ModuleNo=4153&doy=23m1#overview"]Servisol Super 10 from www.maplin.co.uk[/url][/quote] plus the one... wd40 isn't a contact cleaner - quite the opposite. it leaves a lubricating film on whatever you spray it on...

    i love mine they scare the sh*t out of guitarists i'm not sure how much they go for these days...as far as i now there's not many other options...fender does produce a number of baritone versions of the jazzmaster, but i don't think they're tuned e-e i'm not sure about 'cij' i think mine is made in japan...it's from '95 i think
