Which Snark do people use?

Opinions on headstock tuners please. Bought a Reverb branded one a couple of years back, which is great (but no longer available) then recently bought a D'Addario/Planet Waves one which is pretty poor (it struggles on the E&B strings). Cheers.

I used it for the last gig I did with my old band, kind of knew that was it...I was shouting my way through the last chorus, took it off midway and threw it across the stage. It had been a fairly rowdy punky gig, a few boisterous punters. I remember seeing it fly through the air and clatter onto the floor, thinking OMFG. It was like slow motion. There were people watching who were just gasping. It just lie there, the strings vibrating nastily. No big damage. The thing is breakproof.

My old Aria Primary. Gumtree find. I've done stuff to it...Dunlop Straploks, Hipshot Kickass bridge, Delano pickup, scratchplate and controls. Every time I take it out of the house I make sure I ding it somewhere. This photo is a bit old, it's in even worse condition now.

If you want versatility of the unit, go to Spotify and dial up Lutz/Nowherebound. It's a combination of me going through a BDDI and the dUg. There's a stripped back version of the album coming next week which is insanely good and the bass is even more up front.

While he has decent chops, Tim Starace kind of represents everything I absolutely detest about these guys who are, in the nicest possible way, just playing someone else's lines. That smugness on his face, the look that shouts either look-at-me-I-am-so-in-the-groove-it-hurts or did-someone-just-fart?-oh-that-was-me-and-doesn't-it-smell-awesome? Sigh. I would sooner see Geddy (although understandably he's dealing with the loss of the new guy at the moment) or at least see ol' Timmy doing his own lines rather than gurning his way through whatever he's playing. Anyhow. Go buy a dUg. It'll do everything here and more.

8. Levy's extra long.

There's an inevitability that the coating may come off, they last ages and as a pick player there's a short length around the bridge pickup that will deteriorate. To be honest though, what they look like is unimportant; the longevity of the strings far outweighs the way they look.

Honestly don't understand why Tech21 didn't bring out the Ged2112 in this sized unit to start out with! Two or three years of reinventing. Anyhoo, just buy a dUg, folks. It'll do pretty much everything a GED will do and a load more.

He'll do anything you want if you have enough swag.

Spector Gigbag is going to @bagsieblue The Musicmaster Bridge is going to @soldersqueeze The Musicmanesque bridge is going to @prowla

Just back home...will update where everything is at shortly. Many PMs.

I wasn't really playing the game, but the Sandberg sounded the better by a country mile to my ears.

Got some odds and sods that are just kicking around. Spector Gig bag. New... My Euro came with this and a OHSC £40 Set of 3 a side machines, ferrules and screws. Off an Epiphone Phantomatic. £10.00 A pair of Epiphone Humbuckers. These are very hot. £20.00? A couple of old bridges. One is a Musicmaster bridge, the other? Dunno. Just send something to cover postage. Happy for collection (Crowthorne, Berkshire) or Denham, Bucks (work). Pics below!
