We're still getting shafted on guitar prices in the UK then.

They ended up destroying a load of them. I know they’ve got a face only a mother could love, but it still seems pretty wasteful.

NickD

That's some spectacular work. I would've given up immediately and spent a day kicking myself for having bought "junk". People in the 60s didn't have a fraction of recording tools that we have but it didn't stop them from making great things. Rudy Van Gelder recorded and mastered some of t...

I had the original and it was good, but too many options TBH. In practical terms it didn't like being too close to, or using the same power supply as the rest of my effects, so had to live off the board. What did it do? I have 2 and not the power issues. http://i.ibb.co/hD72wVC/PXL-20240308-2027257...

No need to apologise Rhys, where would Shortscale be without drunk posting.

NickD

It looks like a Fender Performer without the trem and weird pickups.

NickD

24.75 scale models that use headstock angle to provide string tension need a fucking volute. Say it with me, people. Volutes don't really do anything TBH, except possibly move the break elsewhere. I'm tempting fate here, but I've been playing Epiphones and Gibsons since '89 and I've never had a hea...

Despite having absolutely no need at all for a big amp, I would love that.

NickD

Looks great with the black covers.

NickD

Oooh, I'm interested in this. A wee while ago, I got the stuff I needed to make my own sustainer. It was pickup wire of a thicker gauge (dunno about electronics, this was preferred because of something to do with inductance vs resistance maybe...., can't remember, didn't really understand at the ti...

I used to have one, but with a single Gretsch pickup (I forget the name). Somewhere around 2006/7. It wasn't a bad guitar, but not good enough to leave much of an impression either.

Came to mind for me too. And combined with use of a razor blade too.

I’d enjoy that.

sunshiner wrote: ↑Mon Jan 01, 2024 3:19 pm That's one sexy SG, NickD. Are those nylon saddles or am I mistaken?

You’re correct, nylon saddles. Standard spec I think.

NickD

Luckily this plays nicely. Definitely my prettiest guitar though.

NickD

A quick couple of family photos of my current guitars (Martin excepted). Pretty happy with this selection TBH.

If you count reverb, then yes, I have that on pretty much all the time. I keep the amp turned up to about 7 (non MV Marshall), control the volume with an attenuator and the amount of drive with the volume controls on the guitar.

NickD

A close escape, I think. He's got no cause to be pissed off, he was trying to pass off a broken pedal as ok, and that's a shitty move.
