  1. The Boss multi's are good. I had a gt5 and thought the the sounds where ace. However, I did find that I ended up using only 9-10 of the patches (which I edited myself) so felt that I was under using the units abilities. I ended up selling the unit and getting a few single pedals which I felt was going to be enough for me. To be honest I felt that a unit with 150 user patches is a bit much. If you go for a multi-fx bear that in mind and go for one with fewer patches and save a bit of money.

  4. Quote: Flash @TMB ...I don't see what the problem is with Tom's 3 hour deal either, actually sounds like a quite good thing to me. It's helping bands.

    Pro Series Wah by Morley Gigged but in good nick. 30 quid. Cheers
  7. Does anyone know if there is a web site which has all info on the features shown guitarist mags etc. I'm going there my old issues and thinking about putting the main features, tabs, reviews etc onto the PC rather than looking inside the front cover of everyone of them to find the review I was looking for. Just a thought. cheers
  8. Really? I will say that the SHO is very fussy about where is goes in the line up. It can boost some of the other pedals way too much which causes a right racket!
  9. Geezo! I'm still baffled by all that stuff, i'm barely past a 4 track. Our bass player is more into that side of things.
  10. Well if you send a good recording im not speaking about overdubs to a venue then you would have a better chance of getting booked. At least this helps you get in the door in the first place. Is it not about promoting your self in the first place. Here is a recording of my band we sound crap and are crap will you give us a gig? NO
  11. I think the 3 hour deal in toms is a means to an end. Yes, the sound is sometimes not just right, and it's down to the studio guy to mix it while he goes. This might not be really the best sound for the band members, ie bass too loud, drums weak etc etc.. However, it gives people who are not studio wise a chance to get into a studio and put down tracks. We did this, with some of the results mentioned above. What we ended up with was 22 songs to chose from to put on to a cd for handing out to pubs. When doing so we could in truth say that this is what we sound like live. Not 6 layers of guitars etc and a fancy production to fool the venue owners into thinking they were getting the NE version of U2 etc etc. Hurray for Toms 3hrs deals;)
  12. Guitar or Bass vintage gear...or both? Cheers
  13. Have you thought of a Zvex Super Hard On, or now known as a SHO. I got one and they the boost the signal by 20db. They have components from old recording/mixing desk inside and this is why the boost is so clean. If it's used with a higher gain setting the actual volume increase is not so pronounced, but it fattens up the sound great. I used my one in the effects loop sometimes and it has the effects of give any sound being used at time a massive boost. But I still prefer it through the front end for that fattening effect it has.
  14. That's a fair point. How would school be if a teacher said I don't like Math, so I'm not going to show you how to do it. cume two thynk off it, that's wot appened in mi engliss clas.
  15. Thanks for the offer David.....but I don't think so! You had my half stack of a year before I even saw it again. Anyway you just moan about them being too heavy etc. ;-)
  16. Ok, thanks for the advice guys. So the next question is where to get these moisture bags to put in the hard cases? These guitars are not going to be used in the near future, but I can't bring myself to sale them yet. So them may be stored for quite a while. I've also heard about detuning the strings by a semitone or something...what about that idea; would this help in long term storage?
  17. Hi. Any advice on guitar storage? I'm going to be storing some guitars and was wondering if anyone knows if it's better to store them flat or upright etc etc. They are in hard cases. Cheers
  18. Buying a Gibson made me very happy as well. Gibsons are like every other guitar in that you get great ones and not so great ones. The newer Gibsons 2002+ are better built than some of the 80-90's one, and you can get some good deals on them. However, I tried a 2002 Sunburst STD and a 2003 Gold Top STD, the 03 was a lot heavier than the 02 and did not sound as lively as the 02. The Gold Top was in mint cond and was for sale at 800 quid S/hand. At this sort of money the Tokia v Gibson question is a lot tricker to answer. someone was had a Yam SG700 for sale on these pages not long ago for 250.....great guitar, and a bargain to boot.
  19. I have to say this, I had never played drums before and Biz showed me the basics on the kit. After about 15-20 minutes I was sort of holding down a basic beat. Multiply that time by 18 (6hrs), and would probably have been able to do basic songs in a band. But Biz, you do talk drivel sometimes.
