    the guy that's not mick something from slipknot has a sig tele with EMGs, but it's not what you would expect really, all that's left is the body that is still tele, even then i think the wood is completely diferent so, it's not really a tele at all.

    When i did this to mine, the jim root tele wasnt out yet, ended up costing about 500 or around about that,

    Have you thought about buying a valve amplifier? That, with your Marshall 1960 cab, would probably sound better than the valvestate through a Hughes and Kettner..... Just an idea, and depending on the head obviously!

    A tele with EMGs? Sounds mad, got a picture?! Whats the clean like on it also? Teles are usually magic clean, EMGs are usually well too loud and flat to be good clean, so it's an interesting combination, never seen/heard it before....

    ill have a trail through my photobucket and see what i have,

    its sounds really good still on clean, not quite as good as a standards tele, but it doesnt loose all the good lowend "twang"

    im looking into getting a valve marshall eventually, but i just dont have the cash just now,

    That's my favourite one so far. Great song.

    the vulture is quite good aswell, about as far as ive got so far,

    i question them going on a UK tour the day there record goes out, would it not have made more sence to wait a few weeks?

    meh, all good none the less,

    Gear wise, i use a marshall AVT-150 through a marshall 60's lead cab, (in inverness :( ) which im selling to buy an hugh and kettner cab (the model that comes with the trilogy head) as i had my marshall running through one of yashins, sounded proper amazing,

    a boss chromatic tuner and noise suppressor,

    into one of three guitars,

    A Fender Mexican Tele with EMG 81+85's or an epiphone les paul with and EMG 81/no bridge pickup, or my gibson SG special (soon to be replaced by an ESP LTD eclipse 256)

    might add a boss digi delay soon for some soundscape. :p

  21. Got Any Good Attempted Scam Stories?

    Another scammer got in contact with me today, im going to lead this one on,

    UBS AG

    Post fact 8098 Zurich

    Switzerland

    Swiss Clearing Number: 230

    Postal Account: 80-2-2

    SWIFT: UBSW CH ZH 80A

    Web site: UBS - UBS Homepage - You & Us | Wealth Management | Investment Banking | Asset Management

    Dear Good One...........???

    I am an investment consultant working with Bank UBS AG Zurich at their offshore department Zurich Switzerland. I will be happy to work this deal out with you if you have a corporate or personal Bank Account and if you are capable to keep TOP SECRET. I need strong Assurance that you will never let me down, if I transfer this money to your account.

    During one of our periodic auditing I discovered a dormant accounts with holding balance of US$ 232,000.000.00 {Two hundred and Thirty Two million US Dollars only} Sometimes a person will open a bank account, deposit money, and then disappear into the tin air. Banks are not always able to find out what has become of these silent customers, or to know whether they should follow up on requests from people who claim to be heirs to the accounts. The main problem is that the customer resides abroad and, due to bank secrecy, the bank cannot publish notices in the international press to locate the depositaries. This has led the majority of Swiss banks to refrain from opening small-deposit accounts for foreign customers; for fear that they will forget that the account exists.

    It has happened in the past, however, that customers pass away and their heirs can neither prove the death, nor their heir ship. This was a frequent occurrence during the wartime periods, and the banks have now set up a simple, rapid resolution procedure operating to their customers advantage.

    Dormant assets are defined as any assets deposited with a bank (i.e. an account, a custody account or a safety-deposit box) for which there has been no contact with the customer in the banks files for the last ten years or more.

    If you believe you have claim to a Swiss bank account for which the holder (e.g. an ancestor) has not been in contact with the bank for over ten years, there is a fairly simple procedure to follow, depending on the date the account was opened this account has not been operated for the past years. As at this moment, I am constrained to issue more details about this business until your response is received.

    If you are not familiar with Swiss Dormant Accounts and profile, please take a moment of your very busy schedules to read about Swiss dormant accounts:

    website;CRT-II - Claims Resolution Tribunal - 2001 Published List of Accounts

    If you know that you are capable to handle large or small amount on trust and can keep secret and ready to take 40% of any amount I transfer to your account from the dormant account and I will take 60%, send the following information by return mail:

    Beneficiary Bank name...

    Bank address..................

    Account no.....................

    Swift code....................

    Account name.................

    Beneficiary address...........

    Your phone no................

    Your Occupation?

    Age.

    Tell me more about yourself, while I look forward to receive the above

    Information.

    I want to re-assure you that this business is risk free and you can send an empty account to receive the funds, provided that the account is capable to receive incoming funds. Contact me urgently via email privately for further details:

    Thank you for your time and attention.

    Warmest regards

    Mr Kevin William.
