  2. wanting boss me-50

    in Equipment

    Posted

    i know for a fact this is not true.

    Right i cba arguing so we'll end it here, but I know for a fact that it IS true, considering i was the one that worked for it... I had a job for ages saving like hell.

    But yeah to the point of the thread i think robbie is more after something with a whammy to de-tune.

    i couldn't agree with you more there. you're absolutely right about the pedal being down to personal opinion. however, by 'shite', i was referring to items which i can only imagine have been bought without any sort of foresight, and in this situation i know for certain that the postee of this thread will have rushed into a decision to blindly buy the pedal without actually taking the time to think: 'do i really need this?'

    as an answer, i can make an informed guess of no to that question. as a result of a frankly embarassing youtube video i had the misfortune of experiencing a few months ago, i know that he is currently running a line6 multi-fx through a spider 75 watt head. these both have the capability to do almost exactly the same as the pedal that this thread is concerning. i would also make a guess that said user hasn't actually used the pedal for himself, as he would have realised that it essentially gives him yet another set of tones which he will tire of trying to make sound 'good' after another few months and realise that it is another 100 wasted. when i saw his thread on advice on tube amps i thought he had realised that purcheses such as the pedal concerned were not what he needed - but seemingly not.

    i've thrown away so much money myself on sub-standard gear, and it really gets on my nerves to have some fucking moron 15 year old - who i know has had a 6505 and orange 4x12 bought for him - criticising those who actually work and have made the mistakes for themselves advising a fellow user on an item he is potentially going to purchase.

    david, get the fuck off your high horse, 'otherwise, move on', if you will.

    slightly later early morning rant over!

    Okay, yeah fair enough. I can appreciate the fact that you're trying to give Robbie some good advice. However, instead of just saying "no" or whatever, what about giving him some ideas on what to get instead with his budget?

    Another point, is that my post a few posts above wasn't me. It was actually Robbie himself as I'm at his right now and he couldn't be bothered signing on to his. So to be honest, I didn't really want to get involved in this, as I can see where everyone is coming from.

    Also, I didn't get anything bought for me, I bought everything myself, had the money and didn't see the use in getting equipment I'd later regret. Just to clear that up.

    But anyways, any advice on what Robbie could get then?

    if he wants one he wants one end of. he has had one before and liked it so wants to buy another one, i dont think he cares about people saying "dont get one" just leave him and if you have something to sell, sell it, otherwise, move on.

    in Trading Post

    Posted

    just give me an offer.

    David.

  8. Some stuff for sale

    in Equipment

    Posted

    Okay so i'm in need of money so i figured it's time to sell a few things;

    Pod XT

    -In fairly good condition, I have the box lying around somewhere, but unfortunately do not have the adaptor for it. I'm sure i could probably buy one and through it in, but i'll wait and see.

    100 ono

    LTD MH250NT w/ EMG 81 and 85

    -Good cond. except from one of the machine heads is a different colour from the other as it was replaced. This is not noticable and can easily be changed. The guitar works and sounds amazing. EMG 81 in the bridge and EMG 85 in the neck. It's in brown sunburst and looks amazing. It is also neck through and has 24 frets.

    300 ono

    Roland TD6V electric drum kit

    -Everything with this works fine. There is a mesh snare and 3 toms, 2 cymbal pads and 1 hi-hat pad and obviously a kick pad. There is many sounds and settings that can be set and i'll be sad to see this leave. There isn't much i can say about this but it works fine.

    I'm not too sure about the price for this, so just offer me and we'll talk. Comes with a throne.

    Sonor Double Bass Pedal

    -Right handed, sonor double bass pedal. Works fine. This can be bought with the kit above, so we could sort out a deal, but can be sold as a seperate item also.

    75 ono

    Shure SM57

    -This works as new and has only been used for recording now and again. It is 100 percent real as you see a lot of fakes going about. Brilliant for recording anything really. Comes with box and case.

    60 ono

    Some prices may be a bit high, but i'm fairly reluctant to sell some of these, but i do really need money haha.

    Just leave me a message or something.

    Cheers. :up:

  10. Wanted: Ibanez guitar

    in Equipment

    Posted

    So first off, I don't have that much money, but i'm offering a trade.

    I have a LTD MH250 NT in brown sunburst.

    I've replaced the pick ups and put in an EMG 81 in the bridge and an EMG 85 in the neck. It sounds amazing and works fine. However, a few months ago one of the machine heads broke so i have replaced it. It is not an esp machine head, but it isn't noticable on stage and works fine.

    The guitar looks and sounds amazing.

    46979_l.jpg

    This is a picture of the guitar from the internet, but it is the same colour and model etc. except obviously mine has EMG's.

    Okay so now I have that out the way...

    I was looking for an Ibanez guitar.

    I'm open to most Ibanez's, but i love the S,SA and RGA series'.

    6 strings OR 7 strings ;)

    Just leave a message or comment on this.

    David.

  17. Vocalist looking for band

    in Musicians

    Posted

    Okay so lets clear this up; by vocalist i mean screamer and singer.

    I'm after a kind of metal/screamo band.

    My main influence in my vocals are the devil wears prada, but i'm into all sorts of music. Architects, Parkway Drive, August Burns Red... Just anything really. However, the band i'm looking for is more The Devil Wears Prada kinda thing.

    I'm 15 years old, away to be 16 this year. Looking for a committed and talented band or some members to form one.

    PM me. :up:

    Cheers,

    David.

  20. Wanted: 7 String Guitar

    in Equipment

    Posted

    Okay so i've posted this before, but didn't get much reply. So thought might try my luck again.

    I'm looking for a 7 string guitar, nothing too fancy, but I want something fairly decent. Preferably something like an Ibanez, LTD, Schecter or along those lines. I prefer Ibanez, but I cant afford to be too picky I guess haha.

    I wasn't looking to spend too much, but I would be willing to swap... I have a few 6 string guitars, for example a Jackson DKMG and a LTD MH250NT w/EMG's!

    Give me a pm, or post on this or something. Hope I've explained everything.

    Cheers,

    David. :up:
