fertuiee Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Jeeeeeeeeeeesus. so cool!Ta man, it sounds like you'd imagine a Sunn to sound, its not anywhere near the higher end ones though, Model T, Enforcer, Sceptre etc.. like but its good! only problem is, its got a thermal cut off switch....hoping a fan ( an air blowing kind of fan not "a follower" ) will sort it out though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Gold Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Got this little beast in the post today - little USB interface with a built in condenser mic that is surprisingly awesome. Handles bass like a champ too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfer_Rosa Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 "Accidentally" bought a guitar which I have no need for on ebay while killing time waiting for the sampler I actually wanted, meaning I could no longer afford the sampler. Fuck. Still, I was considering putting together a similar partocaster at some point, so it's not so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 I got as an early birthday present a Fender Greta amp.Here it is with my American 52' RI Tele. The amp bloody loves it. I've had a couple of goes with it and I am dead impressed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 How loud is it? It looks great.It's not that loud, which is what I really wanted. Though, if you stick it through a cab, it could probably be used for a quiet-ish band practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Aye that's what I meant. Even with my dual terror operating on two tubes it's almost too much for in the house. Should maybe get one of those attenuator thingies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 Holy balls, that SG bass is beautiful man.this is awesome MattThanks guys, I'm liking it so far. No neck dive, to my surprise (grippy strap of course, probably wouldn't work with a shiny, slippy strap). Sounds similar to my Gibson IV but a little more gruff and growly, probably due to the pickups being a little closer to the bridge. Played it at Slains on Friday night and it sounded pretty good to me (the bassist it was connected to could maybe have been better though ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeno Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Chambered mahogany bodyKevazingo topWenge neck (25.5")Zebrano/zebrawood fretboardBKP Aftermath in the bridge, BKP trilogy suite in the neck.Seems to be missing the coil tap I ordered though and there is a bigger volume difference between the pickups than I was expecting given how similar they are in output (Aftermath is 14.7kΩ and the trilogy suite is 12.5Ω). It's not like a total mismatch of an insanely hot humbucker and mellow single coil. May just be because they are not calibrated as a set, don't know. I will email the luthier and ask about both. I can't fault the woodwork though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatboy Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 what was that post on facebook you put about you hated the other guitar or something, whats the scale length? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keeno Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 what was that post on facebook you put about you hated the other guitar or something, whats the scale length?Which guitar do I hate? I have a few... Guessing you mean the other guitar I have that he made. In which case I basically just said that reverse headstocks are not my thing. Don't like them aesthetically or from a practical point of view. Also I find the 27" neck on that one the upper limit of comfortable so if I ever have the funds to get him to make another guitar it would be a 25.5" 7 string with a normal orientation headstock!f you are asking for the scale length of this guitar it was in the post above. 25.5". It's basically an ibanez prestige super wizard neck (the same one as on the RG1620X) but he actually has made it a little thinner if anything meaning this is just about the most insanely fast neck ever in terms of both profile and the feel of the wenge.
