Eupraxia Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I think that twelvey formerly belonged to me. It has a great twang to it. I never got the opportunity to fire it up via a decent tube amp, though. On more than one occasion, someone approached me post-gig to say "Hey, that's a really nice rickenbacker you have there!". Idiots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idiots.It's really nice. I had a wee shot of it and had to have it. It absolutely sings when you feed it hefty amounts of reverb and delay.

Eupraxia Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 It's really nice. I had a wee shot of it and had to have it. It absolutely sings when you feed it hefty amounts of reverb and delay.It really, really does. Nice bit of kit if it's the sort of thing one is after.It responds brilliantly to the Ibanez TS9 Tubescreamer too, especially if you want that satisfying immediate crunchy tone.

colb Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I didn't really get on with it, I was looking for a bit more jangle (Jan did warn me that it wouldn't really do that mind you) - but after hearing you two get all moist about how nice it sounds I think I want it back!

I rarely used it for chordal work - almost always picking out notes or melody lines/arpeggios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest E.C Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 poor quality photo lifted from eBay, but I just bought this snare drum. It's a 30-ply (count 'em) Hollow Body 13 x 5 custom snare. Not sure who makes/made it. Black lugs (obviously) and the snare strainer is made from some cute red ribbon stuff - awwww!The hollow body gives the snare a pretty cool 'reverb' sound which I'm excited to wrap my head around when it arrives. All finished in an outer shell of Zebra Wood finish. Lovely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I've been messing around with my ODB-3 pedal as a guitar pedal. It sounded ace when I started playing Pixies - Where Is My Mind. It sounded almost exactly the same, but the way I had it set up I couldn't get a decent chug. I will mess further with it was beautiful for some screechy lead guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murrr Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 My newly-condensed set-up:-Epiphone 1966 G-400 Pro -> EHX Big Muff Pi w/ Tone Wicker -> Orange Micro Terror. Nice, simple and riffy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flights Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I've now added a Big Muff Pi Classic and a Marshall Echohead delay to my setup. I'm like a school kid at work today, can't wait to rush home and play guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flights Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 How many delays on your board now?It would be four but the echohead is replacing my echo machine which I'm giving to our bassist so she can bring in the drones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
