  1. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    So now the 5150 II is up and running I thought I'd best do some fucking recording (fuck you Chris). But before that, I just happened to be browsing the Facebook market place and this cropped up. It's a 1986 Charvel 3B, which has been converted to an 8 string at some point in its life. I...
  2. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    I've been meaning to do this swap basically forever, but finally got a free day where I had the time to do the work while shooting video. tl;dr - not only do I love the PAF Pro exactly as much as I expected to in this guitar, I forgot how much I like the Blaze (the one in my UV is dying so I...
  3. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    This is NOT a production pickup, before anyone gets excited - I'd wanted one forever and got excited when I saw a few on endorser guitar spec sheets, emailed Dimarzio, but they wouldn't do it. However, one of these popped up for sale for only marginally more than a regular Dimarzio would go for...
  4. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    My calluses are not where they should be at the moment after a week in mexico and there isn't a god damned thing I can do about temperature here in boston in the summer, but this will have to do. Guitar, straight into my interface, no amp, no effects, no mix, nothing save for normalization and...
  5. Music: Other Instruments
    So in an eternal effort to nail "that" tone I sort-of-maybe-accidentally-got-back a P Bass I sold to Mr S a couple of years back. It still had the Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder that I put in when I had it, but I found a second hand pair of Seymour Duncan (Basslines, in this case, from before...
  6. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    Some random wankery clips of the 2017 Wizard MTL 100W in to a Wizard 4X12 with 2V30s + 2 H75 Creambacks... Audix i5 mic in to UA Apollo Duo Twin MKII in to Logic Pro X on a MacBook Pro: Guitar was a 2017 LP R9 with a Wolfetone BlisterBucker bridge (ceramic mag around 16.5K output). V30 was...
  7. Music: Recording Studio
    Ok, so I've been wondering what I've been missing. I got a 'warm audio tone beast'. Its supposed to be a lot like a 312 and I didn't want to shell out for a 3124+ (£2800, seriously?) or buy the PSU and case for one 512. I have a fireface UFX. Apparently it has competent, clean pres, according...
  8. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    Sorry about the quality my camera ( and audio) for pc is broken and not setup. recording from Iphone 5c. Best i can do is put my phone on top of the amp head so it is behind the speakers and it does ok. kind of like trailer park boys way of mic'ing a cabinent lol.
  9. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    Messed with this amp for a few hours this morning heres a quick clip. My ears are fucked and not sure if I got the settings I like, Im going to revisit the amp maybe tomorrow. https://soundcloud.com/boots-paul/hotrod-50
  10. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    Clean tones: Gain tones(incoming 80s chorus!): This is the sunburst Charvel mutt, AT-1 and 2 Virtual Solos, MXR Custom Badass Modified OD, NS2, Zoom G3 for effects. Cab is an Avatar Vintage 2-12 with a Swampy and a Tonespotter. Amp setting are visible in the 2nd video. Yes, I used my phone to...
  11. General Music Discussion
    I am really having fun right now, we're close to having the band ready for live play, and Zachary (singer) and I have been hard at work writing and recording new music. Here's a couple of extended clips from two songs we're working on right now. Neither song is done or perfect, but we're on...
  12. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    So this is a little late as I have been a little busy, but I figured you guys would appreciate this little badboy. This is a Driftwood Mini Nightmare, which is the little brother to the Purple Nightmare, and it's not exactly a mini amp in features or size for that matter. It's kind of in...
  13. Guitar: Tech, Electronics and DIY
    I bought an Ibanez JPM100 P2 and P3 recently, and the P3 (which is very beaten up) sounds drastically different to the P2. It sounds like single coils, not humbuckers. The output jack was a bit funky, so I just replaced it, and hoped that'd fix the issue, but it hasn't. I actually quite like the...

  15. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    I got Adam to jam together a set of his new pickups that he designed. There lower out put a little hotter then a PAF I forget exactly what they. I'm loving the fuck out of them. I'm not the best guy to be demoing stuff but maybe you guys can get an idea what these sound like...
  16. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    I have heard only the Youtube videos from KR7 but does anyone have properly recorded guitar tracks with this amp?
  17. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    These actually came in a while ago. Got them from Leon. Came with strings. :yesway: :lol: They sound quite nice. Much more full bodied than the 18v 85/81 set I had in there, and I had the 85 in the bridge and the 81 in the neck. The 57 has a more pronounced midrange and a much smoother...
