Coolness.

I'm gonna guess that per guitar, Ends has the highest average pickup output resistance on the boards this side of Fran's thundering fist.
What can I say... I like to party. I'm insanely happy with my gear situation right now... guitar wise I just want a tele-a-like and a shortscale bass. Oh, and I need new electronics form my acoustic/electric. The stuff in there right now is poo-poo, keeps fading in and out.
Oy -- how is the lil' Bugera treating you? I'm thrilled with my V55HD.

I adore it. I really really do. On the 5W setting I have this sweet clean warm fendery thing dialed in with soft reverb... sounds lush. Then when it's time to rock, I chuck it down to .1 watt and dime the gain and it's a fucking powerhouse.

Terrific little amp, sounds great through that blackheart 12" too.

I like those personally... but I'm hardly the guy you want on your side.

The fact that those are in a Jag-Stang is endlessly amusing though.

Ha! It was the only pickup that I felt gave the thing a personality. Everything else sounded kind of... empty in it. Plus, I was into silly music back in the 90's when I installed that. The Invader has been a winner in other guitars though, so I can't write it off as a just being a kid and wanting more distortion.

It's got a bit of a natural mid scoop to it, doesn't it? That's the only problem I'd have with it, sometimes I want to drop my mids, but thats what pedals are for. Having them always scooped would be a bit limiting. though I guess you can probably compensate with amp settings.

I never really thought so, but I guess it depends on your amp's voicing. According to Duncan it's focused on the bass and mids (B:7, M:8, T:4).

New pedalboard came in.

Here's the current setup, arion SD-1 has been removed and put on vocal distortion duties.

Next to be added; Dwarfcraft Robot Devil, Behringer Bass Overdrive, EH Memory Boy (which will kick the Fab chorus off the board). The Fab flange is really good for making noisey breakdowns so I think it'll actually make final cut now that I have room for it.

I can't think of a single other thing I'd need. My dirt is pretty well covered here.

Why is it that pretty much everyone owns gear that is worth more than my gear, car, computer and clothes put together?





Horrible rich kids like that Bobarsecake are ruining it for the rest of us
