I love Strats, more than Gretsch for comfort, and unlike most, I do not have a tele. I have two Strats one is the Aerodyne with a very thin fast neck and modded with the first-gen hot noiseless pups. Great sounding pups and plenty of growl when I need it and a 60th Anniversary MIM Strat, it has...
I’m surprised how sometimes a clean track will be a completely different setup than an OD track. I started and figured that what works for one works for all, which simply is not the case. Like others said I’ll use headphones and monitors to playback bits and adjust for each if I want to record...
Im a huge Peavey fan, got my first Tube amp because someone bought a Peavey Triple XXX Super Forty and brought it back saying they couldn’t get a good tone out of it. They didn’t realize it had mostly active eq. So on the combined crunch ultra channels you start with the eq at noon not ten or...
Looks great but nothing beat my 2 red FuzzRay! They must be good its the only pedal I have two of! Well, less you count a Jr Barnyard and and El Pescadoro as mostly the same then it also is worth having both!
I actually hate fret markers on the board side markers are ok but rarely use them and find my instruments, guitar and mandolin, not facing upward enough to see the board but when it is hanging or on a stand I look at it and then it matters to me. I’m sure there are just as many who can’t...
I do like the sound of that classic amp the pedal doesn’t sound exactly tubey to me but it is nice in its own way. I’m in no position to chase one now. After I pay off a new roof loan then I can get a bit more gear serious but can’t stop a person from dreaming! I think I will try and see how...
I rememebr this pedal coming up here a few years ago but don’t remember any reviews. Has anyone actually played this and thoughts? I’m curious.

Dialing back the heavy channels is what I do with my triple xxx, I even put a lower gain tube in it and it really tames the thrid highest channel. The mark series make that much easier to accomplish!
I know a man out here who has switched to Rainsong and it really sounds good. Someone will get a good deal for this especially with the tonewood amp. I love mine. I put it into my 000-18GE installed KK pute western minis. The tone wood amp makes playing with out an acoustic amp really cool and...
I’ve always had one bad eye and one really good eye to the point my right eye wasn’t 20/20 it was 20/05 near and far but my left for years was unable to read the big E on the chart and even when young it was just able to slightly see light and dark. Now my right eye picks ipa. Lot of slack and...
Very Nice! love the wolf head! Perhaps your a modern Lycan? ;)
Later this year I hit 57. I sometimes wonder how I made it this long with the body of a 30 year old athlete. Sadly God decided that this year I would age 27 all at once, at least that is how it feels!
This isn’t as fancy but more my...
Let it fade and wait and see. Dyed rosewood will eventually shown better as it fades. I have never understood why someone or company would dye their rosewood it is a beautiful wood in its own right but then again I can’t understand why someone would dye ebony either! Black on a board is so boring!
Funny thing, I never even considered a Gretsch guitar. I was sitting with my daughter and we were looking at green guitars, preferably a Strat, I love Strats, but stumbled ona. Broadway Jade Penguin. My daughter loves it and I considered it a sign. My daughters name is Jade. Hahahah turns out I...
I don't even know what a 335 is but I do know a Panther and would have one if I could. But to me its all Gretsch. Good Bigsby, Good bridge, Good headstock, Good pups, all seems right to me.
