i didnt get anything, i bought 2 sonic youth cds and a dvd for a christmas present... that left me with 45 euros.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 12.22.2006 07:23 PM

I didn't get anything either :(

The microsynth sold before I got there. I tried out a stereo pulsar- that was a pretty cool trem, but I didn't know about it. Also tried out a stereo clone theory but it was really hissy when engaged.

Call me a pawn-shop warrior.

Danelectro Milkshake Chorus
RockTech PHR-01 Phaser
DOD American Metal FX 56 Dist (which I've barely used since buying... pos)

Mostly, I just crank the gain on my amp and go.

The Jap Jazzmasters are like $1600 aren't they? I see Jazzmasters for around that in certain catalogues etc, and then see Jazzmasters in others for around $3000 or more. So I gather the latter are US Jazzmasters.

I've wanted a Jazzmaster for many years now, but I think I'm going to save up and get a Jaguar or a Mustang next. Most likely Japanese. My '72 Telecaster Deluxe is one it's way to me. They're fantastic guitars and only made in Mexico. I'm really into Fenders at the moment.

My Japanese Jazz as of... last year. I should take more pictures of it.

Savage Clone 01.01.2007 08:38 PM

Nice guitar.

I haven't shared any gear porn for a while; these pics are from a camera I just got and I'm none too adept with:

Amp/guitar
 


Heads
 


Some of the studio

Whats up with your amp setup? The one marshall major isn't loud enough? And ive always wondered: what does that do plugging in a shorter cord to your other inputs?

Danny Himself 01.01.2007 08:48 PM

Your amp is nothing short of ridiculous.

In a good, Spinal Tap sort of way.

Jap Jags/Jazzes go for about $600-700. I've heard of people in the us ordering from Fender Japan and getting fast good service. They make some interesting hybrid Fenders that aren't sold here.

It's not actually a "stack;" it's two amps stacked on top of each other. The 50 Watt one (black one) goes to the bottom cabinet; I like the mix of the two amps because the Major is super clean and the other one breaks up some. Gives extra meat to the clean sections. That 50watt rig isn't even mine; it's sort of a longterm permaloan situation with one of my friends. I'd buy it if he'd sell it to me, but I think he wants to keep it.

Jumping the channels like that just enables you to use both volumes simultaneously; one for a "darker" pre-gain and one for a cleaner post-gain.

Norma J 01.01.2007 09:03 PM

I often wondered that too, and I still don't understand.

Savage Clone 01.01.2007 09:22 PM

I'm not great at explaining this stuff. Sorry about that.
Basically, it enables you to use BOTH input I and input II instead of either I or II. Channel II is the "dark" channel and channel I is the "bright" channel. By jumping them I can mix the two together.
