NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

I've become a total Greco Geek! This one is an absolute darling! She's been around the block a few times, which just adds to the mojo. Plays like butter, as all Greco's seem to, and I think she is mostly intact, though I will look under the hood later this week and see if the pickup's are the origin...

EF8EBF69-93AE-47FD-977E-F5466F3AEF49.jpeg New incarnation. We’ve added a song called Spug Life that was crying out for a Wah (see what I did there?), so I grabbed a cheap Valeton one and named it SPUG Still trying to find the right drive, but out of everything I’ve tried, the Mudhoney is still my f...

Definitely a hardwood.

That's a pretty low level of dumb thing...don't beat yourself up too much. I was expecting something like, got caught with a stash, at my neighbour's house, nude, covered in peanut butter type scenario. That's a very precise, hypothetical scenario Grant. Do you think about this sort of thing often?...

Now I'm interested!

Yes, and have a really 'upright' bass sound through the pickup.

Solved!

In the post. Thanks 'The Family Music Store' for the great deal.

I’m working offshore these days and though, when we were along-side in Geelong, I managed to get a cheap acoustic guitar aboard, normally extra luggage is not allowed for helicopter crew transfers. I play bass nowadays and am really missing having a bass instrument offshore. I have spoken to logisti...

That really is a weak point - stand on a lead while plugged in and bang

No, no, no, no, no

The Q Tron has a send/return loop. Apparently sending the signal to a fuzz is cool. I'll give it a whirl.

Yeh, the flanger sounds much better after the comp and the QTron has been tamed.

I will give it a switch about and see.

The Cali into the Dark Glass alone sounds warm and fat! I like the flanger and the sub together - The Cute (edit, The Cure), Faith sorta.

I plug straight into the amp when playing live, but this is great fun for jamming and such.

Any tips on the order of effects appreciated.

Oh yes, the toe injury smarted a little at the time

Absolutely sexy!
