NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

i use 9s on my diablo, as it has a floyd, lots of ppl say 9s are better for it, and they feel fine, i use 10s on my other guitars. was reading back ppl saying they dnt reakon 9s wud b the go as they use heavy picks, i use 1mm nylon dunlop picks, i kno theres heavier but i dnt pat my strings, i let t...

oh yea, didnt kno that

talking about woods changing colour ash, im guessing the rimu will take on its normal "yellow" fade over time in the neck/head of the katipo? my mates got this real old coffee table(big!!) and he was going on how it was crap/ugly, woteva, i still dnt think he believes me that its made of r...

lovely, very nice indeed.

haha nice one ash

thats a nice thing to do for us leftys!!!

not interested tho

i would say keep the les paul, but then i saw the ash selection, i beleive it would b cool to have a "NZ Guitar" up there, but end of the day its the forum that matters not the main banner.

least its a tokia (least i remember it being a tokai)

i run tung sol in my jcm, it sounds dam fine, its fine providing you dont drop a overdrive in with it, i only use my amp distortion as its gutsy as ever, i find the tung sols in the marshall make the clean sound alot like slashes clean during gunners(or maybe it was izzys?) im running mullards in th...

you should enjoy the next one then BG, but no im not getting it in right handed,i'l stick to playing all cack handed, guys in the band struggle learning off me they reakon, dno why, its just a mirror image, i have no trouble with you 'normal' ppl

id post mine up, most of you's have seen it, goto ash's site, under diablo, thats a enhanced photo of mine, right handed thing looks odd haha, my next deposit looks good for another, awesome, cheers ash.

got an amp guru on the job, worse case scenario happened with the tubes, causing resistors to blow and crap like that, all that replaced, no shit i ordered a set on tung sol pre amp tubes, and a set of mullard el34s from the states on monday, and they turned up that friday(today)!!! i was stoaked, g...

ok this is my thoery, like u say 20 volts and theyed be melting? so the tube cant b getting 20 volts to it, the tubes are old and the pre amps will obvoisly need changing, so i reakon the reason its sounding like shit is coz the tubes are shot, thanks to uneven bias and now a bias i cant get right c...

i knew it was a JCM2000 thing, gonna have to get hold of clarry, had read about rossos DSL.

yea the tubes that originally gave me 20 volts gave the correct mV on the left hand side. i just removed C46 which many ppl have said screws them up, however by taking that out it read up at 80 volts on the right hand side, left hand side still fine. ppl have said to take it out or put in a larger c...

ok swapped the two left tubes with the two right tubes (ones i know that are good with ones that are"bad") there is nothing wrong with tubes. i have fixed many electrical things and i have a my flat mate cheaking it out as he is a instrumentation technician and is obvoisly not a beginner i...
