Lurking, as per usual, but missed that post.

Yep, I have one and love it. Great transparent drive that doesn’t mess with your amp tone, just dirties it up and pushes it harder. I run it into an Aguilar Tone Hammer 500, and they work well together.

I just finished up the Phoenix Foundation tour with NZSO last week, so I thought I'd share a few photos of the gear we took out. A Maton SE777. Keith Richards used one of these to record Gimme Shelter. http://i67.tinypic.com/2ur5fs5.jpg Due to the orchestra, all the amps had to be isolated off stage...

I have been ratted out HOHO! So with Voxen, run it with gain below 12 and as much vol as you dare - best is to try and set the gain low enough that the bass response is juuuust kicking in and loads of vol to pummel the preamp - don't bother using it for brootz. Avoid a new bog standard Rat 2, You D...

My 2c, as a live tech who has changed more strings than I would like to remember. I know it seems to be popular, but I hate the lock-off string tie method. There is nothing worse when you are trying to change a broken string and get it back to your guy in the space of one song, than having a tie off...

That dog's expression is brilliant!

I really like the way they look! I really tried and I'm not usually so fussy about looks but this design makes my teeth ache. It's got a "It's 1970 and transistors will rule the world" vibe with all the horror that implies. Actually, it must be a good piece of design because it's sure got...

I thought it might be cool to do a thread of guitar rigs of some of the more epic Kiwi bands. Please chime in with any rig pics you may have To kick off - Shihad Phil Knight Orange AD30 with unlabelled cab: https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/hphotos-xpt1/t51.2885-15/s640x640/sh0.08/e35/11324229_1633...

Haven't seen this mentioned here yet: Morning Everyone. Last Night we were Ram Raided here at the store! 3 Losers have stolen a bunch of Fender Guitars, Spector Basses and RCF Speakers valued at $25k. Luckily we have all their faces on camera and their car regos. We have sent all the info to the Pol...

Hey guys, my friend had a whole bunch of her gear stolen from her car in Auckland (not sure what area) some time on Wednesday night/early Thursday morning. - Black Acoustic steel string guitar, with a cutaway. Johnson Model. - Black Gator hard case for acoustic guitar, full size. - 1960's Vintage Fe...

Nick Gaffaney (vocalist/drummer) really wanted to push CKF overseas, but Aaron didn't want to uproot his life here and be spending months on the road away from his family. Everything is cool between them, they've just headed in different directions.

He's great in that band too, isn't he

Aaron isn't in Cairo Knife Fight anymore. He has been replaced by Joel Haines.

They've got Dallas Schoo talking about it. Better go watch that video. :) EDIT: The video is classic video-edit marketing... and how do I imply that the Edge endorses this without actually saying 'he' endorses is. But "he can use it" Still, practically speaking, that's what Korg want for ...

I want this so badly.
