NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

I now use a Whammy but it's only for Tool stuff really. I've tried quite a few others. If it's for a synth-bass type effect, you can't beat a Boss OC-2 or the OC-5's emulation of it. For general use, I think the TC Sub'n'Up is more than capable. Aguilar Octamizer is probably the fattest octave-down ...

A few shots from the night, along with an Instagram video link to a little snippet. What a night! Next stop, hopefully something at Valhalla... https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6mYoVwyhGZ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== ae1da044-5da4-4804-8625-f7d68e9a182a.jpg IMG_8399.jpg IMG_...

I think I would commit terrible crimes or debase myself in awful ways to be able to play in this band/'collective'. Sad to miss it!

Just bumping this up - hopefully some of you Hawkes Bay people can make it! Come and say hello if you do.

Wish I could be there. Do you guys do any tracks off Fear Inoculum? Do you guys tackle the synth stuff also? Nothing from Fear Innoculum yet but Pneuma is on the list. As you can imagine, there’s quite a catalogue! We’re essentially working album by album - starting with Ænema with one or two “hit ...

And, of course, a brief reminder that we aren't totally shit:

WHOA YEAH. That's right, we're hitting up Napier as part of The Royal Variety Show 6 at The Cabana. If that wasn't enough, it's also Star Wars-themed! We're one of ten bands ( :!: :!: :!: ) playing that night. I have it on good authority that we're on at 8.30pm on the main stage, so I'd consider us ...

Why thank you!

Anybody got a Sansamp BDDI gathering dust? Preferably a V2...

He is a builder so...

Thanks for the kind words! What the gear hounds and aficionados won't tell you is that 90% of the Tool bass sound is just smacking the absolute living shit out of the strings.

The other 10% is hideously expensive.

What diezel preamp is that? the vh4 pedal?

Yeah the VH4, I bullied him into buying it never looked back though! It's quite an incredible bit of kit.

Hey folks, my Tool tribute band Insecure Delusion had our first outing on Friday and I thought I'd share it here (hopefully the right place!) It's not particularly high quality but pretty decent for a DSLR camera. I'm on bass and was pretty happy with the tone! Best listened with headphones or good ...

Yummy! What’s your signal chains?? Thanks!

Both pedalboards in action at the studio on Tuesday. This is the longest they have been unchanged, but there’s a fuzz yet to be added, and plans for a bass delay and hopefully Justin Chancellor fuzz…

One thing engineers love - having full amp and cab sims on each board.
