NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

oh that's a bit of a bugger! not well planned out at all, get the epoxy resin out mate, and stick a washer or two to the pedal. Do you use the LED at all?

I've never bothered fitting one to mine as its one of those effects that is pretty much obvious if its on or not.

The LED is connected to a little pcb board on the bottom the of the switch so the LED is inline with the switch. You get it? :lol: I might just put more padding where the switch hits the pedal... Nope don't really understand, so the pcb is fixed to the switch? Sounds a bit dodgy if that is the case...

Go to the switch and screw the washer thing that is on the shaft down a bit (so the switch sits a bit higher - just a little bit higher though). Now stick it all back together - and the switch should be a little higher, and therefore you don't have to press down quite so hard to switch it. the 'was...

easy to set up with a spanner....

yeah.... gold is a better conductor of electicity than copper, so it makes sense to use the gold inside on the important bits

Bang on there mate, J Geils and Wishbone Ash are soooo today and cut such groovy 45's.....

yeah schenker was fantastic, he's still pretty good but the recent stuff I heard is a bit too progressive for my tastes. One night at budokan I have on MP3 somewhere, I did buy the album originally... Saw him twice back in the old days, Gary Barden singing and Cozy Powell on the drums - sheer bliss ...

Flying V tone and I think of Shenker - awesome player.... and good for blues too - think of Albert King and Lonnie Mack.

Straight into it with a POD, why do you want a loop?

The amp has no bad points at all then

Walker Music in Papakura had a brand new M1r module he offered to me for $500 a year ago. Might still be there Just picked up a M3R for $250, got basically the same sound set - missing a few though. Also downloaded a patch/sound set that gives you about 90% of the M1 sounds :) Also got my eye on th...

any chance of lowering it, maybe fitting some neons and a great big park bench spoiler?

oh yes.... my first ever synth, one I wish I'd never sold! Just been looking at rackmount versions - you can't beat the bass on a DX7 =o) There seems to have been a glut of late 80's stuff on trademe lately - its been giving me GAS badly. I'm trying to fill a 24 unit rack, but I'm only up to 5 units...

sometimes mate, though lately I've been stuck in the 80's groove with a new (to me) synth module I bought. I must be the only guy collecting 80's vintage digital synths _sigh_ wish I could afford some newer stuff!

yeah cheers mate! I can see that working well in the home, but I might go for the bigger option for stage use Mono is good as I'm about 70% deaf in one ear anyway, thats why my guitar playing is so bad (honestly)!!

Hmmm, I do have a sticker on the back of my strat that says '40th anniversary' does that count?

I would certainly never sticker anything that I might want to sell one day.... what a bloody pain it would be trying to peel the buggers off.
