Re: gear :D

Upgrades! I've just upgraded my MB, CPU and Ram. Was still on XP. Too cheap to buy Windows 7 while Windows 8 is free. Only problem is my WIFI card doesn't have any drivers that seem to work perfectly, the one I have sometimes just randomly stops working, pain in the ass!

Re: 'Bonding' with guitars

I will never sell my Radian Tele, I didn't order it or anything but as soon as I played it I knew it was made for me. Plus the countless hours I have spent with it on my lap. If I lost one of my hands in an accident tomorrow and couldn't play anymore I would still keep it, its that much a part of me...

Re: NPD KLD Rat Clone

Cool man, I've thought about buying one of these, would love some sound clips :P My mate use to have a Turbo Rat and I loved it through my Samick amp (was way before I found this forum). Recently built a Rat clone with the help of Rocky but it just doesn't sound as cool as I remember. Might be becau...

Re: Your Top 3 picks of Acoustics for a Budget of $1500

Went into another music shop today (think they are part of music works) and they had a Yamaha A1R and A1M. Didn't play them but I will next week, looked quite nice.

Re: Your Top 3 picks of Acoustics for a Budget of $1500

I've got a question for the acoustic gurus, what difference does the cutaway make other than being able to play the higher frets? Any noticeable tone difference? And how often do you play frets that high on a Acoustic??

You pay more for it right??

Re: Your Top 3 picks of Acoustics for a Budget of $1500

It does sound like fun too and I'm off to Tauranga on saturday will convince my other half to drop me in to the RockShop for a visit. :D Make sure she's not picking you up for a good half hour at least. I was just going to try a couple over 10mins maybe but ended up spending my whole lunch hour the...

Re: Your Top 3 picks of Acoustics for a Budget of $1500

I went into Music Planet last month and tried a few acoustics, the cheapest Martin was my fav but was also the most expensive one I tried, was $1200 I think.

You should just go in and try them all, great fun and the staff will help you out as well.

Re: NAD Valve Junior

Oh it's the combo! Nice! I was going to pick one of these up a few years back but the RS had sold out of the combo, the head sounded awesome though.

And yeah 5W is still plenty loud enough :D

Enjoy :)
