Re: Auckland Fest Saturday 25th July 2015 - LOCK AND LOAD

Sounds like I better turn up then! I will leave my '63 daphne blue strat at home though. I don't want you all touching it. Even just looking at it can devalue it. I keep it in box, you won't know whether it's a '63 or a squier, because it's both, and neither. At least until you open the box. Or some...

Re: Auckland Fest Saturday 25th July 2015 - LOCK AND LOAD

Hey guys - good venue - mainly since it's just a 15 minute walk away for me. So fill in a newbie on the deal? Just showing off all our latest gear and seeing what we all have? (You may have explained what these are all about but I got stuck at the word beer...!)

Re: You 4 string buggers are REDUNDANT (NPD Trio)

Don't be surprised - Hockey is totally fu***n Rock'n'Roll!

Yes the $399 quickly put me off. I may as well crossgrade my old band in a box licence to the mac version. In fact I reckon I will!

Re: You 4 string buggers are REDUNDANT (NPD Trio)

That's a shame - when will Wellington get a rink? Could do with a 3rd up in Auckland.

Reading up on the trio - maybe I should just spend less on stuff and more on lessons?

Re: You 4 string buggers are REDUNDANT (NPD Trio)

Way off topic, but I adore ice hockey. When I moved to Canada at about 11/12, I tried out for the school hockey team, and was pushed around, knocked over and laughed off the rink. For days after at school as I came into various rooms snickering would start about the stupid short kid from NZ who tri...

Re: You 4 string buggers are REDUNDANT (NPD Trio)

Still playing, I play ice, never did learn how to stop on inline skates! Hockey & guitar are pretty much all I do hobby wise. The trio seems a pretty sweet way to go, I actually had band in a box ages back, but lost it when I went to mac & the licences don't transfer. But even easier with th...

Re: You 4 string buggers are REDUNDANT (NPD Trio)

Wasn't expecting to find fellow guitar/hockey players on this site! And over 40 is a great time to be playing - show those young punks how it's done... Have to agree with the chap rooting for Tampa - but only because I am a Stevie Y fan (through my Red Wings fandom...) Back on topic - I do a lot of ...

Re: Forums have been slow, how about a 'In the mail' thread?

Cool, yeah that seemed to be a common complaint, though many said they got used to it. I haven't had a lot of experience with wahs and so forth so maybe ignorance is bliss will work in my favour!

I picked this up on TM: http://digitech.com/en/products/ex-7-expression-factory

Just awaiting delivery. Has anyone had any experience with these? I figured it would be fun to play with the whammy/synth swells/wah.

I have the head and cab, only because of the look. I think for practicality, if I was playing out or anything, the combo might be the easier option. But it's a great amp, super versatile.

Sorry, what I meant to say was... I am gassing for a tele - in particular one of the Sonic Blue Bajas. Are there many baja owners here in NZ?

Re: Show us your whole setup....

Hi Guys, Figured out the photo posting, so here is my humble setup (since this is my favourite part of the forum!) SG standard is my main guitar, with the Epi custom tuned down to D standard for fun. The orange micro terror is mostly an mp3 player, unless I occasionally fancy a bit of stereo action....
