Re: Tone Merchants

My assumption is that he started out as a distributor annd/or selling internationally and now retails here. At least it very clearly states “excl GST”.

We chat all the time, I’ll ask him the reason today if you like.

Re: Tone Merchants

Yeah, Brad the owner is a total legend. Got a fair bit of stuff from him and intend to get more.

I built one years ago but always wished I’d got a more gainy tranny for it, interested to hear how this goes! Will you be using it on bass? That’s the one. It’s destined for...

Deluxe Edition live in Greytown at the South Wairarapa Workies - 14 June

DXE at the workies (Facebook).png Finally, a gig! With venues drying up all over the place,we're very excited to be playing the Workies on Friday 14th June. Cheap beer, good food, live music - it doesn't get any better. I know there aren't many of you in the Wai but there are plenty of Wellingtonia...

Re: Bass effects!

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 ...

Re: Bill Withers Social Club

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!

Re: Insecure Delusion (TOOL tribute) - The Cabana, May 4th

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 ...

Insecure Delusion (TOOL tribute) - The Cabana, May 4th

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 ...
