Re: Amp levels at gigs (pub size)

It is a matter of taste, but it's also important to think logically. A big powerful PA is able to somewhat 'fix' a shit on stage sound. Say your hero guitarist is 3 times as loud as everyone else, if you got a big sound system in the venue with everything miked it might not be too obvious in the cro...

Re: Amp levels at gigs (pub size)

I've always worked on the idea of getting a good stage volume for the band, and then foldback basically just needs vocals - maybe bass as well for the drummer. Whenever we did soundcheck we basically got our stage volume right then leave it in the sound guys hands to do the rest. Being too loud on s...

Re: NGD - Tokai Tele

That's stunning, how much did it set you back if you don't mind?? Similar price to MIM fenders etc?

Re: What are you loving right now?

Hell yeah I haven't found a new band I like in aaaaages especially rock n roll, had been listening to heaps of Radiohead, Wilco etc in terms of modern music. Rival Sons inspired me heaps in the last few weeks. Here's another band I found which I like, Swedish band called Graveyard - a bit more heavy...

Re: Show us your whole setup....

Cheers fellas yeah it's an AC30CCH so pretty craptastic chinese circuitry but hell they are still fantastic sounding amps, and I reckon one of the more versatile amps around. I played a combo really loud once and decided I needed one. As much as GAS attacks me from time to time, I've honestly never ...

Re: Show us your whole setup....

Current setup, my Squier with G&L electrics. Doesn't sound quite as good but I like the way it plays, and looks cool too. Chucked some castors on the cabinet, ready for action this weekend 8)

Re: Reverend Gats

Right gas got me I'm going to start saving for one of those Sensai's. Not sure whether to go for the tobacco burst or the satin red with those fancy pickups - so damn hard to find good video reviews for guitars, it seems to me that the yanks who actually put together a quality review think the only ...

Is anyone bringing these in still? I knew a couple of years ago Music Planet was stocking them. :think:

I'm itching for a new guitar and this seems to be the only company bringing out interesting designs that I like

Re: Show us your whole setup....

It sounds great, awesome combination of speakers. I bought the cab with two facked speakers for like $100 a few years ago, really badly built out of heavy MDF or something, I do like how they used the front off an old fender cabinet though :lolno: One day I'll build a slanted 2x12 out of decent ply,...

Re: Coated strings - yes or no?

I use elixirs on my acoustic, wouldn't ever use anything else. They are bright and clean sounding which goes well with my dark toned guitar and I honestly get 5x the life out of them. Haven't actually tried them on electric guitar but reckon they wouldn't go dead as fast. Expensive yes, but like I s...

Re: Firebirds

I've heard good things about Tokai, though they may have been their older copies? The current Epiphone reissues seem to get good reviews, solid mahogany, set neck, those fancy steinberg tuners people rave about. I may see if my friend still has his and if I can borrow it for a play through my rig. O...
