NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

My good friend Matt has been helping me build this and is somewhat of a knowledgable person on the finer side of acoustics, and sound design. We decided early on that we would follow the 'room in a room' type method which is exactly what it sounds like. You build a room inside your existing room. Ho...

It's been a full on few months because we recently sold our old house and my studio space went with it, and we purchased a new one. Which means I had to find a new space to convert into Grange Studio v2.0! I thought some people may be interested in checking out the how/what/why's of the process, so ...

Great stuff Vince, I look forward to having a listen! Releasing music as an independent artist is an awesome achievement to be celebrated

Not sure if they stock what you’re looking for sorry but I get all my strings from stringsandbeyond.com. They’ve always been great to deal with, and their prices are pretty extraordinary :thumbup: Hi Simon. So this works well with our exchange rate ect? Yeah I’ve found so and I’ve been buying almos...

+1 on whatever GrantB’s one is. I’m not often blown away by new amps but that one is an absolute beast. Not much clean happening but if you want tube-frying rock’n’roll then I’d recommend at least trying one out if possible

I just use the standard green Dunlop Tortex .88 ones. On electric and acoustic. Useless trivia: I flip the pick over between strums sometimes. I have no idea why, or when I started doing it. But I caught myself doing it years ago at a gig and gradually realised I kind of do it unconsciously. Weirdo.

I only use Herdim picks upside down. Beanie not included.

Any love for the Finn brothers out there? Absolutely. Though if you hadn't mentioned them I probably wouldn't be playing them in my head right now. I have Six Months in a Leaky Boat competing with She Will Have Her Way. She Will Have a Leaky Boat? Or Six Months in Her (way)?! Great, great songwrite...

The only thing that springs to mind was an original old big-box Rat. The one without any on/off light, and that had the backward controls. What a great distortion sound!
That’s it though really. Fortunately it seems I’ve got off (oh err) pretty lightly!

That looks great man! Awesome job

I think IEM’s take some getting used to as well. They’re probably one of the most practical advancements in live sound gear there is/was, but I really struggled when I’ve used them in the past. I’ll go good monitors wherever possible. However, I’d be interested in hearing an expensive, tour-grade se...

Here’s a full shot! As I said to Grant. Ugly in the best kind of way

Looks really great Beeg!! Awesome job

Looks great! Did you get yours from Stratosphere? Cheers! Yes indeed :thumbup: I got a cheapie from Ali (or was it fleabay?) but, as you can see above, it's very red. Yours is nice and brown. I just checked at Stratosphere and it quoted shipping price of $48! Yikes!!! Mine is probably a bit redder ...
