The LED is connected to a little pcb board on the bottom the of the switch so the LED is inline with the switch. You get it? :lol: I might just put more padding where the switch hits the pedal... Nope don't really understand, so the pcb is fixed to the switch? Sounds a bit dodgy if that is the case...

Go to the switch and screw the washer thing that is on the shaft down a bit (so the switch sits a bit higher - just a little bit higher though). Now stick it all back together - and the switch should be a little higher, and therefore you don't have to press down quite so hard to switch it. the 'was...

yeah schenker was fantastic, he's still pretty good but the recent stuff I heard is a bit too progressive for my tastes. One night at budokan I have on MP3 somewhere, I did buy the album originally... Saw him twice back in the old days, Gary Barden singing and Cozy Powell on the drums - sheer bliss ...

Flying V tone and I think of Shenker - awesome player.... and good for blues too - think of Albert King and Lonnie Mack.

Straight into it with a POD, why do you want a loop?

Walker Music in Papakura had a brand new M1r module he offered to me for $500 a year ago. Might still be there Just picked up a M3R for $250, got basically the same sound set - missing a few though. Also downloaded a patch/sound set that gives you about 90% of the M1 sounds :) Also got my eye on th...

oh yes.... my first ever synth, one I wish I'd never sold! Just been looking at rackmount versions - you can't beat the bass on a DX7 =o) There seems to have been a glut of late 80's stuff on trademe lately - its been giving me GAS badly. I'm trying to fill a 24 unit rack, but I'm only up to 5 units...

sometimes mate, though lately I've been stuck in the 80's groove with a new (to me) synth module I bought. I must be the only guy collecting 80's vintage digital synths _sigh_ wish I could afford some newer stuff!

yeah cheers mate! I can see that working well in the home, but I might go for the bigger option for stage use :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: Mono is good as I'm about 70% deaf in one ear anyway, thats why my guitar playing is so bad (honestly)!!

Hmmm, I do have a sticker on the back of my strat that says '40th anniversary' does that count?

I would certainly never sticker anything that I might want to sell one day.... what a bloody pain it would be trying to peel the buggers off.

ah yes but we've seen your 'taste' in pictures and you do own a skyline.... surprised there isn't a dragon in there somewhere or are you just not admitting to it? :twisted:
