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...

any chance of lowering it, maybe fitting some neons and a great big park bench spoiler?

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.

yep, the one I had you had to cut the balls off, clamp it in the bridge, wind it round the tuners get it somewhere near then clamp the nut, then fiddle with the fine tuners. I remember I had to bugger around getting the trem height set too - I used to use a pencil with tape wrapped around it. Not a ...

Nope, no idea as I've added it and also the hardtail strat bridge - just in case.... you might have forgot to click 'add option' or the gremlins have been in! I'll go with the standard trem system on a strat - they are a bugger to keep in tune but if you lubricate them enough they work fine, or they...

can I choose 'all of the above' (apart from country and western?)....

"yeah we play both kinds of music in here mister. Country and Western." Blues Brothers...

I listen to basically anything, frequently... but my favourite chilling music is blues so I guess I have to choose that?
