I'm not going to be able to bring my Ibanez Blazer of doom unfortunately, lent it to a mate for the weekend while I'm fixing his RG Prestige P.O.S which has bridge issues.

Ummm can't remember now. I got one of the Red witches off the forum, other one from trademe. Does the moon phase
do a Univibe thang at all ? Been tossing up getting a phaser or a Micro Vibe.
Yeah it does some vibe stuff but I'm not sure if it's UNI-Vibe territory. We'll have a play around with it tomorrow eh? the trem setting is cool but not mega versatile. Usable though. It changes the tone of your guitar signal though which I don't like but all the other settings are fine. Weird yet awesome pedal.

Well if you did decide to swap the Red Witch for an EVH please make sure it's my one. I'm keen on the slightly more 'uni-vibey' sound of the Red Witch. Although I have no idea how I'd fit it on my board. Would take some serious rearranging.

Yeah mate for sure. We'll see. I use it for the vibe sound more than the straight phaser sound more than anything.

Hey, I forgot to leave you guys some money for the room hire. Let me know how much I owe and where I can drop it off and I'll try and get it to you tomorrow.

Sorry about that!

No, no your eyes are fine. Do not adjust your set. :wink: I posted it in yellow to make sure people saw it.

I learned some things today.

The Bogner pwns everything.
The JSX is a great shreddy head.
I need a delay.
The Red Witch phaser does a very nice univiby thing.
If you hear an insane unholy squeech of fuzz and feedback beamed straight in from planet What-the-fuck, Ironbird will be twiddling the knobs on the OCB with a giant grin on his face \m/ :twisted: \m/

Well Ninja and I were a bit late and missed most of it by the sounds of it. But yeah, the Bogner sounded mint. Didn't get to hear the JSX unfortunately. Man, these guys play loud, I am deaf now and have a headache. Wasn't quite as into the Red Witch Moon Phase as I thought I'd be, but still a nice pedal.

Gotta say, Ironbirds' pedal board freaks me out. It looks wierd, it sounds wierd, but both in a cool way.

Mark 3 + Marshall's recto cab = OMG Ultimate tone.

Then Iain showed up with the Bogner to redefine tone (with some awesome delays courtesy of the timefactor)

Didn't hear the JSX but it looked cool.

Benderissimo's Fuzziebro 18 watt trem thing sounded awesome again as did the madamp!

Recto cab gas = huge. However I prefer my vertical 2x12" which is far less directional. But it doesn't have V30s Argh !

Ninja's Gretsch looked great again as usual and Mr. Sooty cranked out the strat chops of doom, very nice 8)

Can't wait for the next one. I think I've got the 18 watt bug myself.. :wink:
