+1 I appreciate them too.

I don't think there's enough difference between a blues jr in a delxue sized cab and a hot rod deluxe to warrant having two different amps.

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong. I love and use guitar pro regularly for writing music. It's pretty flexible and very awesome. (There's also an open source version of it called Tux Guitar - I find the interface a little less intuitive, but maybe that's just a me problem because I'm so used to...

You can do that with the trio pedal too. There's a knob to raise/lower tempo. Just bang out whatever chords you want to play over to change the key. Chord voicings are limited though, I don't think it does any higher extensions of chords.

If you can, get a digitech trio. You play a few chords and it gives you bass/drums to solo over the chord progression. It feels more like playing with a band than just looping over your own guitar again. I picked up one a several years back for 60-70$ - they've been out of production for a...

I wouldn't think thin road case foam would get too close to the tubes, right?

To be fair, it's not all posts and clicks. In this day and age I think that an awful lot of influencers are being paid by people who benefit from the shit being spewed too. : P

That sounds like a cool, reversible experiment. I guess the idea is to kill some of the early reflections which tend to contribute to the boxy sound from small cabs? Wonder if it would slightly reduce the overall volume coming out of the amp because of the sound being absorbed by the foam, or...

Yeah, that was my guess because it sounded so much different from the neck one. The neck is like half way between a humbucker and single coil, whereas the middle is like 90% single coil.

Hey, I have that guitar! The Quarter Pounders work great with the bridge humbucker in it . . . although I think the quarter pounder in the middle is wound to only be tapped or something - it's much brighter and lighter sounding than the neck: Neck - full sounding and heavy, likes gain, good...

Yeah, there's something about the location that makes the sound of a neck pickup have that round characteristic. I'm guessing it has to do with the harmonics picked up from the location or something? Still cool sounds to be had with neck/mid though. If you're looking for bridge humbucker and...

Ha! I've done this before. Start playing a set and I'm like 'why does everything sound so weird' and tinny? Took me three songs to work out the problem. Really would be nice to have an LED on more wahs. :P

Material of a capacitor doesn't matter at all. I suspect that most of the comparisons people make between materials where they're hearing a difference it's really just a difference between value of cap. When you measure and control for that all difference drops out in my experience.

If temperatures in your work area are normalish, then usually overnight is fine. My dad was always picky about leaving things for a full 24 hours though when he built furniture . . . and none of that stuff ever came unglued. Way stronger at the glue joint than the rest of the wood.

more glue, and longer clamping time?
