    Purple rail pickups?

    I shot the custom shop an inquiry about custom Jupiter 7 in purple, but they only go as far as black/white. I am doing a swamp ash with purple grain fill build and really want the pickups to be purple too if I can make that happen. I know Dimarzio makes colored versions. Any others come to...

    El Diablo with Ceramic or A8?

    I've played an El Diablo. And I've played the SLUG. My favorite pickups are Jim Wagner Ironmans. But I've also loved the El Diablo. One of my favorite versions of the Ironman was with an A8. So I'm thinking of asking Duncan to make me an El Diablo with A8 or Ceramic for varity lol. Anyone...

    Revised Wall of Deaf

    Went mostly Marshall Cabs now. Bogner with greenbacks and 90's 900 1960B with Vintage 30's under my Egnater class amp. 1960B with Marshall Vintage 30s (crisper and mids moved up a notch, perfect with the 800), and a slightly rare bird; the JCM800 bass series 2X15 with Celestion Full Backs...

    Been gone a while... This is what I play now lol.

    In a world of modelers, low wattage amps... Combos and gasp... The strange return of multi-fx... I bring you the wall of JimBob. Yes... I gig with this... I'm 34 and lazy AF too. That's why I pay others in beer to lug this stuff hahaha. Marshall has 2 parts swapped for a pinch more gain...

    NPD (WH-1 Whammy)

    About this time every year... For some reason... I buy a whammy pedal. I've had them all. The 2, the 4, and the 5 (twice) and even the bass whammy... But this year I found a great condition first generation whammy. While the differences between this and the 5 are small... They are there...

    NPD--- Mesa 5 Band EQ \m/

    Scored a like new Mesa 5 Band EQ on ebay. Wanted one since they came out, but they're expensive for an EQ... But... WORTH IT! Somehow, this eq is both subtle and dramatic at the same time. I run it in the fx loop of my Egnater 50 watt Seminar amp btw. The classic V scoop is pretty awesome...

    New Custom Cab Day!

    I love the tone of 15" speakers for guitar... They don't really make more lows than 12" speakers, they just have a sound that is all their own. I also of course love good 12" speakers... They are the standard for a reason. So... I found this guy in Richmond who makes any custom crazy cab...

    Running effects AFTER the mic'd signal?

    Anyone have experience with running some effects after your mic on the guitar cab? Like going from your sm-57 to a chorus then the board? I know standard guitar pedals don't usually work well, but is there a unit I can use to put a bit of chorus on my mic'd signal incase the board at the venue...

    S&S Manly Beast Klon Klone FS/FT

    A great klone from S&S Amplification. I literally bought it for the name alone lol... I just don't use overdrives and it's sitting. It has sprague caps and I liked it better than my Aluminum Falcon II and the KTR I had. It's quieter and seems like an extension of the amp. Always turned heads...

    Analogman Chorus Pedal FS/FT

    I've got a unique Analogman Chorus pedal available. As you can see, it's inverted! Apparantly a mistake happened and they accidently released a few of these. They are otherwise standard chorus and work flawlessly. Great if you love that thick swooshy vintage small stone style chorus. Asking...

    Got the Tele Bug... What is a good one for about $500?

    I played a friends Squire Tele last night and was actually pretty impressed. I was kinda taken back by how this 'cheap' guitar played and sounded... Played almost as good as my old faithful gibson explorer. I havn't even looked at fenders in years... So I have no clue as to what is a good...
