    When will you be legal?

    That is, when will it be permissible for your metal fury to be unleashed on the world?

    Complaining that there are hypocrites in church is like complaining that fat people use the gym. Where else would you have them be?

      I looked at your guitar collection you posted and also had a look at what made the 81 your favourite pickup. Since the Squier Bullet Strat, have you ever considered having a guitar with a single coil bridge pickup?

        Considering that particular strat was a Tom Delonge knockoff, it just had a single bucker in it. I've never owned a guitar with an SC in the bridge.

        That said, I'd killllll for a Telecaster for certain things, and absolutely LOVE the new Fender HWY-1 Teles with the giant frets!

          Ok, then I'll definitely recommend you to try one out extensively. Get a good deal used and then explore it thouroughly. I play lots of metal, being finnish and all, and I love the monstrous tone my strat with a fender CS'54 pickup puts out. To me a single coil has clarity, cut, punch and aggresiveness all more than a humbucker, and they can sound very big and thick with a good amp.

              economy

                Ahh - that was in the 'teachers' portion of the office. I TA for two of my old teachers, so I get to grade scantrons and make overheads in there for them.

                  In retrospect, what did you think of working with Evergrove? Be honest and don't be afraid to diss me if you need to. I wanna hear it all!

                    I felt the same way for the longest time... And then I finally did buy one of the new HWY-1 Texas Tele



                    AND IT KILLS!!!!!!



                    You need one, man. Mine is so ridiculously bad-ass. Thin nitro finish on ash, 1-pc maple neck, hot and chunky single coils and vintage hardware... but it's got a 12" radius and jumbo frets! All the classic Telecaster sound but it almost plays like a shred stick. It still fights you a bit but with that flat board and huge frets you can play legato all over it and bend like a maniac.

                    I flipped the control plate, put a 5-way switch in, and put a Barden bridge on mine and the thing just slays. It's the best-sounding guitar I own.

                      It wasn't that bad, in all honesty, and despite my untrained (at the time) ears and inexperience with recording a full band from start to finish, I think it came out pretty **** well!

                      Things I would've changed would be some real preproduction to hammer things out in advance, built templates for songs and do things 'properly.' I also would've liked to record drums in a real-ish studio, or at least with some better mics!

                      My current software/plugins/computer would've been nice, too... no technical difficulties that we had (although we didn't have all that many, IIRC)

                      Now... how was your experience, looking back? Be honest! I need to know what to change when I approach recording other bands. I have a feeling I was probably too metal-oriented with my approach in a lot of things.

                          Jeff, you have ... or had ... an awesome gallery of hot chicks in your photobucket.

                          Why haven't you posted any yet?

                          What is your favourite sport?

                          What is your favourite main course/savoury meal?

                          What are your top three non-music pet hates?

                          What are your top three non-music pet loves?

                            **** if I know! I had no clue what I was thinking, other than "this would probably look awesome.'

                            No clue! I thought girls weren't allowed? When was the last girl thread?

                            I really don't like sports, in all honesty. If I have to watch one or go to a game, probably football or soccer, but only because of the crowd, food, and friends I'd be with. I have no interest in watching sports for recreation.

                            Favorite main course... Jesus. Any kind of really good burrito is absolutely delicious. More 'sophisticated' food, though... I'm a sucker for any kind of really good fettuccine alfredo.

                            Hates: incompetence, people who don't know how to walk in/around crowds, improperly/over-reacting to situations.

                            Loves: rain, forests, subtly beautiful girls. I'm a sucker for simplistic beauty!
