There are two albums and the band is "Jello Biafra and the Melvins." Released in like 05ish? I could find you a torrent.

This would be the ultimate well if people would stop ignoring it! hahaha

Re: The Well LXXXV (i guess?): How to Rock featuring Xee F. Face

Nay. Not into the 'modern guitar' thing...tons of curly maple, EMGs, abalone...i mean they're not bad quality and they have a few good designs...defintely nice for the money but...i've always preferred Fender and Gibson to basically everything else.

1. No i like seafood and nice furniture. I jus don't like Schecters.

2. Redesigns are great for sure...there are millions of ways to make a great guitar...but i like nice solidbody Les Pauls and Telecasters with normal single coils...ES335's for semihollow tones... etc.

3. What? I mean...huh?

4. Never tried Eastwood, and Electromatics are spotty at best. I had to get one customer three replacements for his G6120 because each one had stupid problems right outta the box...

What are the perks of working at a music store?
Does the store throw out gear? (broken or otherwise?)

I remember reading a thread here some time ago about someone who went through a music store dumpster and found some stuff. JW.

Re: Q

I actually used to prefer treble to lowend when i was playing more punk and ska...in those types of bands i was either just doing the barre chord upstroke thing or the DS-1 Green Day kinda thing and had a bassist tryin to impersonate Matt Freeman the whole time so my guitar was more aimed at the high / high mids.

what kinda gear did you rock when you played this stuff? it's all i like to play these days

This Amp range is older than you and one of the most popular made. A lot of people would/do use one of these with a "dirtier" amp as well. They still do.

Perks? Discounts, occasional freebies, connections, paychecks, first dibs on cool used stuff, and gettin to talk gear and music with gearheads and musicians all day every day.

When stuff breaks we usually finish breaking it and give the parts to the tech guy. I almost bought a epiphone dot that the head broke off of a few weeks ago but "cost" is still more than "free" for a broken guitar y'know?

The same stuff I use now except i didn't have my Gibsons back then. Strat -- DS-1 -- Bassman half stack...

Y'know, if it's not broke, why fix it?

Never said I know everything, but I DO know what a ****ing Roland Jazz Chorus is. We have one in my shop and it sounds dull, lifeless and sterile. Great for an 80'sesque clean tone drenched in delay and reverb, bad if you like to sound good.

When I want a clean tone, i like a Fender Deluxe or possibly a Twin or something along those lines...something that has some kind of feel or response. That Roland is way too surgical for me.

So you're 50 something so you know everything right? Cuz this amp line is older than you are and tons of pros still love them:


and they don't sound like boring lifeless crap either

EDIT: Sorry if that response seemed kinda edgy / ********ed. I'll try to stop posting on the forum before getting out of bed.
