[QUOTE=war_man333;41744825]can you get a fuzz factory and a wah pedal... in one? not looking for a new amp just looking for a pedal with built in adjustable fuzz and wah[/QUOTE] digitech made a multifx pedal called the rp80 that does fuzz, wah, and all sorts of other fancy things. you can get one for about $50
Waddup, I don't use my strat anymore. I was waiting because I'm saving up for a PRS Mira. Anyone own one or a custom 22 or something that can tell me if its worth it? My strat isnt exactly top dollar anyway.
[QUOTE=butre;41752511]digitech made a multifx pedal called the rp80 that does fuzz, wah, and all sorts of other fancy things. you can get one for about $50[/QUOTE] It does do those things but it sounds like shit, just a warning. I owned one for about 3 months. Though i suppose if you're going for a fuzz tone, clarity is not what you're looking for
had to slap some electric guitar strings on my acoustic. Love the sound, and it's also way less stress on the bridge.
[QUOTE=butre;41752511]digitech made a multifx pedal called the rp80 that does fuzz, wah, and all sorts of other fancy things. you can get one for about $50[/QUOTE] Cool but that does sound very cheap. Know of any pricier ones, something like $200? It's not like I want it to not be cheap but really, when it comes to this stuff it's usually where money = quality. Or could anyone just recommend a good wah pedal?
[QUOTE=TheDestroyerOfall;41756694]had to slap some electric guitar strings on my acoustic. Love the sound, and it's also way less stress on the bridge.[/QUOTE] last time i did that, my guitar sounded like a toy :v:

Hey guys, I'm new to the thread but I thought I'd share the new guitar I bought. I've been playing on and off recently for about a year (only played about like 3 years altogether). Recently I've been trying to stop that and actually get involved more so I bought a new guitar to reinvigorate my passion for playing. I restrung it with .10's and it plays perfectly. [t]http://i1.minus.com/jbdUjzsWCqjS44.JPG[/t] It's just a Gretsch G5120 but I've been doing nothing but playing nonstop and I'm really happy I purchased it (especially at $550).

My strat isnt exactly top dollar anyway.[/QUOTE] I own a P22, It's the best guitar I've ever played. You really can't go wrong with a PRS if you like the look and sound of them.

-snipping because question seems unwelcome-
[t]https://www.dropbox.com/s/iirgi4aj36ncap9/2013-08-09%2015.14.00%20HDR.jpg[/t] I bought a Hofner from 1962, cool stuff! [editline]9th August 2013[/editline] Or not, the picture won't work. It's my fifth bass, I'll probably have to sell one to have room for them all soon!
so a guy I know that plays in a groove metal band bought an azureglo rick 4003. I could never sink that kind of money into a bass without being sure that I know I'll like it and I'll keep it forever
this thread disappeared off my list well im back to tell you that i broke all six of my strings playing youth of america d'addario strings are good but not youth of america good
why didn't you just stop after the first one broke
because it was my g string and i totally could still play the melody on the d string

I could never sink that kind of money into a bass without being sure that I know I'll like it and I'll keep it forever[/QUOTE] I love Rickenbacker basses, I could just never put that much money down for it though. plus i cant slap well on them n i aint bout that
[QUOTE=thisispain;41780576]because it was my g string and i totally could still play the melody on the d string[/QUOTE] 4 years ago breaking a high e or b string wouldn't have stopped or hindered me one bit, Now if I break my high e it is game over.
You asses rated me funny, cheeky basterds :v: Ok won't bother any of you anymore with my shit.
i play a guitar with a floating tremolo when a string breaks the guitar drops several seminotes plus as long as the amplifier is loud enough youre still playing youth of america [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaUzYISKKAI[/media]

you block your trem how lame jazzmasters have a switch just pop that and yr good 2 go
I blocked mine as well and it stays in tune way longer. My old stratocaster had to be blocked as it would go out of tune all the time and it got quiet annoying having to retune the thing constantly.
[QUOTE=thisispain;41782915]you block your trem how lame jazzmasters have a switch just pop that and yr good 2 go[/QUOTE] Well I could just get a tremol-no but I don't ever plan on using the trem as it doesn't stay in tune AT ALL anymore. If I had the time I would fill the cavity and put a hardtail bridge on it.
Currently waiting for my new guitar thats been stuck at the customs office for a while now.. And now the E string of both my guitars snapped on the same day, so having a great day :v: Its a Dean Razorback Slime Bumblebee by the way.
[QUOTE=thisispain;41780438]this thread disappeared off my list well im back to tell you that i broke all six of my strings playing youth of america d'addario strings are good but not youth of america good[/QUOTE] the fuck, did you use a scissor as a pick?
you know razorblades are excellent picks [editline]11th August 2013[/editline] actually thinking of asking for an electric guitar for my birthday. I'd pay for it myself probably but it'd be one hell of a gift. October, so I have a load of time to think.
[QUOTE=thisispain;41780576]because it was my g string[/QUOTE] Of course, it's always the goddamn G string.
my trem doesn't go out of tune because it's set up properly and I never break strings [editline]10th August 2013[/editline] I had problems with my kahler going out of tune when I first got it but once I got it all figured out it stopped doing that
