Re: What's in your mp3/cd player right now?

Michael Jackson?

Eek.

I can see Jackson 5 for the fun/nostalgia factor, but not Mikey.

At any rate, I'm listening to something impossibly obscure, a group called Morella's Forest, indie rock...

Re: Your Musical History

During my undergarduate college days I didn't play too much guitar. I still had my crappy Sears electric guitar and my acoustic.

I taught school for a year and lived at home, giving me enough...

Re: Fender 75?

This is a Rivera-era amp (he worked there before founding his own amp company) so it does more modern sounds than traditional Fenders. Google can be your friend:

These amps were often referred to...

Re: My Vintage Guitars

It just occurred to me that the Duo-Sonic posted first above wasn't really my first guitar, but my first electric guitar. I got my first guitar, a no-name MIJ acoustic while I was in junior high...

Re: Your Musical History

Well done Mr. Beers!

Though we'll expect some amplifictaion (pardon the pun) and additional stories from you as we go.

I'll start with my early pre-band history.

My dad was a career US Navy...

Your Musical History

Reading and posting in the "What's in your mp3/cd player right now?" thread I can see we have a lot of varied musical experiences and tastes here. And in the "Promote Your Band" forum we can see what...

Re: What's in your mp3/cd player right now?

That's right. And that's the version of the band that's the most well-known, with Rollins on vocals.

Oddly, however, Rollins wasn't the original vocalist, and he has said on more than one occasion...

Re: My Vintage Guitars

Today's selection is "the one that got away." Of all the guitars I've sold, traded, or lost (to theft, I've never actually just "lost" one before) this one is the one I kinda miss.

Re: Roland JC-120 JazzMaster

Interesting, I've never seen it referred to as a JazzMaster before. Usually they're referred to as a Jazz Chorus™, which is what the JC stands for.

At any rate, good for cleans, take pedals...

Re: What's next.... a four humbucker guitar?

I like how it has all the notes on the fretboard so no matter how... disoriented the player may be, s/he can still find the right spot on the neck.

This topic reminded me of the old Hamer...

Re: Pickup's-So many good ones out there. Whats in your Axe's?

That'd be a ton of work to upgrade a guitar that's at the bottom of the Epi food chain to begin with and whose worth will be forever impeded by the bolt-on neck.

Why not just get a G400 to begin...

Re: What's in your mp3/cd player right now?

They're kind of like a cross between early poppy punk (like Buzzcocks) and garage. Have you ever listened to Little Steven's Underground Garage? It's a syndicated radio show and also archived on the...

Re: Pickup's-So many good ones out there. Whats in your Axe's?

I've seen this about the DD HB's. Opinions all over the place, it may just be that they're inconsistent. Oddly, the DD P-90's seem to get consistently good reviews, those are the ones in my Schecter...

Re: Pickup's-So many good ones out there. Whats in your Axe's?

Yes, I'm pretty sure a HB is wider than a P-90, but not as long, so it is necessary to rout to put regular-size P-90's in a humbucker slot. However, if you have a "large guard" SG that shouldn't be a...

Re: Pickup's-So many good ones out there. Whats in your Axe's?

Yeah, I have yet to be able to play the P-90 Strat with a band, which for me is the true test, but I like the GFS P-90's fine. I believe their HB-size P-90 is called the "Mean 90." People over at H-C...

There's a backstory to this though.

Re: Pickup's-So many good ones out there. Whats in your Axe's?

I guess I should add I now have a pair of GFS (GuitarFetish) P-90 pickups in a highly-modded Bullet Strat as well.

They sound fine to me. Then again, I think humbuckers tend to have the greatest...
