the Guitar Pedal Thread
Ballard:
Only difference being that this is gonna be my primary/live rig. I could use the versatility.
Also my bedroom level is probably significantly below yours cause I live in a yuppie hole of a neighborhood in an apartment building full of lawyers and little kids. None of whom are cool enough to appreciate the rokk.

That's lame. The house closest to me is about ten yards away from my window. Apparently, some people can hear me halfway up the street when I play in the garage in the summer and crank my Deville to get it to overdrive naturally. Which I figured out a about a week ago that the reason I thought it's natural overdrive was muddy and shitty was because I had too much bass.
On that note, something that has always interested me: I've always wondered what other people dial in their EQs at.
Before, I used to have mine set as Treble: 10 Mids: 5 Bass: 9. Then I figured out that my guitar sounded a whole lot better both distorted and clean with it set at: T: 10 M: 7 B: 8. I also have the Bright switch engaged because I like to roll back on my guitar's volume a bit to reduce some of the buzz from my pickups, since I use a distortion right into a fuzz and the amounts of gain are pretty ridiculous.
What about you guys?

Man when we used to play at my old drummer's house (he lives on the third floor of a building with vaulted ceilings) we were once told that at band practice volume, we could be heard across the street in Riverside Park.
Mind you he lives on the western edge of Manhattan (the bustling metropolis section of New York you usually hear about) and the "street" in question empties out into a highway and is the divider between the end of the city grid and a sprawling park. So this is something like 50 feet down and 65 across.

That's some fucking loud Simon & Garfunkeling, man.
Seriously though, what do you play to merit that decibel level?
