Kwaping:
Patrick - you swapped your bridge without changing the strings? You probably hard to work harder to NOT change them. :-P
Patrick:
You'd be surprised how much of a real bitch it is trying to change strings when you involve a Bigsby
Kwaping:
Actually, I have a Bigsby guitar and it's not really that bad. The key is to get a piece of foam or sponge and stick it between the string anchors and the guitar body. It'll hold the string ends in place while you put them on the tuning pegs.
KingOfIreland:
So I accidentally discovered that my dad and brother have been building me a 1 watt valve amp in secret as a fun electronics project and it turns out that it's a kickass little thing with a line out and oh god the hype train is leaving the station of my mind. Lucky, because I had a spare spring reverb unit lying around that I've now given them to use so it should have a vibrato and spring reverb and oh man I can overdrive my other amp with it or just record straight to my PC. Psyched.
Basically this, but the kit is by Vyse, not Torres, which apparently use somewhat better parts
On the other hand they're refusing to show me it until november.
Also going to hand wire my epiphone valve junior and put in a fender tone stack and maybe a master volume.
Detachable Felix:
Hah, that's amazing!
I need to upgrade my mics, so I can record a decent sound out of my amp. Old beast of a 450W Fender.. come to think of it, I need to upgrade my electric too- there's only so much you can do with a lawsuit strat..
