Re: The Guitar Topic - B

You say you read TGP occasionally, but it sounds like you got the bug worse than me! :) Here's my latest board:
Radical AC:
Nah, I definitely like TGP, but I really dont want to spend too much on hyped up John Mayer tone seeking. I want to make noise :evil: The Klon thing is a joke (Though my name just came up on the Analogman King of Tone wait list, I am not sure if it is worth it to try out because of the price. At least for now I know I can flip it for a profit if I want to bother). Graduating in a week with my BA so I have been kind of celebrating. I made up a whole excel spreadsheet of different pedals I want to get so I can try and avoid (foolish) impulse buys. I went with the Memory Lane Jr. because I wanted a bucket brigade style delay with tap (and an algebraic 1200ms time!), but plan to pair it with a Skreddy Echo down the sound chain. Also, I bought everything with online coupons so it hurt less.
I love your Monsterpiece, is it a one off?
Kwaping:
Yeah, everything on that board except for the Launch Pad was bought used from TGP (or better yet, traded for).
The Monsterpiece is a Scratchy Snatch. Not a one-off, but apparently he drastically changed the design. The new ones look nothing like it! It's one of those "never gonna let you go" pedals, super versatile. The Hoof is smooth, the SS is snarly, and together they're... smoorly? But anyway...
I had a King of Tone and liked it initially, then got over it. It's probably really good for playing in a band context, but since the odds of me getting into a band are infinitesimal, I sold it. It drops the bass out of your tone something fierce, couldn't hang with that. Oh, and since the Prince of Tone came out, the whole flip-it-for-a-profit thing has pretty much gone away. I did end up selling mine for $15 over what I paid, but shipping ate that anyway. They're just sitting around in the Emporium.
Kwaping:
I do have a well-paying job, so yeah I can afford that gear. What I don't have is your freedom, musical ability, or time to actually play guitar. So don't feel so bad.
boneykingofnowhere:
The Klon makes a way better clean boost than it does an overdrive, IMHO.
