LOVE that bassline. Good work!

Yes, and nor should you.

On the subject of BEF, I'm with Paulo. I had a really long play with one once, and couldn't get it to do the 'squelchy' sound I had in my head. Solid pedal, but envelope filters are an idiosyncratic bunch - almost like playing a second instrument at times.

Lead solder melts at a lower temperature than lead free stuff, which can in turn reduce the potential for ‘burning out’ the carbon track inside of a pot when wiring it up. The downside is that gives off poisonous fumes, and should be used in a well ventilated area. Be sure to wash your hands thoroughly afterwards too. My own ‘top tip’ for soldering pots is to ensure that they are fully counter-clockwise before you start; this limits the amount of heat that can be transferred to the track inside them, this protecting them. If you’re using lead free solder then your iron doesn’t need to be much hotter than about 220 degrees, lead solder will be fine at about 180/190.

Free and effective.

Zoom ms60b (and the b1-4 models too), but the ms60b outdoes them all as far as I’m concerned. The synth effects alone are worth buying one for.

PCB!?! Pffft, get it made on stripboard! 😀

Nothing wrong with favouring the root over fancy chromatics and fireworks. roll the tone back, palm-mute the strings with the back edge of your hand and play the strings with your thumb - gives a great DB like ‘thump’ with virtually no sustain, so if your note choice is ‘questionable’ then at least it’s less obtrusive.

Imagine being this much of a Sir Richard Head III. no time for him; his music is boring and he’s a bigot.

I must confess I adore the Mariah Carey ‘all I want for Xmas is you’ song. It’s everything I need from a festive bop; 12/8, sleigh bells, revoltingly cheery etc… Love it.

Mmmmm, I beg to differ.

That, dearheart, is because I forgot to add it. forgive me forgive me forgive me

I came across this article earlier; not content with decimating the income of recording artists, Spotify seems poised to start funding military AI research. https://mixmag.net/amp/spotify-daniel-ek-ai-defence-investment-criticism

dunno, I DO remember it having a whammy bar that he could dive-bomb on though. 😁

My brother had a charvel spectrum in seafoam green that was incredible to play. very well made instruments.

Great lines by one of my favourite players.

I think it's only right that Ampeg remove the 'Pro' suffix from this particular product.

Not sure they’d be any good for metal.
