  1. No issues with neck dive with my Jazz, its schweet...heavy though, you want neck dive, my nice new EB3 has it in spades!
  2. [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1329413114' post='1542163'] then why are guitar shops still full of people w***ing on egg slicers ? [/quote] Aarggh awesome! gotta go on the awesome quotes thread that!!
  3. I cannot possibly think of ANY gig where I might play that. I'm for burning it.
  4. Colin! I never knew you were on here, was talking to Carl Cupper about you the other day Russell
  5. Boss ME20B, had it for about 6 years now, usually set for compression only, with occasional use of octave, chorus, a wee bit of flanger, and some wacky delay for annoying the bandmates. Never felt the need for anything else.
  6. [quote name='ead' timestamp='1329396084' post='1541751'] For me there's a moment in Firth of Fifth (by Genesis for the uninitiated ) where the song moves into a sweeping keyboard (I know, I know) passage that for me really creates the whole atmosphere of the song. [/quote] Same song, but the bit at the end of the KB solo when Hacket swoops in with his sublime guitar work http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPf1zv93qjs from about 4.50 to around 7.00 the whole song just swells and builds, leaves me quite limp by the time the lyrics come back in ....and don't even get me started on Los Endos, also from Seconds Out.
  7. I love the solitude and the quiet, although THAT may be just due the the loudness of the music and the quietness of my car immediately after. No problems falling asleep, adrenaline keeps me going for hours, even when stuck on the M25 in the snow a couple of weeks back. Home..large Whiskey and a snack, and some crud film on the box while I wind down...luvverly
  8. Epiphone EB3 arrived this morning, in hard case, and what seems to be original cardboard box and packing too, well prepared, decent price and prompt too. Top man, would recommend to anyone.
  9. Two hundrd and fifty quid for MDF? naaah, I'll pass.
  10. I was in guitarguitar in Brum last week, had a nice Squier '51 precision type thingy, looked gorgeous, but I was only passing thru so never got a chance to play it through an amp. Might be worth a look.
  11. [quote name='leftyhook' timestamp='1329180094' post='1538547'] What about the monumental cock-up in Jean Genie by Trevor Boulder? I read somewhere that it was actually the guitarist changing too soon, and another that TB made 3 mistakes in that song on the recording! Still a great player with some choice runs. [/quote] Yup thats why you hear Bowie muttering 'get back on it' just before the first Chorus. Dopey singer I used to play with thought that was supposed to be part of the song, and stuck it in front of every chorus, used to annoy me no end!!
  12. Seth who? Macca I recognise...din't he marry a 1 legged woman?
  13. But..but..it was a CS....doing that to a CS is sacrilige, go mess up a normal Ric fine, but not one made in Homage to Mr Squire
  14. Nice Blog bud, I just bunged a John East Pre amp in my Jazz, Battery fits into existing channel no need for extra routing, great stuff. I voted Olympic white too, best looking of the three IMO. Good luck with the build!
  15. Oops I read that as price dropped by £400! Bit expensive for an Epi I thought if he's droppped it by THAT much!!
  16. LMAO! Planet Rock DJ just shoved that on FB...who copied who
