Stomp clicking/popping ought to be a thing of the past - c'mon pedal people!

Do Newbies start with TC inflated Watts?

I’ve seen a lot of this guy’s pedals: they look well crafted and some great variations. Just the ones he’s retired (old version pcbs) are fairly epic.

Crikey - what happens if you turn them all on at once and play a note?!

I gallop using pinky-ring-middle in near unison to make the first two notes and index for the third. Tried three fingers and two fingers (the way Steve Harris does it) and it’s too hard!

Dang. Utter legendary riff machine.

Ooh, Breeders! Cool. good to see you back, btw.

Question: these solderless looms and preamps I hear plenty about: how do you attach the wires from the pickup(s)?

I think Number 6 means it isn't going to help his GAS problems...

The Super 5s look awesome; esp the satin? finish.

[quote name='pmjos' timestamp='1508438319' post='3392259'] I have an early NT Thumb Sixer and it weighs in at 11 1/2 lbs. When people see it hey say, oohh heavy - I couldn't cope with that. If I take out my Fodera which weighs not much more that a pound less - they say oohh Fodera want my kidney? I say its heavy they usually say that they wouldn't care. (perhaps more graphic expletives). My point is that unless you have a bad back, are very modest in stature or build or happen to be 83 then whole weight thing is utter nonsense. Ooh I'm a healthy man in my mid 40's oooh 12 pounds!, couldn't possibly carry that across my manly shoulders on a comfortable strap for a whole hour! Skinny little girls carry 18lb toddlers around all day on one arm. Jeez.....man up guys............ [/quote] Man up? Seriously.

I had a Yamaha RBX765A for 17yrs til the electricky bits packed up. I could have fixed it but was having a bad time and it went to the tip along with the guitar I got for my 18th birthday and practice amp.

Just looking at Paul's hands makes my ears melt. I can't imagine how scary learning parts for his tunes were.

Jim appears on the other forum too: usually with updates on new cleverness for the B-amp. It's great to see engagement of this level. I doubt berg will be the last foreign musical company to move direct because of that which should not be mentioned.

£600 pre-VAT is £720 - how much is it listing for here?

Ah - thanks for the update Bill : it's been a long time since I was on that side of the pond.

The same waffle from the group of reasons car manufacturers have used for decades to justify ripping the UK consumer off I imagine: err exchange rates, tax, distribution deals etc. I honestly don't know - it's very frustrating. And yes - US prices are all before sales tax: when online purchasing I think you only pay if you are resident in the state they come from. Or something like that. It does vary by State, County and City.

£50 less for 400 fewer watts and 2 fewer freq options? and 'how much?!' for the cabs. Like you say - you can get top quality cabs for less than that. Have DG been smoking what Apple use lately?!

Hey, welcome! Which part of Canada are you in? Is it snowing yet?

To clarify then: by saying the victims need to be more responsible, you are tacitly accepting this behaviour is unavoidable.

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1505917519' post='3375209'] I think the major thought process on this thread is that we all agree that these types of behaviour aren`t right, but we can all understand that they are unfortunately inevitable. [/quote] No - they are not inevitable. Saying they are only perpetuates the myth that they can't be stopped.

You are - by putting the onus of having to change or conform to reduce/avoid risk, you are essentially giving them the blame for something bad happening. There is no excuse for lewd comments or worse, none. There's a discrete difference between this and one person knowingly testing cause and effect of a criminal offence. The first ought to cause more bother for the perpetrator, but normalisation of its effects, frequency and attitude means it doesn't. Until millions of people a year try to photograph NK military sites, and tens of millions of others say 'it doesn't really matter, does no harm,' 'what were they thinking, placing their installations in that wide valley in full view,' etc. then it's not a fair comparison. And yes - however daft it might sound, you should not deserve or be asking to be robbed by walking about a rough part of town laden down with notes. That is exactly the sort of thinking that allows wannabe, impressionable people to think it's a suitable form of employment.
