Shout out to Templo Devices for the lovely packaging with this Pocket Comp! Happy to support a small Canadian company and excited to see how this little unit helps integrate vocals into my setup
So I could get a Muffuletta 6-in-1 #Muff#fuzz#pedal for $200 r/t $250 while they're on sale.
Triangle, Pi, Ram's Head, Russian, Ciivil War. I read that the mids vary. #GAS#guitar#effectPedal#GearSquad
@eyesquash
Muffs are a thing you either love or you don’t, an absolutely iconic sound! The different variants are voiced differently in the mids as you say, but they are all muffs! Don’t expect there to be more than 1 sweet spot on any of the knobs in any if the settings! It’s not a subtle circuit.
JHS pedals 20% off Memorial Day Monday. #GearSquad
They have nice things and interesting things, like a pedal with every Rat, another with every Tube Screamer, and another with six Muff circuit, or so I hear.
They have recreations of vintage fuzz pedals.
They have $99 pedals that are going to be $79.
Hmm... Muffaletta. #GAS
@optilude Cupcake. I quite like the design of the knurled one, but the very clean white seems to clash with the pickups and pickguard; in the opposite direction, the stratty knobs are too yellowed to fit in.
Today I finally got my hands on a Big Muff pedal so that I can ape the Siamese Dream sound. Hopefully it can make up for the pain of the past few days. I now have a Super Fuzz and a Big Muff pedal so I feel I have fulfilled a teenage dream that began with #Mudhoney Now to make some noise! #gearsquad#guitar#SmashingPumpkins#GuitarPedals
@DomSathanas hahahaha oh HELLL yes. I really need something like this for my bass again, I mean, right now I just run it through a little distorted guitar amp. But I want the sound of THESE again haha
Ok I have to ask: what’s the deal with Orange amps? I see them frequently online in guitar and gear Facebook groups and other forums. People seem to love them. I’ve never tried one though so I’m just curious. #guitar#gearsquad
@Theblueone@RuVerb@Cyrus@eyesquash I tried a 30watt head / cab combo at a California guitar store back in March. Looked great. Played just clean tones and it was fine. I prefer a Fender style 6V6 to the Marshall style EL34 circuit so take that for what it’s worth. I can’t see myself buying an amp with EL34s.
@NigelTufnel@RuVerb@Cyrus@eyesquash I’ve never been a fan of Marshall’s at all. Something in the tone stack that just hits me in some sorta synesthesia-like level with my fingers on the fretboard. It’s almost physically painful for me to play through a Marshall.
Ayyyy #GearSquad let’s talk about amplifier speakers today. What’s the best speaker you’ve heard or used? Size? What amp was it paired with? Tell us why it changed your sonic life. #guitar#bass#synth
When I'm not writing, playing or recording music, I like to pretend I'm a luthier. This was a recent kit build (not really a luthier) of a Thoman Jazzmaster guitar. Plays and sounds better than I ever expected.
Quick introduction now that I've moved to Mastodon Music.
Swiss-based musician - bass, guitar, key, vocals of varying competencies. Played in Sydney in the 80s, Brisbane in the 90s, Myspace in the 00s + a rogue folk-acoustic set somewhere in there, nothing at all in the 10s!, and now active again. Several solo, collaborative and band activities locally and in Australia.
Also trying to recover all my old friends after the unexpected move, so boosts appreciated.
Hey #guitarist s, has anyone had any dealings with Fulltone lately?
Yes, I'm aware that the founder has some odious political leanings, but the reason I ask is because I'm trying to sell this OCD pedal which lacks 2 of 4 thumbscrews. Last Friday I saw that they sell em on the Fulltone site, so I ordered a set. I got an automated "thank you, we'll let you know when we ship", and then...
nothing.
In my tea business, I never let 48 hours go by w/o shipping, so...idk. Ghost site?
If anyone is curious about how I made my latest EP entirely on the Novation Circuit Rhythm, here's a deep dive on that unit and some of the my favourite features (along with a few gripes)
