Soooo, get a new amp, loads of power, hook it up....and my ears haven't stopped ringing for 3 days. High pitched whistle all the time.
Dumb, dumb, dumb. 
Feel free to abuse me, I deserve it..

| Why should we bother - you've abused yourself without any help from anyone else!
Just remember one fact: you can't be a decent musician without ears.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Montreal | | | The best part about tinnitus is that after enough times getting it, it never goes away. And fun stuff like beer, coffee, motorcycles, and even exercise like riding a bike make it wayyy worse. As amusing as the ripping Db and E thats constantly screaming in my left ear is, I really need a DeLorean and a flux capacitor to go back to 1991 and smack some damn sense into young, dumb me. Front row at Slayer was in no way worth it, even though it was pretty badass. |
