    Is this a Fender Musicmaster?

    I have asked seller for more pictures/details. This is all I have right now. Headstock looks Fender, but that tailpiece looks non-Fender.

    What is your current recording rig?

    Thanks. I really appreciate the response. Yeah the saturations are different types. I can't decide which I prefer! Some days I love the tube sound, and then some days that 1073 thing just hits. Maybe instead of investing in one chain, I'll split the money into doing two. Of the 1073s I was...

    What is your current recording rig?

    How are you finding this chain? I'm trying to decide between this, and getting a 1073 clone and doing the compression via plugin.

    Effectrode LA-1A

    I'm thinking about getting an la-1a to go behind my drive pedal as an always on. It looks like it does the tube thing, gentle compression and can act as a DI. Has anyone worked out how to power it from a strymon ojai or zuma?

    Chase Bliss Automatrone Preamp MK II

    thread resurrection! I have one of these and love it. Right now its my only pedal, straight into an audio interface where I use vsts for compression, eq, etc. I'm slowly going to build a pedal board though. I think first up is the Empress Effects compressor that should compliment this well.

    Any tips on how to nail the Moon Safari sound?

    Hello all, Last night I got to see Air play Moon Safari at The Tabernacle in Atlanta. It was an incredible show. Afterwards I asked one of the stage management guys to take a picture of Nicolas' pedalboard. He did, and here it is... Nicolas played most of the night on a mustang - that might...

    CBA Automatone Pre Mk2 + Cali76 + ????

    Hi all, I only play at home, and have a pretty simple setup. The Chase Bliss pedal does all the overdrive distortion and eq that I need, and the cali76 makes me sound better. I currently run these into a J48 DI box which connects to an audio interface. I get pretty low latency so can run some...
