Hey Jan, did you get to hear that new peavey minimega?

Also I'm super jealous of P-Funk.
I think I'll queue up Maggot Brain for today.

I heard a version of it last year at the show and again in April at Peavey HQ, didn't listen to it this year. I remember it sounding good, but didn't really get to turn it up or play with it. It was being used in a blues band at the Peavey training, but that was also going through a huge PA so I'm not sure what was the amp and what was the PA.

I'll say it again, P-Funk was incredible. THREE BASS PLAYERS.

Pretty sure I've decided to get a Pharaoh Supreme when I get the scratch together. Which place typically has the best deals? I've been to Prymaxe, but they apparently don't do all deals on Blackarts stuff when I checked the fine print. Rogue Guitar Shop? Any info is appreciated!

So when they are having one of those 15 or 20% off of effects sales you can enter the code on the payment page for BAT stuff? Bummer. Well there are always someone flipping on here, Reverb, and ILF to save a bit. Newer product so you might have to hang in there a bit but then again you might have a GAS attack...
Edit:
Yep I see what you mean. For shitz and giggles I slapped a Supreme in the Prymaxe shopping cart and entered the sale code they are having and it said it wasn't valid, bummer.

Yo dudes, day two on the dole. Don't start new job until mid-Feb. Enjoying some decent late-Jan weather with a trail run. B-prac was solid last night, it was good to get back to full fuzz, filth & volume after the acoustic spell. After the last gig, I decided to keep the Boss chorus on the board for a while.

The last pedal I have left from my first pedal board is a Boss CEB-3. There doesn't seem to be allot of love for them but I've always dug mine.

I put a .120 set on my brown ric for drop B and it was nice, but when I tuned it up to drop c the neck bowed. I have a .110-55 set on the white ric and its doing fine. Vintage necks for Rics do weird things and I alway try to play on the safe side. I still have a circle k .118 drop set that worked on the brown ric, string brand also plays in the equation I suppose.

yeah i think with C standard i'll be playing it fairly safe with the 120-90-65-50 set if i'm already very loose with 110-85-70-50. neck on the azureglo 4001 is bowed slightly at the moment but i blame my action change and the weather getting really shaging hot this year and leaving it in storage without temperature control. putting her in soon for a setup for a new bridge, new nut, addition of a pull bar and treble bezel, full setup for new string gauge and a phase/polarity flip switch for the bridge pickup. i've been ruing the amount of money i've put into maintenance of gear recently but i realise i've been playing heavily for two years and have only been buying and selling toys - not spending anything on maintenance of my bajillion year old gear.

So what's a good way to practice drums?

I am thinking some kind of noise canceling headphone setup or something? I could also use this with bass/guitar jamming and learning covers, in addition to the ability to hear like youtube lessons/metronomes.

I have no idea really, but if I could have like that and a ditto pedal so I could practice over stuff I wrote on another instrument real quick too that would be cool. Hopefully one of you have an idea that wont totally brea the bank.
