the lack of app support is really putting a damper on my post work thread checking.

National was awesome, they're such a great act to see live.

at least on my phone it seems to work pretty good in the browser, the retro appearance and even better.still, there is an awful lot of scrolling top to bottom.

I don't like how "Watched Threads" only shows you sub'd threads with new posts... what if I want to go post in a sub'd thread that doesn't have new posts?

Get the free tapatalk app in the meantime.. it functions the same.

It looks ok on Chrome/Android on my phone when I hold it horizontally. Looks like dog poopie vertically.

I'll have to give that a shot tonight, Wife's friend just got engaged, so she's going out with her friends to celebrate tonight. Which means I'll be listening to records and getting drunk with my dogs tonight.

I mean actual dogs, not slang for my own friends.

That thing is sexy. Are those wired in parallel like a jazz?

Also, i was in the same boat. Loved the feel/sound of the strings that worked, but couldn't justify the cost on something I can't return when it's fuuckered on delivery.

Thanks man, I agree! I'm not entirely sure yet on the parallel question. Been meaning to find out. I thought I read somewhere that they were, but they're as silent as humbuckers, so I'm not sure. The neck P sounds quite a bit like a P, but I have nothing to directly compare it to.

Edit: You probably meant parallel with the other pickup, not parallel coils. The Fender site says they're split single coils, so definitely not humbuckers. Regardless if they're parallel or series, I plan on installing a push/push pot for global series/parallel.

I like the Lo Rider Nickels, as far as feel goes.

Cool, I'll put them on my list of types to try. Thanks!

Morning fellas, spent last night replacing a brake light switch in the wife's hyundai. It's way the hell up under the dash board, the car is tiny and I'm 6' tall. Must have looked pretty funny to anyone walking by.

I love that I get notified about your posts.

Have you considered a greenboy cab today?

So for the first time in about 6 months I used my 810 yesterday. It's amazing how scooped it is compared to my 215s. Not only that, but I always considered my self a person who likes a lot of mids in my sound. But I guess I didn't know what a lot of mids is until now. In reality I actually prefer a mid scoop. Even when I boosted the mids when using the 810 it still had less mids than the 215s. With the 215s I'm really having to cut the mids around 600hz with my para eq to get a good sound. The 215s sound great with no EQ with a clean tone but any overdrive sound like honky garbage and I need to really dial down the mids. The Bluebeard and TFR sound better with the 215s though, probably because they have mid scopped sound to begin with.

Speaking of the Bluebeard, does anyone have samples of it next to the Wizard Fuzz?


As for BBQs, we start once you can reach the BBQ in the backyard. I had about 4 feet of snow back there this year. No way was I going to shovel my way to the grill.

First BBQ of the year will be this weekend.

i bought one, it was so loud and efficient i had to return it. i was playing the cab in virginia, a guy in maine called me and told me to turn down.

This thread has gotten so big that it can be like Facebook. Sometimes no one likes or comments on your post

I blame Laz for the new layout

Whew, just tried to read the "Jaco/controversy" thread and it's darn near painful.

I never a/b them but I might be able to do that once I get the custom WF going.

 

[ampegfuzz]

Custom? And you no longer build WF right?

Had to drop my car at the shop across town and they wouldn't drive me home... So I walked home and realized my house keys were attached to the car keys. I'm on round three of the walk back and forth... Stopped for a breakfast burrito and black coffee only $3.79

That sucks. Good deal on the burrito/coffee, though.

I am still bummed that I can't view/post to TB from my work computer OR use the WiFi to do so from my phone. 1 bar of 3g isn't going to cut it...
