so, i'm guessing it's overall fairly light

[JTurbide]

Yeah if I remember right it is all ash with maple neck and makassar ebony fingerboard.

It reads 8.4lbs (or 3.8kg) with a strap on my scale, which is perfectly in line with what I read on other aural ii 6 string fretless. So yeah pretty light

Oh and I changed the rounds for tapes. First time I play these. It's great but they were bigger (in terms of string radius) so the low B and high C popped out of the nut and the fretboard because of the tension outwards applied by the tuning pegs being a bit towards the extremities, so I had to do a little "I spent all my money on gear already" mod... Pink brocolli elastics !!!

Keeps the strings in place and actually kinda looks cool and funny

well played...well played

*sigh*

Having got enough guitars, amps, basses and synths, I've picked up a couple of pedals which I had previously sold but missed.

So in the next few days a CSIDMAN and an Ottobit Jr. will return to the collection.

I'm not aware of anything else I want or miss, but no doubt I'll think of something when I have an idle moment.

Edit: I've just been refunded on the Ottobit Jr, so I'll have to look around for another one.

Paul C and Cosmicevan are our Gas Overlords



I have not played in a few days, so if I have enegry to do so I will probably jam tonight. Since Christmas I have been on a dirt journey, getting the Magic Pedals Bongzilla Fuzz - MAE Part Garden - Friedman BE OD - ( Also picked up a Alexander Marshmallow).

I love parts of some of these but not completely in love with them, for some reason I either want wild heavy in your face fuzz tones or just clean sounds. The friedman has been my always on favorite because it does the chugg chugg sound really really well but it lacks a lead sound which I am sort of doing with the Virus. I love my Dirge melt but that pedal has horns and eats all of the other pedals on my board, it also wants to blow my ear drums out and eat French Bread - long story short its almost a one pedal type of show.

I am excite to get my ShoeGazer back in my hands and I think that's the last of the extreme fuzzes I want / need but there is this throat locust that's for sale and all you bastars say its the bees knees.

I also want more delay

Help

I think the throat locust gets a fair bit of love round these parts.

got another cioks dc5 so i don't have to swap the one i have between the big and little boards any more. most boring gear purchase ever.

I would disagree - My DC12 is one of the best gear purchases I made last year. It was so nice when I got my Cab M and I just flicked the switch for 12vt.

Why is nobody buying this? If Jero wasn't making me a ShoeGazer (TP/ SM) I would be ALL OVER this shit ( that color tho)

That ESP rainbow tho

Gas is so wonderful

[Paul_C]

Update: the shop selling the CSIDMAN phoned me last night to let me know it'll be a week or so before I get it and I ended up buying a new Ottobit Jr. which is on the way and should be here tomorrow or Monday.

I've not bought anything else, but another MOOD might be nice and the Pixelwave looks interesting...

Reminder that I still need to upgrade my PSU to something like these.

and thank you

[cosmicevan]

I dunno, I get pretty jazzed about Cioks power supplies. Particularly the DC7. I have 3 of them?!?!?!!! I actually just snagged a Cioks4 extender. I have another Cioks4 with the plug. I'll likely use this one with a DC7 on my exploration board.

Got a few more fun things en route and something that recently arrived, but we'll hit it in a post when it's all here.

[goroth]

The cioks are really good.

I changed over to a 1spot CS something a while back for some reason and it is equally fantastic. Possibly even quieter with high gain stuffs**.



** I have a patented scientifically valid method of testing power supplies. Crank the gain on a high gain distortion then turn the volume off on the guitar and compare how much noise the pedal makes on idle.

[MechaGodzilla]

"galaxy brain shit" as the kids might say

[Gone Fission]

I got the Eventide version of the DC-7 (the v2) for the Pitchfactor and a couple of non 9v things I acquired in close proximity. Had never noticed a noise problem with my OneSpot daisy chain, but it seems to have finally died when I pulled it back out so I can’t compare. But the DC7 does make life easier. I really like not totaling up mA of the pedals I want to use, since nothing I use exceeds the capacity of any of the taps.

[Paul_C]

Ottobit Jr. arrived and added to the set up, along with my Rubberneck and Miku.

One more on the way, a Malekko Polyamorator, which looks like it might be a lot of fun.
