Nick is always trying to convince me to move East, but I hate snow. I would say I'd like to hang out with fellow doomers in the northwest, but I barely even get up to the SF bay area these days. I need to get one of the bands gigging regularly or start new stuff that will gig, so I can find excuses to hang out with people lol. The last time I got up to Portland was on tour in 2004, I liked it.

You don't like snow?!?!?!?! It's like the gloomiest backdrop ever for writing badass doom!!!! But yeah it is kinda a HUGE pain in the ass to get around in hahaha I love Portland, I only got to go for a couple days while on tour back in 2008 but I loved it, and the terrain around it. Everything you could ever want, trees, rivers, mountains, hot springs, strip clubs, EVERYTHING!

hole eeee shit Skip. Mind blown.

Why thank ya sir!

What can I say? I'm a product of my environment, a child of fog. You're making me want to go on tour again.

7 string SG? Do want.

Srsly. A few folks from ss.org have pestered Kurt @ Rondo to do a 7-string version of his Valkyrie model, which is essentially an offset SG, but no luck so far. The Rondo custom orders offer a wide variety of Agile models in 7 (and even 8+) string versions, with multiple scale lengths, so if you want something weird to your spec for not a ton of cash it's a good place to look.

Email kurt@rondomusic.com and let him know. Oh, and that custom order lineup can be found here: http://www.rondomusic.com/customquote.html

I would unfortunately need the funds to back up my desired product before attempting to further its creation.

[celticelk]

Nah, we just need to register enough interest for him to offer it as a model in the next run of Rondo customs (early-mid 2014, I'd guess). No commitment implied or expected.

BTW, what's the scale length on the S-67? 24.75 or 25.5? I've seen conflicting reports.

[Ancient Astronaught]

It IS 25.5". I've measured more than once on each of them.

[AngryGoldfish]

I must have missed all that gear. I didn't know you bought new Tele's and another DeArmond. Fantastic gear, matey!

[Krosis]

7 string SG? Do want.

Yup DeArmond S-67, cheap too if you can find em. I paid 300$ total for both of them, including the pickups I got for the black one.

Yeah man, the only time I saw one before was on the Goodwill online auction site. I bid for it but of course lost. It was blue but that grey one looks even better. I knew nothing about them and couldn't really find any info or reviews, so it's good to hear you like them. Now I've got the GAS again

i've never posted my rig on here. currently it's this. shot of the practice space wall:



mine's the guitar and amp on the left. here's a close up of the current board:


the unlabeled pedals in the upper left are a badascan into an ape blaster. on the bottom right is just a tb loop that controls them. as you can see, the board still has remnants of a stereo setup, but i was forced to sell my other head a few months ago. i haven't been able to bring myself to fully redo the board 'cause i keep telling myself that i'll have another head soon. but really i should just bite the bullet and do it. the ab/y has one channel going to the elements which then goes to nothing. waiting on a head that isn't there... really i should just clear up the space on the board and do something cool with some other pedals. we've actually gotten a lot of compliments on how the guitars interact since i've gone down to one head and i can see where their coming from. i'll probably just stick with it for a while. i'd like to get another reverb, a freeze and maybe a chorus pedal on there. i really really need to get a second guitar when i can afford one.

Do what?!?! Yeah I built the black one about 2 months back, bought the white about a month ago and set it up plus fixed some bad solder joints. The black dearmond I've had since about a week after I got the blue one, but its the back up so its not often out. It's got lower gain pickups and the construction is a lil sloppier, from far away they look the same but up close you can feel that two very different people made them. Thanks again dan.
