All GAS no breaks

. . . so I've just bought a guitar/banjo which should be here weds/thurs

The guitarbanjo was fun, but had a monster neck. I was going to thin it down but a friend came round and loved it so I sold it to him

I'm going a bit old-school with my set up right now and I'm down to one stand with one Beebo, one Zoia, one Habit, Ghost Fax, Echosystem, Syntax Error and in the loop of the Echosystem, Miku

Looking forward to making an album or two before I swap things round again.

Thank you Captain Trips

Sold some stuff, bought a Meet Maude from goroth. Fairfield stuff is always worth investigating I think, I've wanted to try one of these since they came out.

Otherwise just thinking about EQs and cabs

finally got around to snagging a Rustybox. Somewhere Domvan's heart has grown one size. Also snagged one of the class D GK heads - is nice. Makes sounds loudly.

Which GK? Those legacy ones look cool on paper

The legacy 800.I feel like they positioned it as more of an 7/800RB replacement than it is - at least if you're looking for that dirty RB sound - and the overdrive is more or less useless (IMO) but it's killer otherwise, and I was able to snag a new one locally for about half the list price, which doesn't hurt either.

I never met DomVan in person, but McBride's (where he worked) announced they were closing up shop within the month, so I hope he felt those pangs if he needed them

We live in terribleness, too much, these days

Domvan was an original ILF bruex - I remember him from my first round posting back in in 2006.

I saw on IG about McBrides

Damn i was hoping for that real GK grind. I think most people think the diezel dawg thing they use for overdrive is awful

Strongly considering trading my Dunable in for a Jackson Soloist

That is all

If? Oh man, acquiring rack gear usually makes a rack case a critical eventuality. I remember my first rack solution, it was an open frame 10u unit that never filled in correctly.. always having a gap that needed filling, but that gap always being too small for whatever hunk of junk I happened across, which led of course to my needing more rack to mount the items.

Occasionally, my rack set-up would fill out perfectly. No gaps, no orphan rack units. These were the times I would come across some deal I couldn't refuse.

Baste, rinse, repeat.

I can only hope your journey is smooth and enriching.

Look before you leap. Getting rid of the neck join can make neck-through guitars significantly better for some people’s playing styles, but a lot of people find most neck throughs to be pretty dead sounding.
