Guitar Player's Thread

[children of COB]

anyone have opinions on the Bugera 6262 or 333xl aside from the realiability stuff which seems to have been fixed? I think I may pick up a 6262 combo soon but I can't try a 333xl.

I've tried both heads, and while the sound wasn't bad, they make more noise that the 5150 and the XXX. Not that you'd die and probably nothing a noisegate can't stop, so if you want it go for it. Between both I'd go for the 6262, I didn't like the feel of the 333 plus the knobs feel EXTREMELY cheap, like they're gonna fall the second you look away.

When did the jackson stop producing the "Jackson Stars J2SP"?

And anyone can still get the same guitar that Alexi used to have. You can customise your own guitar (like Alexi did) and choose the design, specs, etc. I tried making one for fun, and it was exactly like the guitar that Alexi used. So its been discontinued, but instead you have to specially order one if you want it.. At least thats what I think... Correct me if im wrong.

And holy shit!! MitchD17's guitar is like the fucking defenition of "AMAZING". Im so gonna make a custom that'll look exactly like Alexi's when I have enough money ;D Its the most beautiful thing ever.

For the last time: Alexi's guitar CAN'T BE DISCONTINUED BECAUSE IT WAS A FUCKING CUSTOM SHOP, there was never a production line of it, only one in the world! The Jackson Stars J2SP (which while it's really close it's NOT Alexi's guitar) was discontinued last year or so.

Ohhh. Mad. So does that that mean I can make a custom that'd be the same as his old Jackson?

Well band practice went completely awful tonight, as we have one more rehearsal before battle of the bands Thursday and our singer came to practice high as a kite.

Instead of concentrating on learning the vocal parts to our cover medley....
...he decided to roll around on the floor knocking over a chair and two music stands on top of him which then he attached to his body screaming:

"SHIITTT SHITTT SHITTTT IM FORGING ARMOR SHIITTT SHITTT SHITTT IM FORGING ARMOR"

but at least we got this good photo out of it

 

[umosay]

^ wow, that's too bad... guys should know when to be serious and when to muck around, obviously he's struggling with that

Pretty stoked atm, Eugen from Far Beyond joined my project as clean vocalist/guitarist/mixer. I was listening to his new EP (one of the best things I've heard this year) Bought the EP off him and he asked if I needed someone else to join. haha.

Didnt have your singer ADHD?

....Sounds like the kinda guy i'd like....kick out. Given the fact you battle of the bands is only a day away.....he sounds a complelely counterproductive person.

What a fucking moron

 

[Conti]

One time our drummer showed up late to practice (the last one before our first show) with bloodshot eyes and he couldnt play the songs well at all. I made a big fuss about it, turns out he had really bad allergies. I felt like a dick after haha.

 

[Lowberg]

Yeah I was pretty pissed at him but it was still really funny and I think we will be fine with tonight's rehearsal.

If he ever did this for my other band that he sings for I would definitely have had to give him the boot or threaten to.


But you really cant stay pissed at this kid, its hard to explain unless you meet him in person.
He is the most hyper, ridiculous, and goofy person I have ever met. He's like a fucking cartoon character, makes me laugh every time

Didnt have your singer ADHD?

Like you wouldn't believe

 

[Conti]

I'm not sure if this is common knowledge but. Look what I stumbled apon.

rofl YOU'RE FIRED
but weirdly, yesterday I read an interview with Muhammed Suicmez and he said how Prokoviev was one of his favourite composers.

 

[Conti]

i'm not sure if I mentioned this but when I was watching a vid from our Ensiferum gig at one point Petri comes on stage and a picks up a cymbal that had falled on our drummers set. It's funny, when getting into bands like that you'd never think one day they're going to help you pick up your cymbal haha.

 

[The Emptier]

i thought everyone knew the end of only ash remains was Prokoviev??

 

[COBHC Rayza]

Only loser have guitars with neck pickups and non RR shaped guitars are shit!

I know what you mean man, they are balls to switch to during a song and dont even sound that good. Its like removing the beast from the bridge pickup, which are beast

 

[children of COB]

Ohhh. Mad. So does that that mean I can make a custom that'd be the same as his old Jackson?

Can you read? You've been told by others already that no, they won't make you a custom copy of one of their artists (and looks like ex-artists too) instruments. The closer you can go is a used or new (impossible to find) J2SP or going to Ran/Amfisound/whatever custom shop and ask them to build you one. Ran are pretty good at it.

Hopefully he'll be ok with last rehearsal.
