Put 'em up

 

[Revson]

I got 3 sm81's for $700 last night. They look a little rough, but they work and sound fine.

To replace one that was stolen from me.

 

[Mikaël-ange]

Do want!

Put 'em up

Here's some stuff I did with the Rockmaster through Eleven Rack the first day I had it. Getting better tones now.

Dinking around with the PSA-1 as a power amp/cab sim for the Mesa Quad:

Got a lot of tweaking to do but I will get there where I'm happy eventually. The Sansamp kind of takes over the sound more than I want it to but seems like it has potential. It's a $200 guitar too but usually does the job (Schecter Diamond Gryphon)

BTW, netmusicians is notorious for not working with the link until you refresh it so might have to go up in the browser and hit enter.

it's fretless

 

[FIXXXER]

curiuos to hear some clips!

 

[fatalforce]

sacha, that is sick man. I kinda want one now. You could do some really interesting and tasteful licks with that 8th string

 

[ParsonsMatt]

I wouldn't do anything tasteful with it. Just a lot of weird sounding slide noises :lol

After years of faffing about with isolation exercises, I'm finally buckling down and doing the Stronglifts routine - 2 weeks in, and it feels awesome! An even $600 for the whole set though

 

[AllanD]

STRONGLIFTS FTW. You'll notice huge improvements in overall strength. I did stronglifts, peaked at 225x5x5 squats, now doing Bill Starr 5x5, at 270x5 squat. Iz good shit.

 

[MarcusGHedwig]

Cool man, glad to hear it's worked so well for you - how does the Bill Starr 5x5 differ?

 

[AllanD]

You do different weights each set. Start at 50% of estimated max, then 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or something like that. After a few amount of weeks, eventually you're just pushing your max up 5 pounds every week.

 

[Bekanor]

Should be here in a couple of weeks.

 

[A Midnight Requiem]

Got this so I have a version of Pro Tools to learn on. I've been using REAPER the past couple of years, and I figured it doesn't hurt to know how to use the industry standard DAW well, in case I get a job in the field elsewhere.

Nice one, Brett. Now you have an 'offensive midrange' reference.

And awesome set, Marcus... I'd have killed for something like that 4-5 years ago. Spent too much time commuting to the gym.

 

[MetalJonesy]

lovely, Brett!!!
