Just scored this nice RTW Peakmeter

16x apogee, 8x 192, 8x rme adi8pro

Thinking about selling the RME though, I rarely need more than 24.
If I keep it around it'll mainly be for the extra outs (outboard gear)

Just picked up this beauty! Ibanez RG1527M ... definitely one of my bucket-list guitars!
Evo7 in the bridge, Blaze in the neck. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this maple board has some nice character/detail to it... some flame action going on in different spots.

And I absolutely LOVE this "Galaxy White" finish--It has amazing gold flakes/sparkle in it. Kinda hard to photograph, but you can kinda see it in this picture...

Gorgeous! Gotta love em white guitars, especially with maple fingerboards.

 

[DeclanWhite]

that is a sexy guitar!

Just arrived:

Found a nasty surprise on the back though... what say you guys?

 

[sprack]

Warwick? That burl is fantastic, but what's up with the neck?

 

[Virgil.]

that MIGHT be a surface crack, but I wouldn't risk it... I'd send it back if you can.

If that's brand new that would be enough for me to send it back or expect a discount. Call me anal or whatever but new shit should be flawless.

 

[Terminus]

Yikes. Man that shouldn't be allowed to exit the factory like that, especially with such a nice quality instrument.

Finally popped on a set of SD blackouts for my S series (if they'll fit):

 

[Ermz]

Yeah, I've just organized a swap with the store. Was expecting a lot more hassle getting that done - phew. Fingers crossed the replacement comes in time for my next session.

So basically the CS-TW pickups along with the poplar top make this a more mid-focused and growly instrument than the clips I've heard. It's actually not bad... has its own thing going on. The low-end is very clear despite the top not being as 'open'. The mid focus makes me think it would take distortion very well.

Gonna have to agree with it..It may just be a wood imperfection, but seriously, wouldn't want to be somewhere down the line and a crack or something starts forming. Show Dan, you know he'd have an answer for you in a heart beat

 

[IronApe]

Snatched a couple of new toys for the studio (btw, gonna have a studio build thread as soon as it's done)!

And two of these

Bought a pod hd500 a month ago. Glad I did although I wish I was rich and could afford an axefx2. How the hell do you guys afford it?

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

I borrowed a HD400 from a buddy to see if I wanted to buy it. To much shit missing though (like dual tones). I think I would dig it for live stuff though.

Just used my one on the Amon Amarth tour we were on, fucking BEAST of a thing. I had a few compliments from their sound dudes about how well I set up my tone ^_^
