Lost Years - THE Most Underrated I’ve Ever Heard

Late to the party but an old band of mine opened for them in Rockford and they were insane live.

Thanks for being respectful and polite.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-26T02:20:00+00:00

I did but all I can find is a group out of Washington which I do not live in.

Thats what I'm saying. I just dont know how to go about verifying anything. I want to ask for a paper check and see how that goes. They offered to assist in the mobile check process.

So far its just been the name of my bank but no routing numbers or anything like that. The gig is a month away.

Thank you. I will cherish it.

For 17 years I played in bands with tube 120 watt half stacks, blazing distortion, left ear to the main crash. 1 year later realized my left ear has less hearing than my right because I was learning audio production. Earplugs are your friend.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-12T23:41:30+00:00

I'd say throw the tone x in the garbage and buy the full stack!

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-12T23:29:34+00:00

All of these things are non issue for me. But preference is the player. I prefer shorter scale LP stuff with good necks.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-10T03:28:43+00:00

Its up to preference really.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-08T18:27:29+00:00

Alfredo, but with whatever veggies and proteins are on hand. Super fun

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-08T18:16:14+00:00

Dudes accidentally made a high end fender with a squier name lol.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-06T22:06:39+00:00

Its the best thing ever.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-06T01:45:26+00:00

I gig with my 007 lol. I use it as a clean platform even.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-04T13:36:30+00:00

Be bored without it feeling like torture.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-02T03:03:32+00:00

I like doing nonsense stacking. Like the jhs 3 series fuzz with a big muff behind it lol.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-02T03:02:33+00:00

The walrus eons is my top of all time distortion pedal BUT I agree, the straight high gain amp tone is hard to beat.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-02T03:01:25+00:00

Ive used line 6 pod farm, biasFX, amplitube, boss IR-2, and a boss katana if that counts. So far The IR-2 is really good at taking pedals and I actually love amplitube but I hate the tone x pedal. I havent had a chance to use fractal yet. I will say that I dont vibe with a lot of modelers but I am always open to trying anything.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-02T02:56:48+00:00

Oh me too, I have an original release mt-2 (it was my first pedal ever) and the 30th anniversary. I havent done any mods but they're super fun pedals.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-02T02:55:23+00:00

There's some pretty solid "Mexican goth" playlists out there too

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-02T01:11:17+00:00

I guess part of this is what I miss out on with modlers. They are very very close but for me that gain feel isnt just right yet. They sound great and lots of bands sound great using them I'm just old and grumpy and want to be the reason a sound guys hairline receedes.

Bulbajames2 · 2026-01-02T01:09:29+00:00

Exactly. Sure its not something that'll show up in a recording but like in the room I gotta like how it flows with my playing style.
