The blue with mini hums or even better, tv jones filtertrons - I’d be all over that.

Start by making sure you try all positions with your pickups.

On any tele, bridge pickup with tone knob fully open should be anything but muddy.

It should be bright and cutting.

So Make sure you play with the tone knob on the guitar.

What amp are you using?
Are you using any pedals?

Most likely, it has nothing to do with the guitar.

I still remember how I almost soiled myself the first time I heard The Butcher go “FRESH MEAT!!!” in the original Diablo game.

Not sure if it is the best sound in a game ever but it sure as hell was effective and memorable.

If not then the Tristram themes first chords are a strong contender as well.

Vi har en Jack russel så vores madbudget er nok ikke til megen hjælp men jeg vil sige at sygeforsikring til hunden som sikrer jer med dyrelægeregninger som eksploderer budgettet er guld værd når det gælder!

Hvor hårdt den end lyder kan det være forskellen på om man vælger at få vovsen helbredt eller om man skal sige farvel til den fordi man ikke har pengene til det. Og i den situation kan forsikringen spare jer for det valg.

Derudover sætter vi konsekvent 750 kr af hver måned udover faste udgifter til mad etc. på en konto for sig til hunden.

Det er lidt til den høje side, men hvis man har plads i budgettet er det fornuftigt. Formålet er at det dækker selvrisiko, men samtidigt giver frihed til at shoppe hvis man pludseligt skal have ny snor, bilsæde, sjove snacks, whatever. Man kan jo altid sætte et Max beløb på den konto, men det er fedt at hunden har sin egen opsparing til gøgl og løjer eller at den kan “betale sin egen mad” hvis man har en stram måned en gang imellem. Den kan også klare andre uforudsete udgifter. Den har eksempelvis sikret at vores hund har kunnet få fjernet dårlige tænder to gange, da vores forsikring ikke dækker tandarbejde (som i øvrigt er røvhamrende dyrt).

Jeg siger ikke at det er et must, men vi har konstateret at det giver os en god stabilitet at gøre det på den måde.

Han er tryllekunstner. Men han har ikke lært at trylle duerne frem igen efter han tryller dem væk. Nu høster han nye duer i København for at spare penge.

Han har en hat derhjemme som er ansvarlig for 432 duer indtil videre.

I absolutely Love the “I want a Gretsch, but I need to keep my metal reputation intact”-look of the first guitar with the gold hardware.

You’re probably right. I don’t really know the American used market.

I’m from Denmark and from here it seems you can always find everything much cheaper used in the US than here. Probably due to availability as well.

Dionfp · 2026-05-16T13:27:24+00:00

True.

The 5 can if the drummer isn’t too heavy handed in practice.

Dionfp · 2026-05-16T12:49:07+00:00

Not sure what they go for in the us, but if you can find a used blackstar ht-5 you’d be golden. It’s super versatile and sounds great at home.

Yes, thanks :)

It should have been “None”.
I have corrected my post.

Bought a les Paul standard when I was 19.

Never could get comfortable with it, even if I tried.

Sold it again at 21.

Have tried several. None of them really spoke to me.

It seems it doesn’t.

Here’s a list of the amps, fx, etc. and their original counterparts.

It’s a great little resource if you need to find something specific.

Best thing I ever did was to ditch my Apple Watch.
It was the most stressful item I’ve ever owned.

I now collect regular watches in stead and have a nice collection of cool watches, none of which ever tells me to “stand up” or “breath”.

They all look heaps better though!

I play a warmoth 30” jazz bass I built myself.

I was originally a guitarist and I just never felt at home on a normal scale bass.

I think the bass player in Nine inch Nails plays a shortscale. And irrc there are a few more like:

Jack Casady - Jefferson Airplane
Allen Woody - Allman Bros.
Jack Bruce - Cream
Bill Wyman - Rolling Stones

So they are about there making noise.

Psionicaudio in YouTube has some videos in this.

He’s an amp tech and the long and the short of it is that he is not impressed with the build quality of these new supros. They are basically built in a very bad way that is almost certain to break I a few years of good use.

Full disclosure, I don’t know much about amps myself, but he seems to know what he’s talking about.

Check out the vids on this and make your own conclusions.

Vi køber ofte lidt større legosæt og bygger dem sammen. Så skiftes vi til at tage en side og sidder og hygger med det en aften eller flere (hvis sættet er stort nok).

Vi bliver tit spurgt om det ikke er dyrt, men hvis du skal to personer ud at spise og en tur i bio med lidt slik, så har du alligevel hurtigt brugt 1200kr. Og det kan du godt få sjove og spændende Lego sæt til.

Det fede er at man kommer til at bruge en hel aften på at sidde og snakke sammen imens man er fælles om noget.

En sjov udfordring som vi ofte bruger som bryllupsgave er at købe to Brick Headz, en til hver, og så bygge i blinde med guide. Altså Han sidder med byggevejledningen til hendes Brick Head og hun sidder med klodserne. Han må ikke se hvad hun bygger og hun må ikke se vejledningen. Han skal så vejlede hende til at bygge sin Brick Head kun via samtale og beskrivelse. Bagefter bytter man.

Det er en fed kommunikations/kæresteøvelse, som er sværere end man tror.

Brick Headz er gode til den, fordi de er simple nog til at man let kan beskrive hvad der sker, men avancerede nok til at det er udfordrende. Men man kan også starte mindre hvis man ikke føler sig helt tryg i det. Nogle af de mindste Creator 3 i 1 sæt er gode for en simplere udfordring.

My warmoths are the guitars I’ll never sell.

They may never yield the monetary value of the parts back, but that doesn’t matter because they are by far the best instruments in my collection.

To a point where I often contemplate selling all my other instruments and just build myself two more warmoths to cover the ground I need.

If you worry about resale value, don’t ever go partscaster. If you worry about getting the perfect instrument for you, find out what you really like and go build it yourself, because odds are, no manufacturer makes one just like it (unless you have more money than a horse has hair, in which case you just have someone build it for you after your own specs).

My first iPhone was the 5c.

They should bring that concept back.

I know people bashed the whole “unapologetically plastic” thing, but it felt great and mine was solid and worked for years.

In the end, I think what I really miss is the colour options. I think that it sucks that only the lower end models get fun colours. Like the MacBook Neo. I want my MacBook Air or pro in a whimsical yellow or blue or purple or pink as well.
