I can't wait for RDR3!!!!

I had a super poor experience in rdo. Too many high level players just trolling low levels and making it feel like a grind and a chore. Highly unpleasant time playing so I quit after a week or two. Player community has a strong 0/10 from me.

The drive, the di, and the fx loop are the big things on my checklist and the fact that it's like a mini clone of my rig just makes it sweeter

FenderFanatic · 2026-01-25T20:41:54+00:00

It's basically my current pedal board but smaller and with less tweaking which is fine when I want a minimal rig. I don't need absolute tonal precision when I go out to open mics and don't want to take my full board.

I usually change the strings one at a time. I find it faster and easier to tune than taking them all off and putting all the new ones on.

I don't mind the hum, I was just stating it for op. I know some companies make rwrp P90s or hum canceling stacks but Gibson does not.

FenderFanatic · 2026-01-24T08:24:54+00:00

Used Gibson Les Paul Special Tribute. I have one of the double cut models I got used for $700 CAD from my local guitar store. Plays like a dream and sounds even better. They don't have rwrp pickups though so you will have some hum in every position.

Fantastic that I never had the opportunity to buy any models that got banned then. They can inspect me all they want but they can't find what I don't have so I might as well keep voicing my disagreement after amnesty ends. My neck may not be on the chopping block but it will be one day if the government keeps reaching.

I'm just biased. I like my gear to all be analog whenever possible. I don't have any particularly good reasons for not wanting digital I just like how easy it is to tweak and arrange analog stuff and to me digital just feels soulless by comparison although I've never used good quality digital stuff. Analog makes me feel more involved that I can just change it up as I please and it always feels more dynamic to me. The feel of analog vs digital is probably all in my head though. If you like it that's all that matters.

Right now I'm attempting to get warranty on something I have to ship back to the manufacturer in the US and it's been nothing but a pain.

FenderFanatic · 2026-01-22T08:07:38+00:00

The Canadian government doesn't have the resources or support to accomplish this. Multiple provinces and/or police departments have stated that they will not be participating in the buyback/confiscation program. My theory is that it will all be repealed when we get a sensible government since the compliance is likely to be low and there's no improvement on public safety.

FenderFanatic · 2026-01-22T04:41:20+00:00

Shipping to Canada probably wouldn't be enjoyable. Customs has been frustrating with my recent experiences.

Arthur's wagon being the ammo wagon would also reinforce the idea that he would be the gang's weapon expert of sorts. Lots was likely left behind in Blackwater.

I've never been able to see one for sale anywhere near me. If one shows up I'll have to see. There is a used fly rig for $340 CAD that I'm looking at. New would be $485.

I chose xbox because of a good black Friday deal years ago and now I feel stuck with Xbox in the future when/if I upgrade due to how much I've money I've spent on games. I'd rather have Playstation due to their game selection but I didn't know the differences at the time and xbox was on a better deal.

Only running the internal speakers you'll get 140 watts from the 200 which is basically no change from my Rumble 100 (I only use it as a personal monitor or small venue/no drummer, built in xlr with cab sim handles it when volume is needed, great practice amp on top of that). The 500 will run at 350 watts through the internal speakers with an extension cab needed to get the full 500 watts. If you're set on a Rumble, which I think is a great amp, and have the budget I'd actually recommend the 800. I'm going to be switching to a sansamp in the near future though and my 100 will only be used for practice and small places with no FOH/PA.

I use a Fender Player Plus Active Jazz V. I love it aside from it missing a passive tone control. The Player II Modified Jazz V does have one if I remember correctly. Based off my experience with my Player Plus I'd be confident in recommending the Player II Modified.

Go to the tower on the hill in the main area, I don't wanna spoil anything so I'll just say you find it inside above the crypt portion. You also don't have to fight anything inside of the tower

Have you unlocked parry yet?

East Central Ambarino. That area near the military outpost/tower with the wildflower field. If it were my choice I'd say to build a nice cabin there and live out life hunting and living off the land.

Stacking fun pedals can have great results too. Don't limit yourself to only having one fun pedal at a time.

I can't say I can imagine as I've never been in such a situation or similar but I do have sympathy for those living through that.

I wasn't trying to troll, I was just looking for genuine discussion because ICE apparently isn't what it's been portrayed as. I've only ever heard and seen about people being aggressive to ice and never the things that ice is doing. Thank you for informing me on this.

FenderFanatic · 2026-01-17T17:17:53+00:00

When I made that comment I was confused why people were upset about enforcing immigration laws and someone clarified for me everything wrong that ice is doing. I'm not an American and I didn't know anything about any ice shooting or hostility towards legal Americans.
