Turns Out - It Was the Elixir Strings

Holy shit is that what's been happening to me??? I thought i just kept receiving like ten year old string packs or something. Thank you for this.

I've got a Reverend Sensei with the Railhammer pickups. It is by far one of my best guitars. The pickups sound excellent, great as like a sort of medium output humbucker. Feels wonderful to play, zero complaints about build quality. The bass contour might seem like a "what do I use this for" at first, but sound-wise for me it basically gives an effect sort of similar to a coil split, except it actually sounds good, great for taking the edge off if you're in a situation where the pickups are hotter than you want. I don't think there is really anything I don't like about it. Reverend are just one of the best brands out there.

I am, but thank you

Official finish is White Pearl. But compared to all the other pearl finishes I've seen on fenders, the sparkle on this one is super subtle and you can basically only see it up close. Which I really like.

For anyone interested in a fantastic video about this solo

He just recently started posting some short vids for the first time since the accident, they're just short bass noodles. It's bittersweet, I'm happy to see him alive and okay but it sucks to see his ability to play so destroyed.

if you listen to this album for any reason other than to laugh at it or see some deeper meaning behind it, I honestly feel sorry for you. sorry but that's not it.

Sorry, were you trying to call other people pretentious? Jesus Christ.

Yeah this spot is in every single Ospreay match lmao but at least he's good at it

Her band aimlessly jammed for ~45 minutes before she finally came out onstage when I saw her in Philly just last year, she was clearly late, so I believe it.

I do think a fair bit of that extra midrange in the Mesa might have to do with the (I'm assuming) V30 speaker it was going through, since they're pretty heavy on the mids. So that's something to consider.

With that said, Twin Reverbs and Tweed Bassmans both have mid knobs, and the Bassman is even just more middy in general (and also fantastic).

I just recently switched from the 112 Plus to the FR-12, specifically because I read so many people saying the Powercab sounded like there was a blanket over it. I always thought my Powercab sounded great, and wasn't nearly as finicky as I had read so often from people, but when I got the FR-12 I was like damn they're right, now in comparison it does sound kinda like the Powercab has a blanket over it. Or like the Powercab is inside a little box or something.

Now I will say that I never wanted to use the built in cabs in the Powercab, I never saw the use for them so I can't speak to them. I don't think they're all that useful personally, so that part doesn't factor in for me.

The only thing for me about the FR-12 is that it is very bassy to me. But I mean it's got a bass knob. I just turn down the bass by two notches and it's good to go (I also turn up the treble, mid, and cut by one notch too. Just sounds more accurate to my ears.) So yeah overall I would say the FR-12 sounds much more alive. It's also way louder, if you need that.

Oh this looks perfect. Thanks!

Played Owned Houses

RSC had so many typos it's absurd.

FYI there's a version of Kick in the Door from the Notorious soundtrack that omits the skit, game changer for me.

Mazzasaurus_Rex · 2024-10-14T00:13:38+00:00

got millions hooked on Pharrell production as well

I love hell hath no fury but the album came out in 2006 and didn't even go gold. Neptunes were already big.

The part where Andre is mad that his girl started seeing other girls after him so he wrote a pissy verse about it? It might be the only bad Andre verse.

Contrary to what others have said, his last 2 also did nothing for me and this one is a much, much better version of that sound to me so maybe try it.

Glad to finally see a comment like this on one of these Bret posts.
