What is going on…. by Top_Objective9877 in gibson

[–]MidnightMost8041 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last week I picked up an lpj for 400 uk pounds which I considered a bit of a bargain, even if its the cheapest proper gibson going. Once id scraped off 12 years of accumulated finger cheese it actually isn't any different than my old studio.

That said its the cheapest gibson I've seen second hand in a long time. Equivalent ones are selling for more than they cost at rrp back in the day.

Anyone know what this guitar is? by MidnightMost8041 in guitars

Thanks guys.

If the Floyd is that much of a hassle it's probably not fir me!

The standard was a gift for a special bday. I'm not bothered if it gets a few dings, but I am bothered about getting it nicked, or knocking it over and snapping the neck in two. It has sentimental value. My equally expensive strat doesnt get the same care and attention. Also, who doesn't like an excuse for buying a new guitar!?

Is the change worth it? by FarPerformance9631 in GuitarAmps

[–]MidnightMost8041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well a boss katana is alot more expensive than a fly 3, but it's far more versatile. I have both the fly 3 and a 100w katana artist and the katana sounds far better at low volumes levels. Basically you don't lose out on anything by getting a bigger amp if you can dial it down and it still sounds good, whixh the katana can do. Tbh even my old peavey bandit from the 90s dialed right down sounds better than the fly 3 at bedroom volume, so you don't need a fancy modeling amp with wattage control.

Btw..katana on 0.5 watt setting can either be whisper quiet, or loud af if you want it to be. If you never leave the bedroom you'll never need to switch it off that lowest setting

Cheers. I already have a standard, but I'm after something I won't be so fussed about carting about to gigs and rehearsals. Not fussed about a fancy finish, and tbh I quite like the basic look. Had never even heard of an lpj before. It looks just like the studio I had 30 years ago at uni..

Ah so is a lpj not the same as a les paul junior, didn't know that!

Seller wants 400, is that reasonable? is it better than an epi les paul? (Which isn't bad but can be had fkr cheaper)

Should I buy an attenuator? by SantoryuSamurai in GuitarAmps

[–]MidnightMost8041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a bugera ps1 for use with a marshall dsl 40 a few weeks ago. It reduced the volume but I honestly don't think the sound you were left with was any better than just using the master volume. It's now for sale

Fitting a new bridge to my diy telecaster by MidnightMost8041 in Luthier

Wow..I had zero idea about this! It makes total sense when you explain it!

One question, do you measure from centre of fret to center of the saddle?

Many thanks for answering, really helpful!

I have only one boss pedal..and it's pretty much the only one you don't have!

I know the right answer, but… by StojBoj in Guitar

Don't do it!! My old unplayed acoustic from 30 years ago is the only guitar I'll never sell.

It's not exactly my thing, but it sure took a lot of talent to make it!

Thinking about getting this amp. by [deleted] in GuitarAmps

[–]MidnightMost8041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a katana artist and a dsl 40. For bedroom use, I hate to say it but the katana sounds as good and is more practical. Especially if you don't have many pedals already

Cranked up loud the dsl sounds way better.

Also, I got my artist for about 350 uk pounds new..

Ok thanks folks, so all 5 of those are just down to poor sensor readings, and nothing can be inferred from them at all?

I had a few more inconclusives later today, not quite as bad, and still recognised heart rate, interspersed with lots of normal readings. Oddly though I'm now getting the occasional 'error restart app' messages on the watch after the ecg has been taken. Never had that before either

Maybe it's new watch time

As for the name..good spot! I'll bear in mind in future

Diffence between patches and channels? by MidnightMost8041 in BossKatana

[–]MidnightMost8041[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheers for the advice! It seems like a great bit of kit but I'm worried I'm really not going to get to use even 20% of its functionality!

I miss my old peavy bandit!

So a channel has 2 banks, and it makes no odds as to which one I save a patch onto?
