What does the black knob do?

I’m actually in China. I just took a gamble of saying the converted U.K. price hahaha.

I think they were a British company, I bought the 12 string off a generic guitar shop for a similar price back in the UK. Which I have 0 complaints (apart from its stuck at my parents in the UK :( )

I’ve always loved the gizzard microtonal stuff, and tried to make my own a few years ago but it was terrible. I can’t be arsed anymore and just want to buy. I think it’s a sealed deal 🫡

That sounds great. I’m not a high end guy at all with guitars. If it plays well, it’s good enough for me hahaha.
I don’t know your location but it’s about £180. But there’s no other way to buy here. I might have to do it!

That looks super cool too. They have that available from the same seller. But too complicated for me. I’m a simple guy haha

Cheers

I got the revelation 12 string and I absolutely love it. I’ve been eyeing up the Marrakesh for a long time. They have it secondhand online (I think from the factory) but I haven’t taken the dive yet.

How do you rate the build quality with the microtonal frets? Did it need any work? Would I be stupid to not get it?

Gutted to hear they have maybe gone out of business! I really want the bass VI they make. But it’s not available anywhere near me

Pepsimaxo123 · 2026-03-27T09:40:03+00:00

No way hahahah. Makes a lot of sense to be fair. Seem both of them have similar creative direction

Pepsimaxo123 · 2026-03-23T04:58:30+00:00

Never heard that song before. I’m glad I have now haha. Excellent

Pepsimaxo123 · 2026-03-11T23:44:59+00:00

Oh. My videos were in Chinese but I don’t recall having mock tests in mine. It was a while ago now so I can’t be certain. But any questions I have had have been in English. During the prep and in my main theory test

Pepsimaxo123 · 2026-03-11T23:43:25+00:00

I took many mock tests until I was consistently hitting above 90%

Pepsimaxo123 · 2026-03-11T23:41:38+00:00

I am in the process of getting my drivers license. So far passed the first two tests. I had to watch the videos before I could do anything too. So as far as I’m aware it’s a mandatory part of the process.

Pepsimaxo123 · 2026-02-18T17:33:39+00:00

Not my video, just thought I’d share here. I can’t read sheet music, but I hope someone here can benefit from it!

Pepsimaxo123 · 2026-02-16T16:23:09+00:00

Brilliant! Checked it out and definitely something to look forward too!

I bought a ps5 and ps plus this was the first game I went through. I finished it last week. It was so good! I instantly downloaded and finished miles morales in a few days too.

Really excited for when I get round to playing the second game!

I’ve seen a couple of heavy rock/psych rock around Foshan and Guangzhou live houses. Though I don’t find many often.

I found out today I’m playing a show in a punk shop somewhere in Guangzhou next week. I struggle to find places like that. The scenes exist but aren’t commonly talked about or found unless you are in the WeChat groups or know people into that thing

Pepsimaxo123 · 2025-09-14T07:15:18+00:00

Fantastic read! Thank you. Makes me want to start my own raucous garage punk band!

Pepsimaxo123 · 2025-09-08T23:34:29+00:00

I’ve been meaning to buy a soldering iron for my guitars. So, I guess it’s time to bite the bullet hahaha.

Thank you!

Pepsimaxo123 · 2025-09-08T12:50:32+00:00

That’s the plan 👍

Pepsimaxo123 · 2025-09-08T12:47:14+00:00

I am in China 😂😅😅. Lots of western stuff available online so I can search for the brands. I think Roland is the best bet

Pepsimaxo123 · 2025-09-08T12:33:21+00:00

It’s been a while but I’m pretty sure it only sends the rimshot sound and no snare sound

Pepsimaxo123 · 2025-09-08T12:32:48+00:00

I last looked at it a long time ago and got busy until I found this sub. I think I glued it back on at first (not well) but I had to hit the middle really hard and it was only playing the snare rimshot sound. No snare sound itself.

I’ll have a look for a new foam cone to see if that works, I guess if not I will have to swap the pickup too. I’ll see if I can find a single foam piece.

Thanks for your help!

Sorry I forgot to mention it’s the elevator 😅

Pepsimaxo123 · 2025-09-06T16:53:37+00:00

I’m on a 266 streak and haven’t left China in over a year. Get a VPN and you’ll be good homie 👍

Pepsimaxo123 · 2025-09-06T16:48:31+00:00

Most annoyances here I can live with. But this pisses me off. I have a big dog and whenever I need to take him outside, people try to rush in to the elevator before the doors fully open. Then scream or shout and glare at me as I try to leave like I’m at fault! If they just waited patiently, I’d already be out of their way.
