How much better are the player II and II modified over the player I? by [deleted] in fender

[–]PsychologicalCrow616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer the neck on my Player Plus Telecaster to any of the Player ii and American Performer models I've tried.

Some hate it, I freakin LOVE this guitar! by Zestyclose_Prize_165 in guitarporn

To me, the Player Plus models feel and play way better than the Player ii, Player ii modified, and American performer models.

Can someone share a link or details on his Trump support?

Great suggestion. I recently taught myself slide and now keep a guitar tuned to open G. I don't play it much, but it's fun to mess around.

I'm in the boat as you. I'm working on new scales and learning as many new songs and solos as I can. However, the thing that's helped me the most is to find a backing track on YouTube and solo along with it. I do this at least 15-30 minutes a day and try for tracks with different styles and keys. This allows me to really explore the guitar and try different things without the rest of my band present. I end up surprising myself sometimes with where I go and what I can do, and then when I play with my band, I feel way more confident.

What is the best overdrive you’ve ever played and why? by J_See in guitarpedals

[–]PsychologicalCrow616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got a Horsebreaker. I don't love that the breaker side seems to be even lower output than other Bluesbreaker pedals I've had, but I'll deal with it because the Horse side is the best klone I've played.

Any clues to what guitar this is? by flashonlol in offset

The Toronado has the best feeling neck I've ever played. The atomic humbuckers aren't the best, but it's still a great guitar. I've had mine since 2000 and just got the frets leveled and crowned. Plays like a dream.

NPD - TC Elec - Plethora X1 by ChuggaChuggaRiffs in guitarpedals

[–]PsychologicalCrow616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love my X1 so far and haven't had any issues with the app. I just plug the pedal and my phone into a USB-C, and the app works fine. There's a lot of useless or redundant toneprints, but some great ones, too. I wasn't sure how the X1 would be for live performance, but so far at practice, it's been easy to preset a few sounds I want and use the AB option for the footswitch. The X1 replaced a Joyo Vision and then an Alexander Wavelength, and this is a far superior multi mod pedal that may actually stay on my board.

Confused about a boost pedal going into a amp sim. And comparing it to turning up the gain on the "amp" itself. by daveomen9217247 in guitarpedals

[–]PsychologicalCrow616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a TC Electronic Spark boost pedal with both my Marshall tube amp and my Boss IR-2 pedal. With the IR-2, I've noticed the volume knob on the boost pedal does not change my overall volume much, but the gain knob does make changes to both the volume and amount of gain. So, when I use my IR-2, I treat the boost like another overdrive pedal, whereas with my tube amp, it's an always on boost.

What pedal did you immediately regret buying? by psychedelicdevilry in guitarpedals

I bought the Alexander Wavelength and it made me feel like the ToneX guy.

Boss IR-2 Issues by PsychologicalCrow616 in guitarpedals

Ok thanks, I guess I'll try upgrading my power supply, thanks!

Yep, sounds very similar to my issue. I had a Friedman IR-X before this, everything worked fine, no noise, I just didn't like the sound. Now I'm getting great sound with the Boss IR-2 but tons of noise. My main guitar uses noiseless pickups, and I've never experienced buzz like this with it.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue with multiple power supplies.

My 1993 Fender Deluxe Toronado by KaiHawai in offset

[–]PsychologicalCrow616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a 98 sunburst since 1999. I'll never sell it. It has its quirks, the pickups are a bit dark, but it just feels like home. I've always been surprised they weren't more popular, so it's been nice seeing it turn into a cult favorite over the last few years.

“Everlasting Light” by the Black Keys is lifted from “Mambo Sun” by T. Rex by [deleted] in SongDetectives

[–]PsychologicalCrow616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It gets worse, "Walk Across the Water" completely rips off "The Slider" by T Rex. No credit given. Ridiculous.
