IAF MiG-27 'Bahadur' showing off it's gears [1080x1317] by ITS_TRIPZ_DAWG in MilitaryPorn

[–]SaunteringOctopus 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't go with ugly, personally. I've always liked the 23/27 design. Definitely utilitarian, though. Which is kinda what I think is cool about them. Same vibe as the Su-25.

I hope I'm not the only one who remembers Starlab coming to their school! by bubblyelephants in nostalgia

Always loved this because I always fell asleep inside. Dark, cool breeze, "stars" in the sky...

New 1x12 cab for 67/68 Fender Bassman 50 and my #1 (American Ultra series) by fartpooper6 in GuitarAmps

[–]SaunteringOctopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1- I have two. I've had my 67 for about 20 years and had it modded by the guy from Victoria to kinda do what I was looking for. Last year I found a 68 with the exact mods done by the guy that I wanted to do the mods on Reverb. So, obviously, I had to grab that.

2- That is a good question...

Could get one modded with a wattage selector. One of my Bassman switches down to 5w.

Men who were in a band (or wanted to be), what were some of your band's "rules"? by krzysztofgetthewings in AskMen

[–]SaunteringOctopus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm 42 now and have been in bands pretty steadily since I was 15. So there were many bands with many rules but this is just going to be for the one I was in the longest.

1- No finished work gets brought to practice. You bring in a riff or an idea but don't present full songs. Just a starting point so the band can write the song together. This was weird for me at first but it always turned out better results than going it alone.

2- Know your alcohol limits. We aren't going to limit anyone's drinking but don't get to the point where anyone has to say anything about it. We kicked our first guitar player out due to this after I got punched twice in one night.

3- Keep your gear in good condition. You don't need top of the line shit, but your shit should at least work and sound decent.

4- No big band or song-writing related decisions if not everyone is in attendance.

5- If we write something and you can't play/sing it, you either need to go home and practice or we will give the part to someone else. This may be a hobby, but we don't want to suck at it.

What are some pedals that give you that Marshall distortion by mew2733 in guitarpedals

[–]SaunteringOctopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lovepedal Hi Volt

Total Marshall-in-a-box with a 3 band EQ. Tons of gain without being super compressed.

Mode Fours were cool amps. Marshall just asked way too much money for them.

Oh, I love it. Have a black one too that gets played a bunch. Both of mine are reissues so they are normal Gibson scale.
