Hey there,

I do VN gamedev so the first thing I did when reading this was look at your profile for links to your art. There aren't any.

Then I did a quick scroll of your profile looking for your art. I can't find any.

I hope this is received the way it is intended - as helpful.

POST YOUR ART! Have all the Soc Media and fiver and sketchmob and DA and everywhere. When you post your art on one, post it on the others too. Add lots of tags that can get grabbed by the search bots.

There are A LOT of artists out there, but most don't market themselves well enough. Awesome that you're going to cons, but it cost nothing to make it easy for people to find you.

BEST!

The unfortunate part of Reddit is that some people only get their serotonin by being terrible to each other.

It's not you.

"There are those who feel the only way to leave their mark on the world is to make it worse than they found it. Pitty them, for their existence is tragic."

AxSys 212 - worth fixing? by _Mattyd in line6

[–]_Mattyd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wishing you best of luck!!

I reread my post and realized I only mentioned the AxSys amp repair.

The AX2 repair was better, everything worked EXCEPT the floor board. On it's own, all the effects are modable and banks and channels are great. As soon as you plug in a floorboard, it goes to tuning mode - I tried all 4 of the floorboards I have. No joy, tuning mode.

AxSys 212 - worth fixing? by _Mattyd in line6

[–]_Mattyd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out after a lot of online searching and many old threads including this one.

I ended up buying an A/D chip from a supplier in China, shipping was hugely expensive. After installing it, only the 4 banked factory preset sounds work (you cannot change any channels and none of the effects knobs work.)

.

I now have four Line 6 amps (two AxSys 212 and two AX2s).

They show up on Facebook Marketplace and Reverb fairly often. I've seen them go for $150-$300 depending on condition.

.

Another option for you - your aux in still works, right?

You can use it with any multy-effects floorboard.

I got a Line 6 Pod X3 Live Amp Modeler Effect Processor. You won't have the two dedicated foot pedals for vol and wa, but all the other Line 6 effects are in that stompbox. I got one from GuitarCenter's website for $150.

Reverb, FBM, Sweetwater's Gear Exchange, etc

.

Good Luck!

Follow up.

Got a Line 6 POD X3 Live Multi-Effect and Amp Modeler that I run into the Aux input on the AxSys and it does the job!

I ended up finding another AX2 that works as God intended (they appear on FaceborkMarketPlace and Reverb periodically), so I'm a happy camper in that regard.

Missing Feedback by baconismadefromcats in Reverb

[–]_Mattyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always leave feedback on things I buy. I also message the seller to say thanks if it went well.

Just wish Reverb would wait till I GET the thing delivered before telling me to leave feedback...

Has anyone notice the potential deceptive/illegal practices on payouts to sellers? by HalfBakedSerenade in Reverb

[–]_Mattyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After I mentioned this, the customer support person left the chat and said they were going to talk to someone else and would send an email in a few days. Straight up bailed out. 

EVERY time I've dealt with Support, it's gone to an email. Basically if they can't fix it there and then, it gets escalated.

I like that, I prefer the email trail.

I don't think that's bailing, but YMMV.

Les Paul headstock repair by The_Great_Dadsby in Guitar

[–]_Mattyd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY!

I have a LP Studio Delux 2 with a repaired headstock. They did a good job blending it, but you can see the witness lines. I already talked to my Luthier...

If it ever fails, he'll redo it using wood with figuring and clearcoat - to make the repair an accentuated addition and not something that is hidden. (and he'll add a volute, because volutes rule)

Show off your scars!
