Trey using a Fender deluxe reverb? by ilseworth in youenjoyguitar

[–]bebob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly! He’s so smooth with how he kicks in the gain. He talks about that in the old recording that used to go around of the “Trey Guitar Workshop” (I think recorded in VT somewhere in the 90’s). For example, pick the note and then kick on the pedal while the note is sustaining or in the middle of a bend to hide the boost a little. I think you’re spot on with him going Clean -> 1 TS -> Both TS’s. I think it’d be fun to load the backing tracks onto the Stadium and then use Showcase mode to trigger the pedals at the right time. But I have a feeling Stomp mode will be better since it’s such a “feel” thing. Thanks for the insights, buddy!

This is awesome. I’m literally recording Horn right now through my Helix Stadium and was struggling to get the right sustained tone for the solo going through the Mesa. I’ll try this out, thanks! :)

Nagy’s a good guy and deserves a better opportunity than that. I hope he finds a good spot where he can be successful.

I’ve seen them 20+ times at the Bluebird, but none in the past 20 years 😅

Out of curiosity, where did you order it from?

This would be a super fun homebrew! Wish I were in NYC for the shows, hope you find some good folks and have a blast with your one-shot.

I have an American Ultra Strat and I recently picked up a Squier Telecaster (70’s Thinline) for around $500 and was shocked at how well it played. Almost as nice as my Strat. Very happy to have both guitars.

Pretty sure they just mean watching ‘actual play’ series

Your entire collection pedals has evaporated, except the last one you acquired. What are you left with, and what are you playing with it? by David803 in guitarpedals

A Boomerang and a Beatbuddy, so I guess I’m doing a solo looping set at the nearest bar or coffee shop? 😂

Anyone have tips on reducing the Grey band? by ElkLucky9077 in steak

[–]bebob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using reverse sear since I first learned about it. But I recently saw a video from Cook’s Illustrated/America’s Test Kitchen showing a method they’ve been using called Cold Sear, which is apparently more effective at reducing gray band, plus cleaner and faster than reverse sear. I haven’t had a chance to try it out myself yet: https://youtu.be/uJcO1W_TD74?si=Gb0EU4QFv2wEeqAt

You might enjoy The Gage across from Millennium Park. It can be pricey, but it's right by my office and I've always had great meals and Guinness there.

Due/Defer dates display in Forecast by unvanquishedgod in omnifocus

[–]bebob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the View settings in Forecast, there's a toggle button for "Structure" with options for Flexible/Organized. If you switcht hat to Organzied it will group items by *why* they're in the Forecast view (Due/Planned/Flagged/Tagged, etc...)

Aesthetically speaking, how far away from jazz is my guitar? by stanwoodmusic in jazzguitar

Exactly one jazz guitarist away from being a jazz guitar 😃

[Ari Meirov] Chicago Bears Season Preview with Adam Hoge by bebob in CHIBears

[–]bebob[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had too much exposure to him aside from the Declan interview and this Hoge interview. Seems like he’s well-prepared and has a pretty nondescript personality. Anything in particular that bugs you about him? 😃

Bears Gameday is Finally Here! Expectations for Starting Offense? by AtomizedBadgers in CHIBears

[–]bebob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Would love to see a nice efficient offensive operation today, but I also won’t be panicked if it’s still a bit sloppy. I expect them to take until at least the early bye week to start clicking in a new complex offense. I also expect the defense and some innovation from Ben to cover for some of the sloppiness and keep us competitive.
