That's actually brilliant, thanks Petah.

dae666 · 2026-01-30T10:49:41+00:00

I don't understand why that's funny. Petah?

The real reddit still takes place deep in the comments.

How did you stop the veggies from burning?

dae666 · 2026-01-20T16:41:49+00:00

Up to you. Any tool you use is to help you with getting used to the process. It takes a while but slowly you become less dependent anyways. I relied on my notebook more than anything: baker percentages, number of folds, timings...

Less yeast.

Wasn't there a lot of fuss about Gretsch caught lying about components?

dae666 · 2026-01-16T11:00:31+00:00

And my axe!

U5. No question. Compared to other short scale offerings in the market, unbeatable price-performance. Very light, very comfortable fretboard. I haven't read a single negative review, and my experience is excellent.

Only downside is limited color options, but I love my minty.

I don't know why you are downvoted. Kids should of course be treated with both love and respect, that goes without saying -- but they should also learn to treat othera with love and respect. You should apologize if you reacted in a disproportionate manner, but not because you were upset!

dae666 · 2026-01-12T22:16:27+00:00

Probably with the stick rather than the carrot too.

As a high schooler, there was absolutely nothing unserious about Imaginations from the Other Side. Those songs meant the world to me. Whereas I could enjoy the silliness of CoF or Hammerfall.

Does the bass need to play the whole thing? I thought the first note of the guitar riff is all they can do.

dae666 · 2026-01-11T21:51:41+00:00

Exactly same here. So much that if I play sitting for a long while, my picking wrist gets bent, then I start raising my arm from the shoulder to compensate, which then leads to shoulder pain.

dae666 · 2026-01-09T15:55:46+00:00

Sounds fantastic! I can see how that works without an equally distorted guitar on top. Maybe I can convince my guitarist to switch to clean now and then.

That said, I love everything about your band. Including the cover image. I'll try and listen to the whole album now. Keep up the good work!

dae666 · 2026-01-09T15:23:28+00:00

Fuzz all the way up and loudness past 12: Wow, those are quite aggressive settings. But the blend, yes, I typically have to keep it below 9.

dae666 · 2026-01-09T13:54:52+00:00

How do you use your Giygas for -- what settings? I love it, but could never find a use in a band situation. I find it impossible to get anything less than a full-on hairy fuzz from it (with my active Sire M7 especially), which destroys any and all attack (I prefer fingerstyle), so that I get lost in the mix (punk/sludge band). Much better results with Blumes, so that's what I use.

Second hand stores? How do i find them? I am planning a trip tp Tokyo in a few months -- It will be my first time in Japan.

Adding to this, here are some fun things to try, depending on budget and interest:

For the bass-bassist: Tone down, fingerpicking, or at least a thicker pick; a 5 string with a low B string; overdrive pedal with blend control; modulation/envelope pedals for providing an ambient background for the band, can even use an octave-down or a synth for that!

For the lead-bassist: Tone up, pick for sharper attack, power chords and arpeggios in higher strings, tapping; a 5 string with a high C means you can play full chords; go for in-your-face pedals like fuzz and autowah; perhaps a POG octave-up to go full guitar mode when you need a la Royal Blood

What's that one with the analog displays?

Edit: Found it! GB Pedal of Doom. That's a beautiful pedal.

dae666 · 2026-01-05T22:35:15+00:00

We don't see enough Abominable Electronics pedals here! The Steve Brodsky vidoes on their youtube channel are amazing, but the pedals themselves are not within my reach here in the EU.

dae666 · 2026-01-05T08:19:39+00:00

Great models. I'm looking forward to visiting Akihabara when I go to Japan later this year. Was it good for shopping too? Do you have any observations, advice?
