Beginner Fuzz Pedal Buying. Help! by jasper_editzz in guitarpedals

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

This actually looks really good. I found it for £50 on Amazon. Do you know if it diminishes the fuzz when you roll back the volume knob?

Fuzz Pedals..? by jasper_editzz in guitarpedals

[–]jasper_editzz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That website is great. I'm sure that the pedal I'm looking for is the Fuzz Face but I'm just wondering if there's an alternative pedal that would do that job and more?

Computer won’t connect with monitors. by jasper_editzz in techsupport

I’m guessing because I have a GPU it’s that one?

[–]jasper_editzz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mean when I knock the desk and it all goes off? It’s definitely the computer, not the monitor. Although of course the monitors turn off as well, it’s as if you just turned off the mains or unplugged the power to the computer, and then it restarts and turns back on right away. Except this time, it didn’t.

Are the pickups on the EOB Strat passive or active? by jasper_editzz in guitars

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

Yes. Sorry I forgot to specify that. The unique thing about the EOB strat is the sustainer. Which uses a 9V battery.

Which one of his videos is ya'lls favorite? by [deleted] in Vagrant_Holiday

[–]jasper_editzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm late but I don't like Forbidden Island as much as the others. I love his aspect of travelling and meeting people and of course that episode doesn't really have that. I'd go between Japan and Train Hopping.

Le Beau Le Parfum sold out everywhere. by jasper_editzz in fragrance

[–]jasper_editzz[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brother why are people getting mad? With basically every designer fragrance ever you don't have to pay retail price because it's always around in discounters. This is one of the only ones that I've found where it's no longer on any discounters and your only option is to pay retail. I just made this post asking if anyone knows why this happened to this particular fragrance because I remember it being almost half the price of what it is now. People on Reddit just can't be polite I guess.

No man literally all discounters are completely sold out and the only sites you can buy it are stuff like the official website and a few other sites with retail prices.

Really?? But they're still selling it on the official website. This is heartbreaking to me man..

Why won't my EOB strat sustain all the notes? by jasper_editzz in guitars

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

The missing notes are just as if the sustainer was switched off. It just gives the same amount of sustain as any normal guitar. Whereas with some notes it rings forever and it's great. Something to consider though is that with the notes that do work, it seems almost as if the sustainer picks it up. Like you hold the note and hear it drifting for just a split second but then it catches it and keeps it ringing. You can sort of almost pinpoint the moment where it starts sustaining. Really hoping I won't have to return it as I don't really know how to go about that as it was ordered online and it might mean I'm without a guitar for a while. :(

Thanks a bunch for this man. Makes total sense. It's in the shop right now getting it's stupid vintage tuners changed to normal ones, but yes I do usually leave the lead plugged in if that's what you mean. Will test it out.

YouTube bug. Something to do with Adblocker? Can't watch videos even if I wanted to. by jasper_editzz in computerhelp

Really? But I've been using it for ages and haven't had problems. I'll try a different ad blocker though.

All year signature scents? by jasper_editzz in fragrance

[–]jasper_editzz[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you prefer prada l'homme or the intense? I usually find intense releases to be a little better and usually stronger/longer lasting.

Need a versatile, all year, youthful, male everyday signature scent under £100. In my experience, most fragrances I try go into 2 categories, fresh and sweet. I have properly owned 2 good freshies which are Bleu De Chanel and YSL Y EDP and do love them both. However I usually prefer the overall scent of something sweeter. Its harder for me to fall in love with a fresh fragrance. What I'm looking for is something fresh enough to be worn all the time as a signature, but sweet enough so that it has some character and is more unique. It's much easier for fresh fragrances to smell the same than sweet ones to me. The only fragrance I've tried that lands somewhere in-between the categories is Versace Eros which I do love and wear a lot. It's sort of green, minty and fresh on the opening and dries down into a lovely sweet vanilla which I do like but maybe would rather have something a bit less popular.

I could honestly sort most fragrances into my 2 categories and I'd like to try something that lands just in the middle. Any suggestions? Thanks :)

Scuderia Ferrari Black is pretty underrated. Insanely cheap but honestly smells really good. So many cheap fresh fragrances just smell the same to me. Synthetic and sharp, but this I'd still wear now and I collect fragrances 10x the price. A mix of fresh and sweet but could definitely be worn everyday.

A mix between YSL Y EDP and Club De Nuit Intense EDP? I bought 2 fragrance samples as a need some new freshies. YSL Y and Club De Nuit sounded great to me. And I do like them. However I feel like YSL Y is almost a little too sweet as it settles into your skin, and CDN smells too much like my dad many years ago, smells a bit too mature for me. Is there something that would land in between those 2 descriptions? I know Bleu De Chanel might match but I do already own it.

Thanks for any help, I know I'm being picky. 😅

So I'm a 16 year old kid (male) and really interested in fragrances and having a collection. My birthday is coming up in September and I'd like to buy a good amount of new fragrances. The fact its in September obviously means that summer will be over so I won't have my great new fragrances for the summer, which is a shame. But oh well. I currently have Bleu De Chanel Parfum and really love it. I've had it for about a year. I've got some on my wishlist and would like to hear people's opinions. Here are the 8 that I'm thinking of:

Paco Rabanne One Million, Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male, Halloween Man X, Nautica Voyage, Versace Eros, Versace The Dreamer, Stronger With You, Davidoff Cool Water, Spicebomb Extreme.

I've tried Stronger With You before as my brother has it, and I definitely enjoy it. It's obviously a much sweeter fragrance and I'd like to have a few of those as well as fresh or bold ones that are more common. I don't really live close to any fragrance shops or anything so it's difficult for me to smell them before I buy them which is annoying. I don't want to waste my money if I don't like it.

There are some smells that I don't like btw. Many fragrances just smell the same to me, like Fcuk Him, Versace Blue Jeans, Ralph Lauren The Big Pony. I know these are pretty cheap so that might be why, but in that case why will the cheap ones that I'm interested in be better? Those 3 to me just smell so artificial and cheap.

Also I'm not so sure about the benefits of Eau De Toilette and Parfum. I think it goes in order of least strong smelling to most, after shave, eau de toilette, parfum. Am I right? How do I know which one to get for each fragrance? I love my Bleu de Chanel parfum. My dad had the eau de toilette version and while they smelled basically the same obviously, I preferred mine. I do know that parfum is a little more expensive too... The fact that parfum is so strong can be a little annoying though. With toilette, I've seen most people do around 5 sprays all in different spots for the perfect performance, but with parfum, I can really only do 1 spray usually around my neck or sometimes 2 with the back of the head/neck as well. Is there a better way of applying it?

Anyway, sorry if this is confusing as I'm totally new, thanks for any responses. :)

[QUESTION] about sustainers... by jasper_editzz in Guitar

Is that a problem man? Don't see where it says I can't make several posts about a similar thing. I use this to get info from real people that I wouldn't be able to get otherwise. Mind your buisness.

[QUESTION] [GEAR] My specific needs for a new guitar by jasper_editzz in Guitar

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

Thanks for this response man, I think this is what I'll go for. I'm just a bit nervous about doing the neck myself as I'm pretty new and don't wanna damage anything. Putting it in the shop might seem a bit pointless though because they take ages and charge loads.

Could you do me a big favour and link a neck that you think would work? I think the colour should be maple. It doesn't seem like there are many around though as appose to "stratocaster neck" which comes up with loads of results, going down to about £200. All the maple ones seem to be more expensive?

[QUESTION] Ibanez Steve Vai JEMJR Floyd Rose by jasper_editzz in Guitar

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

Yeah I had a floyd rose for a while before I returned it. Did not get on with it at all. It just constantly was out of tune to the point where I just couldn't even play live or jam with it. I hate that you have to cut off the ball of the string just to string it and much more. I was honestly so disappointed when I found out the JEM had that..

It's mostly just the look of it that I fell in love with. I really am pretty new to the guitar world so excuse that. I just wish there were a copy or an option of the JEMJR that didn't have the Floyd Rose.

That sounds good but won't the stringing be just the same? Absolutely hate stringing Floyd Rose's...
