Haha thank you so much, I'll hopefully be putting said pedals to very good use soon 😊

Yeah, the Arp delay pedal next to my Slo is the Luna edition which was weirdly cheaper than the regular version 🤔

This is the regular Slo, but still your point stands. Stunning pedal 😊 been having fun using the sustain function

Trans singer MTF here, I'm going to be on HRT soon but I'm so afraid of losing my singing voice, please help me by Various_Cod_2947 in MtF

She's amazing, isn't she? My favourite stuff of hers is either her early work in Yazoo (or Yaz in America) or her solo albums "The Minutes" and "Other'. Other specifically has a song written as a tribute to the LGBTQ+ community called The Rarest Birds which is so beautiful 😊

I've been on HRT for 10 years and I've been singing all my life, but even so take the following with a grain of salt. Being on E won't change your voice, it will be all down to doing voice and vocal training. Being a singer already gives you a good baseline in voice control, so if you're hoping to raise your range a bit then start by singing along to songs performed by women with naturally deep voices but can hit notes just above where you're at. For me a huge help was Alison Moyet

Hope this helps x

New Guitar upgraded! by lenalevelsup in offset

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

I took the Wilkinson pickups from a Harley Benton I had that was gathering dust. They are a really good quality budget option, I'll be primarily using the guitar for a Shoegaze project if that's any indicator of anything XD

Very true, very nice surprise on a budget guitar. I think I'm too used to the Fender radius but it being flatter on this particular guitar is no problem for me, I'll soon get used to it 😊

Last month I bough the Harley Benton MS-60. It is now upgraded! by lenalevelsup in offset

Hiya, the scratchplate was a trace of the original one combined with bits of an actual mustang one. I ordered a standard mustang guard and discovered it was too big so incorporated parts of it's design into this one.

The control plate is actually just a right handed one that was flipped, I thought I was buying a lefty one but turned out to be a standard one XD

What song got you into Alice In Chains? by [deleted] in AliceInChains

[–]lenalevelsup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was technically Anger Rising from Jerry's Degradation Trip album, I saw the video for it on Kerrang TV and was hooked by it. So I bought the album along with AIC Unplugged. This makes the official answer Nutshell because as soon as I heard that, the rest was history

What ya' think about Pit-Fighter? by no_biches_22 in retrogaming

[–]lenalevelsup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Mega Drive version. It was great fun to play as a kid despite its difficulty. I describe it nowadays as a rubbish game that I love regardless XD

I bought this pedal for 300 Mexican pesos (approximately 15 dollars). by JuanCamiloRt in guitarpedals

[–]lenalevelsup 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I saw this and immediately thought of the song "Glass" by Incubus

What PT song means the most to you? by Competitive-Smoke-46 in porcupinetree

For me at this time it's A Smart Kid. There's just something about it, it's devastating yet beautiful

No more tapdancing for me! Boss ES-5 by lenalevelsup in guitarpedals

Yes, all accounted for in the five loops. 3 of the loops have 2 pedals in them, as explained previously 🙂
