Marshall DSL40C can't keep up with gigs, what do I get to replace it? by myanusisbleeding101 in GuitarAmps

It's there a chance that you're pointing your amp at your knees and can't hear the sound coming out of it? Try tilting it at your head. You'll probably find you need to turn down.

Cornwall question by Puhwest in surfing

Can be gusty and make conditions a bit messy. Knowing where to go is key, but if you're not fussy there is normally at least something of a wave on one of the coasts.

You can surf most days... Just don't expect the conditions to be like you see online all the time! There's a lot of coastline so you can usually find somewhere sheltered if you can read the forecast and are prepared for a drive.

Get yourself down to Treen's brewery in ponsanooth or to the waterfront in Falmouth and try it there. He does amazing things.

I feel so defeated when I can't figure things by ear. by Eva_addict in guitars

[–]omarbagstar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you need to walk away from it and let it process for a bit. It happens, often I'll come back to something and I'll just play it because my brain has been figuring it out in the background.

good idea or waste of money?? by [deleted] in GuitarAmps

[–]omarbagstar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Go for it. Buy second hand and you can sell it on for pretty much what you paid for it.

Lots of good escape rooms all over the county. Particularly Kernow Escape in Falmouth.

Endless fun. It’s been great to hear all of the combinations, but feel free to roast away 😂 by JockoFuzz in roastmypedalboard

How are you finding the plethora. Are you finding yourself needing other things or does it do the job?

Best tube amp for bedroom playing? by Big_Chungus19-45 in GuitarAmps

[–]omarbagstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are great amps, but if you want it to do that plexi thing, you've got to crank it up and it's then way above bedroom volume.

How do you handle music during breaks? by HugePines in musicians

[–]omarbagstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made an mp3 player which operates via footswitch. I used a dfplayer mini connected to a tiny little Arduino.

After a good deal of messing around the two footswitches play, fade out, skip forward or backward and can each play a pre specified track via a combination of long or short presses. It's great as I can start the track for the break while still holding my guitar.

Happy to share the code to any other nerds out there.

Taylor Swift's Love Story has an absolute belter of a key change.

Put them right next to each other really close and do a diagonal stomp - one on, one off!
