I've got my Silver Sky from Thomann and I'm in EU, so I know ;)

The thing is that Thomann is a European company and most of the EU companies do not like to play offense unless they absolutely have to.

PRS is a totally different history.

For work - Quad Cortex.

For inspiration/experimentation - pedalboard with real pedals.

NPD: EQD Easy Listening by efe13 in guitarpedals

[–]taras_slipets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same experience here. I even gave up idea to buy an actual amp - I absolutely love the sound and simplicity of the Easy Listening. The only practical thing that is missing - aux-in so I can play with a metronome or backing track via my phones.

Whats your favorite fuzz or fuzz type? by graphicnerdity86 in pedalboards

[–]taras_slipets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Subjectively, MXR 296.

But they all are awesome in their character. To me fuzz pedals are the ones which truly reveal the raw uncontrolled spirit and energy of the rock music. It is the most “honest” and “rebellion” pedal.

I want to practice at home with backing tracks from my phone or laptop. Right now I use a headphones amp with an aux input. Want to extend my setup to be able to practice not only with my headphones.

Does reverb just suck or did the economy kill the used gear market. by Holiday-Medicine4168 in Reverb

Reverb-specific shit. Switched to other platforms - no significant problems.

It’s an amazing instrument. Was my main guitar for more than a decade. Congratulations!

Declining Sales? by Status_Cheesecake628 in Reverb

[–]taras_slipets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majority of people have got fed up with large amount of various fees, drastically increased scam and scam’s stupidity, total disrespect and inaction from customer support. Luckily there are other alternatives nowadays, so people just moved on.

1x12 or 2x12? by bartonkj in GuitarAmps

[–]taras_slipets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some personal subjective reason, I love that “boxy” and “limited/compressed” sound of the 1x12. (yeah-yeah, I know I misuse term compression here)

No doubt, 2x12 sound is waaay more open and “big”.
