Re: Whats your' latest gear acquisition?

Jury is still out on these. Solid strings out of the box. We'll see how well they hold up. The balanced 10-48 set is interesting. Threw off my setup (I usually play 10-46) a lot more than I expected. Nothing a little tweaking couldn't fix. I do like the idea of a subscription service, because I know...

Re: Let's talk about cables.

i've mostly been using pig hog cables for the last couple of years,
but recently i ordered two cables for my band rig from these guys:

Not cheap - but very cool, and the quality seems great. No issues so far. You can get custom lengths using their cable builder

Re: NPD Sola Sound Yellow Hybrid Tone Bender

That's so awesome. I'm completely jealous. The Pedal Show guys are serious Tonebender enablers and I'm trying to stay out of the rabbit hole myself. It's just that they sound...soooo...goooooood.

Re: NPD Sola Sound Yellow Hybrid Tone Bender

Tried yellow out for a bit at practice last night. Sounds pretty wild in front of my twin. It can hang with the freakenbender better than I expected.

Still going to keep this guy at home for now though. This morning I worked it into my home board

I found a local shop that buys used gear. They can't match the prices I could probably sell for on reverb or craigslist, but they make it so painless and efficient I'll happily deal with them. And I'm not dealing with shipping or fees, so it seems pretty fair. They've even checked in with me to see ...
