Thanks! I totally missed some lines during one song and sounded like shit most of the times I was singing, though.Harry_Manback wrote:Sounds great guys.AxAxSxS wrote:Here's pretty much the whole show from last Saturday at the Comet Tavern-

This is really cool man...that sleep cover is freaking great...I'm pretty sure you played it better than Pike plays it these days!AxAxSxS wrote:Here's pretty much the whole show from last Saturday at the Comet Tavern-
Not the greatest but not the worst recording either.
Thanks for checking it out...conky wrote:

Nice score man...did you get the philosopher tone as well...i bought one a while ago and really didn't like it. Compared to my MXR custom comp it didn't have that much more sustain (audible to me anyway) and it added a shit load more noise which didn't matter on high gain stuff, but on clean it was really horrible. I guess the grit function it different, but i didn't really like that either.Ancient Astronaught wrote:So as far as my weekend.... I went to the used gear store to pickup an infiniti looper and philosphers tone. Well we get there and they have both pedals but I find out their new so they can't do much as far as discounts, and I brought a bunch of PA gear I wasn't using and they needed to test and were really busy so me and Skully went to lunch. When we came back they had sold the infinity looper!So I was like shit what else do they have here that I could trade for..... Walking down the amp aisles I found this lil beasty!
I got it for the same value as the looper and the comp!!!!! So it had to come home with me. It's a Sterling Imports era modded to 70's single channel OL specs and has the reverb and fx loop bypassed as well as a "high gain mod". And it came with Mullard (new not NOS) power tubes, and the service tag from the mod's / restore was on the inside of the chassis from 2009, looks like it was recapped and everything. It's cleaner on the inside then the outside
On comp side of things...I'm thinking of buying the MI Audio Compressor which has built in noise gate as well...seems like a pretty good comp.

Thanks man, we're still feeling things out and I think it will only get batter and more refined as time goes on.conky wrote:Those Infinite Flux videos are pretty rad.
Ryder and I had a discussion with Uta Plotkin from Witch mountain about in ear monitors, I really admire her control vocally and she was saying that it's a big help with that and keeps her from oversinging. Anybody here try them? I'd like to give it a shot but know nothing about them and dont want to just start spending money blindly on less than adequate gear.

The Drop Electric singer used them live, if you don't have a good soundman or monitor man they can actually hinder you. All though she did say that when they were working correctly they helped immensely in being able to hear herself and what she was singing, and I could definitely tell she was on pitch alot more with them. That's about the extent of my experience with them.AxAxSxS wrote:Thanks man, we're still feeling things out and I think it will only get batter and more refined as time goes on.conky wrote:Those Infinite Flux videos are pretty rad.

Thanks man! Unfortunately I didn't have any extra scratch for the philosophers tone and they couldn't knock it down that much due to it being new. So I'm watching a couple on the bay right now as they seem to go for around 100$ on there, I'm not as worried about adding sustain as I am note clarity in complex chords under high gain. I would definitely keep the grit on zero, and the noise can come from any comp you just gotta be real careful about the threshold setting. My boards so far are dead silent so hopefully it would be too. The main thing that attracts me to it is the controls are what I'm looking for and the sideways layout would be perfect for pairing it up with my dunwich booster as my always on pedals that could be placed out of the way on my board, any other comp would have to be sideways on my board. It's weird cause thats what most people hated about it but its perfect for me, another horses for courses i guess.samzadgan wrote:Nice score man...did you get the philosopher tone as well...i bought one a while ago and really didn't like it.

Yeah she was saying it was something you would want to learn to set up yourself or it wouldn't help. Guess I'll start checking out reviews and such.

Skip, fucking ace on that Hiwatt. Congrats, man!
The 4003 bass is stunning. Nice one!
Congrats on the Agile. I hope it's killer. I used to be highly into Agile back when I was rocking 7 and 8-string guitars in modern metal outfits, but I lost interest in them. Now I just buy Japanese Fenders and shit.
Have a great time in Italy, Brett. I don't need to say that. We all know you will.
Awesome videos of your Infinite Flux show. I'm watching the videos now.
I'm feeling really uninspired musically. Damn it.

Thanks bud! Nick's gonna walk me through some additional mods to add some more low end to the amp, its got beastly mids and highs but its lacking in the lows department. Maybe I'm just spoiled though due to my custom 6550 and kt88 amps.
