you make music?

I've always used 10s since starting out and jamming in various bands at the snotty age of 15.

There's something about bashing that lower E string with gusto. May switch to 11s though for the SG that's tuned to C.

The Korg Monotron is giving me ideas.

Sweet!

I have the monotron duo. it is awesome. I used it for some tracks recently.

Even the Monotron Delay sounds crazy good. I was looking at demos on Youtube last night to pass the time.

Hey, soundcloud it sometime. I'd love to hear what the device is capable of doing.

[lakeside resort]

okay. I'm not sure what type of music you do, but I used it for "notes" as opposed to crazy synth noises, though there is one portion of the song where I used it to add some crazy freakout sounds in the background.

the monotribe synth looks awesome too. I want one. http://www.korg.com/monotribe

Fender will finally be releasing a Squier lineup of their classic offset guitars. It's a bitch to see prices for Jazzmasters, Jaguars, and Mustangs go off the roof. BTW, it's still a bitch to find those J Mascis Squier Jazzmasters for some strange reason.

At least I can now rock like Johnny Marr (okay...perhaps tweak it a bit to get a four-way switch on the upper horn instead of the stock parallel switches that the models come with).

I noticed recently that the original J Mascis signature guitar (which IIRC wasn't a Squier) isn't even available anymore. The only one available is the Squier version. And, it's in a different color scheme.

Honestly, if I played more, I'd consider selling my PRS Hollowbody 2 to buy the Johnny Marr signature guitar. Really intrigued with the alterations he had made to it from the stock version.

[Goner]

Yeah. I think the purple Fender Mascis model was discontinued. The artist models that Fender has been endorsing from a similar standpoint are the Lee Ranaldo and Thurston Moore Jazzmasters. I actually wish Fender would come up with a Nels Cline custom Jazzmaster.

As for the Johnny Marr Jaguar, ask and you shall receive. Here's a pdf you can geek out on if you want to see the parts layout, assemble a replica with a parts list, and check out the wiring and switch control diagrams.

You must think I actually have the time or wherewithal to do this myself.

But, regardless, I love that link. love being able to see what's inside the black box!

[Goner]

Yeah. You have enough hobbies. You really should pick one more up, joetron *lol*

This is my old band's bandcamp page: http://thepostops.bandcamp.com/

The last time we recorded was the beginning of 2012, then our second drummer moved. We had the Spinal Tap problem where we couldn't keep a drummer.

[nagasawa]

Any post ops in the band? Any pics?

[lakeside resort]

yeah, I once had my tooth operated on, and the drummer had to get a new heart.
