You never seen a Mosrite before Scotty? I dig that guitar and that's even before knowing that Johnny (the right wing nut job) Ramone loved them. Our peso is worth about 50-52p, so like Tom says it's about £200

Seems a strange one. He's obviously not part of the leadership team and he's not good enough in Eddie's mind to replace any of our defence, when they are out dead on their legs, and yet we are happy to offer another year? Lascelle, in the games he's played this season, has proven himself more than capable as 3rd or 4th choice, is the club captain and yet we are happy for him to fuck off for nothing in the summer. Is there something weird going on or is he just on buttons?

There's a guy here in Brisbane called Tym Guitars, who builds the occasional guitar - you have to be really lucky to get one, either perfect timing for when it goes on his site or for him to offer to make you one. Most of his guitars are a Mosrite shape but since covid he's started making them chambered bodies and out of pine laminate. He's got the weight for them down to about 3-3.5kg, which is impressive. https://tymguitars.com.au/products/tmi-custom-sbv-2022 https://tymguitars.com.au/products/tmi-custom-jrs-sb75-2022 https://tymguitars.com.au/products/tmi-custom-jrh-sb79 - Les Paul Jnr @3kg!

If he gets CT and Gemmill around he can sing two little boys.

Funny you mention that, I've just finished building a jazzcaster/telemaster depending who you ask and have spent the last hour adjust the bridge to lose the buzz and get the intonation right, well as close as you can with a three saddle bridge. And still there is a slight buzz in the fucking B string! So over the weekend it will be clean the frets up and if that doesn't work and check the truss. I can imagine it's nice and light but the aesthetics just does not appeal, I'm not judging, to each their own.

Is it just me, it probably is, but the no headstock thing of both Steinberger and Strandberg (surely they must be related) freaks me out.

You'll be getting your wobble board out next, won't you Rolf?

Rob, also try to remember, it isn't a suppository.

A wonky willy at that!

Wembley of the upper midlands, doesn't quite have the same GOT ring about it.

Ten Fraud will send his lot out to keep it tight, Villa will either nick it with an Onana own goal from Ollie Watkin's arse or it will be the bore draw it deserves to be.

Martin Tyler is doing the comms on the feed we are getting here - fuck me, he needs to retire. Talking about how good Villa have been at home and how Chelsea are doing something special, hey you silly auld cunt, Eddie's ragtag band of merry men broke a hole in that dam two weeks ago. But no the new Chelsea are here - fuck off.

Actually maybe it was the original Heavy Metal.

Or don't..

Missold, shirley?

I was reading somewhere those thing are worth a bomb these days! Fuck knows why the DF-02 were a much better pedal.

I, this is where my knowledge let's me down, the actual measurements, what is the actual difference between instrument and line level? it's not much is it? As a kid before I could afford an amp I remember using the mic input on a boom box!

Probably best example is Blastronaut's overdrive that we all know - compare the volume with that on and off, off you are at line level, on (obviously depending on how you have it set but with everything at 100%) it is pushing the signal level to above line, hence why you get a rise in volume without changing anything on the amp. So in effect it is working as a preamp, albeit lower powered version.

No, line level is what a passive pickup guitar provides already, it's the preamp that boosts it, hence why running the Helix into the input, you are getting a preamp going into another preamp, which has more chance of blowing the physical preamp stage. But it's also pretty difficult to fuck solid state amp those things are like Russian spaceflight shite, unless you pour water on it.

Yeah so that's just a solid state powered speaker that would run off line level input.

No, you are right, it's purely the speaker box sound, as stated above. So if you are picking say an AC30, then that is the pre and power and amp (this would be the head in a physical amp), then if you match it to say to 2 x 12" Celestion speaker box, you would be creating a digital version of an AC30 combo amp. But none of these have the physical output to drive an actual speaker box. Probably the most basic way to explain it all. A turntable > phono stage = line level A passive pickup guitar/mic/cd player = line level Active pickups = above line level, not pre amp level Guitar passive pickups <provides power for/signal back > Preamp level > power amp = driving speakers Does that make sense?

I forgot to mention, those cabinet models are also for live performers who no long use individual amps but all plug in to the PA. I remember reading about Low totally ditching amps and through a gig, they would use different cabinet model plugins for different songs, allowing them not to be locked into a single amp sound.

Not Blastronaut or Andrew but I can answer this, you still need a power amp to power the speaker cabinet, so by going in the effects loop, it bypasses the preamp. The head or a combo amp are actually what is called an intergrated amp, so signal>preamp>power amp>speaker. At one stage in the 80s bass players started just buying preamps to tour with because as you can imagine a bass rig is huge and pain in the balls to lug around but their sound was formed with the preamp. edit: After a quick look at the Helix site, the helix cabinet model is just a speaker soundalike plug in for recording direct, so no it wouldn't have any bearing upon playing live with a speaker cabinet.

More likely we lose our best players who want to play in Europe and we struggle to get in players with aspirations to play at that level. So we end up with Phillip Billings and the like and those that keep harping on about upgrading Miggy will get even more chance. Footballers careers are short and the good players don't have a lot of patience.

They shouldn't bother with a midfield, just keeper>launch>hope some fucker gets their arse on it>goal
