No joke, I bought that on vinyl from a yard sale as a gag. Listened to it sometime later & couldn’t believe how much I enjoyed it.

I accepted a long time ago, that most people who ask my opinion on anything guitar-related have no intention of putting said knowledge to use. Sounds like she needs to find a teacher who has long nails & can show her how to play with them.

He sounds just as good live, if you ever get a chance to see him.

I bought mine new around 2004 & haven’t had issues with it.

After years of running a multi channel midi switching rig with all the fx I could ever want, I switched to running a VHT deliverance straight in & loved it. Used my volume knob to silence in between songs. I was actually annoyed some years later when I joined another band that called for a more...

I’ve not done a close comparison like that, but the looping function on my Timeline & DL4 sound just a tiny bit quieter & darker than my RC1. They all work fine for me, just playing something to noodle over. However, the boss is much more handy when I want to loop a phrase to dial in pedal or...

As a rule, yes... Realistically though, I don't think any small to mid-sized outfit could produce decent guitar in the US for less than $1500-2k. When you consider shops located in say CA; with the high cost of real estate, taxes, labor, etc. $2500-3500 for something with a nice maple top &...

If my setup doesn’t surpass my chops tenfold, I don’t want it.

I’m in the minority who likes the way they look. I played a handful of them years ago when you’d see used ones around in shops from time to time, always enjoyed the chance to do so.

The most I've spent on one is around $4k, and realistically that's about where my upper limit is.

I would either get a cheap donner for $50, or spend the money for a cioks, strymon, voodoo, etc.

I was a little disappointed with my badlander 50 initially, as I was expecting more of a recto flavor than what it offered. Then I took it to our rehearsal space, made a few tweaks over the course of a few sessions, and absolutely fell in love with it. I was primary playing a 7 string in drop...

Looks fantastic!!

I’ve used “Mesa” tubes in their amps for years, because they are a solid choice. They also cost twice as much as they once did, so I’ll use something else next time I need a set.
