Merry Christmas. Why was this guy putting his nuts on a fretboard in the first place though? https://www.gearnews.com/improve-your-guitar-fretboard-with-jefs-secret-walnut-trick/

I vaguely remember something about the Line 6 "insane" patch being used for parts of stockholm syndrome. Also, here's one. Not sure if a larger version exists, but you can clearly see one destroyer and 007 (this would have been after the repair) Not as brutal as what happened to the destroyer on the 20th! Makes the one in Hullabaloo look (almost) tame, although the outcome was pretty similar...

Oh right, where everyone gets an OC-2? I don't know of ANY Absolution era gig where he destroys an ibanez besides the second Earls Court show. There were plenty of them during the OOS tour though, which is probably what the record refers to... but then many of them were given away too. Also, sort of related, but he had those two guitars in his rack for at least six months it seems. You can see the necks at 3:59. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqCOzgYQsKI Guess it's possible that they were originally bought to prevent 007 from getting damaged again.

I can confirm that this rumor is true. What was that idea? I can't actually remember. He does, but it's not on the DVD. I have a super #LoRes video with no sound - he really goes for it instead of swinging it around a few times then throwing it away like the night before. And yes I believe that's why it wasn't used. It certainly wasn't in his rack at that show, and he was definitely throwing it around a bit in mid 2004. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tvAfHoesFo Also notice how the 4x12 falls off the front of the stage. Damn.

First that and now posting outside of K&T? It's almost like you're ditching me for Bs...which is sort of kinky (but in all the wrong ways) because I still consider Bs my bff You'll have to wait until Macaroon is here if you want a threesome... and then some... And I suggest we continue this stimulating and soon to be heated discussion. Maybe it's just a way to avoid getting into the The Guinness Book of World Records again. Surely he's broken more than on the Absolution tour? ...Which has to be incorrect anyway I can't think of any examples besides Earls Court night 2 where something actually got destroyed. Can't really count 007, and I don't think the Ibanez from Earls Court night 1 got any major damage.

Well there's that too, but also a very distant robotic sounding voice underneath the main vocal track at the beginning (although only for certain parts of it) And yeah, I've been liking how he's been adding the Morello influenced stuff into the live songs. Specifically that bit in Hysteria -
To add to that, the ones in the pressure intro. Actually didn't notice it until I removed the center track.
-
What did I say about spreading rumors? Your post has probably been copied to musewiki already. Is it a different guitar though? After all, there was that recent interview where Matt said only the neck or body will usually break and need replacing. So unless you replace both at the same time, it's still the same guitar... is it not?
-
Might be how it survived really Here's the interview I mentioned. Watch his hand movement closely in this video at around 5:22 and 5:32 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKGChUTiVXI And yeah, that was the point of updating the K&T FAQ a few years back. I had left out any information that I knew wasn't true or couldn't be confirmed. Still a decent reference for the pre-T2L era stuff I guess.
-
No idea mate. And that was from Wembley. It was repaired after that, only to be broken beyond repair by accident... Also See? That's all it is, and MB did mention it in an interview a while back (although he didn't say it was exactly that) This is why certain individuals shouldn't post rumors on musewiki...
-
Surprised they actually gave some answers for that! Was expecting to see the magic whammy toggle switching device on that list. I imagine they left that out because it was the most searched. I guess we'll never know...
-
Weird, your post isn't showing up in the list of threads in K&T.... only on the main page of the board. Actually, I think it might be worse than what Bs did to his MB-1.... But I can't find a picture of that, so you'll just have to substitute this
-
... This is like the time Bs shut the case lid on his MB-1, just it's not funny because I have no idea how this happened.
-
Did you say you were looking for a strat? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/manson-strat-electric-guitar/283288869677 Shots fired :-) Note that this person has two autographed Muse items for sale.
-
So does it really matter if you get in right at 10am, when there's this waiting room that's open 20 minutes before? Especially as there are often 2000+ people in front of you...
-
But it means less guitars and more knobs
-
Mailing list just sent this out:
-
Fucks sake. Now I'm starting to think like Bs.
-
I sold that one a couple months back, though it went to someone I know and he seems to like it a lot. Nothing was actually wrong with the FRX, but it did need a bit of time to be broken in and the knife edges sharpened. After that, it stayed in tune just as well as any other floyd. I thought I was doing you a favor. You wouldn't have to buy two separate guitars if you bought something like that!
-
Why not get something like this? Heh that would have been far more likely, but I think I noticed the MIDI screen before anything else... I hope nerd herd is proud of me.
-
I was expecting MOTP as soon as I heard that low C. Silly me.

Same here. Energy was great, especially earlier in the set. Yeah, it did seem like a good amount of GA died down after the previous act. I recall MB said something like "you know this one?" when he wanted us to sing part of one of the songs. Pretty sure that was the chorus for Uprising... luckily it seemed like most people knew it. True - it felt a bit longer than 12 songs somehow, but I wouldn't have been against another drop D riff... or several Yeah, I was wondering if that was new. It was sort of strange seeing him come out of nowhere all lit up like that, considering they didn't have the usual sort of entrance like at their own shows. -
I'm pretty sure that's the second one. Unless he had the pickup replaced in the original? It did look fairly beaten up like the first one though. Also, was surprised to see that he didn't use a single matt black (as in his usual tour spec guitars) last night

I would hope it's something like that. Trying not go in with any high expectations, which is a bit difficult... What time are you all getting there? I'm in the seats, but still considering going for the full event. Not familiar with all the artists, but might as well get the most out of the ticket.
