  1. What's the usual sweet spot for delays? I feel like all the default options are set to way too long, so the delay comes out like 15 seconds after or something. It's awful :facepalm:

     

     

    I have a V. The delay and amp will come from a multiFX though - only the Whammy is a real separate pedal

     

    Depends what kind of sound you want, does your pedal do tap tempo? Try some different types as well, for hysteria I usually use a tape echo model (but I use that for just about everything).

  2. Well it depends what order your pedals are in.

     

    If you want to double your original octave then add +1 octave to it, giving you a total of 3, put the delay before the whammy.

     

    But if you want to double your original octave as well as the +1 octave, then put the delay after the whammy. This gives you a total of 4!

     

    This is why not to use 2 delays and 2 whammies at the same time :confused::LOL:

     

    Ya'll know I'm way too gullible to tell if something's a joke or not :erm:

     

    So guitar -> whammy +1 octave harmony -> stereo delay -> amp. Right?:p

     

    I probably should play around with delays more. My multi FX unit has a bunch of them, but I never really know how to make them sound good >"<

     

    Yeah that order sounds right. It's really fun messing about with delays, especially using different types.

  3. :nerd: Don't forget the roland GK-2.

     

    Yeah, $400 difference between flame top and solid colour. I'm guessing the tune o matic version might be cheaper as well.

     

    I quite like this one at 1:40. White with black binding.

    Of course.

     

    Seems none of the usual places here stock peavey guitars. But yeah, it's probably a bit cheaper without the floyd rose, but also less fun.

  4. Nice. But you aren't allowed to have similar guitars for different tunings.

     

    And yes, of course. Also, interestingly they now have it listed with the lower price which I expected... hopefully I didn't actually get locked in for the original price :facepalm:

     

    They do sound nice. I can't say I've ever seen a second hand one either.

     

    :LOL:

     

    Make sure to stick some tape on it once it arrives :nerd:. Is there much of a difference in the prices?

     

    I haven't either, would probably cost a small fortune second hand though :facepalm:

  5. You bought a new one? :love: Which one? The radiohead signature?

     

    And that's just a rumor.... (yes I did)... like the rumor of them being made from old wolfgang parts... or this rumor

     

     

    What do you think?

     

     

    Nah not the Radiohead one, a friend sold me one similar to my red one really cheap.

     

    Did you get a black one with a floyd roe?

     

    Nice. Really hope green carrot make more of those, Mike's solo album has some incredible fuzz sounds on it from that :facemelt:

  6. It depends on the string gauge and tuning I guess. I haven't had any issues setting it up like that with 10-46 in standard with three springs. Just tighten the claw until the bridge is flat against the body.

     

    Keep in mind that if you have it setup to standard Fender spec now, it might throw off the action and intonation if you set it up flat against the body.

     

    It worked with 3 springs for 11-54 in drop C. Also have a second strat now... may need more of them :facepalm:

     

    Did you say you'd pre-ordered one of the new wolfgangs that aren't wolfgangs? Can't find the post now though.

  7. @nerd herd

    It doesn't look like there's much of a difference between that and the original wolfgang. Most obvious would be no D-tuna I guess, since that was EVH's design.

     

    Nice. Yeah it's pretty close, just a bit less EVH. Do you have a wolfgang?

     

     

    :LOL: I was thinking about this the other day after day after I noticed the input was on the side of his strat. Also had some of the best sounds I've ever heard a guitar make. All of the want :facemelt:

  8. I forgot about that one. I think there are two kinds of people on there... the ones from K&T, and the ones that are actually being serious.

     

    It's fine. MB himself would have (and has) done the same thing

     

     

    And then there was that time Bs shut the case lid on his MB-1....

     

    Sounds about right :LOL:

     

    The dent makes it more like the other MB's 007 though. Is the Manson matt black finish thinner than the cort one? Looks like that's gone through to the wood

  9. Yes, but that's not why it self destructed. After that guy told me off for playing a Tool song on it, I only play psycho and the reapers outro on this guitar.

     

    Your dr-1 seems to get all the amazing comments on Instagram, like the guy who told me the colour of it doesn't have any impact on the tone.

     

    That's reminded me that I dropped a patch cable on my cort and it left a mark :facepalm:

  10. There's a second hand one for sale on reverb right now. :ninja:

     

    Remember a few years back in Japan, they played the psycho verse before one of the 7 string songs?

     

    If you have a CE-7, you can only know how to play that.

     

    Want. I don't remember that really, was it before liquid state? I'd be fine with that if I had a CE-7 :chuckle:

     

    Also my jazzmaster gas has become worse today :(
