    General Gear and Tab Season IV: Can it play barre chords?

    in Kit & Tab

    Posted

    I didn't think OLC was still around. Need to check...

     

    Did someone say riffs?

    I mean... not that it's a particularly meaningful contest anyway, but I don't really consider that a riff. Though it's probably closer than some of the others they had listed.

     

    Also, ended up taking that Peavey HP2 (that's what it is, isn't it?) apart as a few parts needed lubricating. There's not really any indication of it being made of leftover wolfgang parts (at least as far as markings go) but I figure these first ones are... seems to make sense, as they've been out of stock everywhere since that initial batch sold shortly after they were announced at summer NAMM last year.

     

    If that's true, these must be more MB :nerd:

     

    So it has proper EVH MB mojo? Yeah, I don't think I saw them in stock anywhere here so that must be the last of any parts they had left.

    Nice. Have you bought it?

     

    I wish! Imagine playing through that with a metal zone. Good that it sold for so much though.

    That makes sense. Can't risk missing out though...

    So it's a late 70s big muff paired with a big cheese clone? I actually got a late 70s big muff (not sure which one exactly) in a trade recently... but I don't know who's building clones of the big cheese.

     

    You should build me one. At least if I miss out on the next batch of infatuators.

     

    Edit:

    :facepalm:

     

    Those riffs :happy:

     

    Yeah it’s those two together. If I built one it’d probably work well as a kill switch and not much else, but I think OLC still makes big cheese clones.

     

     

    Also that J-45 is one for the bonfire.

    I think they’ll come with the super fancy version of the new Vennart album, so probably won’t be available to order for a couple of months-ish.

     

    Not proper #details, it was an IC big muff kit I painted yellow and put blue knobs on for the extra toan. I never got it working, probably put something in the wrong place :facepalm:. If I had any idea what I was doing I would’ve tried to make a big cheese clone for the other side of the infatuator as well though, since they sound utterly filthy together.

    Cort MBC-1 Signature Guitar

    Really considering getting another cort mbc-1 (sold one) putting gotoh 510 bridge and tuners, sustainer, black custom hardware and order a custom neck. Would that then be exact same as Bellamys? I just prefer the shape of the mbc1 over the Evos. Either that or get a dr-1 ans get it all matt black. Not sure what would be cheaper. Custom necks are £400.

     

    I've seen them refinish MBC-1 necks before, but they might not do that anymore.

     

     

    Or I could be hipster and learn to play opposite handed like nerd herd does.

     

    I haven't got a jazzmaster yet so I'm not full hipster :nerd:
