james90 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Got a whammy last saturday, and I have fallen in love with the harmony setting when you put it -1 octave, makes everything sound so much beefier... This. Just my opinion, but I don't think a guitar sound should have too much low end. That's what the bass is for. Go ahead and take away my whammy, Tom. Having said that...this was pretty amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haze015 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 This. Just my opinion, but I don't think a guitar sound should have too much low end. That's what the bass is for. If you run from the dry output to a guitar amp and the wet to a bass amp, it would be pretty much the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Guitar with octave down is great. I'm pretty sure this is a great example, but I don't have speakers at work so can't check it's the right song. Anyway, this is using an OC-2, which as i've said has a much tighter low end than the whammy on -1 octave IMO. B5MH4D_42hA There's plenty of room for low end in guitar, but it all depends on how you want the band to sound as a whole. My guitarist has a rediculous amount of low end at the moment, but I do roll it off when mixing if i'm playing the bass. When i'm on drums we have a bass player who takes up much less "room" in the mix, so there's space to put some low end guitar back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo57 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Callaham beotches Should arrive very soon. Extremely excited, no more crappy pot metal blocks... very tired indeed of arm wobble. That's really the main reason I ordered one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's really the main reason I ordered one. Nice, got one of those on my strat. It was more for tone/sustain though, and it did make a slight difference over the stock one...I think Also, I just ordered a new neck for that guitar. Couldn't really get along with the other one...got something fairly standard this time. CBS Stratocaster®, Warmoth Pro , Right Handed, Maple, Indian Rosewood Fretboard, 1 11/16" Nut Width, Standard thin, 6130, Gotoh/Grover (13/32", 11/32") Tuner Ream, 22 frets, Straight 9.5" Radius, Cream Face Dots Inlay, GraphTech Black TUSQ XL, Clear Satin Nitro, 25-1/2 in. Scale fretboard doesn't look as nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zooropa1310 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 What are you doing with the old neck james? It was quite lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 not sure yet, might put it on ebay or something. or maybe it might find a use in the future as i'm planning to build something else. edit: on the subject of that strat It's in pieces right now while I'm waiting for the new neck (and because I spilled glue on it last night). Trying to decide whether to stay with the vintage theme, or to go EVH on it I've had an EVH frankenstein pickup lying around as well as a strat sized P90 neck pickup. Thinking of redoing it with those and taking the BKPs, bridge block, etc and using them on a new project... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheddatom Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 they're better than a shitty set of "PC speakers" or worse one of those "gamer speakers with subwoofer", or headphones. I used to mix on hi-fi speakers, it's a good cheap option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
