Witz Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Hmm, guess sarcasm is hard to gauge on the internets. He has a deal with Fender. Just a bit literally had no clue that you were being sarcastic Probably should have realised as your pretty clued up but you get so many people on forums that seem to know nothing about anything that I'm never sure anymore. To save me here is the new song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSu5K9KC49w Just waiting for BBC to upload the full gig so we can get a proshot! Sounds pretty catchy though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 This is supposedly a pro shot of the full set, but it's missing the new song and come on over. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRhzD9qbPwQ new song should have been after little monster and before ten tonne skeleton Edit: weird fender amp on the left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouCantEditSam Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I can only speak from personal experiance, but why do acts attempt to try out brand new music at festivals? All it does is kill the vibe. Do a cover or something if you need to eat up time, otherwise the crowd just stand there like zombies not knowing the lyrics or the drops. One of my favourite bands Twin Atlantic were on the R&L mainstage 2 years ago, everyone in the crowd was hyped, they come and open with a brand new song that they have only played once before .... Killed the mood straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 This will probably only be of interest to rust_relic, but if anyone remembers that weird amp switcher Matt used during the showbiz tour... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5d6dq4Y7r-g I've found out it was made by these guys (you can see the logo about 35 seconds into the video) http://www.orchid-electronics.co.uk/index.htm Looks like it was either discontinued, or was a one off. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been to a few shows like that, but yeah, I assume it's easy to forget your audience doesn't know the new song you're really excited about if you've been playing it for months in private. I suppose they have to get out there and start playing them at some point, but any time pre-release and there is a point where it can get excessive if you're only playing new stuff. Some bands are particularly bad for it though, and it does get annoying after a while. Hi James. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planet.pgs Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Hey guys, I've been wondering about wireless guitar cables (I don't know what they're called, but like the transmitter packs Matt uses so he doesn't have a cable) and was wondering if you had any suggestions?

Jaicen Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Any opinions regarding warmoth necks? I want to build a guitar fast for a covers gig I have so I might get a neck made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Any opinions regarding warmoth necks? I want to build a guitar fast for a covers gig I have so I might get a neck made. I like them. The fretwork hasn't been perfect on the ones I've got, but otherwise, no problems really I've got one on order at the minute actually - should be about six weeks, but that's for a neck being built to order with a gloss finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaicen Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Fretwork not being perfect is a concern. No issues with the frets needing levelling or anything like that?? Will seriously look into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will seriously look into it. They warn when ordering from them that a fret levelling may be required. Mine maybe could have taken the slightest levelling, but it wasn't nearly enough of an issue that I pursued it. Mine played great with just the truss rod adjustment.

james90 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Fretwork not being perfect is a concern. No issues with the frets needing levelling or anything like that?? Will seriously look into it. The last three necks I got from them (no idea about the previous ones) were all very similar in the way of fretwork. Two of them were forwarded to someone else but the one I still have did need a slight fret leveling from what I remember. To give you an idea, I originally thought there was a noticeable dip in the middle of the neck with no strings on, but I guess it was just the frets giving that illusion? Not sure, but the fretboard itself didn't need any work and after a slight leveling, it looks normal. You should check out musikraft though. I've only got one neck from them so far, but everything was level right out of the box as far as I'm aware. Very impressive quality overall. Oh and also... I've got another collaboration happening with someone on here. Would there be any reason not to use roasted swamp ash for the body? Mainly concerned about the strength of the wood I guess They warn when ordering from them that a fret levelling may be required. Mine maybe could have taken the slightest levelling, but it wasn't nearly enough of an issue that I pursued it. Mine played great with just the truss rod adjustment. Not sure if yours was much different from mine, but considering how the frets were originally, I don't think I could've adjusted the neck properly. I do prefer them set with almost no relief though.

Jaicen Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Thanks, will change check them out. Might work out cheaper on shipping etc too. I wouldn't have a problem using roasted ash, provided the wood is stabilized before cutting etc. Ash is pretty fibrous and tough so it should be fine. Don't think it would get brittle.

BlackjackWQ Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Not really sure where to post this, hopefully here is the right place. I just bought a digitech whammy on impulse, it's great fun. http://imgur.com/a/3v5hT Anyone know how Matt plays the solo parts on reapers? Because at the beginning, he strikes above the nut at 1(or 2) octaves up, then does the whole solo part, then once it's at the 15th fret at the high e string he's switched to down one octave and then for the tremolo part he's going up one octave. Does he have a guitar tech to do this for him or am I missing a specific setting. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
