  1. my idea is: just trow some random materials together and then check how it sounds, that makes things much more interesting than just take the stuff that is considered "good"
  2. if that is true, those wraparound gibson bridges where not that bad after all
  3. lol, he has sausages instead of fingers i quess looking at his head
  4. maybe, maybe not, wood is not the only thing that makes the sound anyway, its just a matter of taste, you may as well like it just as very expensive wood is not a quarantee it will sound great
  5. i dont think it will make a difference if you would play with a bass through it, after all i think there are many bass amps that use the 6l6 i think i just think its bad for the speakers

    Tubes

    my selfbuild guitar sounds so much better than my other, it can sound really warm but then again its does not dull too. On the other hand, i can give a really country like tone. Its just great, but its a damn ugly guitar and it doesent play well at all, o well, get used to it. i just want to say: its not allways the amp that makes you sound good, the amp is just a small part of many small parts that make the sound

    Tubes

    my next amp will probably be solid state too, i think the whole tube hype is just lots of edit, and solid states are easier to keep a clean tone opposed to vacuumtubes who start saturnating if you play loud. I think its a shame that amp builders seem to be ashamed of their ss amps, they allways claim to have ss amps that sound like tube amps. I just want a amp that is not ashamed for what he is, with a really fuzzy overdrive just like transistor produce, not some fake smoothness, if i want smooth overdrive i just as well buy an overdrive pedal(many owners of a tube amp buy "tubelike" overdrive pedals too, which seems kind of retarded to me).
  8. on 12-strings they use pickups for 6-strings right?
  9. i have kluson tuners on my guitar, the ones used on most fenders i think, i hate it that those things are open on the top, that makes it very hard to tie a string on it i hate those bloody and very evil things, i want tuners with a hole you stick the string trough
  10. looks cool, i probably would try to make a simpler vibrato system than a floyd rose as my first, i would probably make something bigsby or strat type
  11. i think its a kind of a placebo kind of thing, i bet the guitars that i think look the best sound the best too
  12. [quote name='wing' date='Sep 10 2004, 06:26 AM'] Brian Robertson from Thin Lizzy, hes definitely underated. You have got to listen to Thin Lizzy Live and dangerous! He influenced me to buy a crybaby pedal. Other favourites probably either [/quote] yeah man, the solo in "dont believe a word" sounds fantastic
