    Anyone use Ableton Live 12 here?

    I've been a Logic Pro guy for some years and ProTools before that. At the school we are doing a show that requires the students to program and play with backing tracks this semester and the music director for this show is having us use Ableton for everything since that apparently is how much of...

    I think the McFeely 454 is getting some new pickups this week...

    Whelp, After all of this and fixing the bottom strap button which had stripped out last week the top strap button fell out and I don't have time to mess with it so it stays home tonight.

    In your mind, is there such a thing as a default electric guitar sound?

    I kind of have default types of sounds in my head.

    How about those Chinese Marshalls?

    I love throwing my gear on stage, getting the hairy eyeball from some boomer and then two songs in having them tell me how good my sound is. At the end of the day, none of it matters if it doesn't sound any good. And most of that comes from the player knowing his gear and playing well.

    I know I can't afford $3500 for a 100 watt head (sans speaker cab) for one of the new Plexi or JCM 800 mod amps that I'd actually want.

    How about those Chinese Marshalls?

    To be honest, I don't think I'll ever buy another "real" amp. I get a much more manageable and consistent Marshall experience from my Fractal and owning good amps to record with is not really a need for me anymore.

    I forgot this was steal an avatar month and I was trying to remember when I posted such a perfect post.

    Too lazy to airdrop a pic to my computer: Since my "in house" tech Jacob did the soldering it worked flawlessly last night. It sounds so different from my other guitar I'm going to need a new preset for it. Much lower output and kind of scooped sounding. Still a little aggressive in the...
