    New raffle ideas?

    I certainly wouldn't mind doing a nice guitar (an RG7CT anyone? :metal: ) but the thing is, $1400 doesn't even cover cost on a 7V. That's one thing I'm worried about is making sure cost is covered. But I have been thinking about it a little... Maybe if there was a stipulation added to the...

    New dad! ... holy shit...

    Well, we were about to leave to go pick up the baby to bring her home for good and got a call saying the birthparents changed their minds and decided to parent. This was quite a shock considering all that has gone on for the past few days and we are devastated. This is just a heads up so I...

    New raffle ideas?

    I may have a new raffle coming up but we're supposed to be bringing our new bundle of joy home today so maybe a Feb. one. Any ideas? Under $200 is a good price point, what's too much for "tickets", etc... It should be something everone can use like 30 sets of strings, a nice pedal (Radial)...

    Man, I fucking love Days of the New

    Did you guys see the singer guy on that show Intervention? Damn he was tweaked. Didn't look like he took to rehab too well either.

    Your fav 7 string body wood?

    Mahogany body with a maple top with direct mount pups. It has been the best balance of tone, point of attack and dynamic range I have found. Maple or mahogany necks will work equally as well with that combo. Good luck!

    Korn - See You on the Other Side

    I guess I should differentiate between distorted bass and ODd bass. A little goes a long way and when I speak of distorted bass I mean like Cliff had and some nasty nu-metal stuff. Tool falls in the tastefully done category and I wouldn't call that bad. I KNEW I crossed a line with that...

    Korn - See You on the Other Side

    Ok, this is all pretty strong on opinion but I intend no insult and make no apologies... There is not one instance that I can think of where I said to myself, "Hey, that's some nice distorted bass!" or, " You know what this song needs is some distorted bass!". The only exception is 70s...

    Korn - See You on the Other Side

    Just got it today... damn, I REALLY like it. I like the NIN underpinnings, I think it really adds a dimension to an already good band. The production is finally there, too. In general, whoever thought it was a good idea in the first place to distort bass guitars should be forced to give...

    Dimarzio has 2 new 7 pups for '06!

    No idea how they sound yet. I just got an email 10 minutes ago from them saying that they are introducing them at NAMM. I'll order a pair ASAP but I won't get them in for a few weeks I imagine. In the meantime keep up with their site for more details.

    Eric's Guitars polish kit

    Mostly bore oil with some secret sauce that helps it to last a bit longer between treatments. 3 ingredients total but 97%ish bore oil, yep.

    So, in my wife's never-ending quest...

    Alder is killer, I have to agree.. Tate and crew always struck me as the corporate radio version of FW, not a fan at all. I like Arch, too but good christ that guy has an attitude. How old do you have to be to stop singing about your last D&D campaign? My wife's taste in music is all over...

    Eric's Guitars polish kit

    Naw, once it's oiled you wait a few minutes to let it penetrate the wood then you wipe it off with a dry piece. Clean as a whistle. If you ant the wood to shine a bit when you're done you can use a polish cloth to give it a nice, hot, sexy rubdown.

    Eric's Guitars polish kit

    Yeah, sorry if that was badly worded. Do NOT use paper towels on the finish, just to oil the board.
