^ The PAF-7 is an amazing pick-up. I love the sound. Matches everything I need. Has that jazzy-smooth clean if you want it, and a killer-clear-defined distortion with a good amp. Unfortunately, that's in mohogany. I haven't dealt with it personally, but on all accounts I've heard, the PAF-7...
Just have to throw my input in here... Foremost... I've played both a UV777BK and a K-7. I own a K-7 (a neighbor had the UV, wish he hadn't moved :( lol). They're both nice; but hands down, I enjoy the K-7 more. I still want a UV, but that's only to have a 7 with a single coil (and to have...
In the pics folder I linked to, there is a pic showing the side of the dots. You ever had a watch that has the hands where they glow in the dark? Well, it seems to me its the same material (looks the same, and its the same greenish-color). Anyway, if you keep the guitar in a case or in a room...
Seems I can finally post pics & links now. :) Here's a bunch of pics I took of my K7 some time ago. Tried taking a pic of all its "features"... filename should explain what it is: http://www.planetubh.com/core/permtemp/k7pics/ Aside from, my friend sent me these pics today, they're pretty...
Also I just saw a pic of the THD Hot Plate and I'm not sure it will work out for my situation... The power amp and preamp both run in stereo (two channels), so I need an attenuator that is 2 channels (and preferably rack). I'm looking myself and I'm not finding anything relevant through...
I have an Alesis 3630 right now. Pretty basic compressor. Functions like it's supposed to... compresses clean signal for recording nicely, noise gate works (it's not a "noise suppressor", and I'm pretty sure there's a difference between gating & supressing), etc. All in all I'm satisfied with...
I just purchased the Mesa Recto 2:100 power amp and it'll be arriving by the end of the week. Obviously, it's going to be TOO loud when I'll be using it for bedroom practicing. So I'm looking to get an attenuator. I'm looking for nice quality (yet not a few thousand $$$ lol). Most of...
Right now it retails around $1,500. I bought mine right around $1,400 new, and that was only about a year ago. Seems the price went up, not down, lol...
I love my K7! I put some pics up of mine awhile ago, check them out if you want: Edit---the site just told me I can't post URLs to another site until after I have 15 posts :rolleyes:, lol... so I guess you'll have to wait awhile to see the pics. And the inlay won't affect your playing...
Great thread... I'm in the process of designing my custom pick now. :) Sadly, the only justifiable reason I'm doing it is because friends keep stealing my picks everytime they're over (not a big deal; but over months of doing it, we're talking like $50-$100 worth of picks from me lol)...
All in all.... I like the album. It's definately different. At first it was a bit of a shock and I wasn't really liking too many of the tracks, but after a couple of listens it definately grew on me. I enjoy listening to all the songs on the album, except for the very last one...
I love my K-7. :D Great pickups, great neck, great mahogany, great trem, etc etc etc etc. And the inlay doesn't bother me, I kinda even like it due to its unique-ness lol; don't really understand why anyone would hate it just for the inlay, but then again, I don't really like guitars...
^ Wow... thanks for all the advice; kinda what I was looking for. I wasn't talking about "guitar cable" as you sort of caught on, but instead cables for recording equipment and the such (why I posted it in the recording studio section ;)). Will look into Mogami when I can. Good advice on...
This seems like a simple question, but... What are some good brands (and specific "models") to look into when it comes to getting high quality cables for recording equipment? In the pursuit of 'perfect' recordings, it's important to have quality cables to eliminate any fuzz/buzz/noise/etc...
What exactly are the differences between the BBE and Behringer EX3200? Or which would any of you recommend getting? I've looked at both of them and it seems people rate both of them highly.... yet they do about the same thing (?) and the EX3200 (~$100) is cheaper than the BBE (~$200). I'm...
I have the Mesa Recto Pre. Love it! :) But I've only been using it in the area of recording, and I suppose practice as well (through my monitors basically). It's the exact same circuitry as the 2-ch Dual Rectifier's preamp. And it sounds like a Rectifier for recordings as well (direct...
Sounds like your Sam Ash is different :(. The one I go to is here in Phoenix, Arizona. Actually it just opened up maybe 6 months ago. And I do believe them they don't plan on carrying any in stock there, or at least not any time soon. I've been in there about every 2 weeks for something or...
Well, I've been to the SamAsh here several times. They actually didn't have any 7-string sets. I even got to look. :( I've also talked to the people there, and they say they have no plans to carry any 7-string guitars either, though they'll be able to order anything if someone wants it...
Well... been searching the web for about 4 hours now looking for these damned strings. And wam! I find them. On all places... Amazon? I didn't know Amazon carried such items...
Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but I'm fairly new here. I was playing Bad Horsie, and you know that whammy part where it sounds like a horse? Well, I broke my big string (060) doing that :(. So I've re-tuned my guitar since the tension changed and I'm now rocking on a 6-string, lol...
