Good oder Bad?

The other guitarist bought a Gibson LP Classic (Honeyburst) for a grand including shipping, case and all that crap. Im curious how what you think? It sounds to me like a good deal

Karl Hungus

Yeah, that's a pretty good deal altogether.

sei046

thought as much, and what you think of the H&K Zenamp? mine should b here monday or so and wonderin if people use them? i fell in love with it and got it for 600. anyone?

Karl Hungus

No idea whatsoever there, never played a H&K.

feylya

What's all this about smells? I'm hungover and confused.

sei046

i was gigging in carrickmacross last nite.... im prob worse. You have any horror storys bout zenamp no?

feylya

I was at a birthday party. Jammed with a band

Na, heard they're decent amps. All tube aren't they?

What band are you in?

sei046

I was with No Quarter for a few years and just joined Below The Belt. fxcked tired, gigging friday, saturday, sunday and monday. They aint tube no, they are digital but imo wipe the floor with line 6 and Boss. i swear by H&K for build quality and being consistent but wondering if anyone knows different

feylya

Best bet is to read Harmony Central for reviews. But take them with a pinch of salt.

Below The Belt? Can't say I've heard of them.

sei046

its all covers, You know Cunning stunts no? well BTB and The Stunts are turnin out to be biggest real rock covers band in ireland

feylya

Nope, don't know them either. Not into cover bands unless they're tribute bands.

sei046

well i have the studio here at home and working on bout 6 different albums so the covers pay for gear. Well anyway i like the diverseness of the amp. Might bring out the JCM if i can work out an external effects rig for it. There is a lovely tokai on ebay at the mo from a british shop. Mite source that. Its http://cgi.ebay.ie/Tokai-Love-Rock-Guitar-Std_W0QQitemZ7343257796QQcategoryZ2384QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem.

feylya

Aye, covers definately pay.

Jesus, that is a nice Tokai. Lack of pics are annoying though.

Karl Hungus

Oooh! That's good! Go for it!

sei046

ye that drives my head in. the thing is i 17 and am gonna have nothing left to buy by the time im 20 so should prob hang on. and in fairness i am gettin the tone i want outta my guitars but i love them tokais, knew nothing about them until i came on here. Since i joined i have become very synical of gibson and very impressed by tokai

feylya

Yup, boards will do that to you.

Jesus, 17 and you're happy with your tone? Most people spend their lives looking for "their" tone. I know I'm still looking.

Karl Hungus

Man, there will ALWAYS be something else to buy. Got any 7 strings, or Piezo equipped guitars? What about guitars set up for different tunings?

sei046

well the thing is i find my tone changes from one original song to the next but when it comes to the covers i am happy with a pretty standard rock tone. Nice rich leads and chunky rhythm. I defo wouldnt say i am finished with my overall tone. Well i gonna get some PRS, MESA and maybe a TSL next. Started to opt for some more obscure choices gear wise though, such as tokai over Gibson or take the H&K digital route over the line6 digital route. and i also wanna pick up that microcube!!!!

feylya

Hiwatt is very impressive. Played through a valve/solid state combo a while back. Very nice sound.

sei046

i played a huge HIWATT head, 200 watt solidstate and it was brilian but 2 big for the road i think. I DESPISE the AVT marshall series, most lacking amps tonewise i ever heard, no offence to users and maybe i am wrong but i keep gettin them advised to me. Might pick up a pignose aswell, they are suppose 2 b different
