  1. QUOTE (TullSkull @ Nov 20 2011, 03:37 PM) Is it a '58 Allard GT ? Yes! That's it!
  2. Sorry for the confusion. The red car above is up for the guessing. It's been so long I'm not sure I remember what it is.
  3. QUOTE (apetersvt @ Nov 18 2011, 08:12 AM) I need more guitars as well. I only have 5 (plus a bass). Top of my wish list would be a 335, 345, or 355. Next would be a nice acoustic 12 string. Me too. Except I'm thinking my next one will be the Epiphone 339.
  4. Very nice. Really enjoyed that. Looks great in 1080 too. Like the 355 and the rick.
  5. Got a wife?
  6. So good to see the Barchetta finished. Congrats! What software do you prefer to paint in?
  7. Somebody's gonna have to go back and get a shit load of dimes! Oh and I like the song just fine. They can't all be the masterpiece that is Rivendell.
  8. 24-bit 48Khz in the Advanced user manual. Or is resolution as you're using it something different?
  9. QUOTE (Per2112 @ Oct 17 2011, 07:40 AM) Probably won't understand anything if you don't speak danish. But here is my first full lenght animated film. Drawings made by a local artist and coworker. I did the animation and editing. Music made by one of Denmark best guitar player and musician. http://youtu.be/sWPhepu2e5w You're right, I don't get what's going on but someone free that turtle from the rock! No small task animating 5+ minutes of footage. Congratulations. Nice work too. What software did you use to animate?
  10. Like you I've played with it. But I do own the Line 6 UX2 for recording and playing. It sounds great. The modulation effects are the weakest part but the easily programmable Pod farm for tones is fantastic. Thinking about a Line 6 amp with the compatible pedal board.
  11. QUOTE (SignatureAurora75 @ Oct 4 2011, 06:49 PM)Agreed. Thanks for everyones comments. And, the feedback. Much appreciated. Sheppy likes it too. I heard the same thing from one of my friends, saying pretty much the same thing! I think I may be losing that emotion somewhere while practicing this song for the 1000th time in the last year. I just recently got to where I felt somewhat comfortable in my "technical" abilities. Which, however leaves me leaving wondering something... To you proficient or professional musicians: Is it possible to play with true emotion and feeling to the same old song, even after you've played it so many times? I've always wondered this about Rush. Alex really shows his feeling show after show after show... I've often wondered: Is he really that into the song? To me, it would seem so boring playing the same old songs all the time. I've always thought his feeling seemed genuine, but I've wondered if any of it was just for show. Thoughts? I have a feeling that playing to a huge crowd might make it a bit easier to get into it. But for me practice leads to a muscle memory of the song so eventually, not always but hopefully, I can play without thinking about it so much and just enjoy it and get into it. It is certainly easier to do with my own songs than doing a cover though. There's also a thread on here somewhere about how the pressure is instantly on when you see that record light flashing at you. That may be doubly so when it's on a video camera. Any way that's my 2 cents. And liddybuck01, I totally understand that. I had that same problem with my Epiphone Les Paul pro f/x. Hurt may hand for a few weeks in fact because the neck is so much fatter. Almost sent it back but I have come to enjoy playing it. Not as much as my Carvin or Strat though.
  12. Finally some one with the correct chord voicings. Great job! Nice tone too. I was thinking about doing a SOR cover, guess I'll have to find another one now.
  13. You should put on a clear cover over your plate and stick the ? to that. Or maybe some little springy piece that is attached to the license plate frame. You haven't actually altered the plate now have you?
  14. Closer to the Heart.
  15. For me it's all about melody. He doesn't seem to write just to hit the root of the chord. I think it has to do with the interplay between him being the bass player and the vocalist. He writes very complimentary parts for each role. 2 cents.
  16. I can play solos on my Squier.
  17. All this talk and I almost missed the fact there's also going to be a 339 Epi. Not Alex like but I think I like that idea more.
  18. It's the ambassador but possibly they are one in the same? Regardless I say close enough. You're up.
  19. I can't believe we're still finding cars that haven't been posted yet. This one may have. I'm not sure. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3467/3915185212_d37e0f49c9.jpg
  20. QUOTE (TullSkull @ Aug 14 2011, 03:24 PM)It is very hard for me to find really hard ones for you and Hunter and Snowdog. You all are good. Mine are just a lucky shot in the dark. http://oi56.tinypic.com/2rf99ad.jpg Not so much good as just too much time on my hands. It's this right? http://www.sporting-reliants.com/images/Museum/SabraMuseum.jpg
  21. If your tremolo is set up to float it can be tough if you do it wrong because you're balancing the springs against the tension of the strings. It's easy if you just change out and tune up one string at a time. Then it stays in balance for the most part. I can't tell how many people tell me it's hard to change strings on a tremolo after they've removed all the old strings at once.
  22. QUOTE (FountainOfSyrinx @ Aug 11 2011, 06:12 PM) QUOTE (hunter @ Aug 11 2011, 08:45 PM) What ancient ways said. It's normally 700 bucks. I bought one not long ago. It's fine after a set-up. But it's no Gibson Les Paul. It also lacks the sculpted heel that the axcess has. But it's split coil humbuckers and plays nicely. The tremolo is a Floyd Rose "Special" so not quite a real Floyd, but it stays in tune nicely. The neck is a little fatter than I care for though. Pick one up for 400 while you can. I got the vintage and the finish looks fantastic. If you're not into tremolos just get a regular Paul. It sounds decent enough The trees played on it. But you could always swap out the pups for something better. It's the only compromise if you don't want to pay 4 grand. Thanks alot for the info. I'm not a great guitar player, but i'm pretty good for a year and a half experience and self taught the entire way. My uncle mentioned something about the way the neck was made or something? Something about it being bolted on vs made in one piece all the way.. i'm not totally sure, i've never heard anything like that so sorry if i sound like a noob.. but he also mentioned that if it's made in the US, it's a "slam dunk" especially for my first electric purchase. (i've played electric many times though.. i go to Guitar Center a few times a week to scope out guitars, and i'm going tomorrow evening to play this one to see how i like the feel). So do you know how i go about finding where it was made? It's made in China. Big old sticker right on it. You're way better off buying it from Musician's friend. Every time time I go to GC they try to hand me some tremolo arm they dug out of box under the counter and try to tell me it's the right one when it's not even the right color. The neck is set in not bolted. it's not that cheap of an Epiphone. As Epiphones go, it's really nice for 400 bucks. especially if you're a noob.
