I'm going to sell my 10-string Bich, my Rist Soloist and a 7-string Ibanez... anyone interested?

[ElToro]

Coming soon to a bedroom rockstar near you...

I put my 10 string on eBay if anyone is interested.

The Rist is up for trade offers.

I'm also blowing out my SuperDistortion/FeedBacker for $80.

[ElToro]

Bich is gone...

No new toys for anyone?

Not I! Maybe in a couple months if my work still gives out bonuses this year (and I still HAVE a job in a couple months).

yea, scary times. My business is down of the retail side. It's up on "store closing" sales, but it doesn't feel good.

I recently bought an old Peavey Rockmaster preamp. Sounds killer. One of the coolest things Peavey ever made, IMO.

I always liked those. What amp are you pumping it into?

Right now I'm just plugging it into my Randall RM100S. My plan at some point is to pick up a Peavey Classic 50/50 power amp on the cheap.

i got a pretty decent priced Epiphone Acoustic-Electric. i really like it. it works for any situation and sounds real nice.

Question: Is there any difference between a EH Big Muff pedal and a Little Big-Muff pedal besides the casing? Website implies they're the same thing, but figured I'd ask.

Also, I'm staying just around the corner from the Kodak theater... What guitar stores (other than Sam Ash/GC/Carvin) are near me?

Head to the corner of Sierra Bonita and Sunset... you'll find a few. John Nelson's shop is amazing.

Tell us about Waterstone... looks fun!

[demolition23]

Anyone got an answer for my, ummm... Muff question?

[Mattfig]

I got lucky to get the endorsement...I was on a compilation CD that had some pretty famous musicians on it- Ritchie Sambora, guys from Journey, Steve Miller Band, Jeff Pilson, and more...It was called Labour of Love..Here's a link

http://cdbaby.com/cd/labouroflove

I think everyone got an endorsement deal...I am thankful as hell to have it!!!

As for the Waterstone guitars...They are incredibly nice...Often times I change the pickups and that's it...They come ready to rock...I am just fussy about which pickups I play...Everything stock on them is great...Plus, they are the prettiest damn guitars I've ever seen...The pics don't do them justice but the E-2 is a gold sparkle, and the WWAS and JMAS are blue sparkle...The Indra bass is cool as it is short scale- it still thunders like a standard scale with those humbuckers! I love all of the 8 Waterstones I have...My fave would have to be the JMAS (telecaster style with semi-hollowbody)...I put some hot rails into the bridge and it smokes while playing like a dream...These guitars turn a lot of heads and I think you'll be hearing alot more from them very soon...Places like Musician's Friend and Guitar Center have started stocking some WStone basses...Guitars won't be too far behind...

Anyone got an answer for my, ummm... Muff question?

I've heard they are very similar but do to the resizing, I'm not sure it'll be exact.

[ElToro]

What will Waterstone's sell for?

As far as the Muff question, I've always thought it was resized for savings and just a bit different, unintentionally.

[demolition23]

I ask cos I was planning to get one, and while the $10 price difference isn't an issue, the dramatic size reduction kind of is... You reckon the full-size version is the way to go though?

[ElToro]

Just try both and see what you think. I always hated those big boxes. When they put the Small Stone in a small box, it was awesome.

I'm a huuuuge vintage guy; I'd spring for the fullsize but I doubt the smaller one will be THAT different.

[demolition23]

Yeah, I'm going to go down that way on monday and try out all manner of pedals, but i figured it couldn't hurt to find out if there was some big black mark next to the smaller version or whatever.

Will SatansChicken buy a Max?
