  1. Les Paul's recordings had notes played in the dogs and dolphins range. He got that effect by recording at half speed and then getting the effect of the notes sounding an octave higher when played back at normal speed. That sounded unique, but when I heard some Homer and Jethro recordings that were basically jazz mandolin Les Paul's recordings sounded very contemporary for their time. The Virtuoso ought to put guitar players in that same tonal range.
  2. That is cool at the beginning. Ted Nugent's bass player, Greg Brown, was the first person I can recall to use a Go-Pro onstage. Your band looks like everyone is having a good time playing. The audience sure did. Wyldbil rocks on!
  3. Alex got his own signature amp from Hughes & Kettner. If he goes with the Axe FX what is point of the amps? Just sample all the amps you want and you have them in one unit. Why buy a Slash or Kerry King model Marshall? This whole modeling thing could kill of some royalties from the sale of signature model amps. They NEED those amps on stage. FWIW murkat let me play through his Axe FX. My playing level is not so great, but my hearing is OK. The Axe FX really is amazing at how real it sounds. If I were able to play loud, I would want to have a real amp just for smell of hot tubes and all the quirks. That is my preference. If I was in a touring band and responsible for my own gear, an Axe FX would be a good option. If there is a crew to load in a ton of gear and keep it all running, there would be no need to care what is there as long as it works.
  4. ehx sent out an e-mail with a link to a video showing how tubes were made in a Russian factory.
  5. There are no plans to buy a guitar right now, but there will probably be a nice pedal or two.
  6. Somehow if we had to take turns with that tool to see who could master it, the majority of us would ruin the wood. It ain't the tool that makes the guitars.
  7. This kind of precision hand work never gets shown in guitar magazines. One of them needs to do a review and include shots like the shaping of that neck heel. Seeing the grinder used to carve a top at the Hamer factory tours was amazing, too.
  8. Well, Bil was not a subtle kind of guy.
  9. Here you go. You are on your own trying to borrow Ace's gear.
  10. Has anyone made a V shaped guitar with a pizza graphic?
  11. They are heavy. RoyB got to play with "Clarence," Marty Stuart's guitar with the original B-Bender designed by Clarence White and Gene Parsons.
  12. I signed up, posting right now. Looks like Google hasn't found the site yet but typing heritageexiles.com directly into the browser bar brings up the site The name Heritage Exiles might make someone suspicious like you were kicked out of a forum instead of having a forum totally shut down. Your forum is so new you guys can decide on a more newbie friendly name. Here are some suggestions. Heritage Owners Group (HOG) - The Harley owners might smash your guitars for infringing on their acronym. The Worldwide Heritage Owners (The WHO) - T-shirts are available now. Guys Rocking Out Heritage Licks (GROHL) - Share the limelight. Brent Uses Guitars Only For Fun! (BUGOFF!) - It's true! Fender Used to Care, Kids. They Are Recycling Designs. (FUCKTARD) - If Thorn owns the forum he can pick whatever name he wants.
  13. That one could remain a beater and be the guitar you play wide open, reckless, and unhindered. Dowel the holes to replace the strap buttons. Fix the electronics. Just play it. Be careful investing too much in it with ideas of having it refurbished and refinished. I did ask the seller if a case is included.
  14. Why are we assuming that several fans of Heritage Guitars will be joining a forum dedicated to Hamer Guitars? The crossover people are already here.
  15. This could be the opportunity to start something new for Heritage fans. Purchasing good message board software and finding a good set of moderators is the hardest part.
  16. I need a zip up hoodie to replace the one I have. Either I get one with a band name or Shishkov. Tell me it is possible to get a hoodie.
  17. Play the heck out of it!
  18. I thought about the lightning bolt in the AC/DC logo. Angus' guitar looks cool, too.
  19. First impression: Ace Frehley.
  20. Aw, but Bubs, if you have a $4000 guitar and amp, a $4 pick is nothing.
  21. I've shared what I'm using with a couple of members here and I can get a 150 of them for 9.99. Are you sure they are not Chinese knock offs?
