Gear observations from Conan
Let's take a left-to-right approach... Mike: Is it just me, or was that Stone's old Savage amp? I think the other one was his Fender Bassman RI. Jeff: His Marshall head from the last tour, plus an Ashdown head and the other one looked like a newer Eden...? Same orange-tolex Ampeg cabs as last couple tours. Matt: A Yamaha…

Does the studio my wife recorded in claims producer rights?

RIP Lester Polfuss
If nobody had ever heard of Gibson Les Paul's, he would still be more important to us than any believe..... delay, flanging, overdubbing, multitrack recording...... Goodbye to the father of modern music.

Immortality help
I've been messing around with Immortality for awhile. The tabs on given to wail are kind of out of whack so I'm a bit lost. I can do the intro and the chords easily (since they're simple) but what single notes does Ed play before the chords in the verse?

TS-808 or Hardwire CM-2?
I was just given the TS-808 re-issue but I'm thinking about switching it for the hardwire CM-2 tube overdrive. My main reason is that the TubeScreamer doesn't have true bypass and I'm not willing to mod it. I haven't played the CM-2 but I have a Hardiwre DL-9 and I love it. I definatly notice the TS-808 affecting my clean…

Tube Screamer problem
The switch on my TS5 is shot. I have a show in a little over a week. I'm not wanting to spend too much money but I need the tube screamer. We tried to replace the switch with a push button (looks like a phase 90 switch) but it's still cutting in and out. It only turns on and off when it wants. Anyone got an idea on how to…

How do you get yourself to practice guitar?
piggybacking off my topic on All Encompassing, how do you get yourself to practice guitar everyday, for even half an hour? It seems like many people have excuses, as I do, as to why they didnt or couldnt practice last night or during the day or whatever. How do you get beyond the excuses and just do it?
