Yep, I know I sound like a broken record rabbiting about them but there's just something very, very special about them that I just don't feel on other instruments. I was interested to hear what you think about the pickups, I just love the sound of my ones, I rate their pickups as highly as the guitars.

Well I won't fall out with ya arguing, but I like yours a lot

Now about that new thread...

Hey Doc, have you heard about Deviser's new branch. Deviser Special Division (DSD). They're making some new hot guitars, top of the range stuff. They've got 4 new brand names under the DSD section. STR Guitars, Stun Rise, Seventy Seven Guitars and Ladelux. :cool:

Thankee

I can't say enough nice things about this bass. Gonna be playing on a blues album in a month or two and there is no question about what I'll be using

Dord · 17-02-2008 4:05pm

Awesome, post a link to one of the songs when you can. I'd love to hear what it sounds like.

I've got a new bass in the stable too but it's currently in parts in boxes.

It's a pretty uncommon colour, but very very nice. :cool: I just have to get up off me arse and do some work on it.

Doctor J · 17-02-2008 4:06pm

I know the feeling. I started building a J about two years ago. A couple of weeks ago I remembered it and started work on it again

Dord · 17-02-2008 4:45pm

Hahaha....that's not much encouragement

Parsley · 17-02-2008 8:39pm

That is one sexy looking guitar alright, i'd love to hear how it sounds. What's the neck like? Fat?

cheers mate
the neck is pretty strat like,flatter than my gibbo's and tele's anyway,plays very easily
it sounds like a tele mixed with a 335 with a bit of gretsch twang on the bridge pickup

Dord · 21-03-2008 4:00pm

That's a nice pink Eggle you got there!

feylya · 21-03-2008 4:02pm

I need another Eggle!

Welcome to the family

Patricide · 22-03-2008 5:29am

now thats one savage collection

BostonB · 22-03-2008 10:41am

boycey - sweet. What strat is that. Love that blue colour strat.

boycey · 22-03-2008 12:22pm

Boston B- thats a MIM 60's classic player. Blindingly good value as Fenders go. Theyre custom shop designed and mexican built.Probably as close to Fender custom shop as I'll ever get

The colour is listed by Fender as 'Daphne Blue'- very similar to their 'Sonic Blue'. Theres a 50's one and the 60's one, different neck profiles and pickups- check them out .

I was wondering. I'm not usually a strat guy but now I'm relearning the guitar I keep thinking of one. I checked one out in Goodwins and MusicMaker, (same as yours) and loved it but it was a bit too pricey for my budget. I always wanted a maple neck but that 60's one was much nicer to play. I ended up with a PRS SE in the sale instead.

punchdrunk · 23-03-2008 3:48pm

that LP with the P-90's is :pac:
HAWT!!

boycey · 24-03-2008 1:08am

Thank you Punchdrunk.
Have to say your Reverend is hella nice too, its a brand that keeps drawing me back to their website lately. Them and First Act guitars.

Quattroste · 24-03-2008 1:10pm

Boycey. Them there nice guitars! Tell me how different is the LP with the P90's compared to having humbuckers? Is it a completely different sound?

boycey · 24-03-2008 2:43pm

Thanks Quattroste, theyre not strictly P90's though. Theyre actually weird pickups only found on that one and, wait for it, the Billy Jo Armstrong Speers or whatever his name is dude from Greenday's LP Junior signature. Theyre H-90's!! Stacked P90's apparently, with push pulls on the tone knobs for coil splitting, so P90 tone in coil split mode or humbuckerish tone on normal setting. It does sound lovley, more cutting than a humbucker on either setting, the P90 sound is very good, the humbucker sound is good, little less balls than a full humbucker but nearly there, less muddy overall. Ive kind of slowly moved away from humbuckers over the last while, even the semi has SD Phat Cats- P90's in humbucker format. Ive kind of toyed with the idea of sticking Lollar P90s in the LP, only a completely non necessary notion though!

Dord · 26-03-2008 2:05pm

It may be awesome? but dammit, resize those pictures!!!! :eek:

happydayz182 · 26-03-2008 3:37pm

Stacked P90's. Thats interesting, didn't know that.

boycey · 02-04-2008 8:43pm

Nice Gear Last Angry Man. That strat and tele make a handsome pair. BTW I think thats the first pedal steel we've seen on here.

Thats probably not a good thing!!!

Royale with Cheese · 14-04-2008 4:29pm

I have ordered a new bass to go with my new amp. The new family shall be here shortly

Patricide · 20-04-2008 11:13pm

if i were you id take out the for sale bits, mods done me in for that before, not trying to be an ass just trying to stop you from getting a temp ban.

Hmm, it was very much an aside and a comment on the photo, didn't really come across as advertising or anything. It's up to fey and co of course, but I personally wouldn't read anything into that one.

Patricide · 21-04-2008 12:23am

Yea i know, didnt mean to overstep me boundrys hahaha, yea my ban was a fair bit more justified alright haha. My bad just one of those days.

Don1 · 21-04-2008 11:49am

I just meant that they are currently part of my collection, but won't be for much longer. That is all.

boycey · 21-04-2008 8:01pm

That is a sweet sweet tele Don1. It almost makes up for the Limp Bizkit sticker on the strat!! Almost..

Don1 · 21-04-2008 9:19pm

As I explained in another thread with that pic in it, I've had that since I was 17, now 25, and a lot of the stickers can be explained away by a teenagers tastes!

I asked forgiveness there too! You'll also notice that it says "f*ck" just in front of them!

Cheers for the Tele compliment though. Should here it going either straight into a Marshall (creamy) or through a (unfortunately only modelled) Mesa Dual Recto (loud as hell)
