I like how yuor signature complements every sentence you end with "..." in your posts Julian :D!!

he he, another little question, what's a fair price for a dod 250 in your opinion? I'm checking some auctions and online stores, I hate the fact that in usd they cost a really reasonable price but I have to pay roughly the same amout to have them shipped over here, argh...

uHH, I think they're fairly cheap, list price is around 40 bucks. Its not that expensive. Just ask a store close to you (that sells pedals) if they have it, they might not have it in stock so they'd order it.

It's a killer overdrive though... Look who uses it:



 


That's Steve Turner's, if you wanna know. Thats an awesome board my itself, it like has all these plugs and stuf.

I'm sure the best offer will be way below the BIN. That's crazy.

damn!
Recently I haven't been using distortion becuz my amp is shitting the bed. Sounds quite distorted no matter what. Pretty good sound however.

CHOUT 08.25.2007 01:55 PM

That's a true gearhead.

That is redonkulous.

I traded my Turbo Rat (+ $20) for a Russian Small Stone and Bass Balls today, and the dude gave me a free vintage MXR Flanger! It's a little noisey but it sounds sweet! I can't believe he just gave it to me...

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 08.26.2007 01:25 AM

Sweet that is what WIRE used.

A rat and 20 bux...I'm psyched...it does sound really good.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 08.26.2007 01:59 AM

I wanna flanger sooo bad. I wonder when the BYOC is gonna come out.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 08.26.2007 02:05 AM

I butchered this 20 dollar guitar's headstock tonight. It had those cheap plastic tuners that I put on the Hari Kari Krishna. The new tuners didn't quite fit. So I made them fit.

This guitar actually stays in tune, is intonated well, and sounds good surprisingly.


 


I am gonna put some photocells hooked up to stereo jacks in the pickguard so that your hand movement over the strings while strumming can control an expression pedal. Notice where I had to put the 6th tuner.

CHOUT 08.26.2007 02:10 AM

That looks like the perfect guitar for butchering...where did you get that one?

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 08.26.2007 02:17 AM

My Dad found it somewhere.

CHOUT 08.26.2007 02:24 AM

you should put a hole in it so you can fuck it while you are playing a gig.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 08.26.2007 02:30 AM

That would be hilarious.
