ITT we can groan about the bad parts of being a musician.

I fucking hate how incestuous this city is with its shows. I also hate shows. I don't really have a lot of fun when I go to them, and it's such a fucking pain dealing with gear when we get booked. Did I mention how expensive shit is? Oh yeah let me bust out $10k of gear to play an opening slot on a Tuesday night at a shitty bar. Yeah right fuck off.

Nice, what's your favorite pedal?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

For drive or modulation?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

... yes?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Drives: a highly tweaked Dunwich Fuzzthrone or a Devi Ever Dark Drive clone

Modulation: Infinite Jets, or the Walrus Lore

hell yeah, i can't get enough fuzz. Current fave is a mossrite fuzzrite clone with a bass gain cut knob. Spaghetti Western for days

just ordered a walrus monument, I hear they make great stuff

just received a dark light from old blood noise endeavors. Absolutely bonkers dual reverb

Those all sound sick! Walrus is pretty quality, yeah. You'll love them.

Still on the search for a boost overdrive. I've got a silvertone preamp for always on dirt, but I'm still looking for something that doesn't go completely nuts when i engage it. I'm a subtle yet tasteful gain enjoyer

Waiting on the klon clone from jhs

All my stuff is high gain. Maybe a Rat on low?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

ok fine i just bought a joyo clone, I'll let you know how it goes

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Yeah, the rat is something I've had on my radar for a bit. Just waiting for room in the budget!
