The chorus/flanger sounds aren't as good as dedicated pedals and the pattern tremolo sounds aren't as easy to dial in as on the M5 so I couldn't recommend it for guitar if I was being honest.

Shame, I saw that Some Neck Guitars had one in stock so was considering a purchase while in Dublin for SP. Took a wander up to the shop but nothing caught my eye...other than this...

Looks like I'm getting a new guitar....

Link in above post no longer working  - largely because that's the guitar I bought so it's no longer available  :D

Anyone know if there's any guitar shops around Dublin that sell ESP/LTD guitars?

Have me eye on getting an LTD EC1000 later in the year and would like to play one before I buy. Definitely a dream guitar right now, comes loaded with Seymour Duncan's too.




Ive been playing one of these for a few years (it came with EMGs, not SD's though).  Its absolutely gorgeous. Would never part with it. I bought it from Thomann without trying a few years back and have gigged it lots and recorded a load with it. Fully recommended.

New baby arrived this morning. Can't wait to get home and give her a whirl later

And so 2019 begins at last....

I did make it a month....

I am tempted by the Mooer Preamp Live and Radar as well despite swearing I'd never throw them any money again. Having a choice of 50 micro-preamps is very tempting.

I'm actually really liking the Amplifi TT. I've my 4 presets saved to the gizmo itself and a couple of others saved to My Tones  saved on the app. I've only really scratched the surface but should be able to get 90% there towards my actual pedalboard. It has all the important effects that are on the M5 with the bonus of being able to use more than 1 effect at a time.

Second this. Was a dream guitar of mine for years so once I had the funds, bit the bullet and bought it online blind effectively. It's simply perfect, extremely comfortable and looks outstanding. Go for it  :)

Just flickin around and  came across this https://www.thomann.de/ie/harley_benton_r_458_wh_fanfret.htm
159 for an 8 string.. even if you can't play the fucking thing.. for 159 it'd be great to have to pull out at parties for an ould blast of wonderwall  :laugh:

Did have my eye on the seven string tele style fan fret, but went with this instead.

That Tele just looks wrong for some reason

Did a board re-arrange last night and have managed to make room for something kinda Meris Enzo shaped  :)

What are the pickup options for fanned-fret guitars? The pickups on those HBs look like they're slanted too, so you probably wouldn't be able to put a standard pickup in there if the stock ones were crap.
