never bothered using ebay.. few peeps i know been done over on it so i avoid it.. does it usually take long for items to come once ordered?
-
its depends where they come from.. that thing i just bought is coming frmo a company.. and they'll ship today so i'll have tomorrow.. sometimes it can be ages.. every seller is unique.. thats why theres a feedback system.. ebay = addictive :)
-
ebay = addictive :)
yeah damn that bitch that invented it, thats why it's worth millions !
what will you be recording ? that thing looks from the 60's...
-
just my feable attempts at playing... its easier to hear where your timing is out when you hear things back :)
its got a cool retro look huh? its a brand new thing.. its just a little practice amp.. i looked around and this got the best reviews out of all the ones i could find out about.. its only about the size of a CD in height! :)
-
yeah, it looks pretty cool..
-
snuck out of work anc picked up a little multi voltage adapter since i dont wanna pump it full of 9V batteries all the time..
and got some new batteries for my mic
you're really supposed to use a mic pointed at an amp (or acoustic guitar soundhole) to record.. but this thing also has a headphone out for silent-ish playing with the overdrive (and any other in future) effect on.. which apparently this lil thing does real well..
* excited *
-
I'll get stuff off ebay within cali and the person takes there sweet time. I get stuff faster from the east coast.
-
lol.. yeah pays to watch that feedback for real...
forget sometimes when excited about stuff tho.. :-[
-

uh oh
-
A budding Jimi Hendrix now, eh?
What can you play?
-
not much :P lol.. just starting out
it'll be here tomorrow i'm sure..
-
Okay, what do you try playing?
-
clapton.. sunshine of your love
simpsons.. theme song :D
metallica - nothing else matters
jimi - dolly dagger
i wouldnt call it playing.. but enough to recognise the songs..
-
Not too shabby a song list that. Sunshine of Your Love = guitar classic.
How's things with you anyway?
-
yeah will be nice to play it when that lil amp (its only 12cm high!) is here so have some distortion.. my electro-acoustic sounds way too clean!
me same ole same ole..
-
You trying to fuck your next doors neighbours off or something?
Any reason why your starting with the guitar playing? I was considering it a few years back but figured it's something you really need to pick up as kid so I never bothered with it. Interesting hobby though I bet.
-
naww i want to record.. as its easier to tell when my timing is out hearing things back (and see how shit i sound to everyeone else) .. the amp has a headphone out so i can listen with phones on and not piss people off or pipe the output to the PC and record/run through my stereo..
main reason i started was that new bob dylan documentary called "no direction home" that was on bbc2 about 3 months ago. amazing docu.. and inspired me a lot.. i've always liked the idea of playing something... my mates got a what you'd called 'normal' electric guitar (fender copy) and its been useful to get tips off of him too.. the guitars are strung the same so i can play on his when go round.. just that i dont need an amp if i dont really want to. had a go on his with an effects box he's borrowed from someone on sunday and it made whole load of difference.. since notes would hold longer once you'd moved onto the next one etc.. all these pedals give you more time over playing raw acoustic.
-
So I'm guessing your broadening your music taste to coincide with all this shindiggery as well eh? I know you've never been just a rap man, but you must be listening to some more rockier stuff like. Two words mate - Arctic Monkeys.
Was gonna watch that Bob Dylan documentary but I think I probably just got drunk instead. Like the music, but the man himself has always got on my tits a bit. Got into a really good Bob Dylan biography awhile back mind, can't remember the name of the author but it was quite the read.
-
yeah i;ve always listened to other stuff.. but i've got into dylan a lot, a bit of clapton.. i've always been into hendrix (dude had 6 fingers i swear! ;)..
i'm just doin it to have fun and try play songs i can pick up
-
Yeah, I've got a mate who is obsessed with Hendrix. Just playing Hendrix covers is boring though.
Stevie Ray Vaughan - Pride & Joy
Check that beast out.
-
yeah not sticking to one artist or style.. i'll just play anything fun.. :)
*queued song*
-
definetly feelin the design of it man, i have ordered shit loads off ebay and everything came thru.
when i hear bout claims like my item didnt come i think its the people jus tryin to get money!
-
well i have been messed around on ebay before.. but this i'm sure is good. the seller is a record store with over 8000 feedback.. part of ebay is learning to use feedback etc..
-
my mate just come on n said..
[20:07] lee: get me song?
[20:08] lee: arctic monkeys - when the sun goes down
[20:08] lee: its good
[20:08] Overseer: ok queueing...
[20:08] lee: sweet
;)

Should have took my advice earlier, been going on about them for god knows how long. And the song is more then good, it's fantastic. Best intro to a song I've heard in fuckin ages. It's going to get some serious airplay in coming weeks, depending on what else gets released on Jan 5th then it will probably get Number One too. I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor was Top 10 for 6 weeks!!! For a first release from an indie band that's fucking crazy.
Album will get to number one without a shadow of doubt.

Shit, best guitar player ever in my opinion! That guy is way to good, he's all solos.

He's no Jimi but yeah, one of the best. Pride and Joy is one of my favourite songs.
