As mentioned on Friday, with a bit of luck I'll have a Cutting Room Floor this week, but that wasn't enough so along with that I should be getting a Digitech Weapon too.

Got a new soldering Iron on the way to replace the slightly shit one I was using previously.

The reason for that is I've got this new pickguard coming from GFS as well for my strat. Prewired with a set of their 1962 style pickups. Cant wait to hear that mess with my marshall.

Yeah so I've had a WES51 for about 10 years.. and it just started shocking the shit out of me. I ordered a new pen/cord .. hoping that's it. It's kind if hard to test. It's been a good iron. Nearly daily use for 10 years..

My WES51 started randomly going off and I would jiggle the pencil cable and it would work intermittently. Thought I needed a new pencil but I opened it up just too look and there was a loose and very easily seen ground screw. Open ‘er up and check it!

Because you're an obsessive-compulsive gear whore, just like everyone else around here. :thumb:

Because it's objectively an amazing pedal?

I personally think the Ventris is better. Had both, a/b'd them, preferred the Ventris. Tonally it just sounded better with my bass. I dunno.


Also, that should read "subjectively". :) LOL

:love: indeed! I got this one in a couple of days ago, think you might dig it too ;)

Image

it's an ma hog but it sounds -great-! super juicy and warbly with the depth cranked and filter open. gets smooth and slightly shimmery with the filter up. swell knob is perfect, offsets the lfo so you're not stuck with boring ass triangle sweeps! echo doesn't oscillate but is basically voiced perfectly. very happy with :)
