Last year I took a plunge and purchased my first two squiers due to the rave reviews they were getting and the weird config (I found the idea of a Tele that's a Jazzmaster and a Jazzmaster that's a Tele too funny). Have to say I'm blown away. There as good as any fender I own (granted I don't...

I wouldn't go that far I'd say it's better than that, but I would say it's poor form for them. Anytime I've listened to the new singles it has just made want to stick on from Mars to Sirius

Dude totally forgot to reply, not been active too much recently. Off the top of my head Edinburgh School of the Deaf, Dananananakroyd, arab strap, algernon doll, the nectarine no.9, the twilight sad, womps, man of moon, Idlewild, aereogramme and forest fires all come to mind. theres other bands...

No way haha, I was rinsing that EP the entirety of last year. Thought the first one was good but that was a massive step up like. Album on the horizon?

Love karnivool, got tickets for September which will most likely get pushed back. Quite like sylosis though not listened to them in a while might give them a spin again

Love that album. Don't know if I've got something that scratches that particular itch, always loved neatly in the middle of everything that album sits (a lil bit math, I lil bit indie, a lil bit punk, a lil bit emo etc.). Depending on what aspects of the record you enjoyed the most I'm sure I...

How do you power your board? When I've had a digital pedal that is quiet on it's own but making whines and noises when combined with analogue pedals it was usually down to bad power and when I got a supply with isolated outputs it fixed the issue

Nice, came across the Bontempo a few days ago but hadn't seen much talk of people who've used it. Gonna maybe get one ordered soon once I've finished the 20 other projects that are on my desk

Got an obsidius board kicking about that I've been meaning to get to (no time for builds, moving house sucks). My friends got a darkglass Alpha Omega and I fell in love with it when I recorded his band. Love to see a board for it and in general more bass stuff on the site.

Think I know what my next project is, just been going in blind charging my own magnets

Baseplates increase the inductance of the pickup and alters the frequency response a bit depending on what material the plate is made of. Tend to find traditionally that tele bridge pickups use baseplates where as strat pickups don't. Been wanting to build a strat set and put a baseplate just on...

Always down for a bit blues/classic rock I'll give them a listen. Americana I'm not so much into. there is stuff I do like but I'm a bit more picky with that kinda sound.

Killer album, got to see them in Glasgow in the before times

Just put on a couple of tunes and think I'll dig this. Gonna give the whole album a spin at work tomorrow

Nice, last thing I want to do as a beginner is spread misinformation 🙂

I get you my dude, I'll link a couple of the materials I started with. As far as videos These are some of the videos I watched where I was like 'oh shit this is is easier than I think it is'. They are pretty detailed on the process and from common sense and more reading you can...

I read some stuff but mostly just jumped into to it headfirst like I usually do. Could post some links of stuff I "kind of listened to" if you want?

To take advantage of the break room format thought I'd ask for some music recommendations. I'm always looking for music recommendations (guitar music or otherwise) and thought I'd try and coax some out of you lot especially as I'd imagine there's probably quite a variety. In general I'm a...

Feel like I started this thread I should be me more involved (first forum I've really been apart of so still find it weird to be involved). After the tele bridge pickup I made a pair of p90s for my modern player thinline tele I did a my first reverse wind reverse polarity pair (this means that...

Ahh ok, cool I'll add some in. I was wondering if it was one those things people added because it had a purpose or if they just did it out of "tradition". Out of curiosity have you got any opinions on wire insulation? Doing some research there seems to be people who say that it does which...
