NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

Hey guys, here's another Christmas freebie from Native Instruments - Replika Delay Effect REPLIKA packs two professional quality delays and a powerful diffusion algorithm into a sleek, streamlined interface. Simple to use with a resonant filter and classic phaser built in, REPLIKA is a versatile del...

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfGggAGITwg#t=157[/youtube] WOW! :thumbup: Those 2CELLOS guys are incredible - I mean - Smells Like Teen Spirit, just wow, so much power. And all the other covers too with everything from NIN/Johnny Cash to Michael Jackson and a good dose of AC/DC, even The P...

Sounds like we need to catch up via email...I hear your back is still not good. I'll be in touch. Should get the family on Skype again - you around over Easter? Last time I tried to organise Skype was just a couple of days before my back went ping. Since then my life has been a bit of a write off s...

I cannot stand inlays, gloss finishes, fancy rosettes on any other non-tone related bullshit on an acoustic guitar are a waste of money. Absolutely agree they're dead money. So why do I like the look of the Millenium 25 model so much? :think: I know what you mean. Hmmmm Millenium 25 model..... thin...

Ben, a Cedar topped Jumbo sounds like an amazing contradiction to me; not saying it's wrong or anything. Cedar: compresses easily, responds well to a delicate touch. Jumbo body: ideal for loud strumming and heavy hitters. And every Lowden I have ever played has been a little piece of Gaelic fairydu...

A non-apple mac aka hackintosh is never going to be as stable as a proper mac. The stability is partly to do with the fact that there are a very limited number of hardware variations (as opposed to the almost infinite windowz variations). That being said, I'm seriously considering a hackintosh as m...

Bootsie from Variety of Sound offers some superb freebies - easily the equal of many paid for plugins IMO. The only drawback is that they are currently only 32 bit (actually I have a feeling they are Windows only too - dunno really as I've moved away from Mac) but I run them fine in 64 bit Reaper on...

I cannot stand inlays, gloss finishes, fancy rosettes on any other non-tone related bullshit on an acoustic guitar are a waste of money. An acoustic guitar has one purpose to me and that is to sound good. Therefore features that don’t add tonal goodness are a waste. I’m all about thin, thin finishe...

Yep, what Ben said. My Guild CO-2 (which you've played, I think?) is in that range...superb for recording and still loud enough to jam with. http://static.music123.com/derivates/18/001/286/771/DV016_Jpg_Large_514852.008_ice_tea_burst_R.jpg Its solid mahogany sides and back give it some depth. Gloss...

Thanks there have been some really useful replies overnight. Those Taylor Youtube clips were interesting. I guess I am leaning towards a Grand Auditorium cutaway as this is probably best suited to my needs. I already have a cheapish dreadnought which is fine for heavy strumming and knocking around, ...

Yeah it's difficult to decide and I guess I'm kinda going through the fantasy stage (blond or brunette? hehe) a bit. I could choose a different instrument every day... Maybe (hopefully) I'll do a bit more work for them and start building my harem :crazy: I fully intend to get one of their foldable t...

Hey guys, I’ve been spending quite a lot of time in the Czech Republic lately and recently did a bit of work for Furch Guitars which is one of the largest guitar manufacturers in Europe (but still not very big). If you haven’t heard of Furch (sometimes badged ‘ Stonebridge ’ in the past) they make h...

Ahhhh Bombay - yes a crazy place. Must have changed a lot since you grew up! I was last there in 2008 and to be honest - it was a bit much for me... I came directly from Kashmir - skiing in Himalayas - and my body/lungs/ears didn't cope too well with 35 degrees, noise, dust, mayhem.... BUT I have a ...

You're in Gurgaon? You just missed a really nice gig a few days back (Garden of Five Senses, New Delhi) with 6 guitar players! Hopefully we may be taking that gig on the road. I'm playing HRC Delhi on the 23rd with my old band Zero, and maybe a few more with my current project Blackstratblues. Hey ...

Cool, where are you playing? What do you play?

I've been here since March and haven't found much in the way of live music... most bands here are a bit too 'Hotel California' for my liking.
