Suggestions for pedal purchase

About 99% of the time Im perfectly happy with the sound from my Edwards thru the Rivera. I havent used anything other than the rivera footswitch for a long time, just that and a pitchblack. Our lead guitarist is a pedalboard guy. I got to thinking that I like some of the sounds that he can make. But...

Re: CAPO please help

D'Addario, Shubb, Kyser, Dunlop all make great capos. My personal favourite is the Ned Steinberger-designed D'Addario tri-action capo: http://www.rockshop.co.nz/shop/planet-waves-capo-action-trigger-capo-silver.html I like it because of it's adjustable tension, the low force required to use it, and...

Re: Hats off to the Rock Shop!

Btw the guys that are still there at Henderson are all good too. The South African dude (cant remember his name) has always been particularly helpful.

Re: CAPO please help

I know they're necessary for some things, but I hate capos generally. The only time they seem to work perfectly is for guys who have a roadie hand them the guitar with a capo on, and the guitar has been tuned with the capo on. That's not my reality. Otherwise there is generally a tuning issue that ...

CBI cables

Our mic leads get a rough life. After many years of proel (definitely a limited life span) and planet waves (better, but imo a bit overpriced) we have found CBI cables. They have various levels in the range from basic to pro, and I find the price and quality good. They are made in NY. Local distribu...

Re: Return of the Gibson shocker thread!

When I last got my Jimmy Page Edwards set up, the luthier commented on what a good guitar it is. He said he really liked it. Normally that doesn't mean much cos luthiers say that to peeps about their guitars all the time. To put it in context, I have taken many, many guitars to him over the years, (...
