Re: Definitely a guitar thread not keyboard related

Nord is the word. Indeed! As a gigging keyboard, Nord can't be beat, I'm told. But even then, who wants a version 1 now? Or even a 2? I was playing an Electro 2 18 months ago. GREAT organ, CP-70, rhodes, not very good on the acoustic piano, but even that was useable. Really nice keyboard action. Un...

Swap that Phase 90 out for something overdrive-y (Boss SD1 maybe) and I'd rock the daylights out of this board!

Re: Best speaker for high gain peavey

I'd think that a V30 would be good in that. Nice and tight bottom end and clear treble is nice for really clean and distorted tones. If you do a lot of light overdrive stuff then maybe something less agressive?

Re: Wah Wah Wahhhhhhhhhh

I have done one before - new inductor and some cap changes. To be honest though, the biggest improvement was simply opening it up and rolling the pot back so that top end of the sweep was less piercing.

As a near-fanatical Rickenbacker player, I'd like to say WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, THAT FRETBOARD LOOKED VERY NICE INDEED

Line M5. Slowly getting a rig together for my potential U2 tribute show, only need a couple more things and I'll have some sort of functional rig with all the sounds I need.

Re: Rhodes piano pre-amp (pedal builders??)

I LOVE a fender rhodes. you're a lucky chap. Some models have a preamp. If it doesn't you could use a clean boost type thing to juice it, but back in the day they would just plug it in a Fender amp and go. Plenty of tremolo is highly recommended

Re: Show us your pedalboard

Is that single 1Spot powering all the pedals with a daisy chain? nope! DMM is 24volt with it's own power supply, SCF is mains power, compressor was on battery and the hotcake was on the onespot. I do have a weird adapter box that will stop up 9 volts to 24, but it's slightly noisier than the normal...
