Was in the mail but just turned up now-the two 15" black widows i snagged from TM and righteous G.C JVVP picked up and sent down to me.Thats what i dig about this place,feels more like an actual community rather than a facebook page.Have donated to forum of course,about all that was left in my bid budget but now im working will try make another in the new year.

Caline stuff is actually quite decent, had a few of their pedals, I'd imagine it is isolated...

Will test and review when I get it. At $68 shipped, if it works ok and is isolated, it's a bargain.

I had a Caline power supply a while back and it made more noise than some of the pedals. It got thrown in our red bin

Strings strings strings. They are the elixir of good tone.

I have no solid evidence for any of the following:

The CP-05 was probably a rebrand/clone of a joyo, which was just a daisy chain in a box.

The P5, it looks like they might have cloned the CIOKS DC5, which if they've done accurately, could be decent.

Just got a Caline CP-01 from AliExpress - it cost NZ$42.47 (incl. freight) and took about 4 weeks to arrive. The same CP-01 on TradeMe is $89.00 (incl. freight) so a good saving. Haven't tried it yet but will keep you'll posted...

Got a player series p-bass on the way. It’s in the Tidepool colour. Any thoughts on pickguard colours? Leave it as is or change it up? I’m wondering if a tort guard might be too dark.

I'd stick with white, mother of toilet seat or maybe a mint green? Thats a lovely colour though :)

Yeah, it does look nice. I think it’s a bit lighter than lake placid blue

Finally get to post something here: TC Flashback on the way. I used to have lots of pedals back when I played lots of guitar. Now I have no pedals and hardly ever play guitar. Therefore, I reason that the key to more guitar playing is owning more pedals.

Nearly pulled the trigger on this, but the shipping's just ridiculous:
