    hehe… i don’t think i want to be a famous rockstar… like really BIG one. It’s so much pressure and so much time away from oyour beloved ones… i’m not that type of a person

    anyway i don’t get it… i live in a third biggest city in czech republic and i just can’t find people to play with. Either we can’t get along personally or there are no people that would want to play even similar music as i do or it just doesn’t work because there isn’t that “magic”… you know what i’m talking about… your a musician :D

    anyway… i must admit that in past few weeks i stopped looking because i’m going to graduate next year and i’ll try to get to university in other city (second biggest… i have some friends there and i think there could be a band someday… ) and to form a band for a year isn’t very good idea i think

    i just want to play… i must admit that i play in a… um… pop-rock chorus… but we almost don’t perform at all so it’s not so cool… but when we do, it’s awesome (like twice a year i think)

    (you know… making music alone can sometimes be very frustrating)

    Congrats! I bet it feels a little like Christmas around there!

    I have this disease too. I told myself I was done until after Christmas, but somehow managed a Metal Muff and a new Maxon OD808. I am trying to get one more too, but I’m not saying what it is until I get it(superstitious)!!!

    yep exactly… i forbidden myself to buy anything else this year (i bought a Big muff and a tremolo pedal recently) and then i saw an ad for White finger for 1/3 of price

    anyway… good selection – congrats!

    my thoughts?

    DUDE, THEY ARE BROTHERS?!

    i don’t listen to nor GD nor Rancid but i know about them (of course… i’m trying to know as much about music as possible) but a few year ago i was actually enjoying the green day… well… that’s surprise :)

    my opinion is that if he ever did, he stopped after release of the 21th century breakdown

    i just saw a Godzilla fuzz… probably the coolest pedal graphics i’ve ever seen! :D

    Devi Ever is just wicked… tasty, but pricey :(

    i’ve got it for two days and i already play the guitar just to hear the sweet full sound :D

    it’s hard to say already what are my favourite settings… but the way i have it set now is

    SQUASH off, LED mode, POST GAIN at noon, PRE GAIN at 10:30, SENSITIVITY at 13:30 and COMPRESS at 9 (it’s not a hard compression as i said before)

    this way set it’s ok with the dirt, BUT then the dirt lacks some of its agressivity…

    it’s all a matter of personal preference though.

    yeah, exactly

    but also – try the Dr.Q after White finger – as said…

    i’d keep the Dr.Q and White finger as close to the guitar as possible (i own/owned both of them)

    and i’d put the muff after Boss OD3… i have a russian big muff and the sound with the TS-808-like OD before it is godlike (HEAVY)

    about the micro pog… i’m not sure… i haven’t tried it yeat so i don’t know how the sound differs before/after anything… but at first i’d probably put it right after compressor to have the clearest tracking possible

    yeah, i get it… that’s why i said “increase” because i know that the hiss is already present :)

    the only situation when it is a real problem is when i stack dirt for solos… because i don’t think i’ll use the finger for distorted rhytm stuff – i don’t know, i like it more on clean or solo

    i don’t play live, so it’s not a problem… but i can’T imagine how bad it would be on a stage (i think i’ll explore it in summer)

    Ok, so i got it today and it seems to be pretty cool :) some settings are nice and natural, some aren’t… however, for the money it’s unbelievable :)

    the only thing that annoys me is the increase of hiss… but i guess it’s typicall issue with the compressors (it makes a perfect sense)

    Straight to the amp.

    yeah, well that’s it probably

    does your amp have an effects loop (i don’t know fenders very well)? if it does, try to connect the delay through it and you’ll see if it gets better (i bet it will)

    yeah, well… it’s the well known fact that usually, you should put delay AFTER the overdrive

    not always, but with more overdriven sounds, it can be important

    where is your pedal connected? in the effects loop or straight into the amp?

    ive never head of shoe gaze. thats pretty wierd

    dude a few weeks ago you asked what is Oceania ;)

    with the delay i stand for the SMMH… but let’s think about your recommendations

    do you need alot of different sounds for a reasonable price? or do you want for example good analog and good digital delays?

    because if you need alot of different sounds for a reasonable price and you want to keep the space taken at minimum, you can grab a Boss DD-20 :) it’s good for that

    if you don’t need that many sounds and you need a good digital and analog sound, i’d go for EH stereo memory man with hazarai plus for example a Malekko 616

    Well i’d keep those Muff and GF pedals and just buy the cathedral and stereo memory man with hazarai… and i’d be done :)
