    I’ll agree on those.

    Oh, and add the Misfits. Those first 3 albums are so great.

    I’d just like to be able to make enough money doing something (whether writing, music, or building pedals or amps or guitars) to support a family and to keep playing guitar til I die. I don’t want to be all about doing big tours, I’d just like to write, record, and play out a bit.

    mainstream punk seems like an oxymoron. . . I can’t stand Green Day.

    BTW, while we’re on the subject: best punk bands (in my opinion):

    Mission of Burma
    The Saints
    Wipers
    The Clash
    The Ramones
    Naked Raygun
    Fugazi
    The Damned
    Gang of Four
    The Mekons
    Bad Brains
    The Stooges
    Rites of Spring
    Nation of Ulysses
    The Replacements
    Stiff Little Fingers

    I’m not super big on west coast punk, I like midwest and east coast punk the best, followed by punk from the Isles.

    there’s not a lot of new guy flaming here, so you should be fine :)

    Personally, I’m on the Voice Box side of the fence. The features just seem more useful to me.

    You could make a loop box that allows for trails. That’s the simplest way.

    what?

    why’d you just copy/paste my post?

    Anyways, listening now. I’m liking Black Funeral

    fuzzes, delays, pitch shifters, envelope filters, reverbs, trem, ring mods

    Kevin Shields isn’t big into any LFO driven effects like phasers or chorus, though trem is OK

    I get my favorite shoegaze sounds with my HOG + Fuzz + verb (plus trem, ring mod, and envelope filter sometimes as well)

    IF I have to have trem, I’m going with floating or bigsby. I’ve got two guitars with floating trems, and they’re pretty cool. I have two guitars with two-piece tune-o-matics, which as cool too. Then I’ve got a couple simpler two piece bridge guitars, no intonation adjustment, and a tailpiece of some sort.

    Floating’s nice because you have a trem if you want to use it, but you don’t have to.

    I will recommend the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 2+ to anyone, it’s a great product. I power everything except for my Frequency Analyzer with it (though its adapter is plugged into the courtesy outlet.)

    You can power any 9vdc pedal, 24vdc pedal, 12vdc pedal, or 18vdc pedal with it with no noise.

    The Cathedral will need a high current 9v out, which the PP2+ supplies. And for the Memory Man (I’m assuming deluxe?) you can get a special cable to get 24v.

    Pedalboards- I suggest you make your own. Some old bed slats or 2x4s and some properly sized screws you can make a grid pattern, then paint or stain it. You can put a couple extra at the back to lean it- then mount a PP2+ underneath, and mount all the pedals on top. I use mounting brackets to mount my pedals, but you can also use velcro. In case of velcro, you can use aluminum construction (which is lighter.) Pedaltrain boards are supposed to be really good. Personally I hate velcro. Gets the back of your pedals gross, the velcro never seems to hold and always comes off, and just keeps your pedals too loosely on the board.
