through a

Sounds pretty beefy with the band and gets quite phat when I kick in the Big Muff!  :cans:

[antonio_hancolotykevitz]

Cool nice rig Patti! How often do you use the delay with the bass?

I only use the delay in one of our songs at the moment. I use it with the big muff and its creates a cool distorted swirling kind of droning sound.  8)

[Guest Donnie Darko]

do you really need a dark fret-board? hmm... looks cool all mono-colour

[ajay]

All finished!

The colour of the fretboard is a byproduct of it being made from ebony, which happens to possess the tonal charactaristics I was after. The only "light coloured" wood used in fret boards is maple, which I didnt want to use in this guitar.

Anyway, Enjoy!

Dont EVER sell it either - that thing will pay for your retirement!

What ive got at the moment:

Cole Clark Fat Lady 1 12 String

Cole Clark Lap Dog Horseshoe

Fender FR - 50 Square Neck Resonator

[ehsan]

I'm swinging a Gibson LP Junior with an extra P90 in the neck at the moment. My fave guitar was the SG classic which had the P90s as well, and the lesser sustain and weight without the carved top - so this is much the same but smaller, with the baseball bat neck and with less pointy bits to impale myself on in 'those' moments. ;D Overall, a really nice and nimble little axe. Plus the vintage white looks really nice.

[freak-guitar]

Guitars: - Caparison Horus (Yellow Sand), Taylor 414ce Acoustic, Jackson DK2, Peavey Wolfgang, Ibanez s series 7 string (got a Caparison 7 string Dellinger on the way from Japan)

Amps: Laney TT100H head, Laney VC50 combo, Marshall 1960A cab

Also, got a bunch of stomp boxes and effects, as i'm sure everyone else does.

Apart from that, that's all i need! 8)

[kahlani]

I haven't got a guitar (other than the guitar hero controller! haha) but I do have:

Flute: Buffet

Alto Saxophone: Fontaine (pretty much the worst cheapo brand out there!! Ah well, I know now.

Clarinet: Ashton (second hand)

and finally

upright piano: Alex Steinbach an absolutely beutiful instrument, though it doesn't compare to a Yamaha upright

I'm looking to buy a new Flute soon. I wish the flute i have now wasn't my first one. It's a good brand, but my inexperiance in my earlier years has made it conk out sooner than it should have

[music_equals_sanity]

Piano: Can't remember the name but it was made in Germany in the 1780's

Violin: 2004 Ragetti Handmade by C.S Kun (WITH PICK-UP)

Hi Darcy,

My first guitar was a Takamine Jasmine electric/acoustic.  It was a while back, but I really loved that guitar, and looking online now - it's not an expensive guitar.

Currnetly, I'm playing my late 70's Dean Flying V.  I got it for a scandalously good deal from a friend who'd given up rocking and devoted himself to Jazz.  He'd done a lot of modifications to it - including a dubious choice to hollow out part of the body to accommodate a tremolo system.  Aside from that sad fact, it's a beautiful beat up guitar.

I play it through a Crate VTX 350h into a Bag End 2x12 cabinet.  Contrary to common wisdom, that head has gorgeous and responsive clean tones, and the drive channels are creamy and scorchy as I need them.  As I've moved away from playing more traditional rock and metal, and towards more atmospheric and dynamic post-rock/post-metal stuff, it's really been there for my changing needs.

Guitars:

I have a samick 12-string acoustic (pretty rough, but not too bad a sound), a 'tempo' electric guitar (from like the 70's or something ... isnt really that good of a guitar, just bought if for a project), an ashton electric (has a great sound to it for a cheaper guitar, gets the job done), a yamaha nylon string acoustic (missing a peg, so its really only a 5-string at the moment), an old nylon string acoustic (not sure of the maker, but it was my grandfathers/great-grandfathers), and a washburn acoustic electric (I love the sound this guitar makes, and it wasnt too expensive). My dad has a Takamine electric/acoustic too, and it is a great sounding guitar!

Keyboards:

I have a Kawaii, and a Yamaha. Both are reliable keyboards, and get the job done.

Amp:

I have only got the ashton amp that can with my ashton electric, and for a small amp, it puts out a really good sound!

Violins:

Not sure who the maker of either of the violins are, but one was my great-grandmothers violin, and it is absolutely beautiful.

Saxophone:

Again, I do not know the maker of the saxophone, but apart from missing one of the pearl key inserts, it is in immaculate condition.

Clarinet:

I have just recently been given an Artley clarinet to do up as a project too. This clarinet was very badly water damaged, and the corks crumbled off at the softest of touches, but since then it has been re-corked, and is now in a very playable condition.

Trumpet:

My dad bought a Yamaha trumpet from cash converters for $50, and has fixed it up to being playable too.

That's about it for instruments that I have (and a little about what my dad has got too) but there are also the instruments that my sisters have that I didn't mention here!
