      Thanks xtcclassic! That's a nice tidy board you got. I spy some Pigtronics and Radial. I have some of their pieces. I also have and use that same Keeley Compressor Plus! I have 2 of them, one on each board!

      Nice guitar build! I used to have a Peavey Wolfgang Special and can't understand why I let it get away.

      The rotary and tremvelope pedals have my attention. I would like to incorporate those effects some time.

      Good eye spotting the Fuzz Probe but it's one of the pedals that's gonna be coming off of that board. I just cannot get anything musical from it without so much effort. I don't think it gets along with my guitars with active pickups. Hmm, maybe I'll try a guitar with passive and weaker pickups first.

        Well, “musical” is not exactly what comes to mind when I think of anything Fuzz-Factory-related.  😃  More like apocalyptic pandemonium, but fun.

        I had a Wolfgang Standard stoptail back in the day, and I’ve always regretted selling it. The neck was amazing and the guitar was so alive and resonant that it won me over despite me not having a high opinion of Peavey and not being an EVH fanboy. I found someone selling NOS Peavey Wolfgang bodies, necks, and cases so I jumped on the opportunity to get another one at an affordable price and build it to my specs.

              The Wolfgang project is done and it’s fantastic.

                Nice! @xtcclassic and @AdamJ

                Here's a couple used guitars I scored.

                The first, an ESP LTD Michael Amott Sig has been hanging on someone's wall since it was bought new. It still had the original set of strings. Um, but not anymore. I polished the frets, put on fresh strings, and adjusted the trem.

                The second is an ESP LTD Elite MII. This guitar may as well be brand new as it is mint. It needed nothing done. The strings even feel and sound new.

                    Still woodsheding trying to git gud. Here's an example from the video series I'm doing. I started this video project as a way to document how I play the songs I know so I can reference them when I forget a song or a passage or tricky parts.

                    It's very useful to me as the number of songs that I need to remember for the metal cover band I'm in and also favorite personal songs. I will post some of my cover band if anyone's interested.

                              there's something about a fretless bass that makes it really sexy..

                                    Thanks @chiverus, my only merit is to own it but I love it ! Needs some practice to play in tune, and it hurts my right fingers compared to a pick, even with flatwounds 😃

                                            I guess pics will have to come later, but I'll just list some gear for now:

                                            Guitars:
                                            1959 Gibson ES-355 (Cherry)
                                            2004 Fender Telecaster Deluxe (Cherry burst, converted to esquire with Peter Florance Voodoo TE59 in bridge)
                                            2006 Fender USA Telecaster (Sunburst)
                                            2015 Fender American Standard Stratocaster (White w/ mint pickguard)

                                            Guitar amps:
                                            1954 Gibson GA-75
                                            1960's Silvertone 1481
                                            1978 Fender Deluxe Reverb

                                            Basses:
                                            1975 Gibson Grabber (Natural)

                                            2002 Fener Mark Hoppus Precision (Seafoam)

                                            Bass Amps:

                                            Orange 115
                                            1962 Ampeg B-15n

                                            Effects:

                                            Bass is just plugged into the ST-300 and then into the amp. No frill, no fuss.

                                            This list would have been drastically different pre-covid. Gotta pay those bills, though.

                                            Wants List:
