lol...

my band BEGS the organizers to make us bring our own equipment..

then..we charge them at a very high price..for the rental tongue.gif

anyway..next time this problem occurs ...

ask Teko for me number or what lah...i think my band willing to help y'all by renting our equipments..

charge?sure lar cannot F.O.C , lol.cheap lah..maybe RM300 ? (oh yea..no bass amp )

note:i only help those who are in NEED..not a business

RM850 can get used drum set already ..!! lol



anyway..college event suck balls ...because ..uni students / college students..
all of them have the same mentality .."budget " " cut cost" " maximize profit"

so getting sh*tty equipment / no equipment is a very common thing in college events..and no pay
of course the best stuffs are real company events and all..
but I prefer playing for High school event than college uni event...ball night , i.u night..
high school students are big spenders ..they will pay RM200 for a prom..budget big like hell
recently i had a gig in a small high school..and if i tell anybody what equipments we got , and how much they offered /paid us ...it will scare you to death..

i havent tried a messa ....the only ones i tried was markIV or something..gain was abit too low for me

but that day i went to awakening studio...chop the 5150 ..

its scary wei ...i am the type of person who crank full gain on a normal amp ..

5150...i go up to 4 / 10 ...also higher than what i normally play already...

i push it to 6 / 10 ..my Seymour Duncan JB noisy already...

i dun dare to try 9/10 or 10/10

those messa triple lead , rekt ...are like that also ?

Whoa you've tried a 5150! *clap*
Yeah the gain damn scary wei. Apparently In Flames uses only 5/10 gain..and it's a death metal band! *faint*
What was Van Halen thinking?!  tongue.gif
*
yeah seriously...damn ganas !

now i know why EVH's humbuckers are damn low output !

damn sad lar that nite...5150 pawned my TF700 by the factor of 10 ...pawned sans amp by the factor of 9 ..too sad.gif

Oh yeah, before any smart-@sses say "Practice!"  doh.gif ...I know that it requires practice, but I don't want to practice it the friggin' wrong way and get the wrong technique perfectly right!  wink.gif

haha..sounds like something i would say tongue.gif

whats the actual speed of that lick ?

yeap, you are right ..its tough to skip from D to E ..summore 4 arpeggios in a row

i think if i were to play that at a real.. high speed , i wouldn't skip..i would play 1 round

-15---------------------15-----next ...
-----17--------------17( i would mute this part , and play it real fast so that it isn't noticeable ? )
---------16--------16--
-------------17-----------------

anyway..rustreever ...take it to John petrucci's forum ,theshredzone , guitar9 or something lah....

Wrong, Mr Blacktrix!

Their songs transcend the physical coils of existence itself. Look not to the Far East, or to the icy Northlands... but into the deepest recesses of your primal soul. Once you gaze into the mirror of the abyss, there in the depths of utter darkness, a light will shine through the black clouds... the flame of Serpentarius!  notworthy.gif
...of course at this point EQ will ask "WILL SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WTF IS SERPENTARIUS???"

...and the Dark Lord Phantomile, sitting in his castle taller than the heavens itself, will reply....

anyway..anybody heard symphony x 's - paradise lost ? awesome ...i am starting to like metal once again..hehe

btw...

there's a song called "the serpent's kiss" ..and its one of my fav..

lyrics? tongue.gif

Crucifier, spitting fire
See your middle empty prayers
This empire growing higher
To this spider I swear
Shot on service like a raiser
Swimming in a sea of rage
Thin decades, masquerades
All the worth must stage

How devoured
I am proudly a God of pain

Trust in me, for
I will set you free
With the serpent's kiss

I'm putting compromisse
With the serpent's kiss
Oooh

Really? I didn't find that he was 'syioking sendiri' too much. He was just playing his stuff, which is very syiok!
tongue.gif

His touching/feel/execution is damn good, super clean playing and he makes all the difficult-as-hell shit look effortless2dmax.  notworthy.gif
Kinda wished he would have Angra stuff though, rather than songs from his solo instrumental album non stop.
Never mind, one day when he comes to M'sia again with Rafael Bittencourt....  brows.gif

He has good sense of humour too!  rclxms.gif

And yes, I think he loves his country too much. I think everyone was given like some brochure/flyer thingy which is more like a Visit Brazil Tourism thingy...  doh.gif

true also. . . they should do what they're doing in US where you can just buy a pup and if you don't like the tone you can change in 3 days for a pup that is the same or cheaper with your pup. . .

wah...if Malaysia start that system ...

all the companies go bankrupt ..you know our mentality tongue.gif

i think the best way here..is buy used pickups ..if you don't like..sell away la.. smile.gif

again. . . Washburn. . . xD forgot model.  .. check earlier post. . . USD$149.99 if im not mistaken

and damn. . . i want another 7 string. . . may sell my S. . . but the prob is its so heavily modded and i'm not gonna let go my custom DiMarzios. . .

that means my S will have 1 switch that is useless if the person dont have a 4/8 wire conducter pickup xD

i may wanna get a 7 string Fixed bridge so that i can play with wierd tunings. . . just found out that most 7 string jazz masters play with altered tunings. . . some in 5ths / 4ths / open A / open Ab / A standard / B with b standard. . . wierd stuffs. . . but cool stuff is that got wierd chords. . . and some tunings make scale runs super duper easy. . . the 4th tunings have this dorian or locrian run that goes straight with no change of fingerings for all strings. . . wierd xD but easy. . .

and trix! if you dont like washburn. . . get the 7 string razorback xD

what dimarzio custom ?
