What a great forum this is! "I've sold my Orange, loved it but it wasn't right for me, now I have a Fender" And the response is "They're great amps!" Just about any other forum I go on would be full of "OMG Fender sux ur gay lol" and similar :) Agreed! That's why this is one of only 3 forums I visi...

Greetings all, long time no talk! Today I traded my Rocker 30 Combo for a Fender Blues Deluxe (1994, I believe, if online reportage of amp-dating are to be believed), and a bit of left over cheddar/scrilla/cashola. I drove up to Beltsville, MD (I truly hate driving anywhere within 40 miles of Washin...

Apologies if this has been discovered and posted before... but this is strange. I don't know whether to be totally appalled, or just kind of okay with it: http://www.iheartguitarblog.com/2009/09/news-gibson-releases-jimi-hendrix.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; http://www.musicrad...

Also, when he wants to, The Edge can rip a pretty epic solo.

But he keeps it simple, and makes no apologies or excuses for doing so.

OK, the album is still available! One of the dudes from Circa Survive posted about it, so we decided to leave it up. Download it while you can, I do not know when it'll be taken down. Here is a link to the album in MP3 format, for those of you wanting it that way (and this link doesn't have the .wav...

Oh yea, duh! Thanks for listening, so far!

Oh sheesh, I didn't upload it, so I didn't realize it wasn't in mp3 format. I'll see what I can do.

Hey guys, I've mostly been lurking recently due to a new job, and various busy-ness.

My band is giving away our album for free download today until 7pm EST.

If you download it, I hope you enjoy it!

My humble first try to get some sound of the Orange 40th anniversary Custom Shop on the net. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECrHe6so9WI Should figure out how to get a better sound quality cause the camera takes away a lot of the low and mids. Very cool! Although, and I'm not being sassy or anything...

So far there have been PLENTY of Orange Bass Rig shots. You are getting a lot of screen time. Very cool that the guitarist and Kate herself are using Vox. To be completely honest, though, the TV mix is awfully synth heavy, since he seems to be playing/mimicking the bass line for a lot of the song......

Am watching right now, and am thoroughly looking forward to the performance.

Were you fortunate enough to meet Adam Sandler and/or Peter Saarsgard? Or is the backstage a clusterfuck, and nobody gets to meet anyone else?

AWESOME! I used to have a MIJ Jazzmaster that is the ONE piece of gear I regret selling (I was, like, 17 and it had problems beyond my means, before I knew what to do, etc.). One suggestion would be to play it and get to know it before you go ahead and do all of your planned alterations. JUST IN CAS...

The new Guitar World with Jimmy Page, The Edge and Jack White has a Dual Terror ad on the back cover, which got me all excited. Then I realized there had been no announcement, and that it was most likely just preemptive advertising to stir up interest.

When I had my BoR, I really liked it at first. I was using it in front of a Tiny Terror, and I could get some really really cool sounds out of it. But almost ALL of those cool sounds were when I was playing at bedroom volumes. Obviously, this also has to do with the nature of the TT. Other than that...
