You'd think so.

I slept with a guitar once. I was playing it while in bed, and I didn't want to get out of bed to put it away.

The guitar was cold to me though when I tried to cuddle :(

This guitar actually stays in tune, is intonated well, and sounds good surprisingly.

I am gonna put some photocells hooked up to stereo jacks in the pickguard so that your hand movement over the strings while strumming can control an expression pedal. Notice where I had to put the 6th tuner.

that looks cool.

CHOUT, you still rocking the Deluxe Big Muff? I've been thinking about getting a soul preacher sometime, and I know that is the same compressor that is built into the DBM.

I made some pedal demos!

The link didn't work for me.

Any opinions on Danelectro Grilled Cheese, French Toast, Wasabi Distortion or Digitech Grunge?

SpectralJulianIsNotDead

I've played all of those besides the Wasabi Distortion.

I hate the grilled cheese. Sounds like a distortion with a crappy wah on.

The French Toast is cool, but I sort of think it needs a little more volume on tap. I've been trying to sell mine to no avail. Might just keep it and mod it later.

The digitech Grunge is alright. It is pretty much what you'd expect. In your face, ugly, loud, grungy distortion.

A friend of mine told me that the Boss HM-3 can work really good as a bass distortion becuz it does not cut lower frequencies and stuff.
Comments on that?
And buzzo, hm-2 vs hm-3 , any ideas?

my dod grunge is shit,

i like it, but it is bad in a bad way, not bad in a good way, you know,

i hardly ever bother plugging it in, and when i do its for an hour or so, then i remember how crap it is,

you can get much better for the same money,

fuck cheap pedals, get a rat,

well, according to guitar geek swervedriver used the HM-2 so did JAMC's bassist in the later days (he modded it though, theres a quote)

Both of my orders shipped, they just need to arrive, which will take like 10 days...

haha the grunge pedal is hillarious. i just love the old dod pedals they crack me up, their names are just the opposite of what the pedal sounds like...

this is hillarious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WcsV7hQ1V4

kinda like the grunge pedal, just not crazy enough...
