Title: Amplifier Worship
Post by: VOLVO))) on April 12, 2012, 06:26:43 AM
Sometimes... I don't even play guitar. I just hit a chord and drool over the tone. I think I don't even want to play music anymore. I just want to play an Open E and drift in the haze. Im certain I'll be deaf/DEAD by age 50, so I ain't finna worry about it. We should teach tone classes. How to refine your basic sound, and how to properly work your shit. Always get the proper tool for the job.


Ive been driving for 18 hours... awake for 26ish. Should be fun to read later..

Pretty much what I do now I'm not miserable enough to write actual tunes any more.

who has time to play. This is essentially what builders do: hit a few open chords, observe and listen, tweak amps, repeat.

Give me the list, as far as I'm concerned this is all it takes, all that superfluous noodling is just annoying.

Never buy another tool for the job, always modify the tool you have to do the job. It's cheaper and more satisfying.

I know you bootleg Coors into Florida in a Trans Am for a living. That should be a movie.

I'm an Art Director/Graphic Designer. Started working from home in January and I don't think I can have it any other way now.

Having sex, whilst the sound pressure level hits you at full force. Best do this to recorded music, lest your instrument gets sticky. ;D

I know exactly what you mean.  I do that too.  It's instant boner time when I hit a downtuned open E chordshape and you can feel my body vibrating in unison to the amp....I Love it and the best is when I'm so loud that my hands tingle!

Also, giggling after the camera fell was pretty funny.
