Which nuts would they be then; a new Ozzy band or are they to be found in the trouser department?
Probably of the "pea" variety ...

Topic: Desk tape copy - "Neon Ceiling" live at the Harbourside (Fremantle) 19 (0 replies, posted in My local band and me)
This is a copy of the desk tape (back in the days of tape!!) that we got from one of our gigs in Fremantle - this was recorded back in 1994, and has audio quality that you would expect from that time.
http://neophytte.mine.nu/audio/mp3/Neon … 101294.mp3
I think we were intending to use a couple of these songs on the (never released) album, but the quality wasn't up to scratch ...

Re: NGD. Not driving can`t stop me. (5 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
It's hard top tell from the pic, but the neck looks pretty straight - if it hasn't been played for that long, usually I'll lemon-oil the fingerboard (depending on it's dryness, maybe twice, a week apart) and if there is a large space between the strings and the 12th fret, tune it down to 'D' for a year or two, (so instead of EADGBe, go DGCFAd) with light strings, if the neck is buzzing, tune it up with heavy strings ... the old Yamahas also make good slide guitar with open tuning ...

A lot of drum patterns are the same for a lot of songs:
(bass) (snare) (bass) (bass) (snare) with an open high hat doing 8th notes above it ...
I nabbed the pic from this site, which I then looked around and there's some interesting stuff there ...

I've got two of these controllers:
Bass with GK-3B attached (although here it's running into a wireless then into the Line6 into the amp):
And a pic of my mate's kid playing the PRS controller:
Same guitar, but running as a guitar, not synth controller, when I was testing out a KLd tube amp:
Somewhere I have some *really* old photos of the GR system up on stage - on an old 110 film camera, but it was big and bulky and it only make it to a couple of gigs ... the controller is a nice guitar, but heavy and a bit awkward to play ... I'll see if I can find the pics at home ...

Re: BOSS SY-300 Guitar Synth (13 replies, posted in Electric)
I was going to convert this 24 pin controller to a 13 pin controller; it's not a hard mod to do, but I got bogged down in wanting to get a mural painted on the front - which ended up was going to cost more than the guitar, and the upgrade kit, and the GR55 put together:

Forgot I also added a GK-3B to my Hohner bass:

It was rather a tight fit:

Re: BOSS SY-300 Guitar Synth (13 replies, posted in Electric)
The SY300 has piqued my interest for a long time - I bought one of the original G-707/GR700 systems in the 90's, and played around with it, but it was far too big and bulky to take to a gig on a regular basis:
http://www.joness.com/gr300/GR-700.htm
Then I invested in the 'new' GR-55 system about 2 years ago, it's a great, compact alternative:
http://www.joness.com/gr300/GR-55.htm
I also picked up a cheap GR-S:
http://www.joness.com/gr300/GR-S.htm
All to fit into the PRS I modified to be a 13 pin hexaphonic pickup guitar:
http://neophytte.mine.nu/photo/2011-09- … K-Kit-GT3/
Having a synth that doesn't require the special pickup would be great, but I've already invested a bit in the 24 pin/13 pin systems ....
