dude im probably gonna die in like 2 years anyway what the fuck is the point of me being miserable and unable to do the one thing i was put on fucking earth to do

i bought myself a vintage mesa boogie transatlantic 2x12 combo, an mxr 10 band eq (vintage mesa boogies have super distinct crunch but the eq control is basically nonexistent), a basic boss cs-3 compressor and just found a good deal on a like-new line 6 DL4 delay modeler (those things are so fucking cool and ive wanted one forever); im adding all this to my pedalboard w/ waza blues driver, MIJ boss chorus pedal, wammy pitch shifter and behringer digital delay pedal (i make grunge/shoegaze music); would love to post a pic of my setup when its all done

im still playing drums on a sound percussion (starter drum kit) with like one upgraded cymbal lol, so literally the whole kit sounds like shit, but the one cymbal sounds amazing, now i basically have to upgrade the kit

found a guy selling a drum mic kit for $300 that comes with x3 sm57s and a shure b57 or whatever (dynamic kick mic) and i already have two overheads for the stereo cymbal sound i'm hoping to get

yeah i wont be able to go to the hospital for a while but who fucking cares dude im not gonna live forever. this shit makes me so happy. i want to start a nonprofit record label one day and all of this shit is an investment

follow your dreams

sorry for rambling like a lunatic lol

Devi Ever Dark Drive cause it sounds like Bongripper (they used it on Miserable), or a custom Dunwich Fuzz Throne that I have modded with a dark switch, 3 band EQ, 6 clipping options, depth knob, and boost.

Favorite amps: MATAMP MATAMP MATAMP ANYTHING MATAMP, Sunn Model T (just get a close tho), Hiwatts, and Marshal JCM800

Favorite guitar - EGC Standard model I got a few years ago

someone is selling a marshall JCM2000 super lead at my local music shop for $900, i dont know much about marshalls tho. what's the dif between a JCM800 and JCM2000?

[-] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

JCM2000 has different voicings, more gain, more channels. As such, much more gain available. The 800 can get a good crunch on the high input, but you need pedals to really get it going. That said, it still has that classic voice from the 80s, and is one hell of a loud amp. There are also a few different models of JCM800.

The JCM2000 tone isn't something I much care for. Owned an 800 for a few years, and it was FANTASTIC for punk back when I did that.

The guitarist I play with in Dødsdømt uses an 800 so yeah lol

Hell yeah! They're awesome amps, if I didn't have the Matamp then that would probably be my main one.
