To each their own I guess. That body looks to me like the kind of injection moulded crap you used to get back in the 70's.

The heart wants what the heart wants, man.

Aluminum makes a bigger difference with basses for me. I can agree with that, but at the same time every aluminum bass player sounds like David Sims, who famously used a wood bass. I think it's just easier to get that sound out of an aluminum bass as opposed to, say, a p-bass, but both are capable ...

I never used any of Izoptope's master plug-ins - I'm sure they're great, just never tried them. But in that vein I highly recommend Gullfoss by Soundtheory. Every time I put it on the master it ends up elevating the mix. It's sometimes kinda subtle but still very much there.

I would never ever own a guitar that has a stupid looking headstock. I know this is very shallow of me. Sorry Reverend, sorry Seagull. You had me here. When I look at a Jaguar, Jazzmaster I feel nothing. And now you lost me. Luthiers will argue that shortening the strings past the nut has some tang...

I said in *most hands* sound like shit. Also a couple of outlier Gibsons. The LP Jrs are cool and also sound good (surprise - no humbuckers) in my opinion. 335s aren't bad either but I haven't played enough of those to form a concrete opinion.

Not really the type of stuff people here are looking for but: Ensoniq SQ-80 - great, weird digital analog synth. Three oscillators, lots of LFOs and EGs. Poly aftertouch! $700 for a PRFer. Elektron Octatrack Mk I - really cool sampler/drum machine. Comes with a really nice hard shell case. $650 for ...

MY TURN: I dont care about GK400/GK800 bass amps. They're fine.....i'm not mad at em....but people seem to favor them and I dont get it. Id just as happily play out of a solid state Ampeg, SWR, whatever. 100%. They're fine, but I wouldn't pick one on purpose. My turn: Gibson guitars stink and in mo...

I would never count on plugins (or even outboard gear) being available in the future. If you finish a mix and want to archive it digitally, bounce it to individual .wav files, all starting at t=0, and with the plugins and/or outboard gear printed to the track. This is something I would do after the...

A fun little example of the indurable nature of digital recording: I had to recall a mix of a song I did not even two weeks ago, and when I listened to it it sounded different from the mix I sent the band. It's been driving me crazy. I started going through the backups that the DAW created for me to...
