I'm not a fan of DWs because there are a lot of smaller drum makers out there with great drums for less money. They also have a lot of kits with hanging floor tom and deep bass drum nonsense. Actually, put me down for those two things for Gear I HATE!

Music Man Basses. Respectable looking basses and then they fuck it up by having the headstock tuners 3+1. That look makes my blood boil. Why? Why? Why? Why?

+1 for long (technically 'tall') kick drums. Fuckin' worthless for sounds outside of a pillow-muffled blip. Put a bunch of chrome port hole thingies on the front a la Travis Barker to complete the shitbaggery.

I have nothing against hanging floor toms other than they move around a lot.

Man, I love those knobs too on amps, not that.
I'm sure it'll be the same reason the EVH guitar has two on one side, in that (I seem to recall) they're reducing the length of of the string past the nut for some kind of out of tune/scale resonance that occurs, that fights the correct scale length that's over the fretboard, standing waves etc. yadda yadda. blah blah blah


One of the ugliest guitars ever conceived. Add flame maple to the top for ultimate pomp. That not enough? It only comes in shitty colours.

It's the Homer of guitars.


I argue that %99.9999 more awesome songs have been made on a p-bass or a telecaster, with inherent 'problems' than any of this

A lot of people hate on Klon but I am in temporary possession of a friend's legit Centaur, and it really is a great pedal.

A perfect example of a useful device becoming hated because of people associated with it.

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I've never liked these things...

I don't LIKE them, I think they look horrible, but they work well for me, save having to have a tuner pedal, and you can set them up so the screen is behind the headstock. But only the rechargeable ones. Fuck batteries. At least, fuck non-rechargeable batteries.

Yeah I don't think I know anyone who hates those specifically (sounded great the time I used one) but no pedal is worth what they go for.

I don't like them. I like the idea of them. If someone makes one without the mid hump I'll certainly try it.

I also A/Bed the buffer in line with a lot of cable against the Hot Cake and preferred the Hot Cake. Yeah, I'm that guy. Speaking of buffers. The one in the Walrus Fathom SUCKS. Severely reduces low end.
