@RoryAlsop maybe I'll try the EQ. Thanks!

Is that good? Or do you have any other solutions?

@RoryAlsop so maybe I use compression to lower the volume if I'm using a humbucker and switch the compressor off if I'm using a single-coil

But really I don't understand about how compression works other than "make notes that not really loud.. loud". And I'm confused to find great one without breaking my bank.

I mean if I'm playing with the single-coil, I need the twang, I want to achieve 90s pop sound like what's on Mariah Carey, Boyz ii Men, or something.

@RoryAlsop but isn't that just make that single coil sound less twangy and less single?

@RoryAlsop what's initial gain? I don't wanna mess with the volume knob on the guitar, I'm thinking of using the pedals.

But, I'm also thinking of compression on if I play with the Les Paul, but I don't want to broke the bank. Which is better?

Obviously I can't do that with volume pedal nor increase the gain, so I'm thinking of get a clean booster, but I think that "the sound will be no different with the Les Paul", or maybe clean booster will work?

@RoryAlsop lately, I've been thinking, if I gonna buy Stratocaster (which is single coil and have the volume less than a humbucker) while I already have a Les Paul, how can I balance the volume between those two?

I didn't know that.

Oh.

Like an independent store or something

@RoryAlsop I heard about the store before, but I heard also that some site are making their store for themself

@Dom did yours arrive already?

The Swag thingy, I was close haha

@Dom ah, I was expecting one

@Dom is there anything related about the site's store going on?

im back

heeeyyy

@RoryAlsop ah I must deal with around $19 on shipping again

@RoryAlsop so it's still gonna be sent from the US?

@Hynes I love your ideas with long fermata as up/down votes!

Because if I want get those, I only think about shipping price haha

@RoryAlsop uh about the swag stuffs, it's from the UK or US?

I don't really like chat's yellow background, seems like it's not matching with the blue/grey upper background

and im late for celebrate the new designn haha

I miss it when there are a lot of messages here everyday, or lots of hard hitting questions

Is it just me or this site is over the years, get less attention from public?

why did it took sooo long?

so after few months a designer finally came?

i was busy at school, so here i am

heyyyy

But I can't remember where's the difference at.

I mean I need to approach more tone, more than I could ever get. As far as I can recount, the pole pieces of the pickups for each string got different heights.

@RoryAlsop right-handed of course. If I just spin the pickups, is it like I'm just playing a right-handed styled pickups while playing in a left-handed body?

But I'm thinking if I'm gonna pick the hendrix-style, after changing the bridge intonation and move the endpin strap, should I worry about the pickup's poles?

The regular strat I would pick G&L and the hendrix style I would go Squier

@RoryAlsop @Dom hey, I wanna buy a strat but I'm confused whether I'm gonna hit a regular strat or left-handed strat - hendrix like.

By the way, I'm seeking for indie bands from UK/US for me to listen, something like the Local Natives, Vampire Weekend or something. Any suggestion(s)?

Old fellow of Music SE

I missed @AmericanLuke here, where's he?

After the show, the fans just leave, don't wanna take a selfie or signature.

I wonder why when a well-known musician (not a front-man) came across some place where there's a lot of people, they don't really get any fans coming, asking for signature or selfie.

Our stats are growing, yeay!

@RoryAlsop so you're just watching it?

@MeaningfulUsername I don't really think that the sounds' coming from the pickups, I'm thinking that it's coming from the effect pedals.

@RoryAlsop MetalTech got a gig there again?

And I think about it, if there's another way to make humbucker sounds like a single coil without split hum.

@MeaningfulUsername it feels whole different. But I wonder how do people could make single-coil pickups sounds heavy as humbucker.
