Amplifier Worship

VOLVO))) · April 12, 2012, 06:26:43 AM

Sometimes... I don't even play guitar. I just hit a chord and drool over the tone. I think I don't even want to play music anymore. I just want to play an Open E and drift in the haze. Im certain I'll be deaf/DEAD by age 50, so I ain't finna worry about it. We should teach tone classes. How to refine your basic sound, and how to properly work your shit. Always get the proper tool for the job.

Ive been driving for 18 hours... awake for 26ish. Should be fun to read later..

Pretty much what I do now I'm not miserable enough to write actual tunes any more.

who has time to play. This is essentially what builders do: hit a few open chords, observe and listen, tweak amps, repeat.

Give me the list, as far as I'm concerned this is all it takes, all that superfluous noodling is just annoying.

Never buy another tool for the job, always modify the tool you have to do the job. It's cheaper and more satisfying.

must admit, i usually don't practice or write when i am plugged in, i just sit there and zone out to open chords and fuzz or distortion pedals. Man i got this riff that sounds so fuckin good with a lotta dirt and a little phaser that its really all i play lately

and i do love me boris most of the time

Hemisaurus · April 12, 2012, 11:30:25 AM

For the bored check out the Boris vid over at Amoeba Music, they also have an Om one up there, back when Haikus was still in.

I know you bootleg Coors into Florida in a Trans Am for a living. That should be a movie.

I'm an Art Director/Graphic Designer. Started working from home in January and I don't think I can have it any other way now.

Hemisaurus · April 12, 2012, 03:33:26 PM

That's one girlie lookin' office, this is a MAN'S office

What can possibly be better than feel the sound pressure level just hit you with full force?!?!?!

VOLVO))) · April 12, 2012, 03:50:30 PM

The 80s called, they want their CRT monitor back.

Having sex, whilst the sound pressure level hits you at full force. Best do this to recorded music, lest your instrument gets sticky.

I know exactly what you mean. I do that too. It's instant boner time when I hit a downtuned open E chordshape and you can feel my body vibrating in unison to the amp....I Love it and the best is when I'm so loud that my hands tingle!

Hemisaurus · April 12, 2012, 06:49:11 PM
