Not a new video, but here is a clip of my band playing what is probably our most popular tune, 24 Hour Breakdown, a few years ago. I’m playing the rhythm guitar, leave all the solos to our other guitarist, Liam, who is infinitely better than me,

Heya. Used to post over at The Fretboard. But they hate me. Coz I'm unrepentent and irredeemable. Also play guitar. And bass. And drums. And vocals. This is my band: http://www.bridgedisaster.co.uk/ I also run the Guitar Buddies group on Facebook. Quite a few of us there. Pop on over and add yourself if you fancy.

Hi, I thought I'd start a thread for discussion and sharing Cab IR's. Obviously I'm not suggesting we should share anything other than those which are freely available. So Cab IR's. The latest digital witchcraft in helping us chase the holy grail of tone or just another con? To my ears, there's no doubt at all that changing a Cab IR in a patch on my unit can makee a massive change to the tone and overall sound of the patch. But..... is it really a Marshall 1960x/Mesa/Fender/Ampeg can with an SM57/SM58 on/offcentre - well I have no idea as I've never had the ability to try all the millions of possibilities and options that now exist. To me, if it sounds good, sounds as you want it to, then it's the right thing to use. Accuracy of 'modelling' doesn't really matter to me. Much like the whole amp modelling debate. Oh, I use a Mooer GE200 which I think is extraordinarily good value for money. It's Amp Sims are as good as I need, it's small and really simple to programe and it takes Cab IRs. What's not to like? Anyway, here's a link to a load of Cab IR's I've collected over the years - fill your boots! https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Vyly3Doh4F3_x2xN4VnpvjnqlRrnR4ms

Who has 2 thumbs, and is a guitarist who prefers Basschat to the majority of muso forums..? This guy..! I'm excited by this, and hopeful it'll get me participating again. KotS

Thats not a bad shout and the mrs likes SOAD so thats a bonus

Thanks guys, I'll just stick a few things on and see how it goes.

They're my favourites

For guitars and amps individual threads generally work better For effects people sometimes group them up

Hi there. Yes you can do that, or put a total price for all the items. Cheers ped

I'm learning to play guitar (again) but have decided to stick with the acoustic for now. If I were to get into metal guitar again I would certainly look at Black Sabbath - Paranoid, Iron Man etc. Could be wrong, but they sound like they'd be descent learning songs. Then again, they might be well harder than they sound!

Looks like it's a well shot video, busy right now but I'll try to give it a listen later!

Thanks for the suggestions guys! @TrevorR Wow, I really like the look of those Gordon Smiths. I'd never even heard of the company before! Kind of the point of the thread, I wanted to see if there were any left-field options I was neglecting. That Graduate in FS is seriously tempting

I think it was a bit of a Gibson revival model along with the Invader and Challenger. I got it because I couldn't afford an Explorer, I think it was quite a bit cheaper. it has a 24 ¾” scale length & about 3kg.

Just drag the pic into the bit at the bottom of the reply box Let me know if you want a screen grab to show. Cheers

You could do a lot worse than this one up on the For Sale forum here. Not afilliated to the sale or seller, just thought, “Oooh, that’s nice!”

If the online guitarists I know all sign up then off topic will be just a big list of closed threads
