Whats your axe?

[Bubblecraft]

For anyone that plays guitar. Whats your axe?

At the moment I've a Les Paul ZW Buzzsaw, a ZW Camo & a ZW ivory bullseye. I'm on the hunt for a white LP to strip back & design like a ZW Rebel. (That excludes acoustics btw)

All this played through a Digitech GNX4 & Marshall AVT150h with a 412A & 412B cab. Run a Shure LX4 wireless system which is great!

I loved my RBX. Sold that & got a Fodera. Sweet tones. Some nice gear there mate!

Is that the one that Victor Wooten plays? If its the one I'm thinking of it's a beauty

Would love to get a Rainsong Carbon acoustic. Some lovely tone through that & ideal for alternate tuning. Still a bit pricey at the mo. I don't grudge spending £3k on an electric but I do grumble spending £1.5k on an acoustic lol

That the one mate. Wasn't custom built for me. I got it second hand & imported from the states many years ago

I tried an Alvarez the other week. Best acoustic I've ever had in my hands, but 3K, no chance. Taylors for 7k, stupid money

Drool...Taylor! Some sound of them but I just cannot justify that kind of money. My brother has a Taylor. He got it when he re-mortgaged his house. You'd have to to afford that!

What pedals / FX board do you use or do you just stick with the head presets on the JCM?

Maybe if the lottery came up but till then I'll happily make do with what I've got. I think the wife would be asking me some pretty searching questions if I was to tell her I wanted another guitar

 

[Bubblecraft]

I had to cut down on guitars. I just had way too many. I'm liking my Zakk collection at the mo & once I've done my rebel, I'll be happy....well for a bit lol

I was using pods with the pedal boards for both lead and bass work but got shot of them a while back. It's not often I use the amplification much now but the Ohm bass head has a cracking eq on it and I get a nice percussive sound out of it. For lead stuff I just use the sound the head gives me.
Nowt much wrong with the old Zakk Wylde gear is there?

Well the actives make a huge difference & reversed tail piece stringing makes all the difference when soloing. How long you been playing. I've been doing guitar....bloody hell, 25 years lol. I also play piano, drums, sax, flute, bagpipes & banjo but nothing beats the guitar!

I first picked up my brother's guitar (while he was out because I wasn't allowed to touch it hehe) when I was 8 so that's 41 years ago, I've also tried piano but didn'tlike it drums, what's not to like about hitting things and making a loud noise, violin..yuk but like you saynowt beats a nice loud guitar

It's pretty good cause everyone that works with me plays an instrument & likes the same styles. Makes work go that little bit smoother. It's not the first time I've had an acoustic in the van & pulled it out for lunch while my labourer is banging on empty tile adhesive buckets & my plasterer is singing!
