"My Effin' Life" book

I read the hardback when it came out and enjoyed it very much. Now it is just taking up space on my shelf. So, if anyone in the US would like a hard copy of the book you can have mine for $10 (to help cover shipping). Shoot me a PM if you're interested. [EDIT: book is sold]

Difficulties seeing the side dots on the neck on a dark or dim stage

Yeah. The dots are bright white and can be easily seen on a very dim stage. I use it on some of my older PRS which have dots that don't contrast much with the rosewood fretboard. Obviously, you can't see them in complete darkness, but as long as there is a little light, which is much more...

FM9 Firmware Version 6.00 public beta (1)

What’s your Main Gee-tar!!! And why….

I have guitars with the full humbucker 57/08s and those with the Narrowfields. They really don't sound alike. The full humbucker 57/08s sound like many other PAF-style humbuckers. I'm a fan of them, as they're semi-hot and have lots of character. The Narrowfields have more low end output and...

What’s your Main Gee-tar!!! And why….

What Rick said except my #1 is seafoam (see my avatar). It's basically a Strat with a whole lot more awesome sauce built in. My main preset for my variety rock/country/dance cover band is a modified version of the Stone in Love preset on my FM9. I've found that using the volume knob on an NF3...

Anti-Fatigue Mat

I bought a 3' x 5' mat at my local Lowe's for about $40 that really helps my knees and back. It rolls up and is easy to transport. I believe it's this one: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Project-Source-3-ft-x-5-ft-Black-Indoor-or-Outdoor-Decorative-Utility-Mat/5006060877 I've used it for 10 months...

Gift of Tone 2023 FINAL - Neal Schon!

You're probably right. It's best to wait until Fractal gets this sorted. That way there's only one version floating around. I'll wait until the download link on the GoT page returns the working preset.
