    No, I even clearly stated that the buyer pays actual shipping and insurance twice in the auction. He initially added $25 because that was the estimate he got. I brought it to UPS that night and paid the $63 never thinking that the buyer wouldn't cover the difference. Some people really are...

    I sold my Ultra on eBay for $1600. I paid $150 in fees and got screwed on the shipping (shipping was $63, the buyer sent $25, but since I had already shipped it, he told me eBay said he didn't owe me anything else). He ended up leaving me neutral feedback (with a threat of negative feedback)...

    Trying to get a Mesa sound for recording the next Ra record

    Ben, the Axe II is a beast to wrap your head around at first, but after a little time, you'll be flying through programming it. Be careful, though. You can get lost in the deep editing with features like tonestack swapping, 3rd party IRs, IR capture, all of the advanced editing like...

    How much gain is on the patches you are using? When I am playing through a patch where full guitar volume produces a nice grind, I can back off the volume to clean up just like a tube amp. Not sure what's going on with your setup.
