I think that's highly probable. Would love to figure out at least the brand though so I can come up with some options.

Hey all, does anybody recognize this brand/model of guitar? I feel like I'm so close to reading that headstock, but so far. I'm thinking the rounded bout may have been chopped down to that, regardless I still can't I.D. what this started as.

Nice! Yeah that looks dead-on. Thanks!!

Hey guys (particularly Red),

Anybody know what hollowbody guitar Billy Corgan played at the 1997 Grammy Awards for "1979" (video below). I know I've seen that headstock shape before, but just can't place it.

Thanks as always for any ...

Not that it matters, but it's a PS-3 on that board.

Hey S. Thompson, if he's not interested, I'll buy it off ya for $60.

Looks like it may well be the Zoom 9002: http://www.zoom.co.jp/english/history/02.php

Agreed, they also did a "Special Edition" version of the 9002 (can't find release date, only this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200829136128) and a Pro version (released in July 1994 ...

Anyone know of a good amp forum that I could submit some symptoms to?

Here's what's up:

Amp: Fender Hot Rod Deluxe (V2)

Problem: Unwanted Distortion on the clean channel, especially when playing heavy on the low E and A strings combined (like the first 2 notes of a G chord)

Important facts ...

Have we talked about this yet?

Congrats! Its my favorite amp for clean tones that I've used (and I have a JC-120). The drive channel really depends on what tubes you're using though, and I almost always use pedals for that.

The only OLC kit I tried was a failure as well.. I havent gotten around to debugging it yet.

Sorry for the thread necromancy, but I happened upon this article today (not sure why we couldn't find it in 2010): http://drownedinsound.com/in_depth/4139640-dis-meets-the-national

To summarize, in the studio he tuned down his guitar and played it through a tremolo pedal (he uses a Boss TR-2 live ...

Nice dude, also wud up from someone else in the DC-area.

The FX25B is not specifically a Bass pedal, that's a silly rumor someone started about DOD Pedals ending in "B". B is just the revision "number" for the pedal, sometimes it only differentiates cosmetic and not circuit differences. I mean, what does the FX55C stand for then? Clarinet? :)


Anyway ...

Looks dead-on, I guess it does say Danelectro. Red, do you have any pics that show the bridge?

I don't think that says Danelectro on the head, looks like too many letters. Also it would would need a new bridge too.

If you are a new pedal builder, BYOC sells a "Confidence Booster" which is an easy build. They used to give them away for free to new customers purchasing a kit, but I don't know if they still do. The easiest builds they have (in my opinion) are the ESV Fuzz (Fuzz Face) and the 250+ (DOD 250 or MXR ...

For the absolute beginner I think BYOC is by far the easiest. They have a ton of pictures in their build documents and it's really paint by #.

Fender Hot Rod Deluxe

I have a JC-120, and the HRD definitely has a better clean tone and takes pedals better (read: takes Fuzz pedals better)
