This is the same in the guitar industry re: arbitrary product mix. If I'm a shop and I want to deal Fender guitars, I have to sign a dealer agreement which says that I agree to buy $x worth of apparel, parts, guitars I don't want

Nobody is buying or playing those big heads these days. It's super rare to see people buying tube amps above the 50w range even for stage use. They're just too loud and unweildy and weigh an absolute ton. I've been in high en

Why would you need to crank it at all? That amp is gonna sound fantastic at half volume. For grit they make excellent overdrives these days.

This is really only an issue if you're driving 100 watt amps to the brink to get higher gain. You can buy 20 and even 10 watt tube amps that sound fantastic and are much more manageable. Guitar players always think you need a gigantic

The idea that this technology is "the most popular" is incorrect as is the idea that tube amps are unreliable. The katana and fender GT sound "fine" but the assertion that they can model traditional tube amps well enough

100% this. I work in vintage guitars and this is a huge part of it. This why a 62 strat costs way more than a 62 jaguar.

The use of force guidelines in prison vs use of force guidelines for free civilians are totally different. These BoP guards might treat a situation a certain way and not even know they're violating someone's civil rights while doi

Those modellers are expensive as hell and super complex. With this you don't need to dig into sub menus or even need to know how a tone stack works. You just tell Alexa what you're trying to do and it does it. This definitely is v

It's about knowing your market. Is this a Kemper profiler? No. Does it claim to be? No. This is absolutely perfect for anyone total beginner to high intermediate. It sits in the same space as any mid range amp modeller except it's

I want to say this looks like a great product. I was very surprised at how "complete" it seems. I manage one of the most iconic guitar stores in the world and have been selling gear and generally been a gear head for 15+ years. N

My guess is that if you no longer live in CA you're no longer covered under the CCPA so no. It's about residence, not where the photos were taken.

If you're not covered under CCPA or GDPR (most of the world) then you're just shit outta luck. Cool.

What is your prediction based on? I really hope we're not still in this in a year. I work in soho in NYC and still have to go and handle stuff at the shop and the city is crazy right now.

Keep a routine. Get up, exercise, work, read, etc. Stay busy and try not to let your imagination get the best of you.

He had his day and the charge was dismissed and can never be brought back. In the US at least this is a done deal as far as the justice system is concerned.

While true this is way more complicated an explanation than using more traditional concepts. This also barely scratches the surface of useful music theory as it doesn't explain note relationships to one another. A 3rd, a 5th, a 7th, a

I dated someone with a meth problem for five years and would disagree with you. Meth completely changes a person's personality. I think all drugs should be legal and think humans have done amazing things with/on drugs. I've a

The police must stop questioning you. Then they take you to jail until your public defender has time to see you. The courts automatically will assign a public defender to your case if you do not have one or cannot afford one.
